I’m glad it’s gone. It reminds people that Disney used to have a ride based on African Folk Tales, and that hurt a lot of people feelings. Luckily, they are replacing it with a European Fairy Tale😍😍😍

“Simple” dark rides are the foundation that Disney was built on (to me) so much creativity packed into small rooms. I will take a well built dark ride over an “action” ride any day. Add them together (splash mountain) and you get the best ride in the world! GE definitely needs more, but I’m not...

Replacing a ride based on African American Folk Tales with a ride based on European Fairytales sweeps away racism?? I guess my actually history and stories are too offensive for some people so we have to replace them with safer, European versions…

We have priced trips to Europe for cheaper than Disney trips. “Once in a lifetime” trip or our yearly Disney trip? Pretty easy decision for us. I look forward to pricing out other locations in the future too. We’ll be back, but it will be closer to every five years going forward.

Hopefully change of leadership and a halt on all the new “upgrades”

Disneyland? Maybe. Disney world? No. I would guess it would be replaced by a Moana or Encanto ride.

Walking into a restaurant in the daylight and walking out at dusk/ night with all the lights (or in the case of old Epcot; Tapestry of nations and the the torch towers) was about the coolest feelings ever. You felt reenergized after eating and walking out to the cooler air.

Splash mountain: even being the most popular ride in the world isn’t enough for it 😉. But seriosuly, living with the land, CoP, Tta would all be in consideration for me, but I’m going to say the transportation rides. The trains, monorails, horses trolley, the riverboat, they all add so much to...

Here’s some fairly small areas that I like to visit: The queue of Splash Mountain. It’s in its own little world down there. TSI, a little sitting dock across from Big Thunder. Two rocking chairs on a porch in Liberty Square.

I really like Coasters, but if I had to choose only riding dark rides vs roller coaster, I would pick dark rides all day. The theming, story telling, and ambiance created in those dark rides is what sets (set) Disney apart. Luckily, there’s a lot of middle ground between the two that Disney can...

Splash, hands down. Best music in the parks, great story, great animatronic, awesome drop, and the only ride based on African American Folk Tales. (Space is awesome too…)

When talking to people who have just got back from their first Disney trip, I have always heard complaints about the cost and the crowds, but usually, there was a “but..” and then we talked about the incredible rides and how everything is so well themed, even the lines, etc. and you could always...

Probably keep it free but have an up charge for priority seating. Skip the line at the monorail/bus station at the end of the night type of thing. Lot of people would be interested in that I bet. And after a while, everyone will have to pay for it it if they want to get anyplace in under 2...

$50,000 to experience the original California Adventure 😍😍😍 Just kidding. But I would probably do 1000 a day to visit various parks in different eras. That would have to include Disneyland. Could probably spend 3 different days there.

I’m not a fan, but it’s interesting to see some people talk about their love for the ride. I say keep it for the moment, because current management just couldn’t handle replacing it with a superior or even equal attraction.
