Its the I think Disney Is Great Thread Even If:

[Hakunamatata]

Ok. For everyone who really likes Disney and needs to express it.

I think Disney is great even if:

1. They railse prices every year just like any other business.
2. Run the the company to make a profit.
3. Don't open a theme park on every piece of property in the United States that they purchase.
4. Don't enforce the refillable mug policy.
5. Don't allow pool hopping.
6. Don't let me open the park.
7. Didn't let me stay in the Cinderela Suite.
8. Have not built Beastley Kingdom.

I will post more as I think of them.

 

[Master Yoda]

1. Sold 900 acres of WDW to the world's leading operator of luxury hotels and resorts.
2. Took the spiders out of the Haunted Mansion.
3. Replaced Horizons.
4. Only allow 4 to a room in nearly every value and moderate resort.
5. Offer free dining nearly every year.
6. Want to book every event, restaurant, and resort to 100% capacity as soon as they can.
7. Don't spend hundreds of millions of dollars expanding a transportation system just because it is "cool".

I think Disney grates.

 

[MKCP 1985]

I think Disney is great even if I don't have a clue about Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers or any number of current Disney channel programs directed to the ankle biters.

Even if they closed the Adventurer's Club and murdered the Living Seas with......oh my.....a fish.

 

[MaxsDad]

They are great even if:

1. They "Keep moving forward", eventhough my hearts longs for the nostalgia of my younger past.
2. They continue to charge more for a product, but offer less of it in return (see DDP over the last 3 years)
3. They seem to think that I find it wise to pay as much as $80 a ticket for the privledge to spend money in a multitude of gift shops and over priced eateries, and oh yeah, see few attractions too.
4. They continue to mold the parks to the "tween" age group, eventhough the parks were intended to be enjoyed by the whole family. It's as if they think the kids control the family nowdays, so lets target them.
5. By always looking "forward", they seem to be losing sight of what lies "behind" them: the founding principle of their existence, for that is what made them unique, and brought them to excellence. One can not maintain excellence by accepting mediocrity even in the smallest of detail. Especially when done in the short-sighted vision of America's "I want it all now for free" mentality, and its corporate bean counter "greed through timidity" approach to capital management.

Replaced Alien with Stitch.

[Mammymouse]

1. They have those 360 degree movies that give my whole family migraines.
2. We can't pool hop to Storm-a-long Bay if we stay at Boardwalk.

 

[stargrl33]

1. they use whole wheat buns in the parks
2. they keep upping their prices without upping the experiences
3. they are an evil corporation (all corporations are evil.)
4. they never have any new charms for me to buy for my charm bracelet.
5. they keep making 3D attractions (I can't see the 3D! all I see are two seperate images. and yes, I have my 3D glasses on.)

 

[SirNim]

- they have a tendency to not run spell-, grammar-, and fact-check on every piece of printed promotional material, signage, or merchandise that is presented, displayed, or sold across their "twice the size of Manhattan" property

- it's notorious for internal politics (not unlike many other American organizations)
