And honestly, your "dumbing down" call for everything is starting to get stale.<<< And adding fantasy into that magically fixes that? No thank you. And your defense of all things uncreative is a little overwrought, too.

Epcot is supposed to edutain, is it not? Sometimes I think you forget the TAIN part of that word, EE. <<And your defense of all things uncreative is a little overwrought, too.>> I don't defend all "uncreative" things. But when something can be done in a creative way that would fit with a park and be a hell of a lot of fun, I'm all for it. You have too many rules for the parks. As the Joker says, "The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules."

Can't they do something for themselves? Be creative! Be original! Don't rely on buying franchises! It is so incredibly stupid of them to always rely on something already done. Take a risk. Build something totally new. It's nit the fantasy aspect of it, nor is it the entertainment . It's the content. >>>I don't defend all "uncreative" things.

As the Joker says, "The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules." <<< I think they are uncreative. It's a cop out. It is boring. They need something new. I don't understand why you want to see more of the same. These aren't rules. This is an expectation for quality in a resort that used to be paramount in creating new experiences and stories. Not rehashing old ones that they bought.

I think you are you are desperate for somethimg new in Disney, and I am too, but honestly, looking for something that isn't created by Disney in the first place isn't going to do what we want it to do in the long run. It's a quick fix.
