Just for fun I wanted to list off some of the other rumored iterations of this long in-development Mary Poppins project. Originally, in the 2010's we heard about an outdoor carousel, then an indoor carousel (avoid rain), then maybe some kind of double carousel indoors (Disney found the hourly capacity was still too low), then a projection teacup ride (made people sick), then a cardboard cutout teacup ride (pictured throughout video), then it was paused, then it was rumoredly cancelled. Which iteration would you have prefered, if any? Enjoy the video! 😁~Brayden

[@SpeedSloth]

I like the double carousel idea. Can I be out there and say they should of done a trackless ride that starts off as a regular teapot attraction and then each of the cups goes off in to the crazy Mary Poppins style adventure

[@cbtink2]

None of them. The carousel makes the most sense theme wise, but there is already a carousel in MK. I'm glad they didn't do it at all and give us something so sub-par. Spend the money fixing/updating what needs it, until they are actually committed to projects at the level of imagineering we expect from Disney- from start to finish.

[@jennycraigadventures3314]

I think a carousel ride with a 360 screen around the outside and “barrel” screen in the center could create some Runaway Railway-type magical scene changes and would work well, disorienting teacup effect.

[@luma4902]

I feel like Mary poppins deserve better than any of that i like the idea some people gave of it of starting as a normal tea cup or carousel and evolving from that to a dark ride

[@chrishamby86]

Ultimatley if they made it like riding a carousel animal on a dark track as you move through various scenes that would have been the best. Lots of various animals to get on and I assume if it was continuous the capacity would have been quite high like Spaceship Earth (obviously SE is the ultimate capacity eater

[@mjgrant298]

I always imagined this as starting on a carousel, which after a few turned would then have the individual horses leave this as a tracked ride through various animated scenes, ending on the carousel for disembark / next loading. That way you could have two separate carousels for loading / unloading to speed throughput

[@Wickedfan219]

Yes! That would have been so much better!

[@MickeyViews]

Love that idea

[@peteronnasch6341]

IIRC there was an idea Tony Baxter originally proposed for EPCOT which did exactly that, starting on a carousel with the horses move on through a dark ride. It was sadly not developed further, but it would have been awesome. Hopefully one day the WDC will be more courageous again.

[@jonathanchilders7335]

Just embarassing! I mean, if that is all Disney could muster up PRE-COVID budget wise for one of their crown jewel movies, then Imagineering is in truly dire straights indeed! I hope this public embarassment, among many other things, shows Iger and the board they really need to bring Imagineering and the Parks back to prominence.

[@jlafunk]

I honestly don't think Chapek understood the product, nor do I think he ever understood what Disney fans would consider "value." He just wasn't a good fit for the company and ended up making everyone mad.

[@cab8866]

He was set up to fail. Iger had all his woke people in place.

[@KayCeeTX21]

Well and bc he sought to dismantle every single thing that had any value to “legacy fans” he found so useless. His refusal to acknowledge any of the values previously held dear to any disney employee. His treatment of the peasants also known as cast members. His constant brown nosing of wealthy elites. His unprofessional interaction with anyone who had the nerve to call him out on his deplorable behavior. Then there was the use of the company to insert himself into politics and push his own agenda on to any family having anything to do with any disney product. He was the worst thing that could ever have happened to disney as a company. In less than three years he annihilated the trust and loyalty of guests the world over. Bob Chapek not only did not understand the company he was running, he clearly hated and had no interest in the company culture that had made Disney the best of the best for generations. He was an atomic bomb from which Disney may never recover.

[@sassymouth2056]

Chapek did exactly what he was cast to do. Disney needed a villan to take the heat for the price increases and service reductions. Ursula created a path for Ariel to become human; Chapek played his part perfectly.

[@KayCeeTX21]

@@sassymouth2056 or something like that. The shareholders must be THRILLED with the drop in stock prices. I know I’m not. I’d have rather my expensive stock continued to earn me money. It was all a big cluster…mess. Had Chapek kept the woke nonsense and elitist pandering to a minimum it would have kept him his job for a bit longer.

[@2004hiperjavier]

Since Bob Chapek got fired from the old CEO, I believe that a new unnamed Mary Poppins Returns attraction with a new Teacup spinner ride are still coming to United Kingdom Pavilion at EPCOT!!! And now, EPCOT's construction projects are not finished yet!!!

[@josiahgoes9633]

If Marry Poppins is for some reason presenting such a challenge for them, there are plenty of other UK based stories that we would love to see. Alice in Wonderland, or even a different iteration of Winnie the Pooh. Possibly 101 Dalmatians? Each pavilion should have SOMETHING !

