Originally Posted By PeterPan1313 Throughout the years, Miceage's April Fool's column tried to add some levity to site, but this year, the Miceage crew has posted a bitter April Fool's article mocking Disney, slamming the princesses, and even putting firearms in hands of Anna, Elsa and Olaf. Nobody on Micechat is "congratulating" the Miceage crew on their April Fool's ideas, and they blocked people from commenting on the article, quite possibly to prevent sarcastic comments about how many of Miceage's updates sound like April Fool's columns themselves. What once was a Disney fan site might as well change their name to "BerryAge" as obviously the article writers love to pump-up Knott's Berry Farm's image while slamming Disney, and calling for the removal of various Pixar/Disney attractions through their bogus rumors that Star Wars Land will lead to, at various times the destruction of: 1. Toontown 2. Tomorrowland Astro-Orbiter 3. Autopia 4. Nemo 5. Innoventions All the while, Miceage has also refused to report real information to their fans regarding Star Wars, and official remarks from Iger, leaving fans scratching their heads. Something tells me that when they start construction on StarWarsLand (probably starting in the Simba parking lot this year!), Miceage will refuse to post construction pictures. It seems to me that the more Miceage is against an Imagineering idea, the more successful the idea will ultimately be, meaning Miceage is sort of the anit-Walt in terms of understanding what the public wants. Miceage slammed Pixar in Disneyland, and nonetheless, such attractions are very popular, not the least of which is Carsland. If Miceage is mocking a Fantasyland expansion in the former site of the Fantasyland theater, then certainly such an idea has not only merit, but will be something the public will love. Is Miceage secretly run by Knott's Berry Farm or Universal? We might never know the truth.

Originally Posted By PeterPan1313 I think most fans of the Disney parks would be perturbed by what often is Miceage bashing Disney. This April Fools column is more of the same. Miceage should realize that people other than middle-age passholders without kids visit the parks, and that people of all ages enjoy many of the rides they want demolished. Something just feels so wrong with regards to Anna and Elsa hold firearms, obviously Miceage believes that kids don't read their site! I think the worst thing is that other sites/media for a while were buying the "Demolish Toontown for Star Wars Land" idea from Miceage, thank you, no, Miceage! It is important that people understand that 80% of what Miceage reports is simply the editorial board taking shots at Disney and the parks.

When StarWarsLand opens DLR will be getting yearly pilgrimages from Star Wars fans, and future Star Wars conventions. They'll sell *way* more Star Wars merchandise than stuff targetted to the longstanding SoCal APers crowd, in a way, Dusty and Friends probably don't want to see Disney succeed in a big way, and they probably don't "get" the Star Wars franchise so they won't be able to report on it effectively even if they wanted.
