But in general, isn't that what it's about? Good show? I remember when I first started going to MP (several years ago looking for info on the Grand Californian) the general complaints were the condition of the park, underwhelming DCA, new Tomorrowland, lack of originality, lack of investment, etc. If these things are being fixed - and it certainly seems like they are - then doesn't that alleviate most of the reasons for complaints?
Matt O seems to know what to do and how to get it done. The conditions for the 50th are (from what I've heard ) incredible. Tomorrowland is getting resolved. New rides, though not all original, are going in and investment is assuredly being made, with even more planned for the former motorboat cruise area. I would guess that DCA will get more and more investment as issues at DL are resolved. Monsters Inc represents investment, and they have to invest more to get people there, as they can't afford to let it die.
Now, it could be that Disney and Gold are forcing these things to happen due to their actions and Eisner and Mitchell and Iger are allowing and encouraging investment to sort of defer the criticisms of Disney and Gold. It could be that all the investment and improvement stops once Disney and Gold go away or this is entirely resolved. Who knows. But with all that's going in to the park(s) at present, it seems like fevered support for Disney and Gold must be hard to generate.
And wendybeth, thanks for the billing. I feel appeased.
