    Most of them are. All are animated features released in the USA though.

    The scene we've been talking about in Roger Rabbit is also rather x-rated ... but only for a few frames, so they got away with it.

    My exact sentiments too Constance.

    If they got rid of all of Toontown (minus Roger Rabbit's ride) ... and did a mini "London town" with a Mary Poppins ride instead ... I'd be tickled pink.

    As for a home for Mickey, they could have more than princesses .. in the new Meet & Greet in the hub .. They could alternate with various Disney characters .. and start with Mickey Mouse.

    Thing is - space is limited in Disneyland. Some things could be compacted .. in order to give bigger and better ideas a go.

    A "Mary Poppins" ride was originally envisioned for the back side of Fantasyland back in the 70s. I just wonder if there's some way that concept could be revisited. If not Mary, perhaps another intellectual property with classic status.

    Merry old London-Town? With such wonderful properties as "Bedknobs" and "Sword in the Stone?" Not bad, but where could they put it? If it were up to me, how about just behind IASW?

    It would be like if Radiator springs was in the firework fall out zone and it had to close for several hours in the evening. Guests wouldn't be too thrilled and the bean counters wouldn't be too thrilled because of people not buying things at that time.
    In the minds of Disney execs there is just no reason to really invest in improvements or new additions for a land has to close earlier than any of the other lands.

    BUT, in the grand scheme of things - look at what's being rumored for DCA: Monsters Inc. mini-me land.

    So ;) - Don't knock England ... when the co. is possibly thinking of far worse ideas.

Really nothing for me. Still, it is kind of charming to see where Mickey and Minnie live ....
