For those who keep droning on about how “unpopular” and “low-rated” this attraction is.

Yes, I’m aware that these aren’t Guest Satasfaction surveys, but it would be interesting to know how “low” this rates and what the questioning is like.

Regardless, it rates pretty well in all of these apps that average Guests use.

That means the people who see it and take the time to review it like it.

All those reviews together amount to around 650 people.

Just like the riverboat…. I find it strange that fans of Disney parks want Disney parks to become something completely different.

I don’t want to visit Igers plastic IP land - I want to visit Walt Disney’s Magic Kingdom!

So these opinions don’t count?

Hypothetically replacing the hall of presidents with say a muppets American history show is not the same thing as paving over the rivers of America for cars.

Correct, Not to Disney.

So these opinions don’t count?

They count, but they’re too small a sample to show popularity with the general public.

Means nothing. Sorry.

Yes, those numbers are meaningless vs the actual number of visitors that see the show.

Which is what, two full shows of HoP?

It’s more like splash to Tiana - it rips the heart and soul out of the attraction but yes - the structure is still there.

But I doubt that happens - Liberty Square will most likely go to yesterworld.

I just want a Disney Park that feels like a Disney Park. That’s why we’re taking the family to Tokyo next year.

I just want a Disney Park that feels like a Disney Park (use to be in the USA)

Low rated is relative and I don't think most people are saying it is terrible, it just isn't as highly rated as most of the rest of the MK attractions that could be reasonable targeted for replacement.

Given that it is in a prime location and has limited appeal due to societal issues that are completely out of Disney's control, it seems like a ideal candidate for replacement.

The re opening of HoP is the beginning of a new golden age of WDW

As I referenced earlier - story time with belle is #3 on that list. If that’s the MK you want may Walt bless your Mickey ears.

Well, I'd rather do Storytime with Belle 10 times out of 10 vs Hall of Presidents so guess it is

You’re going to need one of these

Sadly

Disneyland, Tokyo Disney and Disneyland Paris are still in the conversation.

If they would admit the wrongs Epcot isn’t beyond hope yet - we got Harmonious thrown in the trash - let’s get that planter and broken lights replaced with a fountain and fiber optics again and we may just have an Epcot worthy of the name.

Sadly

Mannnn, Walt Disney World in the 80’s….SOMEONE GET ME A DELOREAN!

Also, maybe, if we want back in time, we could save the future from Biff Iger and his gang of Disney adults.

Well, by this logic, there’s a whole lot of attractions that have to go before it.
