All I see is a picture of 'Pixarlandia' and the word 'adios' as even being remotely Mexican. Is it the title? What am I'm missing? BTW, the park sounds fine lol. Disney could do worse (and they have ).

And BTW, the public apparently sent 6 million people to DCA last year, not THAT far off of the 7 million that was usually bandied about as Disney's target. DCA is a secondary park, and not designed to draw more than about half DL's attendance, at least not until it expands into all its available space.

Originally Posted By danyoung >...you can say you hate it all you want, but if you keep going over there, even if it's just to ride TOT...then it seems to me it isn't as bad as you say.< It's entirely possible to enjoy elements of DCA while still being upset at the total package. I don't think the warmest DCA apologist would say that DCA is as great as DL park is. Even Disney has admitted that they had the wrong focus when they built this park, and having great shops and restaurants is not enough to bring in a crowd. They're spending hundreds of millions of dollars right now to bring more first class attractions into DCA. That's as good an indication as any that the place needs some help.
