If they were to revitalize dinoland they would have to build something that works within the existing storyline. something they are obviously not interested in doing.

Yeah, I know, I still have my Kron and Bruton Happy Meal toys.
But come on, everybody uses this as a justification, but for all intents and purposes Dinosaur the ride is completely independent from Dinosaur the movie. No one goes on Dinosaur because of the movie. Seeker isn't in the movie.
I think Indy, like Dinosaur, can be viewed as its own separate entity from the films. You don’t have to have seen the films to enjoy Indiana Jones Adventure. It’s an original story, in an original setting, that just uses a few characters. Disney was good at that in the 90s, making attractions that stand alone from their IP (see Splash, Tower, and Star Tours).

Well…to be fair…it makes ZERO sense
Neither does anyone impartial
It’s not like they have to tell the truth though
I'll take that bet, Matt! You see my blog post yesterday?

Meh, Dino never lived up to it's own expectation. A lesser experiential version of Alien Encounter where they rely on dark rooms with some flashing lights and sounds. With Indy there will actually be scenes to SEE inside of rolling around the corner into yet another pitch black room with nothing in it.

Wrong intrepretation, poor choice of words by me!
There are plenty of people here that think that Disney will get cold feet and not follow through and change Dinosaur to Indy. They keep double-downing and so now I'm keeping bookmarks.
I'm willing to bet those naysayers.
Dinosaur to Indy is happening!

I’m confused. What are you trying to say here?

The practical reason for them to replace dinosaur is likely the AAs are at the end of their lifespan…
So you gut it…replace it with new stuff that they don’t have to develop (clone)…spend 3-5 years doing it…then slap a “new!!” And a fastpass charge on it for another 5
…it doesn’t get more “practical” than that for the house of “magic”
We just saw this in another park to the north/northeast

Hey, we got the Main Street Theater, too... oh wait...
(I don't doubt that Indy is coming to Dinosaur, for the record. Just pointing out that things can change up to the point of construction starting.)

Word is Disney surveys are often constructed/worded to obtain a predetermined result, usually to justify a decision or course of action that someone in management is pushing for.

And how exactly do they this? Hmm?

“Often”? You’re being extremely kind

Actually they are the best private information gathering operation out there
Though they used to be better at it
They often have the results predetermined and steer you to the only landing spot…while embedding the actual focus they’re trying to get with bits and pieces of other questions
Are you asking a legitimate question or just doubting what I wrote?
A surprisingly neat pile of rubble!

Legitimately asking.
One way is to manipulate the wording used. For example:
"How you rate the value for the price you paid for Lightning Lane Premier Pass today?"
Excellent
Very good
Good
Just okay
Poor
(Disney does use that answer scale, I have screenshots)
Instantly, you have an 80% chance of what could be considered a "positive" answer. Then you get Josh on stage saying, "80% of guests have a positive opinion of Lightning Lane Premier Pass!", even though the aggregate number received was actually a 1.9 on a 5-point scale (totally making up numbers in that last sentence). With multi-choice answers, you can provide 90% positive responses and hide the negative 10% by mixing them in with the positive items to potentially manipulate what boxes get checked. If you want true opinions, you use unbiased language and provide a equal balance of answers, plus potentially a text box to provide additional feedback.
You can influence someone's mindset by using positive language early in a survey, then ask questions.
You can also manipulate who you survey. Do you want to survey the family that looks angry, stomping out of MK, or do you want to survey the family laughing with bags under their arms and smiling? They also send surveys that often close within 48 hours of a park visit, so they are trying to get people still on "the high" from a park visit, rather than 30-45 days later once the credit card bills hit, plus you've had time to reflect on things.

Oh I don’t think there’s any confusion there
“Investment”…and I’ll remind to trust ONLY the shovels…doesn’t mean “capacity” at all.
Unfortunately capacity is the only effective way to provide a solution for the “slide” we have seen in Orlando
But “investment” can be nothing but expensive maintenance…as splash and now CTX are getting.
