No one here called it stupid if you like the "California" theming, so not sure why you have to call other's opinions stupid just because they don't like it and provided reasons why. Just because someone has a different opinion than you doesn't mean you have to disrespect them.Bingo. The "I can just travel California" argument is stupid. I love seeing the places that have inspired Disneyland, but ultimately Disneyland is still Disneyland and that carries a certain air that distinguishes it from its influences. Same goes for DCA. I can go to Los Angeles, Hollywood, and Santa Cruz, but I can't go to Carthay Circle, Hollywood Tower Hotel, and Paradise Pier.
I've traveled and lived in different locations within the state as well as outside the state for more years than you've been alive, all places are flawed. But that doesn't mean I want a fantasized version of them just because they are flawed. The concept has its merits but its also still very limiting in my opinion. And if I'm going to spend my money on a theme park vacation I rather spend it on a place that isn't themed to a specific locale but is themed to a broad theme.
