There are less ear-jarringly awful ways to get the same message across. This slogan is just bad. It's like an exec's three year old kid came up with it while flinging froot loops off his cereal spoon.

Its a hashtag for a slogan. Hashtags are not meant to be grammatically correct.

"Come get more (fill in the blank) from the Disneyland Resort" is really what you're suppose to take away from this campaign. As shown in the above ad that darkbeer posted. In the world of social media and hashtags, they choose to emphasize the word happy because well its the Happiest Place on Earth.

Like I said I get why the grammar police are panning this. I just don't find it that bad, especially since its meant to be for the hashtag crowd.

It was nice of Disney to put out park maps that I don't have any interest hanging up on my wall.

appreciate your efforts, but... still lame
in spite (or because?) of it's relevance to twit-uh.

'get more' - more than what?

more than you got last year?
more than you'd have without going?
more than the dude across the street?
all of the above?
none of the above?

or is it actually just a clumsier, longer, 'relevant' version of "get happy" ... or, excuse me, "get happIER"

btw, just because it's trivial doesn't mean it's not dumb
:p

Again I think everyone is looking at this in the wrong way. Its a hashtag slogan.

The answer to your question "'get more' - more than what?", its not "more than what" that is what you are missing.

But its not my campaign so I don't care if anyone likes it or not. I was just trying to explain what they were going for.

And BTW, hashtags are not limited to twitter anymore. They are used everywhere in all social media now. And have even become part of everyday speech by the younger generations, which is who this ad campaign is meant for.

Hello world, here's a song that we're singin'
Come on, get *MORE happy
A whole lotta lovin' is what we'll be bringin'
We'll make you *MORE happy
We had a dream we'd go travelin' together
And spread a little lovin' if we'll keep movin' on
Somethin' always happens whenever we're together
We get a happy feelin' when we're singin' a song
Travelin' along, there's a song that we're singin'
Come on, get *MORE happy
A whole lotta lovin' is what we'll be bringin'
We'll make you *MORE happy
We'll make you *MORE happy

We'll make you *MORE happy

*Note - MORE Happy can be purchased for a $50/day surcharge for eligible Club Level Deluxe Resort guests

Not everyone speaks in hashtags. Some even know incorrect grammar when they see it.
 
is that really the issue people are having? that they think disneyland is suggesting we get increasingly more happy, but using bad grammar in doing so? because that's not what I'm reading it as. I'm seeing it as collecting more happy. You currently have 8 happy, but disneyland wants you to have more. where do you get more happy? At disneyland! happiness as a thing to collect, not as an emotion to be measured.

Just no.
