Could care less about how they do it at other places. <br />All you construction and biz experts must be billionaires, what with your highly advanced knowledge, expertise, and such. Kind of wonder why you bother to spend so much time bashing Disney's way, as it's so inferior to your own.

But there are 2 points to consider. 1) much of the pre contruction occures and is hidden from view. Attractions close and are removed in the off season, sometimes several years before the new coaster is built. No one knows why an attraction is closed, and is removed, until after the new one appears. 2) Cedar Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03552305508467675586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5527909922658295790.post-38200514912698602772016-04-15T08:40:00.680-04:002016-04-15T08:40:00.680-04:00The park is now relying on Star Wars everything. ...The park is now relying on Star Wars everything.

At the rate of speed Disney builds, we won't be seeing Toy Story until at least 2019 but I am leaning towards 2020. Star Wars will be even later at 2021 or 2022. It just boggles my mind that Disney, with all their money, can't build things as quickly as Universal does. <br /><br />I mean,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5527909922658295790.post-11654750961528575882016-04-13T17:56:04.721-04:002016-04-13T17:56:04.721-04:00@anonymous At least they actually kept this area!...@anonymous At least they actually kept this area!
