They said I can't have what I want. So much for that letter to Disney! They were much too blunt!!!

There is no place in the MK they can do that without removing a classic ride? We had a short trip so we were rushed, and as much as I wanted to experience the WDW version of Snow White, the line was too long and we opted to do something else. I was so hoping to experience that next time we make it to WDW because the DL version is, um...., lame! I've heard great things about the MK version though. So sad.

I suppose there's a 7th grader somewhere in Ohio who might actually believe that type of response, but everyone else with an IQ over 80 can see they are telling you to go jump in a lake, and then dry off and book another trip to WDW. Gotta hand it to Disney, they really have their robo-response software tuned up well there. It's sickening and insulting, yet fascinating and impressive at the same time.

I consider them both about the same, and LAME is a VERY accurate description! The WDW version may have a slightly more cohesive story, but the DL version has a better facade, better theming and is scarier. Losing Toad was a major loss. Losing Snow White is a major nothing.
Originally Posted By davewasbaloo I like the DL version, think the WDW, and Paris has the best version of all. But meeting hot women after standing in line for hours will be replacing it. Hmmm, sounds like an adult entertainment convention. Where did I put my dollar bills? And I wonder if they accept Disney dollars?

But the fact that the company has to field letters about the removal of a dusty Fantasyland dark ride also makes this kind of robo-response somewhat justified IMO. I can honestly say there's not a single attraction whose closure would inspire me to write a letter of protest. If I wrote a letter to "Disney," I would expect a similar response.

An indoor meet and greet could be accomplished anywhere in the MK. Disney could place a Princess meet and greet instead of those little shops around Beast & Belle's castle as originally proposed for the Fantasyland restoration project. DL's version is far superior over the WDW version. That probably goes without saying since virtually every ride/ attraction at DL is far superior than it's Florida counterpart.
