You’re acting like the perfection that is Pandora and Cars Land never happened. You’re acting like Rise of the Resistence is not an elite ride. You’re acting like Ratatouille wasn’t PURE expansion, or that Cosmic Rewind isn’t a blast, and that Runaway Railway isn’t either. And for every Toy Story Land, there’s been a Galaxy’s Edge, so I’m not really worried about misses to be honest. I also doubt that they’ll be removing any more major rides like GMR going forward given Iger’s comments about expansion and Disneyland opting to not replace anything for MMRR.
I also genuinely think virtually all of the new restaurants additions have had pretty good food (outside of Space 220, though it looks stunning!): Regal Eagle, Connections Eatery, Docking Bay 7, Satu’li Canteen, Woody’s Lunchbox, Be Our Guest, etc. Awful places like Cosmic Ray’s seems to be a remnant of the past.
I’m not arguing things are perfect, far from it, but if even just a fraction of $17B finds its way into WDW, I would take it with open arms.
Maybe I’m just more optimistic having just been to Disneyland Resort (which I prefer to Orlando), but in my mind, having more high-quality rides per park like these can bring WDW closer to Anaheim’s level.
That’s a good thing.
