Right, thrill rides don't attract people, that is why Disney built RnR, ToT, EE, closed WoM for TT and destroyed Horizons to build M:S. Of course they broke attendance records after making thos changes.
As far as CP being compared to the Disney parks goes it is like trying to decide who is better at basketball - the Denver Broncos or the Seattle Mariners.
They are 2 different kinds of parks and CP is a great place as are any of the Disney parks.
Don't get me wrong - Splash Mountain and Expedition Everest are beautifuly themed rides, but sometimes those big steel behemoths are beautiful in their own "magical" way!