[@christopherthedisneydude6621]

I would much prefer it to use the Peter Pan ride system but be on horses. It would be a dark-ride horse race attraction through the world of Mary Poppins. The horse would be below the track and would be slightly above the ground, but you would not notice it. The horse would have the ability to rock back and forth as well and could use the Flight of Passage breathing technology. The Peter Pan system would make it so that it looks like your horse is really running on the ground, as you would not be able to see a track. The track above you could be colored to blend in or could be a pure black color to blend in with the ceiling.

[@Wickedfan219]

That would have been so much better!

[@waxifari5528]

This is all anyone has ever wanted and has been painfully obvious way to execute an MP attraction since the original film.

[@dorkydiy3875]

👏 Yes that is exactly what I was thinking. I have always wanted to get on that carousel horse and ride through those famous scenes in the original movie. How could you not think of that first as a ride? It could be so amazing especially if they put in a penguin tea shop you could eat at also. I mean a tea cup ride I don’t really get it with all of the imaginative scenarios in both of those movies to use. It’s like if someone said I have a great idea let’s remake a dumbo ride for Mary Poppins and you could hold on to a kite. Or I guess in business terms what is the easiest and cheapest way to slightly entertain guests throw in some teacups and change the setting equals a completely different ride.

[@demetreasandrews]

I've had this thought as well. The queue is the Banks' home leading to the chalk drawing. Then you go to a giant carousel that rotates a few times until the horses leave the carousel and goes through the drawing/rooftops of London

[@christopherthedisneydude6621]

@@demetreasandrews Yep, exactly what I was thinking. I was also thinking they could do a pre show similar to the idea you had, or use the system used in the Cosmic Rewind pre show. Bert says to close your eyes and think of the most wonderful thing, the lights turn off, the walls lift, and you are inside the painting with an animatronic of Bert and Mary sitting by a tree. The painting idea is another thought I had. There are three paintings on a wall and the one at the center is of the park. Bert talks about each one, and then you walk through the center one. The last pre show concept I had would be with the bowl from Mary Poppins Returns. The bowl starts spinning, the walls use projection mapping to show wind and flowers flying around, lights go off, walls lift up, and you are in the bowl from Mary Poppins Returns.

[@nadinenieves7752]

Well that stinks. I hope one day the UK pavillion will get an attraction worthy of what the imagineers are capable of

[@brentgreenhalgh5637]

Well, I feel a hell of a lot better about it being canceled now. For some reason, I had it in my head that it was going to be a dark ride. That being canceled would’ve bothered me a lot.

[@amandacasey5701]

I had a memory pop up and it was from 4 years ago about Disney pushing dirt around for a year on Tron. 5 years later we have Tron. In the same time with a pause on building USO has built 2 new hotels, Velocicoaster an it’s building 3 new hotels and a whole park. The pandemic has become the excuse for Disney while USO said hold my beer.

[@cbtink2]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@BrickTrek]

It took them 8 years to do Tron (for the second time) and A DECADE for Moana's splash play area, so God knows it would've taken them 15 years to build teacups (for the 6th time)

[@JamesonThomas24]

Parks need small attractions, to really round out the guest experience. I do believe modern Disney is about marketing each attraction to its greatest exterior potential, verses creating a smaller experience that thins crowds and allows each guest to experience more attractions. I think the Mary Poppins spinner would have been a fun little addition, but from the announcement, I was expecting an E ticket. I do wish they would add smaller little experiences here and there, like small dark rides or whatever. Idk

[@luma4902]

A new Dark ride would be much better than this tea cup spinner in my opinion.

[@RFLEEZYUBZ]

It’s sad they feel they can’t do small dark rides anymore… Even along the lines of Winnie the Pooh but with a smaller footprint like in fantasy land.

[@douglasfreer]

I would’ve accepted this if it was in a symbiotic relationship like Alice and Tea Party are at Disneyland. I would’ve loved it to be a ride based on the original Mary instead

[@marcusstrinidad]

Epcot really does need more flat rides… not everything needs to be E-ticket.

[@rmdewberry2482]

This is so key for families with young kids and non-thrill seekers.

[@Yoshimongo]

That's it? That's the lost attraction?! THAT WAS JUST A CHEAP TEACUP RIDE! CHAPEK BETRAYED US!

[@nonsensology]

Mary Poppins may not be my favorite movie, but I think a dark ride along the lines of what Tony Baxter had envisioned would have been great (and much needed). Ideally, I would have loved an entire mini-park themed to various UK stories. There would a little area with the Mary Poppins attraction, an Alice in Wonderland labyrinth, a Winnie the Pooh themed picnic area, and a Peter Pan fountain like the one found in Kensington Gardens.

