I'm not up to speed (get it?) on this WDW version of this discussion. But I just posted this over on the Disneyland version of this dicsussion and I thought maybe someone here might appreciate it....
You know how we know that Josh D'Amaro and Bruce Vaughn and all the other losers know this was a bad decision?...
They didn't admit to it in front of 12,000 fans at D23 Expo. Instead, they fudged the details and buried the plot and told a few white lies. Because they know in their heart of hearts that this is a dumb and cheap way to run a theme park.
Instead of Josh D'Amaro being honest and saying at D23 Expo in a packed house at the Honda Center...
"We'll say goodbye to the Rivers of America and much of Frontierland in order to tell the immersive story of Cars!"
He actually said (exact transcript from D23 Expo Horizons presentation at the Honda Center)...
"I'm happy to announce we're inviting Mater and Lightning McQueen to a re-imagined section of Frontierland!"
And then Mr. D'Amaro said nothing about some sudden problem with maintaining a 53 year old body of water in water-logged central Florida. Nor did he even mention the following words... "Rivers Of America" or "Riverboat" or "Tom Sawyer Island".
D'Amaro just forged ahead, and made it sound like this was an addition to the existing park, instead of an erasure of the existing park. It wasn't until hours later when fans started realizing what was happening. And what all this actually meant.
That proves that even Josh D'Amaro, with his winning smile and runner's physique and Cool Dad wardrobe, knows that he is not making the correct decision about Magic Kingdom's future.
