I don't understand why people want stuff from the other parks. I want original/amazing rides. I don't want clone copies of whats in other parks.
I'm not hating. I love Duffy. I think he's great. But DL and WDW have plenty of stuff in common. But if you want Matterhorn, Pinnochio, Casey Jr., and other classic rides then you go to DL. They can't make carbon copies of theme parks. There just isn't a clear point to it. I'm going to Disneyland in August because it's a different park. I wouldn't go if our Magic Kingdom was directly like it and the only difference was a couple rides.
But the main difference is basically "a couple of rides"! Mainly the ones missing from our Fantasyland. Let's face it, if MK was missing Pirates or Mansion or Splash or Space or Thunder, lots of people on here would want those rides added to the MK. But because my favorites missing from the MK are supposedly lowly "C-tickets" from Fantasyland, people keep saying we shouldn't have them because Disneyland does. Seems like a major double standard to me! When the MK gets rid of all the other so-called "clones" that were adopted from Disneyland originals, only then will the argument that we can't have these Fantasyland rides because Disneyland does, hold any water IMO.
Now, of the MANY rides that are common to both parks, there are differences (some major, some minor) between all of these rides on both coasts. This I can agree with, and would be more than enough to make me want to visit both parks, as would the variations of themes and layouts of the parks themselves.
But like I said, I wasn't looking for a debate; I was just answering the OP's question honestly. I wasn't expecting people to object so much to my wishes and faves just because Disneyland has them!
The reason why we both have Pirates, Thunder, Splash, etc. is because those are staple rides.
Yes, and for my taste, the Fantasyland dark rides that we are missing are among MY staple rides, with regards to my own tastes, which is why I listed them as being on my wishlist. I'm not suggesting that everyone else should feel the same way or that the majority do, I'm just explaining why I listed them as being "my project Z". even though Disneyland has them.
