Dizzy Lizzie - coming soon
First of all, yes, the ride idea, as well as the poll, was more or less a joke. I hope that some of you were able to see the humor in a Lizzie McGuire ride idea. I still, however, think the idea is a cute one and I will continue to have pride in it much like a parent takes pride in an obviously ugly baby, heh heh.
That said, I think that Duff is a talented comedic actress well on her way to stardom. Disney should have probably provided her with her asking fee considering the amount of work and time she would have to put in under that contract - compared to film actors and their shortened work period. Not to mention the merchandise associated with the Lizzie personality. Lizzie is also one of the top reasons for why guests visit the Disney (channel) website. The Lizzie show was a breath of fresh air for the Disney Channel and replacing her will be a very difficult task.
As for her career being over, she just completed filming a Hollywood remake of Cheaper By The Dozen, staring a few comic celebs. Her cast of siblings includes the WB's Smallville's superman as her brother. She is also set to begin filming the classic Cinderella Story.
Comedy is not easy, but Duff has timing and expression down pretty darn good for her age. Her voice is a bonus. She has an "America's sweatheart" appeal to her and could possibly follow in the shoes of a similar sweatheart, Meg Ryan.

P.S.
In order to make up for the "not-so-great" Lizzie ride idea... I think Finding Nemo would be a great 3-D based attraction, something to compete with Universal's new "Shrek 4-D"
