Trying to shoehorn a ride in there was a terrible idea from the start. Yes, there was always an omnimover there, but it really was not a standalone attraction -- it was just one part of the whole pavilion experience as an underwater base. It wasn't intended as something people would line up to...
They can't do too much with the Speedway spot now thanks to TRON.
I mean, they could still do something better than the Speedway, but TRON's placement significantly hinders what can be done on that plot.
I've always said that I don't think Figment really works without Dreamfinder, or at least some kind of Dreamfinder analogue -- it doesn't have to be Dreamfinder himself, although it seems silly not to use him if you're going to do something similar.
The original attraction would not have been...
There's no guarantee that it will have a shorter lifespan, but I don't believe Disney intends this to be a permanent solution the way they intended Play! to be a permanent solution. Play! was guaranteed to last a long time because that was always the intent; this isn't.
I certainly don't think...
I've said before that I think nothing is better than Play!.
Nothing means it's still sitting there as something they need to deal with eventually, and people can at least pitch ideas for it. Play! was intended as a permanent addition, so if it had opened, it wasn't going to change for a very...
It's definitely better than Play! IMO.
Play! would have been a disaster. This is mediocre but inoffensive and not remotely as bad a decision as Play! would have been for EPCOT -- while this will probably stick around for a decade at DHS, it at least makes sense in the park and will add some...
I think 7DMT, while disappointing and not what it should have been, is more interesting/better than Slinky Dog.
I'd definitely disagree about TSL being more complete than Pandora too, although that's at least partially because, to me, Pandora has two great attractions and TSL has none. It's...
The problem is the amount of space TSL uses. It doesn't offer nearly enough for how huge it is.
I'd rather have a worse roster of attractions (although TSL is already mediocre in terms of attractions, just not as bad as the international versions) in a much, much smaller land rather than the...
It absolutely was a stronger attraction lineup to me. There were multiple attractions at EPCOT's peak (not opening day, but early 1990s) better than anything that currently exists at Magic Kingdom.
Of course it's subjective, and Magic Kingdom has far more rides, but I favor quality over quantity.
I don't see why anyone would want MK to have less dining, live entertainment, and attractions than Disneyland in general, though, specifics of what they are aside.
