Pixar are Disney though, so unless you want all the animated characters, including those located in Fantasyland moved to the studios - its not going to happen.

Fine with me!
Back in the old days (ahem, I know) Disney had no problem creating rides and experiences that had no connection to films or TV shows... God forbid they ever do that now. I like wandering around DAK in a wholly foreign environment, with minimal connections to cartoons.

This doesn't surprise me at all. I wouldn't be surprised if it was 2 to 1 as well.
Everyone that is saying that Cars merch will inevitably be the "driver" of getting some version of Carsland to Florida are probably right.

Yeah, but it's the Avengers. I guess I'm out of touch when it comes to merch. Been a long time since I was a Target toy department supervisor.

It's just something special they do every Christmas. That means HS would have nothing special during the holidaysSo, you're telling me you'd rather see christmas lights than have almost a half of a new park?

Cars caters to the male age demograph that is covered by princesses for girls.
Every supermarket stocks the two, both the princess stuff and Cars. The girl sleeps in a pink room with a Belle bedsheet, the boy has got a blue room with Cars bedsheet. This is the relevance of Cars, why Disney pushes it.
Personally, I think that girls are drawn of themselves to princess stuff. They love it. Girls all dream of being Ariel, they all get it and respond to it. Whereas boys react mostly lukewarm to Cars stuff. No boy dreams of being Tow Mater. Boys are notoriously difficult to find presents for. But they parents want to buy them some, and Disney has managed to fill the gap, with a merchandise line the parents think the boys love. It is the parents who buy it for them, for no other reason than that it is there, it are cars, and it is Disney.

I know but let's face it the only attractions which have/are been/being built are over in the the great Orient have no connections to the toons. But in reality there are toons all over AK and I doubt even the new CEO of TWDC will not want some presence of the Toons but like Epcot AK desperately need more rides.

If it is Pixar Place and at the terminus of Pixar Place is Radiator Springs I can't see how that would be disjointing. Perhaps only a small section of street would need to be created.

You have seen the show right? If not try to watch it on YouTube and NOT click it off. Dull as a spoon.

If by reviled, you mean beloved, then yes. Heimlich's Chew Chew Train is awesome! It's a charming, small ride.

Then he went on to build WDW that had clones of some rides from DL.

I was just getting ready to say the same thing. The ride is not terrible! It's cute for a kiddie ride and the smells are great!

Walt Disney had nothing to do with WDW, including Magic Kingdom. He said there would never be another Disneyland. He wanted Epcot.

A park similar to Disneyland in Disney World was always a part of the plan. Walt Disney mentions it in the film about the Florida project.

The original plans weren't to copy that many rides including the dark rides there were supposed to be sleeping beauty marry popping and a different version of mr toad. But Walt died and the imagineers changed those not him. This is besides the point where has the imagination gone? Just copying a land from DCA because it is popular, make good money, and requires little thinking. The people on these threads have better ideas than the imagineers do.
