When did Disney World jump the shark?
I say it’s a tie between Space Mountain, and Epcot, which were
both built around the same time(late 70′s). DW lost its way big
time after that, and then just starting copying other parks ideas
(MGM studios-direct ripoff of universal; Animal Kingdom-direct ripoff of San Diego zoo). The more they build the more confusing and unruly it gets. Walt Disney himself had a whole different plan
in mind that would have been awesome if it was even approximately implemented. He intended EPCOT to be a cutting-
edge residential city of approx. 100,000, with an amusement park
(MK) in the middle, just like we have parks in subdivisions(or malls,
as in Mall of America). It was intended for visitors to see these
residents living and working in a super high-tech environment,
sort of like present-day SIngapore for a rough approximation.
Lots of people-mover-y things, all mass-transit, and cities visiting
and incorporating the same ideas on a much larger scale.
What got lost in the translation?
Yeah, let’s see how many pointless, bitching questions you can ask in a day. You know, you keep talking about the same thing in EVERY stupid question. Shut up, no one cares.
Though, the guy above gave a great answer, so he gets a thumbs up.
