I prefer the hat over the Chinese theatre, for a few reasons, honestly I think the hat was a more prominent icon to begin with, and you can't see the hat anywhere else. But technically I could go to California and see the Chinese theatre. And I've never seen Hollywood Studios without the hat, so I can't speak saying that the hat looks better, but I just prefer it.
agreed but many of us aren't used to the seeing studios without the hat...its become a well-known icon
Agreed that it did work itself into a sort of Icon, but, it was out of place and totally threw the view out of balance. People seem upset that they won't be able to see the BAH anymore. So all of you now know how the rest of us felt when that "thing" was put in front of the view of the theater. We had to deal with that, so I guess turnabout is fair play. And once again, for those that only read part of the threads. The Theater was never, ever and is not now considered an Icon. It was and is just a very nice, pleasant and totally in theme part of the park. Imagine, if you will, the hat placed in front of the Castle or the Tree of life or Spaceship Earth.
The hat was perfectly located.
I get it.
You could go to California and see the hat too.
Yes, and had it been anywhere besides where it was, it would have been a good one for DHS. It was an OK place for the Walt Disney's 100th Birthday celebration honoring his creation (almost obsession). But to leave it there after that was one of the worst decisions that they ever made.
As said, the Hat is also in Burbank. You could also go to Bavaria to see Neuschwanstein. Montreal to see a large geodesic dome. Hawaii to see a volcano. And I've got trees right outside!
Sure, but, a geodesic dome is not a geodesic sphere.
And to think that was built in 1966, the same year that Walt died.
I'm a little confused. How have you decided from what I have had to say about the BAH that I am complaining about it leaving. If they would let me I'd grab a hacksaw and help take it out. I know the meaning of the "freaking" Chinese Theater. I believe that I am pretty much as real as you can get. Thanks for the reprimand though. I sure have changed my way of thinking. Oh, wait.... that wouldn't be true would it?
