🚨 HOT TAKE: Disney is finally updating Carousel of Progress… and honestly? It’s LONG overdue. 👀
For a ride built around the “future,” the ending has felt stuck in the past for years. Families today look different. Technology looks different. The world looks different. And Disney finally seems ready to bring that final scene into this century. 🙌🏽🏳️🌈👩🏽💻👨🏻🦽👵🏾
And here’s what makes this even bigger…
Carousel of Progress is the ONLY attraction in Disney World that Walt Disney himself personally worked on. 🏰
Which is exactly why this conversation has fans SO divided.
Some fans will scream “don’t touch a classic”…
But Walt Disney literally believed in progress. That was the whole point. 💭
The LAST major update to Carousel of Progress happened in 1993 😳
(Yes… before smartphones, streaming, social media, and half the people riding it today were even born.)
So if Disney updates the final scene to better reflect modern families, technology, and diversity?
That’s not ruining the attraction.
✨ That IS the attraction. ✨
The real question is:
Can Disney modernize it WITHOUT losing the nostalgic magic we all love? 👀
👇 Drop your opinion below:
Should Disney keep Carousel of Progress exactly the same…
OR is it finally time for the future to catch up?
