wedway71 said:Even though deep down I am a traditionalist I totally respect and welcome change.Sometimes people forget Disney is a corporation that has share holders and to be viable in an ever changing media world Disney must be ready at little or no notice to react and change to quench consumer demands.Yes I want old attractions back because of all my fond memories as a kid(was at WDW in 71 when they opened) but realize that Disney has new generations of consumers every year and must change.I think Disney as a whole has done a good job in keeping current with trends and also keeping up with the quality and traditions of the Walt Disney Company.
After Walt died the traditionalists failed to see that in the 1970s the kids of the world had changed from the times when Walt was alive.They went from yes and no maam clean cut kids to more rebellious kids that thought anything to do with Disney was lame and thats why Disney almost shuttered prior to 84 when Roy got Eisner and Wells in to bring Disney back into the game.

Pfffft.... (not againExpo_Seeker40 said::dazzle: Maybe "THE ladder" provided the information for the Monsters Inc attraction...you know "inside" information. :hammer:
DisneyGrl85 said:I understand what you're saying. As far as POTC goes, I am a little upset...if it were for a Johnny Depp AA coming in. First it was, they made a movie based on the ride and because they are adding the characters from the movie it's like there's a ride based on the movie. Now it seems more the movies vision than Walts. Then again, I haven't seen the completed version.
speck76 said:In addition....Walt has been dead for 40 years, and the world has changed, and most likely, Walt's vision would have changed too......
The thing I never get from the traditionalists is that they still believe in the vision of 1966 Walt....but 1966 Walt was not the same as 1962 Walt, which was not the same as 1958 Walt, which was not the same as 1954 Walt.....(and so on)....this being the case...why do people think his views in 1966 are still applicable to 2006?....his views would have changed many many many times over....
hakunamatata said:I think Walt would have been more forgiving with a failed attraction because for him, it was more about the magic and creativity and not about the bottom line. Most do not realize, but Walt wanted to go with EPCOT first when they started the Florida project, but his brother Roy talked him into putting a Magic Kingdom in Florida first to help generate income and get people to coming to the property first.
LOL...Fair enough, but I'm sure you'll agree that the last thing we want is people being insulted when they ask a question.hakunamatata said:Not to sound argumentative...its not your thread. You neither own the server space that houses the thread that you started nor (to my knowledge)do you have the power to stop the thread. So, please be a little more respective of Steve, the person who actually owns this thread.
And, yes, Steve will probably tell me to shut up and mind my own business, but I felt it needed to be said. :wave:
imagineer boy said:I'm half and half. I'm not a person who goes "What would Walt do?" but his legacy must be upheld. Which is creating good quality family entertainment that launches its self beyond the competition.
Contrary to popular belief, I am all it for change. But as long as the change is GOOD. I'm all it for it. But, if they make it a crappy, shorter, poor quality shadow of what it once was, then HELL NO! They had the oppertunity to turn the original JII into something better, but instead, they decided to play it cheap, and give us a crap version. The same goes for the Tiki room, Sitch, ect.
