I think if they could find a way to do so without killing their reputation, they'd sooner close one of the parks than build another. Disney's Animal Kingdom did not extended stays the way they wanted and there is greater costs in operating an additional park.

Well, they are converting Epcot into a bar I believe...
I just felt like I was being ganged up on, which I don't particularly like. I realize this topic has been repeatedly discussed, but there's no rule stating I can't make a thread... I just thought the comments were a little uncalled for. Nothing wrong with wanting different perspectives on this topic.

Thanks to the nod on my user name. Knotts is the basis of the American theme park in general Walt Disney and Walt Knott were admirer's of each other. My thought here was to you Universal Orlando is a second banana. Knotts Berry farm is a small place with a huge cult following. You never know what may influence you.
Honestly I saw your post after I clicked go on mine. I mean no ill will here just good fun. Like I said fun to imagine a fifth gate.
Cool Avatar!

Eh, for the most part most of us find it funny when an idea that's been discussed a lot comes up again. And most of us are just ribbing you. So you figure, those of us who are doing it in good humor are being friendly about it, don't take offense. Those who are viscerally attacking you...are viscerally attacking a stranger on an internet forum for the crime of asking a question that's been asked multiple times before and isn't that far sadder than YOU ASKING that question in the first place? So don't take offense.

I just hope they can think of a name that doesn't include Kingdom. Amazed they didn't rename MGM the Film Kingdom.

OK, but seriously your question was ridiculous.
Meh first year being on a forum...I've learned.
I definitely think they have to be careful.
Why not a name ending in -land?

@ToyStorygirl....wow, so many things to respond to. Agreed....a music themed park, maybe a little edgier than Disney is used to, would be unique (I think) and they could invite real stars to perform there, create band based attractions like they did with Aerosmith, and do a better night time show than even Fantasmic. Every time I watch that show, I think how could KISS do this better?
..as for only ever " eating at the same restaurant all the time?"... I hear ya'....I am often the person using that similar analogy to others. You've got me on that one. But hey, that just made me think of another idea....a food based theme park. Everybody eats?
Now, you can SAY WDW is a replica of DL, but do you really FEEL that. I've been to both, and Euro Disney, and there is a reason they call it a WORLD down there in Florida. DL holds that special spot in my heart and always will, but DL is merely the seed from which a great and awesome jungle grew.

If the worst thing that happens in the course of your day is that you ask an oft-asked question on a Disney fan forum, you know what that is?
A good day.

How can you call Universal second best if you've never even been?
In regards to Disney paving the way for Universal... No. Disneyland is not the first theme park. Other parks paved the way for Disney. Also, Disney copied Universal when they made DHS.
Nobody said Disneyland was the first theme park... it was the first of its kind. Completely innovative and immersive.
+ Disney didn't "copy"... it's called competition. It was a smart move, if anything.

One of the reasons I came over here from disboards was that there was too much bullying in the form of sarcastic comments by the veterans to newbies who might post something that has been explored. I thought those on the magic boards seemed to avoid this kind of thing.
If someone wants to explore this topic, that is fine. Unless if a topic has been explored before it is forbidden? Seems silly, right? I read a thread because it interests me. Sometimes I post, sometimes I look. But I would not post a comment about how ridiculous it is for a person to post a thread. It just seems to be not so nice.
That being said, I do agree that a fifth park would not be something I would want them explore until they work out some things at epcot and animal kingdom. Magic kingdom and Hollywood studios have enough for me. But we are not people who go down a few times a year, or every other year, so it's hard for us to get tired of things.
