I agree. DHS is in a rut and could use a nice overahul. We shall see.

I would imagine the bulk of WDW expansion money post-Fantasyland is for Pandora/Avatar over at AK. For DHS, it indeed would be great to see some of the elements of DCA remake brought over. The criticism of TDO being value focused I think it is a tad harsh. It's not like DHS needs to budget for attractions like Toy Story, Little Mermaid, or even WOC. They would just need an E-ticket that can push the food & merch sales of an themed attraction like the revenue generated by Carsland. I would be not be suprised to see DHS go for a Toy Story Land, like at the overseas parks, before adding a high budget E-ticket.

^DHS already has Toy Story Midway Mania, if that's what you meant.

And I don't know about a Toy Story Land. DCA has Cars Land and WDS has the Toy Story Land. What about Monsters Inc? Or just a mixed bag of different Pixar themed rides and shops, since that area is called Pixar Place.

They could even re-theme Honey I Shrunk the Kids play area to A Bugs Life.

I could never see a Toy Story Land in the US parks... or at least not the same version that have recently gone in overseas.

What parks have Toy Story Land? Hong Kong and Disney Studios... the two smallest Disney parks out there. Toy Story Land is VERY low capacity, and I just don't think it would work considering the US park's attendance figures.

Think about it... could you imagine the line for an Intamin Half Pipe in one of the Florida parks? It'd be terrible!!

Ugh, I heard Walt Disney Studios was awful.

And "Toy Story Land" would definitely be awful. And I'm not even sure about the "Monsters Inc. door coaster" rumor that's been floating around forever. It just doesn't sound appealing.

I would like to gain an honest opinion about you all, or Y'all's experience in the Parking Lot at DHS... Today is actually my last Day in the DHS Parking Lot crew (Transfered to Tower Of Terror), and I'm curious to hear what you all have to say...

Oh of course. I was just there Tuesday! I don't think I've ever seen a rude or mean castmember. And you're going to work at Tower of Terror? I'm jealous.
