I am glad to have moved away and my premium pass expired. I wouldn’t want to see these changes to Disneyland and DCA.
Will they have a Wakanda section for “advanced” folks?
One of the problems that Disney has faced over the last 50 years is their selection of park presentations. They are quick to put in a theme area based upon a movie hot at the time. But as they don’t get it into circulation for a number of years down the road, they have to replace it to continue to draw a new, or renewed, audience.
A real good example is the Main Street Electrical Parade. Way ahead of its time, it has “popped up” in the Parks and has never been replace with anything like it. And in all honesty, the technology is still with the time.

So lemme get this straight...
A park that used to be filled with wonder, learning and good memories is now full of storm troopers walking lock-step with guns, telekinetic space-wizards who maim people with prejudice with devastating swords of pure energy and then blow up planets... and now a team of people who beat up people, -Most of the time EACH OTHER- and carry swords, guns, suits of armor, hammers and even a bow and arrow for good measure.
That’s what Disney is now ? Pass. Thanks.
Whenever we go to a Disney park (CA or FL), we always start with the classics from my childhood: It’s a Small World, Pirates of the Carribean, and Haunted Mansion. Then we do the other stuff.
I remember riding Haunted Mansion when it first opened, many eons ago.
And we can’t have children learning the moral of The Ant and the Grasshopper now, can we?
Was at Adventure Land on Wednesday what was nice about the bugs ride is that the lines were short and my 4 year old could do all the rides. As opposed to the other end of the park where she was not 42”.
But she loved seeing Elsa and Spider-Man. So having a Marvel theme rides may be a good business decision.
Also note that Disneyland is split into 2 parks now, the fore mentioned Adventure land and Disneyland Park (the old single park).
I found their fastpass system to be useless, but I liked their maxipass where you paid $10 and can download all the pics taken by the park photographers.
