Theme park flaws

Me and my brother went to Disneyworld at least twice a long while ago. We enjoyed it. Disneyland is one of the most beloved places on earth. With it's many rides, attractions and other wonders it's like a beautiful dream. It's almost perfect, except for a few flaws. Here's what bugs us about it:

  • The long lines you have to wait in line in. It's torture waiting in line at some of the rides at Disneyland. At our theme park however you don't have to wait in line for the rides.
  • The damm creepy animatronics on some rides. We consider the Imagineers at Disneyworld to be geniuses but we consider their animatronics to be creepy beyond all reconisition. There are certain rides we "avoided" when we went to Disneyworld, mainly It's A Small World, Splash Mountain, Snow White's Scary Adventure and Haunted Mansion. We avoided those rides because some of them were frightening. We avoided the haunted mansion most of all because of the overall creepiness of it, we were disturbed by the animatronics. Luckily at our theme park, we don't use animatronics. We use holograms and other techno wonders to bring our vision to life.
  • The way the so called "mascots" behave sometimes. Disneyland is full of colourful characters, from Mickey Mouse to Hercules and all those in between. They are mostly very straight forward to approach, but however sometimes they act out of character. For example Buzz Lightyear hit on my mother and pinched her butt (i'm not kiding he really did that) and you might want to look out for anyone dressed as Gaston from Beauty And The Beast (although when we met Gaston he was a great guy, he gave me and my brother style tips) for sometimes they get a little extreme especially during the live shows. When we met him however he was completely different, he was a great guy. We were lucky to meet him- he is an extremely rare character around there. At our theme park, our characters are always on their best behaviour so you don't need to worry about them acting weird or anything.
  • Ticket prices. Disneyland is a wonderous place to go for a vacation but the ticket prices are expensive, so expensive that it would cost you an arm or a leg. Trust me, it cost my brother almost his entire life savings. At our theme park, the ticket prices are not too low and not too expensive to make it fair on the visitors.
  • Finding parking spaces. Like I said above, Disneyland is a wonderous place to go for a family vacation....that is if you don't mind having to put through the torture of having to find a good parking space. Trying to find a good parking space at the Disneyworld parking lot can be murder. There are never any good ones left once you get there. At our theme park however you don't have to worry about that.

We really like this one idea for a ride someone did, it's called Villain Mountain and it's a ride all about Disney villains. I think it would be a pretty awesome ride.

  1. Your amusement park sounds a lot better than Disneyland, but make sure that your Madonna Koala and Princess Andria meet-and-greet characters stay away from the alcohol, since when I drink alcohol, I can get anywhere from disoriented to the point that I lose my balance and my legs seem to have the rigidity of a jellyfish, to the point that I am cursing, projectile vomiting like I'd drank a gallon of Ipecac, am unable to stand up easily, and falling down whenever I try to walk, to being passed out in a random, undesirable location.
    Any of those would make your theme park as unpopular as Sarah Palin after it was discovered she abused her official power and had an unmarried teenage daughter.

  2. Oh don't worry, the Princess Andria character does not drink at all. She's trying to be more lady-like so she doesn't drink.
