    What would Walt do??

    If Walt was to tour the park today (and I don't mean DCA) what would be the first thing he would want to change, fix or add?

    Here we go again!

    Don't mean to be mean or anything. It's just that we seem to get one of these threads every month. Sometimes more.

    But I'm sure you'll get some new responses.

    The problem with this question is that no one knows what Walt would do, because no one really knew what Walt was going to do when he was alive. One of the problems with being an innovator, you see.

    I live 2 miles away from Disneyland if Walt would've built it at Riverside and Buena Vista.

    Don't worry about it! The reason it comes up so much is people DO wonder what Walt would be doing right now. Since this board discusses everything, (including trash can designs and stray cats).

    Some will say that we cannot know, but I believe that Walt is not so long deceased that people who knew him cannot respond to the question. Even if you did not know him, Walt was a very opinionated individual who did not shy from expressing his opinions publicly.

    Guessing is not wrong, but maybe not a sure thing either.

    He's new here. Cut him a little slack...

    Good question! And something that constantly needs to be asked if Disneyland wants to continue improving.

    Well, I appreciate that. At the same time, if I am going to contribute to the boards, new or not, I agree it is my responsibility to bring something new to the table... if I had thought about it for more than 2 seconds, I would have realized that this must be an old topic.... how could it not be??

    Again, thanks for the kind words.

    He'd probably want a change of clothes.

    He's been dead for 40 years!

    I think a more important question is 'what do people want?', as it is something Walt was always occupied with - entertaining the masses. That question is just as important - if not more so - than what one man would do. Disney often loses sight of the broad appeal than a genuinely family pitched idea has, rather than something that appeals purely to kids or adults respectively. Walt was good at reading the wishes of the people, and seeing what made some things work and others fail.

    I like to think he would bulldoze it and start over. "Hell, we can do better," he might say.
