No, I don't. Do you think it is fair for little ten year old girls to wait until they're twenty years old to experience a Frozen attraction at Disney?
Which one is better -- waiting for one hour or waiting for ten years?
There are no gifs, but the pictures serve as a visual aid in effectively countering the argument that Frozen does not fit or somehow does not reflect the culture of Norway.
Sorry, you misread. I totally *love* FP+! @AEfx and I were discussing FP+ *only*. You know, you may want to try this little thing called 'reading' -- it could save us so much time on the fundamentals.
Frozen desperately needs a dedicated space in the parks because people were waiting in line upwards of seven hours just to meet the characters -- not only because the movie was popular.
Fast and cheap are not mutually exclusive so, I don't really get your comment. Haven't you heard of the Iron Triangle? It goes like this.

- Develop something quickly and of high quality, but it will be very costly to do
- Develop something quickly and cheaply, but it will not be of high quality
Now, the Frozen ride presents an interesting conundrum, in that all of the infrastructure is already in place, it's just an elaborate overlay, that includes the expansion of the neighboring plot of land.
- Develop something of high quality and low cost, but it will take a long time
Disney is still investing upwards of $80 - $100 million dollars for this expansion. In contrast, Cedar Point just unveiled their brand new floorless coaster called Rougarou and that cost only $12 million dollars. So, this is not a *cheap* expansion by any stretch of the imagination, Disney could build 10 Rougarou coasters for the price of this overlay. If we remove the existing infrastructure it would cost twice that or more.
I think the Frozen ride and expansion falls under quick and of high quality but costly.
"Creating a larger dissociative disorder with Epcot is the problem."
^^^ All I can is wow to the above comment -- it raises so many red flags and is by far one of the most bizarre comments I have ever read.
I seriously don't know of any credible mental health professional, or anyone with expertise in this particular field of practice that would feel confident in throwing out random diagnoses of mental illness to label strangers on the internet, in hopes of illustrating a point about an amusement park ride.
And, sadly I have seen this kind of thing done here before. It's incredibly spiteful, if anything it hurts your credibility and highlights your inability to convey a simple opinion about an amusement park ride without resorting to desperate ad hom fallacy type attacks. You have just demonstrated to everyone, how low you are willing to stoop, in order to prove a point that is purely subjective anyway, so take a good look in the mirror.
Just relax, and think carefully about exercising caution when writing your responses. Civil discourse should be fun and engaging -- we don't have to be mean to each other. Seriously, such measures should only be applied when dealing with @wm49rs.
Thank you for answering my question. I was kind of hoping that the both spaces would be connected to where I can just walk right across, if that makes sense.
I acknowledge that Frozen deserves more. However, if you look at this objectively -- the only other alternative, is to wait for several years after Star Wars is completed, so this isn't quite so bad. Maelstrom needed an update anyway.
And they also let you avoid facts or uncomfortable questions you don't wish to answer. Convenient. But, must press on while on the clock....No, I don't. Do you think it is fair for little ten year old girls to wait until they're twenty years old to experience a Frozen attraction at Disney?

Who told you that nonsense? I hope you didn't believe them.
It would have been great. Building a city in a swamp in just 3 years.
It goes beyond believing PR. It comes across as brain washing. Maybe it is JT's cousin or something.
So much wrong with this its not even funny. You do realize Tokyo is getting a full expansion that will take much less than 10 years right? It's set to open in 2018 though I don't believe work has started yet. I'll also bring up the obligatory Uni comparison and say that both Harry Potter lands were built and open in less than ten years, not to mention the other rides that opened in the same timeframe. A quality attraction doesn't have to take so long. Disney is just so obsessed with their quarter-to-quarter numbers that they needlessly spread things out to make them look better.

Rougarou was a cheap overlay of an existing coaster. Exactly what Disney is doing with this attraction. $75 Million is "cheap" for a new Disney attraction.No, I don't.

I was speaking about Epcot having an identity issue in terms of blurring the lines between it and MK. Perhaps you should heed your own advice and learn to read, then take it another step further and work on your interpretive skills. Your so quick to assume everything is an attack. Everything else you said about that comment was a waste of server space. Which leads me to my second point.
Citing your desire for civil discourse after you hurl insults at myself and @wm49rs displays how hypocritical your entire viewpoint is. Similar to when you said it was great that they were joining the M&G space with the existing area to improve fluidity, and when later proven wrong, you changed your opinion and said how it was great idea to have them separate. I dont even think you know what you are defending at this point. Your excited for a Frozen ride, we get it. Some people are having a discussion in regards to much larger issues though such as hourly capacity and the companies desire for attendance boost over quality adaptation and creativeness. Frozen and Norwegian tourism is the least of our concerns. Try and keep up. Take tylenol for any headaches.
Im still waiting for her response to that as well. The questions that cant be dismissed with a broad retort such as, "get over it" or "Frozen needs a ride" require more time to formulate a confusing response that will ultimately neither answer the question nor prove their point that this was the proper decision in any way.
2 1/2 to be exact
And Frostrom will take about 1 1/2 when all is said and done.