[@dwood2342]

It always seems like D23 is the place for Disney to announce new projects just to keep the stock from tanking, then when the stock is up, they tank the projects to put it back where it was, instead of going further down to begin with

[@repboy1]

If they had said we are adding a tea cup ride based on Mary poppins , and then adding the street it would have been better than expectations. Disney constantly has this fantastical art work releases way in advance and fail to deliver .

[@michaelrizzo615]

When I think about Mary Poppins, I would think a better “ride” could be tea time on the ceiling. It could be a sing a long where you’re buckled into chairs on the ground and they elevate for the song and ride

[@juanitajones6900]

I'm not exactly upset over this bit of news. One would think that Disney Parks could come up with something better than another version of the spinning Mad Tea Party cups. And it would have been based on the 2018 flop, "Mary Poppins Returns"?

[@jeffmgrossman]

A Marry Poppins ride should have been, using the same show space size, a mix between a merry-go-round meets mickey and Minnie's run away and the tiki room where as the marry-go-round moves, the environment changes, and characters (birds/animals) come out. The merry-go-round horses can turn around so that everyone faces the inside or outside, or backwards, the top turns into a sky, the surroundings are digitally projected. Would be a first of its kind and not too thrilling so family could enjoy it. Sort of like the next evolutionary step of a merry-go-round in general

[@Pmmmm123]

Idk what’s more sad, the fact that it was just a teacup ride, or that the budget is so tight they had to cancel a teacup ride..

[@tonycommodore8929]

It won't be done because of the cost, BUT, given the success of the Beauty and The Beast attraction in Japan, THAT is the type of attraction Mary Poppins deserves in EPCOT. Imagine starting off on a slightly smaller TeaCup spinning platform and having your cups spin off the table, travel behind the 2D scenery and into fully fleshed out scenes from the beloved original movie. The tea cups still work because they were in the I Love To Laugh scene. There is so much that can be done. And I'm so over Disney making excuses for not being DISNEY.

[@CarolCap131]

Excellent points! When I saw the picture all I could think was” why couldn’t they even at the imagineering stage, do something as fabulous as the beauty and the beast ride in Japan”. I just wish they’d spend capital funds on attractions not building bland hotels. It’s almost like they know they don’t want to compete with epic universe so they’ve decided they’ll capture the hotel market and just lhope people stay at Disney , rather than I drive when the go to epic universe.

[@chamber20projects]

I just looked up the beauty and the beast ride, based on your comments. Damn! If Disney World dropped bangers like this more often I'd go so much more. I WANT to go. But they don't do much to inspire me to go.

[@joysharpe1500]

I love Epcot, even though I am almost 70, I still ride everything! But I would enjoy seeing a few more rides in this Park that are geared towards little guests but fun even for grandma!

[@keymasterpete8996]

I was hoping for an attraction showcasing the various pieces of British literature that Disney have borrowed from over the years. Something fun and educational.

[@jshplock]

This would be fantastic

[@danalexander6049]

Wow, this looks like it would have been a giant waste of money. I remember hearing about a Mary Poppins umbrella spinner ride that was developed for Disneyland in the 1970s. I feel like that would have been a kinetic, less expensive option and been more on-brand for both the old and new versions of Mary Poppins.

[@yvonnewhite729]

I agree on the idea someone else had about using the Peter Pan ride experience but with horses is a good idea as a Mary Poppins dark ride.

[@meganruchwatercolors7186]

I am so upset! Mary Poppins would have truly been magical! Once again Disney keeps ruining the magic!

[@dynabeen2]

Hard to say which is worse, the amount of hype for such a minor attraction (nice, but minor) or the fact it STILL had to be cancelled.

[@wheeledwarriorsociety2013]

I was hoping for a Peter Pan style ride with a Mary Poppins style umbrella with an improved rider load/unload setup. In fact, they could go one step further and make a preload area for disabled children with accessible gondolas that would allow the ride to have continuous movement and not have to be slowed down for boarding. Just one of my dreams lol.

[@realestateunplugged6129]

I'm 100% for Mary Poppins dark rides of higher end tickets, BUT, MAN, this looks like a BEAUTIFUL, a/b ticket! Hope this comes to EPCOT's World Showcase!

[@hopejordan2997]

I think it would have been awesome if you could ride the carousel horses around like in the original film. I always thought that would be a cool experience. But the fact that Disney can't afford a basic carnival flat ride is a sign that they are in BIG trouble.

[@TrippyCommentaries]

I remember none of us were too optimistic that this project would ever happen. Then sure enough it was canceled. At least they are opening the new water walk-through attraction... I think its going to be an awesome new addition to Epcot.

