Why not shrink down the huge swamp scene, or remove some of the castle hallways? If they were actually concerned about it, they easily could have fixed it while the ride was still in the design stage

The WDW face characters are notoriously bad, so this is probably the best girl they had to play Cindy, but she still isn't Disneyland material. Ah, Disney World, how funny you are even though you don't know it.

So quick to judge based on one picture, yet failure to see the big picture which would reveal yet so much more eye candy, when compared to the MK's older section of Fantasyland, which mercifully is being restored here and there. That's not to say that OLC could do much more considering the money they make in that property. OLC has been able to accomplish so much more with their Fantasyland with the simple use of trees, topiaries and flower beds, something that the MK's Fantasyland sorely needs. Look at the empty esplanade between PhilHarmagic and the new castle walls. I mean.. I know the average WDW guest is huge in the waist but they don't really need that much empty space in a 'so called' premiere Disney park.

They really should have done something there - even if it was just some landscaping and small trees. Same goes for the plaza in Epcot where the fountain stage is. Just a huge concrete area with no shade or anything. Hot and miserable to walk through - and it's just ugly. They need to take down that stage they never use, and put in some flowers and trees!
