IF the new additions fit the look and feel, it will soften the blow. I will still be non-plussed with the addition of the characters, in any style.

Of course, if anyone complains (to City Hall, etc.) once they put in the characters, they'll just be dismissed as a stupid Disney purist nut who doesn't like anything to change and/or is opposed to progress, they'll be given a note with that stupid out of context quote about Disneyland not being a museum and/or not being complete as long as there is imagination left in the world, and then will be kindly sent off on their merry way while the City Hall CMs roll their eyes and make fun of the stupid APs.

That's true, I first pictured a plush Simba from one of the Main Street stores sitting in there. But if they make them look like Mary Blair it will at least help some.

What is this make them look MaryBlairish fantasy?

Stich on a surfboard was apparently a coming attraction. He was not Blairified, and I don't expect the artificially inserted Disneytoons to be either. How much can a character be Blairistic and retain toddler recognizability anyways?

I realize it's not rational for me to expect them to be making rational decisions, but it was the only context I could imagine that would lead to someone thinking that was actually a good idea. I can't say I can agree with it, but if it was a Blaired-out Peter Pan flying around Big Ben, I could see some people thinking that was a way to add "Disney" to iasw.

(yes, I know iasw is plenty "Disney" on its own, but the powers that be, playing to an audience that apparently sees "Disney" as a world exclusively populated by direct-to-DVD animations, evidently disagree.)

Based on how far the Japanese have managed to distort Stitch from the archetype and yet still have it be recognizably Stitch, I'd say quite a bit.

Not that I have any idea that they would try.
