Milling around for an appointment will never be as good as those well-designed queues that constantly flow.
There are less of those now that FastPass has stopped the constant flow on many. And this milling-about just sounds like their second shot at what FastPass was hoped to accomplish, i.e., more people buying things instead of wasting non-spending time trying to get on one of those pesky rides or attractions.

Agreed, agreed, agreed. Insightful post. I didn't even think of the Matterhorn until you mentioned it.

The most themed queues are also pretty irritating to stand in because of the NOISE of all the people stuck in the cavernous line with you. Indy, Roger Rabbit. The idea of being stuck in an arcade with a bunch of kids for an hour or more sounds like hell. Parents don't put up with Chuck E Cheese more than a couple times a year. Can you imagine waiting in more than one of these "lines" in one day?
The ideas you mention are intriguing but all I can think of is the noise, noise, noise.
