Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer Well, not Fantasyland, Hokie. Things like Pixar Place do have their place in DHS, they just need to be integrated better, IMO.

Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer >>>Pixar doesn't equal Disney in my eyes. Yes I know they own them, but Pixar has their own creative team and makes their own movies their way.<<< So where would you put them? As you said, they are seperate...I'd just want a better PP in DHS. Closer to Animation.
Originally Posted By HokieSkipper Right. That's why I said they belong in DHS. But classic Disney doesn't really, IMO. At least outside of The Animation Courtyard. And I don't know how you could make PP any closer to Animation than it already is, haha.
Originally Posted By Christi22222 While I think the ride could use a refurb and possible update, I would just die if they changed it over to Disney flicks. Those classics are just that, classic. I usually tear up at the ending because those moments from those movies are so intense and incredible! I agree with the "less synergy" point by Epcot Explorer. Not everything has to be Mickey. For the love of god, they are going to make me start disliking the mouse if they insist on sticking him on everything. I'm already horrified that they took the gorgeous sun off the sunwheel at DCA and added that cheesy Mickey instead. Ugh. (It may have been only half a park, but it was beautiful. They don't need to change the detailing, just increase the amount of interesting attractions. But that's another topic!)

And put PP behind it...Next to it, it gives the feel that it's more separated. (this is why I don't like DHS' layout...and why you do. LOL)
