...and there's nothing wrong with spreading attraction out to the various WDW theme parks to complete the Guest's experience.
Yup, and I think DMGM needs the most serious help. Except for ToT, GMR, and RnR, there's nothing I *need* to ride there. I think DMGM has some great table service so I usually spend a morning, have lunch, and then I'm out.
And slate of attractions-wise, I think MK is in good shape. Being a frequent visitor of both MK and Disneyland, it's interesting to see that they really do target different (but intersecting) segments. Definitely two different energies. Anyway, it was nice to see that Pirates finally got some updated figures along with the Depp package, and I'm sure Mansion will too. The quality of figures in those attractions, since they use so much AA, was particularly sad compared to DL. If Internet rumors are to be believed, DL Mansion will get all of the delta MK effects except, obviously, for the "exclusive to MK" scene.
This might shock some WDW members, but I'm not terribly nostalgic about the subs for the same reason. Honestly, was the ride really that great? No. Mr. Toad and Alien Encounter were much better attractions that never should have been axed. (But Pooh is one of my favorite dark rides at the American Disney parks.)
I definitely agree about AE. Toad... well, I think our Toad was vastly superior to MK's Toad so I wasn't emotionally impacted like WDW locals were when it was removed. That said, MK's Pooh is vastly superior to ours for sure. But neither State-side Pooh's compare at all to Tokyo's. That was the 1st one I rode and, frankly, completely could care less about either of our Pooh's. Wow, taken out context................
Subs? Yeah, I didn't miss either Park's subs. I like Nemo well enough but I'm still a purist and believe Tomorrowland should be, oh I dunno, about Tomorrowland. I used to love MK's Tomorrowland - it's sad to see it going downhill just like Disneyland's. Our land makes no sense at all anymore. On the one hand we have Innoventions, Space, and Star Tours; on the other hand we have Buzz, Nemo, and HISTA. At least Tony is back and we're all hopeful he'll put it back in shape after the more immediate Disneyland projects.
