Bah! I love that ride… why not just make a new Haunted Mansion? They used to have that Alien Encounter at Magic Kingdom that *really* was scary, and then they replaced it with a stupid Lelo and Stitch ride… that blew. If they wanted something scary and good… they should bring back that Alien Encounter.

In reply to talnhess. That would make a little more sense, if it were true.

In reply to Rodney.

“I would love to say we are doing the movie, it’s live-action. It is going to be in 3D. And we’re making the Haunted Mansion the most haunted place on Earth. And we are doing it by being true to the spirit and the art and the aesthetic of the original Imagineers that created the mansion.

We are not returning Eddie Murphy’s calls.”

I understood that this was about the ride, but the quote has some misleading parts is probably what sekngucing meant. I can relate.

But Del Toro redoing the ride is going to be great.

Sorry Rodney, but you’re misreporting this. It’s a movie, not another ride. It’s a new feature-film that will be based more on the original story behind the Haunted Mansion ride than the Eddie Murphy disaster. If you look at the press release on the same page that you linked too on /Film, you’ll see that:

“Guillermo del Toro surprised the 6,500 fans gathered today at Comic-Con with the announcement that he is currently developing a new film for The Walt Disney Studios based on the classic Disney theme park attraction, The Haunted Mansion.”

Oh crap my pants yes… If the hatbox ghost is able to be part of the story finally… I’d be the happiest little mouseketeer this side of the Rockies.

Maybee the attraction will have some film footage by the Toro-Man in 3-d to go along with the ride.

In reply to sekngucing. "While reports yesterday were saying he would be Producing a new version of the film, it seems that’s not quite true. He is helping them reimagine the attraction at the park." I don't know how that could be more clear.
