I’d prefer a Star Wars land. Or the FoP ride system.
How about option D: None of the above?
Cars Land at DCA should stay as a DCA-exclusive. The unoriginal, unimaginative, and limited think they need to clone rides and lands around the world.

If Walt had taken that view you wouldn’t have WDW.How about option D: None of the above?

Walt didn't built WDW, but point taken.If Walt had taken that view you wouldn’t have WDW.
But this is also a company that should be able to do better.They often develop a land or ride with the intent of building multiple versions due to r/d costs. See Tron, MMRR, 7DMT etc.. As much as I'd like every ride to be unique it just isn't the way things work and I'd be cool with carsland being copied to a park on another continent.How about option D: None of the above?

The guy who said there wouldn’t be another Disneyland and that the theme park at Disney World would be its own thing?If Walt had taken that view you wouldn’t have WDW.

With a central hub and castle, a railroad running round the outside and some familiar rides and lands.
Yeah, totally different!

Walt was dead, he had nothing to do with the content of Magic Kingdom.

Way of Water is the biggest movie ever in France if you correct for US currency conversion changes. The Studios concept sort of faded completely when Star Wars dropped out, but I think a unique Pandora location still makes the most sense for variety in that park. It desperately needs more unique things, but Lion King is at least a good start.

I believe he had the idea of creating a new theme park in the swamplands of Florida. And set about buying up land to do so.
And the history I’ve read suggest he had a vision for MK, including differences between DL and Magic Kingdom for Fantasyland.
Are you saying he didn’t want any duplication between the two parks? That it was Ron who redesigned Walt’s vision and insisted they have a Castle in the middle surrounded by Lands etc ?

How is DHS messier than DCA? Atleast it has a theme rooted in hollywood from classics to films while DCA is supposed to be about California and has random stuff like Avengers and pixar pier.
Only MMRR was developed with the intent of cloning.

Am I right in thinking Galaxy’s Edge was also always intended to be duplicated across both US parks?
Yes. Once the DHS location was defined it was a simultaneous design. Even down to one being called East, the other West.

yeah… they both have gotten worse in recent years. Overall I still think DCA is a better and more complete park. It seems cleaner design wise with the big visual issue being guardians. But things are still grouped more sensibly and there are so many more attractions.

He agreed to do a second theme park in Florida but that was about it. When asked about it he said it wouldn’t be like Disneyland and that he wouldn’t really be that involved in developing the park because WED would be able to handle that. His focus was on EPCOT.
No actual design work on the park occurred during his lifetime. The Disney World master plan just used a placeholder copy of Disneyland (and no, that isn’t an indication of intent unless you believe the second park at Universal Beijing is going to be Universal Studios Florida). Roy didn’t redesign Walt’s vision because there was nothing to redesign.
