That and Galaxy’s Edge and the Epcot spine. I don’t where other people are getting all this trust out of current Disney. These are the projects when they really *try.*They KNOW it has to blow people out of the water! Just like they knew Tiana’s had to blow people out of the water! Look at how great that turned out! Why can’t we trust these poor execs making these hard decisions!
They think we’re idiots.
Some CA projects have turned out okay, and I’ll get to see Fantasy Springs in 2 months. So maybe it’s just operational constraints and budgets after being run through WDW management, and not the entirety of WDI that’s broken. However, as someone whose first failure and Disney heartbreak was Tomorrowland ‘98, I really don’t have the patience or frankly, time to give them the benefit of the doubt anymore. Better ideas aren’t coming, because the people in charge can’t even recognize what differentiates themselves from others in the marketplace.
My WDW visits have continued the last decade, because I could visit for free. The June trip was the first time I didn’t go to all 4 parks. We skipped DHS because it’s too hard to actually ride anything after the first attraction. It’s been basically two of Tower, MMRR and TSMM, followed by Muppets and Star Tours before leaving. All these announcements, the writing is on the wall. Disney doesn’t even want guests to have the option to experience attractions with low waits. Every attraction must be painful (which only ratchets up expectations, but whatever.) Or space simply abandoned like the front of Tomorrowland.
When DLR announced their Frontierland changes, we booked a last minute trip to see the park before. I’m not sure if I ever want to set foot in the Magic Kingdom again. Once Epic opens it will be hard to justify keeping WDW on the agenda, even though it’s free, and we have to pay… and expect to pay a lot, to do Universal.
