Typical! I wonder if they’d try that with the Eyes song I posted?

I wonder how much of the decision to expand their theme park operations in California was driven by the hostility the company has been facing in Florida.

Probably a good deal of it… Or at least some of it.

Probably very little. Disneyland was in California before Disney considered Florida for anything. It’ll likely still be in California after the sea of ignorance has risen up and swallowed Florida.

At some point in the future, Disneyland will be California, and California will be Disneyland.
Probably after the San Andreas Fault finally did its thing and turned The Golden State into an island.

Agreed. You don’t make decisions like this based on short-lived issues like this, and Disney already has approvals for multiple new parks on their property in Florida anyway.
Disneyland has it’s own unique challenges that stem from a land rush that happened when they opened their gates (that actually caused Walt to go looking for more land elsewhere in the first place) compounded by there being a rather large and populated city surrounding the parks that represent a huge part of its business, despite huge external interest to visit “the original park” as well. They absolutely need to expand at this point just to meet demand.

So, the main attraction will be Pirates of the Pacific?
