Same IP's in different parks

First of all, I completely agree with your arguments. I think some people state declaratively (is that a word?) that something is "lousy" or "excellent" when they really mean that this is their opinion. It tends to ruffle feathers when that really wasn't the intent (or was it?).

But while I think that Buzz and TSM are completely different experiences, Disney has duplicated itself with the spinners - AstroJets, Aladdin, Dumbo, the Dino thing in DAK. When it was just Dumbo and the AstroJets I could overlook the duplication. But now, how many freakin' spinners do we need?

Good point, never thought about it that way. thanks. lol

Parks sharing the same IP doesn't bother me. I care about the four parks having distinct identities. But IP to me does not create a theme, or place, or identity. At least did not until the current fashion of IP lands.

I think though it's kind of hard to create a "theme" with just one ride. like SW:GE is an entire theme but if you are only replacing TGM ride, well it's hard to create a "theme" with just that one space. so you get things like frozen replacing maelstrom. n
