I was down there last Thursday and to me it seems that they are doing the least they can get away with for the measley $78/day crowd and the only minimal effort (and others in this thread have mention how little extra they are actually getting for the upcharge) they put forth is for these upcharge events. Seriously, could Disney actually do less. How do they maintain the fanboi worship?

Now they charge for them.

Every succesful business knows how to manipulate people into suppoerting their product, not sure why you are implying Universal is better than Disney when it comes to that.

But I'm not talking $$$ here, I'm talking design, theming, and the worth of the attractions. >>>Doesn't matter what's going on in Japan, when they're out-Disneying the Disney that's right down the street.<<<< I know. It's a shame.
