Unpopular opinions about the parks?

Disney has gotten to be a an expensive hassle.
1. line up to pay for parking. (LOL your in line before you get out of your car)
2. park and line up for the tram.
3. get off the tram at ticket center and line up for monorail
4. get off monorail and line up for security
5. Line up at the turnstiles.
6. Hope you made reservation for the park...
7. hope you made fast passes
8. hope you made dinner reservations
9. stand in line for misc... Bathroom, snacks, characters and rides
10. line up for monorail to ticket center
11. line up for tram to car.
12. fight I-4 and/or 192
it all sounds like a fun way to blow couple of hundred bucks a person
Note to Disney: Charge an exit fee.

How's that any different than visiting any other Amusement park out there. Waiting in line has always been part of the process.

Looks accurate except for the fact that you do security before you go on the monorail.
Agree... I think it's tied for first place with Kilimanjaro Safaris and Tower of Terror, though. And Splash Mountain up until a year or so ago
I agree...but that's not an 'unpopular opinion'... that's just called having eyes

Universal is massively overrated. It’s an amazing regional theme park, which is what it seems to mostly be. I have an AP to UO and I couldn’t spend more than two consecutive days there. On the other hand, I could go to Disney World every day of the year.

That shouldn’t be an unpopular opinion though! There should be a parade in each park PLUS a night parade at MK!
yeah I feel like this is a popular opinion. I mean the parks definitely need more parades and non ride attractions. Imo this is where DAK succeeds because the trails and stuff are all great sources of entertainment for people who aren't looking to just go on rides

I’ll add this and duck…NOT a SW fan…never was, never will be…I think I’m the only 58 yo that never saw the 3 OG movies…I know of them, the characters but just not a fan. If SW land closed, I wouldn’t shed a tear…

I don't like shows without live music. I have grown tired of people dancing around to recorded music. Which is also why I do not watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Lip Sync Parade.
When I was a kid, I remember live bands in front of the castle. There should be more live entertainment in the parks, including adding a marching band to the parade.

Bean counters may have a word. Thousands of guests standing around don't spend money.

- Cosmic Rewind is better than Mission Breakout
- BTMRR and Space Mountain are far better at DLR than at WDW
- Toy Story Land is mediocre and could use improvements
- Disneyland After Dark is so much better than Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party and Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party combined

They do. They all buy snacks and balloons cause the kids are bored while they wait for the show to start. The “pre-parade” is all the ODV carts!
Minimal income for parks. What's nice is when thousands are waiting for parade to start , that's a better way to enjoy attractions . Speaking about waiting around, some families stake their spots by the lake in Epcot as early as 2pm for NYE fireworks 9 1/2 hours later.

Some of them even rope drop the spots along the fence between the two stores! It’s crazy!
ehhhhh night time parade = incentive to stay at the parks later = longer time spent in the parks for guests to purchase F&B/merch

Not minimal at all, ODV is quite significant.
