I think that it’s a GREAT idea to have a Mary Poppins attraction at Epcot. However, I think that Disney will really be taking the EASY road if they do a spinner type ride. I really think that a Mary Poppins dark ride with dancing penguins, and horse races, and chimney sweep dancers would be AMAZING!!

I have my doubts.

I agree with @Acamm, if they’re going to do it, do it right! I know for myself i see the UK Pavilion as almost entirely miss-able! Other than the music at the back I’d spend no time at all. It doesn’t really have an attraction in the way that the majority of the others have. Mary Poppins has such a great story line and as Acamm says, there’s just so much more you can do with it and Since the removal of the Great Movie Ride, I can’t think of any other references to Mary across the whole kingdom?

I think it’s high time UK got a ride. Though, I would love for it to involve the Doctor.

But since Doctor Who is not Disney related – though it should be…. I think a Mary P ride would be awesome! It should totally follow the song. You get to ride through the song with Ms P and Bert and the kids.

I’m not sure. I wonder if they have the space and I wonder if they really want to keep adding rides to the WS. I think the World Showcase has plenty of appeal without a whole bunch of rides in every pavilion, but then I don’t have kids so…

I will say like others mentioned, if they do add a Mary Poppins ride I hope it’s done well and they don’t take half measures due to space or budget constraints.