[@TrippyCommentaries]

It also didn't help that the new Mary Poppins movie kind of flopped

[@kathrynbrodeur8986]

I feel like one of the reasons the Mary Poppins attraction was canceled was due to it being based on a sequel that wasn't the most popular. If they bring it back in the future, it will probably be rebranded on the first movie (like a dancing penguins in the park )theme.

[@pibbitybibbity]

Disney is working very hard to fall farther and farther behind Universal.

[@johnmceleney1092]

U think a company of this size should have had all costings/ fundings locked in (with a bit extra)before they announced it. It would be nice that all the announced attractions that were cancelled would finally happen as promised and not as a cheaper version. Like what is happening with the Moana water experience at Epcot

[@TreadwellJay]

It is indeed baffling. Building the facades, at least, would cost very little compared (as you say) to already-sunk costs, and even if they didn't build the ride, it would still be good space for meet and greets or something revenue-earning like a restaurant or store.

[@TylerAnderson-mh9yt]

I would like to see something like the “Topsy-Turvy” house. A stage show featuring the chimney sweeps. Lots of possibilities. Thanks Braydenn

[@davidalan6701]

Would’ve been better off doing a carrousel based on the original. It would’ve been cool to turn it into a dark ride with individual or paired carrousel horses as the ride vehicles, but if they just wanted to do a spinner, I still think carrousels would’ve been the way to go.

[@michaelparker2844]

Dark ride with songs and scenes from original movie would be so much better. Even a version of Mickey and Minnie Runaway Railway themed to Poppins would’ve been so cool.

[@luma4902]

Agree

[@Mkidcraft]

Looks like it would've used the Toy Story Alien Saucer ride Trackless system they have over at Hollywood Studios. It spins like a the teacup ride but the cars can change between which circle they are in. Or it's 3 spinning circles in a larger spining circle.

[@TheWASHINGMACHINEBOY]

i think it is good this ride was canceled because guests would be underwhelmed when they see the ride is a teacup ride. i also think the tiana's bayou adventure and central area of epcot projects are eating up the most money and not leaving enough to start other projects like the spaceship earth update, so when those things are finished, they might be able to start those projects

[@sandrayates4645]

I was also thinking it is probably a blessing this project was canceled. Perhaps in the future they’ll come up with something better, more deserved for such a classic movie (original Mary Poppins)!

[@alexharrison808]

WOW.......all of that buildup for a "teacup ride". BRAVO PAYCHECK BRAVO🤦🏾‍♂️ But all joking aside, yeah it sucks that the Mary Poppins attraction seems canned indefinitely and while the original concept would make it a nice for families, honestly it feels kind of a letdown. Many speculated an Omnimover, Trackless, Suspended, etc.....but this is? Now that I'm thinking back to the 2019 D23 Expo it definitely feels like a huge wasted opportunity today now that we know what the original concept was going to be. But hopefully Imagineering can bring the project back and maybe plus it up to make it BETTER.

[@SamanthaFl]

That's a shame. Seems like a missed opportunity. Not much to do in the England pavilion than shop and have a pint. Same with Italy. Hopefully they will rethink this after they finished the construction at the front of the park. I was hoping a trackless ride with a mashup of the highlighted animated scenes from the OG Mary Poppins and Mary Poppins Returns.

[@srayj]

[@SamanthaFl]

[@pluralofjame]

It would have been cool if the entrance to an outdoor park with the porceline/hand drawn art style was through the Banks' house, and in the park was the tea cups ride and some other nice attractions, with the main one being a carousel where the horses take off like in the first film. If they wanted to go E-ticket, a peter pan on steroids attraction where you're flying on an umbrella or kite and go through some musical scenes. Love the facade, hopefully we get something like it!

[@EdHarrell1]

I actually like this concept for WS. I think all of the pavilions need rides and they don't all need to be something big-budget like Remy. This would've been perfect. Rhine River cruise in Germany, bullet train tour through Japan. There's not a lot to do in many of these place other than look at stuff which is fine for me but my grandson is BORED in Epcot.

[@ScottG91]

Agreed, Epcot does nothing for kids. When we went last in 2019. Once we did frozen, saw the little mariachi/coco show at Mexico pavilion. Plus not having a great nightime show. We called ot early and went back to the hotel and had a pool night.

It’s so hard to hear that Disney doesn’t have money for anything when a family of four would literally spend close to a thousand dollars for just one day in the park. This isn’t sustainable on either side! At some point just having all the same things and changing the “festivals” is going to grow old and people will stop attending. I was a die hard Disney fan but we are saving our money for Universal next time. It’s really sad. I feel like they pushed all their imagineers over to Universal.

