Sorry it took me so long to respond, been traveling…
[Let's look at the number 2, 3 and 4 parks on the list. DL, Tokyo DL and Tokyo DS are all over 12,000,000. DisneySea is 5 years old and it's kicking a__. Why? Investment! Their not sitting there saying "It doesn't need anything", they’ve been dumping capitol into all three of these parks and the results show. MK is the only anomaly.]
[First, dude, use the quote tags. It makes it SOO much easier to read. Thanks. You use do [ quote ] text here [ /quote ] without the spaces between the [ ] and quote]
>> Hope the [ ] help.
[Second. You CANNOT use Tokyo parks in any monetary argument. Oriental Land Company pays for basically everything over there, so they are in another league in terms of available capital for whatever they want to do.]
>> I am comparing parks and Tokyo has 2 parks. Further Tokyo makes money because of its quality and quantity of attractions, so I certainly CAN use it in a monetary discussion.
[Third, DL was in terrible shape as well up until the 50th. And the 50th was a lot of the same TLC that MK is getting now. Major refurbs of the classics. DL has not received anything new, really, either. The subs yes, but what was before that as a totally new attraction? Buzz and Pooh, and thats less than the MK has had, with Philharmagic.]
>> No disagreement, keep it referbed. My point however, remains: DL gets a huge base of APs due to its variety of attractions. DL blows away MK in quantity of E-Tickets (quality too, for the most part).
[Yes, the MK has less attractions than DL. But if DL had the same blessing of space that WDW has, there would be at least three parks there too, and the rides would be spread out there as well.]
>> Glad to see your acknowledgment. You don’t seem to get my point: MK not only has less (due to your theory of having more space I guess), but actually has -1 E-Ticket growth since Splash Mountain and -1 boat ride too (Swan Boats). Evert thing else at MK has been a replacement of something already there. Any fool can see that -1 E-Ticket growth since 1982 is pretty pathetic.
