I agree with some attractions and a lot of the entertainment.

Different time periods - different economy if you can't seem to grasp those concepts. Grow up, unless you really are like 10. Also whose to say they won't reverse clone some of those parks ? Most of the new parks being built focus around a MK concept, in case you could not comprehend what others have been saying also.

Lotr is an epic, and movies outstanding, but my guess is Potter reaches a wider audience - especially kids than Lotr could. I would love a Lotr land or gate - but my guess is most kids would not.

But it's quite evident that the spike in IoA's attendance is evocative of what a REAL immersive, and technologically sound E Tic can do. Not to mention the detailed and intricate land surrounding it. And seriously...Chill? Please? The overly zealous and rude style of our posts is getting tiresome, and I rather like posting and discussing here WITHOUT feeling like I'm being yelled at when I simply have a point to prove.

I never said Potter would close down WDW? I think you're looking for points in my post that don't exist. <<I would agree SW is likely the only other franchise that size and I am a huge fan..but do you , like me, feel George is hurting that franchise some in recent years ?

That being said, The Clone Wars is a good show(at least it was, this season sucks so far).

Originally Posted By barboy2 ///barboy you are the one who's messing things up here./// Wow! First there's hot air coming out of the Windy City and now, predictably, flatulence is emitted from the "Bean Town" region. I'm just thankful that we have these strong Santa Ana winds down here in Southern California to counter all of that diffused polluted air coming from the East.
