Overview
- The ride reopened to guests on November 14 after a short November 10–13 downtime to convert its screens from 3D to 2D, with the story and physical layout unchanged.
- Early ride-throughs report brighter, sharper visuals and fewer motion-sickness complaints, though several reviewers note a loss of depth and immersion versus the original 3D.
- Disney plans to add new props and refreshed lighting in the queue and ride spaces over the coming months as part of the update.
- Operational changes reflect the switch, including the sealed 3D glasses pickup area and updated park materials, and a similar conversion is underway at Disneyland Paris.
- Interest surged at reopening, with a posted 95-minute wait at rope drop that moved faster than advertised according to on-site reports.
