I couldn’t see why Disney thought this would sell when they originally announced it. After all its as far away from Universal and downtown Orlando as you can get. The only draw is Disney…and the plan was to create a non-Disney experience. They’dve done better to build a new small draw of some kind.

As a percentage the numbers of cast laid off is very small, come to the UK and see whole factorys closed with the loss of thousands of workers, British Airways just this week announced another 1,500 people to go. Disney has to look long term and seize opportunties like Marvel to secure its revenues and ... See all content

As a past castmember and now a tourist from overseas it is very interesting to read the comments posted here. One should remember that without the vision of Walt Disney, Orlando would never have become the huge thriving community it is today, in all probability it would have remained an area dominated by orange groves. I have travelled from the UK to Disney twice this year and even with my critical ... See all content

The parks are not falling apart at all.
Go walk thru a developed city or suburban track in the us right now.
Disney is still maintaing their property even with the horrible economy, buildings are still being refurbished, paint is still being applied, and things are still being fixed.
Huge rehabs are still happening and big construction projects are taking off at WDW, which
