On a more serious note, I am in agreement with Dabob that at times the dramatic criticisms of DCA can get out of hand sometimes. It's not so bad now, but I recall some people here literally being pissed off that Disney didn't build the kind of park that they thought should have been built back around the time the place opened. They would call me and others who liked the place apologists (and worse), and compare Eisner to the Devil. The outrage over DCA was quite something back then.

Originally Posted By TP2000 Hans is right. I've never been a huge fan of DCA, and I was particularly critical of the place in 2001-03. But some folks went way overboard. While I've changed my tune on DCA as it's developed over the years, some folks still claim it's just a total train wreck. I think by 2012 DCA will be one of the best non-Disneyland style parks in the Disney empire. Second only to Epcot and/or DisneySea. But comapared to the Studios in Paris, and certainly DHS and Animal Kingdom, DCA is going to be fantastic about 18 months from now. Exciting times!
Originally Posted By WorldDisney ^^Agreed with all of that 100% TP2000! DCA 1.0 started off bad for a Disney park, but okay. Its gotten better over the years but still nothing home to write about. But certainly a place you can enjoy and I find myself staying a little longer every few years I can visit. But come 2012, DCA 2.0 will finally have the look and feel of a TRUE Disney experience IMO and 1.0 will hopefully be long forgotten by then. I'm soooo excited to what will be coming then .
