There isn’t a more talked-about aspect of the Disneyland Resort than the new Avengers Campus expansion. Opening last summer, the new land promised a Marvel-centric experience, complete with characters like Spider-Man, the Guardians of the Galaxy, Black Widow, and more.
The land also features two attractions in the form of WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure as well as Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: BREAKOUT!.
Here Guests can live out their own Marvel adventures surrounded by iconic characters, food, and rides. Despite the exciting new additions and experiences to the Southern California Resort, a lot of fans have not been completely convinced by Avengers Campus. Some Guests were upset that this new land replaced an older land themed to A Bug’s Life (1998) and still feel like it doesn’t compare to the original Pixar-inspired area.
Disney even teased this with Ant-Man holding a shrunken replica of the land that Avengers Campus replaced. Recently, Disney added onto this land in a very small way, but the impact has been big online with many Guests disliking it.
See the tweet that sparked this debate below shared by Patrick Dougall (@PatrickADougall):
As you can see, a seating area has been set up in Avengers Campus, complete with umbrellas for shade. While thoughtful, many did not like this addition to the new land, as it messed with the ambiance as well as the overall theming.
Probably because it’s one of the worst designed theme park lands Disney has ever done… it’s just over all bad use of space and bad design. This looks like something I would see at SixFlags

While this was a solid attempt at giving Guests more seating and shade, we can’t help but agree that this new setup clashes with the land’s aesthetic and atmosphere.
