Will the Disney Parks and Experiences presentation at this year's D23 be something work our excitement? Will the planned displays for Tiana's Bayou Adventure and the "new" Epcot make us beyond excited? Most importantly, will these additions be significant even to compete with Epic Universe down at Universal Orlando Resort?
In a word, "NO!" Walt Disney Imagineering may have very grand plans for each of the parks, but let's be honest- they are not running the ship that Walt Disney built. Bob Chapek is, and it seems he has little desire to really stay competitive by building the attractions that blow away guests expectations. He'd rather just increase profits by taking advantage of guests and offering less for more money. Disneyland, Walt Disney World or in any other of their resorts, fleecing the faithful is his course.
At this stage of things, I'm not liking what I'm seeing. The Bargain Basement Imagineering a la California Adventure 1.0 is about to begin again.
