Inspiration failed because we haven't attained that specific future yet. Now you're just trolling. Good day.

He specifically used the word "dilute", not eliminate. Does Nemo inspire you to think about a future where we have created a seabase on the ocean floor? Oh, wait, Nemo inspires you to get lost in a fantasy world of talking fish. Fun, but not in the theme of Future World. "Mommy, when I grow up...

Presumably it wasn't the scanners themselves that failed, rather the system behind them, which is also what the ipads talk to.

You had me going for a moment, I was even about to hit the "Like" button until that business about Horizons. Shame on you and your house ;)

Well played. I previously acknowledged the uniqueness of Star Wars and accept that the Marvel example is also a bit different given its size and scope. I imagine that the primary question with such lands would be the way it was incorporated into the larger park.

Those are broad genres that even while rising and falling in popularity like everything else, are broad enough to encompass new IPs as they arise. By means of an example, if Frontierland had been themed exclusively to The Lone Ranger, you would be limited to only that IP, even when it went off...

My specific comment here was merely to clarify the difference between what was described as being the same in principle. However, you raise an interesting point. Honestly, I'm not sure and would have to think about the specifics of the IP, mainly how it would fit within the larger park itself...

I think you misunderstand the argument. Each of those lands is themed to a genre that contains all of those IPs and is not themed to a particular IP itself. Avatarland, for example, would be the equivalent of making Treasure Island-Land. If Avatarland was contained within Sci-Fi-Land or...

Nothing like arguing that people shouldn't complain about a theme park by complaining about the people instead. :rolleyes: Maybe people need to spend more time reading before reducing an entire group of people to whiners who complain about 10 minute waits at a restaurant.

Where? When? :D

What are you waiting for? ;) In all seriousness, I love reading lengthy and well thought out pieces. It's not exactly what forums are built for, but I tend to get a better idea of the author's thoughts than when I have to piece together a bunch of smaller posts. In addition, the discussion of...

I know it's a nightmare to weed through dozens and dozens of pages of arguments, but those really are the best places to answer your question. Not everyone (even those with the same general opinions) agree on the whys and so you really need to look at the arguments made by individuals about...

Or they assume that if it stays broken long enough, guests might start to question whether it even moved in the first place :p

Thanks for posting that, it was a neat read.

This is a valid concern. We were staying at Ft. Wilderness one year in January and had evening reservations at California Grill. It was absurdly cold that evening and the women in our party had only packed dresses for nice dining attire. We hopped a boat from Ft. Wilderness to the Contemporary...

For many people, your assessment is probably spot on. I would like to suggest a little nuance that may apply to another group. It's not actually about authenticity. It's about spirit and ease. This is difficult for me to describe, so if it doesn't register, I apologize in advance, but here it...

Solid advice, but to avoid confusion, the Hess has been converted to a Speedway.

For most people, that is correct. But to be fair, I have met others who do indeed object to even the presence of Mickey walking around. I don't agree with them, but in this case the poster's comment is not hyperbole and there are those who make that argument.

Those meaningless, pesky facts... And for the record, that "pointless debate" produced new (to me and a few others at least) information regarding the developmental relationship between an attraction and a movie, as well as alerting me to an interesting book I hadn't heard of before.

It looks like my library will be expanding again :p. Thanks for the suggestions, particularly the Santoli book as I hadn't heard of it before.
