Interesting stuff. I wonder if even bicker would finally acknowledge the fact that DCA is a BOMB! With this move Disney has.

I *do* wish people would give DCA a break... I know I'm in the minority (gate figures don't lie - much), but I really enjoy DCA. I like the coaster, I love Soarin', I like the hints of N.Ca (home), I adore the Animation exhibit, my SO likes the Soap Opera Cafe... I could go on, but the point is that there are a lot of good points to DCA that get glossed over in the general 'nay-saying' about the park. DVC, Have you even been there yet?
Please explain to me why I should give DCA a break...but don't rely on your experinces. Tell me what makes DCA such a revolutionary park? What makes it different than a six flags?
- sorry I know it's a personal experience, but I figure I'm quoting previous text.I'm not saying the park is as good as Disneyland or even Epcot, but it doesn't seem to me as horrible as all the bad press makes it.
If you've decided that DCA (or DL, or MK, or AK) is going to be awful, you won't see the wonderful details or experience the thrills that are to be found.
Anyone who doesn't think DCA is a horrific bomb is really under the spell. Why cut your prices during the busiest time of the year? Do they cut the prices at the hotels during the summer? No.
which, by the way, disproves the its the economy, stupid excuse for DCAs performance problems
Ahhhh! How proud Walt would be!P.S. some Disney people are starting to refer to the new park as WMW WalMart World.
Yes! Thank you, my dear AV!! That reminds me, it's time for the quote of the day!!!!...but Im tired and will spare everyone (its also part of my penance for introducing Landbaron to the book of Walt quotes).
When I started on Disneyland, my wife used to say, "But why do you want to build an amusement park? They're so dirty." I told her that was just the point - mine wouldn't be.
JeffJewell has also recently acquired "The Quotable Walt Disney" based largely upon its mention in these forums.penance for introducing Landbaron to the book of Walt quotes
Universal did create the motion simulator/IMAX combination over a decade again. Soaring is just a minor variation on that ride concept.
Two ways to look at it. You're probably right that there are people making "like it or don't like it" judgements without any personal experience, and that's silly.I'm not saying that DCA is a success, since it is obviously short of expectations, but I am saying that I think the media is making it out to be worse than it is.
Wow! A family of 4 can go for $66.From June 20 and going through September 4, Southern California residents can purchase a one-day adult ticket to Disney's California Adventure at the child's price of $33. In addition, for each adult ticket purchased one child (ages 3-9) can enter free. That means both an adult and child can enter DCA for $33.
