Is a dark ride definitely not happening?

All’s quiet on Cherry Tree Lane (but yeah, it’s likely to be a carousel if this ever actually happens)

All signs point to this being announced on Sunday.

As far as i'm following, it's still a Carousel.

 

[Imperius]

Explain.

Remember those carousels where you grab rings? This one you have to take a spoon full of sugar every round.

I’m sorry.

Was not the rumor that this will be a double-decker carousel? If so, at least it will be unique at WDW in that regard. Don't see myself ever riding it, however.

Martin is being tight lipped about it, simply saying all will be revealed Sunday. Last I can trace the rumor to it was a carousel and I think at one point a double decker may have been talked about, but not sure. Either way, my expectations are well in check for this.

It's a nice little addition b-ticket level addition, nothing more.

Alene and I both love carousels, especially excellent ones like those at Seuss Landing & Kennywood. A Mary Poppins carousel is just about a perfect attraction for that small plot. We will definitely ride it if it happens.

Epcot just needs more stuff to do. Period. Even a carousel would be nice

I for one can't wait for a hit of acid before riding it.

This is what you want after drinking around the world and going on a ride that spins you around.

I don't like beans, but otherwise there is never a bad time to eat this

So it seems that it may now be an Alice in Wonderland attraction. Interesting. Guess we'll see.

I thought (whichever IP is used) was going to have AAs and being like, a very advanced carousel haha

This will be the first true outdoor attraction in Epcot which is insane.

One of the pieces of new concept art, the one with the creepy dancers, clearly shows a new Alice in Wonderland Garden. Tea Party table on far right, throne in background, etc.

Here it is, the tea party is easier to see in the full video:

I'd much rather the U.K. attraction be a ride -- even an A/B-ticket like a carousel -- than some kind of an "experience."

And really, if they want an Alice tie-in, how expensive would it really be to clone Disneyland's dark ride? Surely a drop in the bucket relative to the overall budget of this Epcot makeover.
