Too bad there are none of the schumcks here on the LoT who insisted that DCA was just as barren of fun in its infancy as Disneyland was in its own, and who would brook no argument about zero-theme-park-industry 1955 being far different from Disney-dominated-theme-park-Earth 2001.
Well, here we are at DCA's fifth anniversary, and let's ponder for a moment the state of improvement at far-too-nearby Disneyland during its first half-decade. Has DCA improved a tenth as much?
I must say that Monsters, Inc. is perhaps my favorite ride in the park ... but if the surrounding "Campus" look improvements in that area are indicative of how they plan to revitalize the look of DCA, and if the C-Ticket dark ride Monsters, Inc. is the best they now have to offer ... then the place is as dismally doomed as I've been insisting for the past five, long, uneventful, unimproved-upon years.
Happy Birthday, Disney's California Adventure Park!
