And C3PX, they made changes to POTC long before the movies came along. Notice the women being chased by pirates are holding food now? Because it wasn't PC for them to be chasing after wenches anymore! They're after the food now! One of the other pirate's racy lament about a certain woman in red is gone too.

Adding three Jack Sparrow figures to scenes in the ride is hardly ruining it. And nobody misses the buttless pirates added in the 80's(?) in what was originally an empty spot at the end of the ride anyway.

At least these rides are still around! Some of my faves are gone forever. Journey Through Inner Space, (the first DL ride I remember going on in 1971, replaced by Star Tours) and the People Mover that once passed over the ST area, where a Stormtrooper took aim at you from the shadows. They put in a freaking pizza joint where the Moon/Mars rocket ride once was. And don't get me started on Captain Eo! :P

At least they brought the subs back, albeit with a Finding Nemo theme.

I know all about the previous changes, but changing the pirate dialogue and making the winches carry food were pretty subtle. There were many more changes than that even. It has changed a lot over the years. Like I said, it isn't like Jack is in just one scene, he is all over the place in his bright red bandana. You even hear him talk. He has now become the focal point of the whole ride. The ride was big enouhgh before to spawn a movie, why do they feel the need to recon it with movie characters to increase its popularity?

I remember the people mover and the Stormtrooper in the shadows. Wow, I remember hearing they shut down the sub, didn't know they brought it back with the Nemo theme. The days of Disneyland having rides that are not based off of movies is quickly fading away looks like.