The amount of money they spent to acquire 20th Century Fox was absolutely staggering--it dwarfed the Lucasfilm and Marvel acquisitions, and it was all borrowed money. Now they've got all this debt to service. They really are in the hole.

[@valeriemcdonald440]

I like tea cup rides and I also would have thought a carousel would have been nice. More important to me is the theming around the area. I'm not a huge fan of the concept art. I think an outdoor carousel with horses and penguins from the original movie, using the sidewalk chalk art in the art panels around the top would be an easy and elegant looking addition to the pavilion.

[@jcd110681]

While Mary Poppins deserves a ride, a knock off of an already existing ride is a no go for me. They have the space for a truly magical and heartwarming ride for Mary. Imagine being greeted by a Bert animatronic that sets up the story and then popping into a chalk drawing for a Jolly Holiday with Mary and ends with you soaring like a kite in the skies as Mary flies off. Doesn’t that sound better than teacups!?! 😊

I wish disney would create new types of rides. Magic Kingdom already has a carousel and teacups.

Mr. Chapek sort of overpromised something, that would not come to fruition. At least with the last D23 Expo, much was blue-sky concepts, which Disney didn’t really overpromise for the future. People came away a bit disappointed, but might as well be disappointed upfront, than to be disappointed later, with anticipation of what should/could have been. If something does come, it will be like those overinflated wait times, that gives you that false sense of victory.

I just don't understand why they thought it was a good idea to have a highly themed teacups ride. The point of that ride system is to spin yourself as fast as you can, but then you get motion blur outside the teacup, so you wouldn't be able to see any of the theming.

[@chadvergine7317]

The ride should of been a trackless sort of vehicle that looks like a carousel but broke off into a horse race. It fits with the movie. Disney could of done something like Universal did with Hogwarts Express illusion with the brick wall doorway and made a chalk drawing stairway to the ride. Since Disney was going to go with the newer movie and not the original im glad it got scrapped.

Judging by the images, it does look like a lot of the creative effort was going to be spent on the queue/preshow, which would have been pretty cool. But a teacup ride...really? Glad Chapek is out, and holding out hope that we start to see some of that magic return with Iger.

I think guests were going to pass through an expanding fireplace which is a cool effect!

[@coastermadab]

I am glad this never happened. Marry Poppins deserves more.

Having a toddler, I think this would have actually been a nice addition that we would have enjoyed together as a family. 👏With the being said, hyping it up like an E Ticket attraction was not cool. 🤦🏼‍♂️ Really enjoy your videos. Thanks for all the work you put in

The scary thought about cash flow is that Disney is committed to buy the last third of Hulu next year for $27B. They will not have Money to respond to Epic Universe for years.

I think the 2d trees aren’t necessarily to be cheap. In both Mary poppins movies they go into 2d artwork. I think they were trying to replicate it

[@beckyinnola3613]

Dear Disney, No more spinning rides please! That said, I would like to see a ride based on the original Mary Poppins movie with ride vehicles like Peter Pan or ET (at Universal) designed like flying horses. Peter Pan does not have any fancy sets and it is a short ride, and yet, it always has a long wait. People love it and they would love it if Mary Poppins were like this also. Lastly, the Peter Pan show building does not look very big, so I don't think it would take up much room to build one similar in EPCOT. That's my opinion. Thx Brayden!🎠

[@BRKS1999]

I mean I can’t express how bad this would have been received

[@yvonnewhite729]

The Peter Pan ride would be a good as a Mary Poppins ride too.

[@CattyWompus.]

Shameful for Chapek to be hyping people so much for as close to nothing as possible. Before the pandemic at that

[@Kev-O33]

Should rename the park Epconstruction

[@cbtink2]

Love that 😂

[@GLJosh]

Epcot is in a constant state of becoming, coming soon.

[@ZebraLens]

​@@GLJoshI like the new park title:▶ _"Epcot: Constant state of becoming, coming soon"_ 😂😂😂😂

[@George_vv]

If they changed the ride to be something like a HUSS Breakdance ride they probably could've gotten the projection idea to work.

[@bruce7986]

Tony Baxter had a fantastic Mary Poppins ride, concept.....as he has been asked to return from retirement. Disney should engage with him to bring his idea into reality.. see D23 KZbin where he talks about it

[@dougSS24]

I’ve been to Disney twice the past two months and can honestly say they have gotten extremely cheap. The new stuff is bare minimum. Even rise of the resistance is good but they could of did even more with it (like working troopers). I was there on my actual birthday and Disney did nothing. Just sad these days.
