    Then may I make a suggestion? Less typing, and more thought behind what you type. It is seriously difficult to decipher some of your posts. That's not intended as a mean spirited criticism-- it's been noted by others here.

    >>But I will NOT apologize for calling it BraviGAYmo!!<<
    That, however, is mean spirited or, at the very least, thoughtless.

    I don't agree it's "catty".

    The reason people post on these boards and others is, presumeably to COMMUNICATE their point to others.

    If you are deliberately making your posts unreadable, you obviously don't want people to understand what you're trying to say.

    I wonder why they'd even bother expending the energy to type, if that's the case!

    LOL.

    I'm dumbstruck. It's surprising to know that there is something at that DisneySea place that you actually despise.

It makes me even sadder that it's replacement will not be another totally original show, but rather a third version of an already popular show. Yes, I'm sure DisneySea's version of Fantasmic will be great, and I'm sure the Japanese will love it, but I really feel bad that a park that started out with nearly all original attractions and shows is slowly turning into a clone-o-rama. Sure... the theming continues to be really wonderful and thankfully appropriate but I regard DisneySea as the very finest achievement of the Walt Disney Company as a whole, and it deserves better.... because that park has raised the bar to a level that is quite clear now will probably never be surpassed again. That it's not evolving with brand new immersive rides that are complete originals to the park is quite sad.

    Dude. Seriously. The problem is not your low opinion of the show, it's the use of "gay" as though it were an epithet - the worst insult you could think of.

    Come on - you're better than that.

    In fact, if I never have to think about the show again, we can ALL be happy!!

    LOL hans, yeah I soooo loath it. I've seen it up close and person 2 and a quarter times. I TRIED, it sucked hard everytime. And the quarter time is the last time I tried to watch it for the 3rd time and it so painful I just left at the beginning and got on Indy instead. I shouldve done that the other two times. I cant wait for, um, that show, to be done and Fantasmic comes in. Now THAT will be a real show ;).

    The DisCo is having to deal with a schizoid park right now. There are major, very high-dollar improvements, either completed, under construction or still on the drawing board, sitting next to the junk of the past.

    I'm sure the World of Color show will pull in people who'd otherwise not have bothered to visit DCA. But I can imagine such guests standing in the viewing area, looking out at things like the looming new wing of the Grand Californian Hotel, the Paradise Pier Hotel, the Mailboomer tower, the old tacky facades jammed up against the ones for the new games, etc, and think "oh, my! This lavish, expensive water show is in the middle of an environment that has all the fantasy and charm of a tract neighborhood in Orange County!"

    But the DisCo has to start somewhere, and making up for the blunders of the past isn't going to be easy, simple or inexpensive.

    I've read that among young people in particular, it's very common to use that word as a putdown. But you have to admit the word "gay" -- because it has a frivolous or silly sound about it (certainly since it originally was defined to mean no more than unbridled joy) -- is rather, um, gay.

    But that said, there are clones for a reason and F! is a show that park deserves bar none. I think instead of that OTHER show, people will eat this one up. They have in DLR and WDW, so I dont see how it failing there. And considering that TDS night times shows have ALL basically sucked (how does that happen??), it would be great to FINALLY get a show where the consensus is its amazing!! We will see!
