No. You seem to have a poor understanding of market research." He sure does. He doesn't address the point that the decision will have already been made and the survey will be rigged so that the questions automatically give the desired answer. EVERYBODY knows how that works!

Originally Posted By berol "He doesn't address the point that the decision will have already been made and the survey will be rigged so that the questions automatically give the desired answer." It wasn't Disney's, but I took a survey once where I laughed out loud from a survey question that was worded so it was impossible to give any answer but a certain choice. The guy said people still picked other choices. "If Yookeroo has the time to call me out on something I don't understand, then surely he has the time to share his knowledge on the subject." The logic lacks there, so I'll throw it all out and explain. ""So, if Joe Tourist says in one of those "market research" sessions - Would you like to see Mike and Sully in a "Stand Up Comic Routine" in Tomorrowland, and says "yes" ... they'll do it?"" That isn't what happens. See Brad's last post. BTW, separating an occasional sentence from a paragraph emphasizes it, but separating every sentence is just double spacing.

Based on the word stake, I am assuming the later...

Years before MILF, Walt himself started the slippery slope of toonification of lands besides Fantasyland.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros The pre-show to the WDI exhibit at the last D23 expo was very reminiscent of a CircleVision theater (or some of the old stuff at Epcot), with a wrap-around screen. They even had a room with a projection of the Carsland progress where you could see the construction surrounding you, yet we've seen no indication that they're considering anything like that for the parks. I wouldn't read too much into it

Originally Posted By FerretAfros I watched a video of the WDI preshow yesterday, and I'd hardly say it's "all about doors". Yes, the Monsters Inc doors are used a couple times near the end, but they were hardly consistent with them. The standout feature to me was the retro-60's design aesthetic that WDI has used in recent years; does that mean that we're destined to see a revival of TL67? I sure doubt it.
