Last time I went to WDW (SB 09)I heard many people (including people I knew) skipping over rides because "isn't that like old?" etc.

As immature as it is I do chuckle whenever I see MILF on a disney forum. >If that were true, Stich, MILF, and the Magic Carpets would have the longest lines in the park.< My comment wasn't meant to be a one size fits all deal...

But to be honest, it's kind of weird and I felt uncomfortable invading their space. I still love the old show, however, I can see that, for me at least, it would get old pretty quick. << As Bruce Willis said in Die Hard, "Geez, California". Sounds kind of like the Rocky Horror Picture Show crowd.

Originally Posted By Spirit of 74 <<That's funny, I thought it was because they did more soft core drugs.>> I dunno ... I think many WDW guests (especially those on government benefits) are likely getting the stronger (i.e. Rush type) meds prescribed! But what's wrong with a little soft core? <<Who knew it was because they were more discerning and wordly? (whatever that is)>> Just means that the largest base of guests lives in the media capital of the world and tend to be more up on trends and what's going on in the world than folks who live in Podunk, Indiana. And Disney also pulls many in from Asia and Australia. Less bumpkins than WDW.

It won't be any fun to go there any more if the same kinds of experience aren't there for them. That's when the magic finally breaks.
