Well, they've also had Davey Crockett and Zorro, and I'm sure those were meant to reflect Disney characters. But when the characters also have a "real" counterpart - either literary or biological - I think guests' perceptions are not channeled towards specific actors.
As for ever going on Pirates again ... I'm very sad to report that - - once the spate of riding with newbies is over, it will no longer be a ride I suggest riding. I will never be a stick-in-the-mud and refuse to board if that's a group's choice. But I will never be the one to encourage it.
Likewise with Haunted Mansion.
Hmmm, the two Disneyland masterpieces off my ride-desired list. That's a crying shame. If Space Mountain really becomes unavailable at night next year, I'm going to seriously be questioning my desire to go to Disneyland at all. As most of you know, I'm not really there for the rides ... but changing my three absolute favorites into experiences I'd rather not have puts a damper on the whole Disneyland experience for me.
Bah, sad, sad, bah!
