@RSoxNo1 UP! is definitely a mess. I guess I defend ROL, because while there are some issues, I think the music is beautiful and the bones are there. I can agree it can appear to be underwhelming to those looking for a major wow moment. It's never going to have fireworks. Adding Circle of Life won't bring a wow moment. So I mean, it kind of is what it is. It can be tightened and changed a bit, I suppose. But it'd be a shame to lose it to an IP fest. Not that it can't blend the two, but we know they won't do it how they should, instead it'd be an IP fest. I only asked because you kind of hammer it home a lot how 'awful' it is, so I was just wondering ... lol So is it a "bad" show to you or just "underwhelming"? Because I think there's a difference (not that it matters, lol, just saying) I also defend the AMP suit because I think it helps and makes sense to see the person wearing it. I know people probably cry "cheap" but I think it was a design choice to be more appealing to guests. I want to see the guy and interact with him and talk to him. But that's me. I personally don't think you need to really know anything about Avatar to appreciate the land, but it makes sense to me to have the guy in the AMP suit explaining things to guests. I like it. We need more of these things. I just think certain things deserve a fair more bit of support instead of constantly nitpicking. We all have things we prefer. Things we would do differently. I really don't see anything wrong with the AMP suit. The new FOW didn't have to be lazy. It could have been a really nice show implementing Russell and Dug and utilizing the caretaker in a different way. It's a real shame they kind of screwed this up, but since many guests consider it "fine" or "ok" ... many on here have been quick to say it's not that bad, which gives them the continued excuse to do things half-you-know-what because guests will accept it. In this case they should have knocked it out of the park. You can create an interesting new show using the characters. It's truly not that hard. But, is the new show "bad"? I haven't decided. Like you with ROL, I was underhwelmed and disappointed because I expected something different. So because I expected something different, does it make what's there bad? Well ... in this case, I think so ... lol We actually mostly agree but differ slightly. Glad to know you love the park though.
