Besides, the focus on U.S. parks is irrelevant, DisneySea is run by a completely different company. Duh. Kid, you don't even understand WHY I keep linking to that pic, do ya.

Originally Posted By Mr X Uh huh. And they're gonna put them WHERE? The park is already near complete dude. Which attractions are the going to rip out? Maybe Al Lutz can help ya investigate! In the meantime, I'll just point out the fact that the attractions that have been added to DisneySea since the grand opening have been absolutely perfect in terms of location and theme, keeping the park cohesion most excellent as it was on opening day. I'll not say that Raging Spirits is a fantastic attraction, I'm not a big fan, but the placement and theme are spot on. Same with Tower (UNLIKE DCA). So, maybe you're correct but if so it would be a RADICAL departure..and I know many of the creators of DisneySea, it was kinda their baby, and I'd bet they would be pretty upset...not to mention what moron would want to tinker with the most financially successful non magic kingdom park on the planet?

In the end, this will be fun and all, but just more of the same. Disney could have done so much more with both parks but chose the easy route.

I'm NOT a gusher for Christ sake, I do like the additions, but by no means do I think it's a 'complete' park in any sense of the word and has said it many, many, many times I don't exactly love all the pixar/cartoon crap...I just accepted it . Again, its happening at ALL the parks now except TDS and DAK for some reason. Don't like it, but that's life and the stuff is well themed at least. At least the park has REAL rides now compared to 2001 where the biggest ones was a steal coster and a simulater. Holy crappin Christ DCA sucked lol.

One of the scenes showed his wife attending a luncheon hosted by a wealthy Beverly Hills woman. That person's house was SCHLOCKY, the epitome of tacky! It might just as well have belonged to a checker from K-mart who acquired an overnight fortune and decided to design her new digs. It also made me think of people in general who have a truly distorted sense of reality (or taste). Someone similar to the scary lion-face lady or, well, the variety of people who've rated DCA as a perfectly fine theme park. And, yes, I'll say this again: None of this has anything to do with money, tight budgets or bottom-line thinking. As for whether the new DCA will be a Ritz, hotel or cracker, time will tell. But anything is better than what DCA has been since before and after 2001: Motel 6. Okay, that's a somewhat harsh metaphor. How about a nicer, fancier Motel 6?
