However, if you saw the type of parades currently running in Tokyo and LA, you'd probably think differently. As for Lee... he sure seemed enthusiastic about that little water parade called "Mythica" at TDS this past week.

Originally Posted By TDLFAN >>what is the parade currently running in TDR<< At TDL, up until 3 days ago, they had 3 parades daily, "Disney Dreams on Parade: Moving on!", Find Stitch's special event parade "Huli Huli Ohana Bash!" which ended a succesful run on thursday the 13th, and "Tokyo Disneyland Electrical Parade: Dreamlights". Over at TDS, we have "legend of Mythica" which in itself is a water parade of spectacular proportions and you can see the pics I posted on that in the Tokyo section of LP. >>DON'T BE SO CRUEL TO WDW'S ENTERTAINMENT STAFF, TDLFAN! THEY'RE JUST AS GREAT AS THE PERFORMERS IN TDL, DL, ETC.!<< Yeah right. The parade performing CMs may be talented but they are sabotaged by low budgets and bad choreography. So Dis-kid... WDW's entertainment is below par. Sorry, but that's the way it is, even if you don't like it or fail to see it because of your limited experienced outside of WDW. One more thing... NO NEED TO SCREAM AT ME!

I know what your saying, and if WDW is where you hang out, I guess it's the best to you... and if you can't go to any other parks... then I guess WDW will be the best to you... enjoy it..
Originally Posted By gurgitoy2 You also don't have to NOT enjoy WDW because of hearing negative stuff. Even the people who seem overly negative, do enjoy themselves at the parks. It's just that they have a broader frame of reference. So, if you only have WDW as an example, it's still enjoyable. I don't see why people are so upset with the negative comments, since many times they are valid. I also see lots of positive stuff about WDW posted. Hey, at least this isn't the DCA section, LOL!
Originally Posted By TDLFAN Yes indeed Labuda.

Even G-Fan agree, and he is more discriminating about WDW that me, if you can believe it.
Originally Posted By Dis-Philip <<I probably should have warned you not to say anything nice about WDW... your only going to get sliced and diced on here... don't expect any help from anyone else>> For reasons like that, I had to shout...and I'm absolutely sick and tired of such negativity and criticisms here on the LaughingPlace boards! If people like you, TDLFAN, etc. are going to be such goshdarn mean and hateful, then you're the ones who should leave this board and never return and not me! I DO have things about WDW that I don't hesitate to complain about just like the rest of you (poor maintenance, things missing, not enough offerings for the guests, etc.), but don't be too hard on it, please. In regards to the WDW Entertainment staff, it's understandable that they get bogged down by limited budgets and choreography, but they do more in the dances than just "jumping jacks". At times like this, with people like TDLFAN, et al. not having any respect for other members' views and opinions, I don't think that Doobie and the other admins/mods here don't ever actually read these boards.

If you want world-class entertainment you have to pay for it. It is significantly easier for DL, TDL and DLP to attract performers as they are closer to the heart of those areas. I wholly agree with you though Dis-Philip as the criticism is extreme and not entirely justified. Things are changing and hopefully for the better. There are a lot of good things in the pipeline for WDW entertainment-wise.

This discussion forum should be biased one way or the other. Everybody should be allowed to voice their opinions. It's when people start telling people how they should be feeling that it gets troublesome. TDLFAN may be pretty vocal, but it's not like he is forcing everyone to share his views...at least that's not the impression I get. Its more like he has a very strong opinion about certain things (as do a lot of people around here). Look, some people can be just as easily offended by those who only gush the positive and sound like press releases, so it goes both ways. Also, when there is so much negativity, obviously people are not happy...you can't ignore that. Look at how negative everybody was about Disneyland when Paul Pressler was in charge. When Matt Ouimet took over, things turned around and you don't hear all that much negativity over there anymore...with the excption of DCA. Anyway, I don't see people complaining just to complain. They obviously feel things are not up to standards at WDW and are hoping things turn around like they did at Disneyland.
