    Normally the OC Register is fairly pro-Disney, while the LA Times takes the more cynical and suspect tone regarding Disneyland news. But now the OC Register is running stories on the front page of the "Local" section that call DCA "ill-starred". (I'll have to look that one up, but I assume it's another way of saying "troubled" or "problematic".)

    For SoCal locals, do you think DCA is getting a bad "word of mouth" buzz going? Or is this just a biased and overly harsh newspaper story?

    Well frankly TP2000,

    I think the media is just quick to dis DCA with its low attendance now. The park has a few setbacks of course, but even with the "Spy Kids" movie incident, it just really shows...........wait a minute, isn't there a SPY KIDS 2 coming out THIS SUMMER?? WHAT THE HELL.....what year is this??????




    ;)
