At Walt Disney World, they have a greater amount of guests who come from different parts of the country and different parts of the world. It takes much less change for these guests because they don't frequently go to the park, therefore the novelty of the attractions last longer for them than a person who goes to the parks on a weekly or bi-weekly basis.
So, the demand for change at Disneyland is much more higher than the demand for change at Walt Disney World.

Soarin at WDW=most popular ride in resort
Soarin at DLE=pretty popular
TLMAUA at DLR=mostly criticized
TLMAUA at WDW=will be a HUGE hit
The list could go on and on
The truth is that you cant realy please people who oversaturate the resort with their presence and thereby get bored very easily.
I mostly frequent WDW, but whenever I do make it out to Disneyland and ride Nemo, I always think it's one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.
Of course, I also I remember the pain of having our own submarine attraction closed and paved over, and being tremendously excited when I heard that there would be a submarine ride being reopened somewhere.
You all fascinate me, haha.

Cheap! That's why Disney spent a billion dollars on the resort. Got it!

^El owe el. Fixing something Disney built on the cheap.
Re: With Finding Nemo 2 announced, Are the Subs safe?
Keep in mind they tore out the Country Bear Jamboree just in time for the movie to come out...
(although I would have to think that Finding Nemo 2 would be better than the Country Bears movie)
Re: With Finding Nemo 2 announced, Are the Subs safe?
I'm just a bit confused about what the sequel will be about...will they lose him again? ;)
I'm neutral on the situation with the subs. I rode the original Submarine Voyage and only remember going inside the sub and being terrified of the soundtrack. I remember the Nemo subs much better simply because I've ridden them twice since its opening. Videos, brief childhood memories, pictures, and even audio prove to me that the original was better. Would I have liked to see an improved version of the classic with more intensity and better effects? Of course. Heck, I'd even have liked to see the Atlantis Expedition realized.

Ok well put, but DLR also is becoming that way too. One of the reasons they added, well probaly only reason they added DCA was to turn Disneyland into; kind of a West Coast Version WDWR. So I think a lot of our stuff has a lot of staying power. Infact with the technology the used for Finding Nemo, with the exception of a few props they con relitivly easly change it to a far diffrent experience.

Re: With Finding Nemo 2 announced, Are the Subs safe?
It seems to me that the biggest of Nemo's problems (to the company at least) is it's high cost of maintenance. If Tomorrowland is indeed in the crosshairs right now for a revitalization and/or reboot then demolishing Nemo serves two appealing purposes (makes a lot of space for new attractions and eliminates the maintenance cost).
Nemo 2, even if successful, will not save the subs but I think it will bring some relevancy back to Turtle Talk.

What I think JerrodDRagon meant by cheap was not that the Company doesn't have money because we all know that's not true, but they are leaving Captain EO around when something better could replace it. Captain EO isn't great. It was alright in the 80's but let's face it - they brought it back because he died. It had decent crowds when they re-opened it but they have since tapered out and you can walk on pretty much any time of the day.
Back to JerrodDRagon's comment of "cheap." I think he meant that there are multiple things they could do to the Magic Eye Theater (heck, tear it down for all I care) but they are leaving something mediocre at best there. In essence, taking the cheap route and leaving something sub-par instead of upgrading it in some way.
Just my two cents.
