It’s sad that Walt worked so hard to make something special and these Corporate Vultures can ruin it in one giant ax swing.
Glad I can remember the old Disney World.
This just proves you can be an idiot and still control other people’s dreams and imagination. Walt would never let this happen. But Disney money hungry baboons are enforcing their will on us ‘TRUE DISNEY FANS’.
I’m concerned that cars land in frontierland ripping up rivers of America is going to look like an eyesore. I wonder if this Piston peak cars ride going to be a hit or a flop. I’m concerned it’s going to a slow boring cars ATV ride even worse than Tianas Bayou Adventure. The Disney imagineers should have moved it north past former Rivers of America merging with villains land. I don’t think the cars ride is going to do well with Disney park guests. If they don’t have a forest fire storyline with Dusty crophopper saving cars, then I’ll be disappointed. The cars race in Disneyland California adventure was a big hit and it was fun to ride. I can’t say the same for a slow cars ATV ride. If this flops, then they should retheme it to cars horseless carriage ride or cars model t ride instead and bring in a small sized river steamboat for the small river to match with Tianas Bayou Adventure and retheme frontier land to New Orleans square at Disney world.
In a way, the park is slowly dying. All the trees on Tom Sawyer Island are gone. The sound of water and the whistle of Liberty Belle. I cried when I was there recently. All boarded up and destroyed. Add to the park, dont take away. Not everyone wants fast and furious.
Tom Sawyer Island is not gone and is open right now. Cars Land is fake and never coming to WDW. I have my photo on the Liberty Belle with a date stamp of October 1, 2046 which is WDW’s 75th. Pixar is going away for good due to Disney being broken up as a monopoly.
Disney is gone. Now it’s just another amusement park with no cohesion.
Greed and wokeism has ended Walt’s vision for good. At least my kids got to go before it was all wiped away.
I’m not opposed to change or progress but these changes are going to impact the guests immursion into the lands… It’s not ALL about the rides or the shows… It IS about the experience, the feel, . The corporate greed is removing that immursion into the land.
Disney has made the mistake of expanding Park size over adding additional Parks.
The fatal flaw is that people can only walk a limited distance and wait so many hours in line during Park hours. Making Parks larger and adding more guests at the same time only compounds the problem and takes away from the Disney experience. Imagine having to walk farther, wait longer, and work your way through bigger crowds, all while having to pay a higher price to see less. That’s what the Disney Parks experience has become. Pay more, suffer more, see less, and get frustrated.
Instead of increasing Park size, crowd size, wait times, distance you have to walk, (often with kids), they could have added more Parks. They had more than enough land for that. Then it would be possible to add more experience and new attractions without ripping out so many originals and overcrowding the existing Parks.
The reality is a Park should only be just big enough to enjoy in one or two days. A Park shouldn’t be so crowded you can’t easily get around with kids. A Park shouldn’t be so crowded you have to wait more than an hour in line for any attraction.
Time is money, and the more time you spend walking long distances, pushing through crowds, waiting in long lines, the less you get for that exceptionally high ticket price. Bigger isn’t always better for the guests.
But Disney hasn’t been about the quality of the guest experience for many years now. It’s become about squeezing in more guests and squeezing out as much money as you can from there pockets.
Walt’s dream was all about the guest experience.
Corporate Greed has destroyed that dream.
So here’s the deal Nick, my family and I were at the parks last week (we even walked with children, shocking) and had a blast! Your opinion is your own and you’re absolutely entitled to it but man do you just sound like a negative bitter angry person…I’d hate to go through life like you.
There have been attractions in the park with hourlong plus waits since the 70’s. Peter Pan and 20,000 Leagues were always 60+ minute waits and then with the replacement of Mr Toad’s Wild Ride with Winnie The Pooh in the 90’s, another perennial hourlong wait was born. Even Snow White would creep up into the 69 minute range in the summer.
I’ve been a regular visitor to the parks since July of 1973 and have visited the Magic Kingdom more than 1,000 times. I worked as a bus driver in the late 80’s back when the grand hub of activity was the TTC and drivers interacted with guests, delivering spiels about the parks and property along each of the appointed routes. I went to the Magic Kingdom every day after work. It truly was magical.
What’s happening today is wrong. The design principles of the park should have been retained and additional transportation options to the more remote corners of the park should have been added to afford guests the ability to timely reach the newer, more distant themed areas. What’s happening is borderline sacrilege.

Magic Kingdom is my favorite park! We go as often as possible. As far as “Cars Land” goes, it should be over in Hollywood Studios with the other Cars attraction.
This Villains attraction sounds exciting but I don’t believe they had to make all those sightlines changes to make it. It should go off storybook land somehow.
I don’t believe that the powers that be really thought this through and put these places where they make the most sense!!
Walt is probably turning in his grave at this ruination of his beautifully designed park😢
No Cars Land or Villains Land is ever coming. They’re fake. I have a Time Machine and can confirm. I was at WDW’s 75th in 2046 and the Rivers of America is alive and well. WDW in 2046 will be literally locked in the early 1990s and will stop adding new things becoming reliant on the Disney name alone.
This is yet again another factor proving Bob Iger DOES NOT CARE about traditional. He’s said point blank the days of themeing are over. WALT Disney World is no longer a theme park. It is just an amusement park that only cares about stuffing as many IP (Intellectual Properties) intonation as much as possible. Look at EPCOT. Walts vision was for it to be a place of education both of science, environmental preservation and cultural differences. Not any longer. Now it’s how many movje tie Ina can it have. Gone are thr Commnicors that taught about technology achievements and duties projects. Gone is Body Wars teaching about how the body works. Gone is Universe of Energy. Gone is Figment and the Dreamfinder teaching about how kids minds and ideas are endless. Gone is The Malestrom showing the culture of Norway in place of Frozen. And not a lesson. Just Frozen. Over in Hollywood Studios (which it shouldn’t even be called anymore) is the Great Movie Ride that celebrated movie making over the course of time. Gone is the Backlot tour showing how movies and TV were made. Gone is Muppetvision 3D showing thr magic of Jim Hensen…oh joy we get a Rollercoaster most children won’t even make the height requirements for. Animal Kingdom…gone is Dinoland USA. Heck…I’m surprised there are animals there at all still
Disney no longer cares about the values Walt held dear. All they want is to make money and more money. They don’t want families there anymore. They want single groups or couples that make 6 figures who want to eat very expensive cupcakes and drink alcohol anywhere in the parks they can. They have failed as a family entertainment company and embraced greed to the utmost fullest. Walt Disney World as it was meant to be, is dead

I’m sorry everyone, my mom locked me in my room again yesterday for my own protection. I’ll try to be more positive.
