I think a lot of people would the same exact thing mrferret pointed out...but they would say it in a more negative tone. WDW will always be my favorite vacation spot no matter what. I could go on and on how the bubble affects emotionally and psychologically in a positive way. But people do make some valid points about the flaws of WDW. One example is that Epcot and Hollywood Studios haven't added a ride in quite some time and both could use a few more. Not to compete with Universal per say but rather, to add more experiences and provide families with more memories to cherish. Though I would argue the only reason those two parks should add new rides is to help cut down the wait times for Toy Story Mania and Soarin'!
The huge investment towards MyMagic and Fastpass+ was not a smart investment given how there are many stories of the Magic Bands malfunctioning constantly, My Disney Experience being notoriously slow and people losing their Fastpass+ reservations to name a few. I thought New Fantasyland was fine but from what I've read, not everyone is on board with that. Avatar Land and Disney Springs, I'm on the fence for both. I'm not dreading it but I'm not overly excited about it either. And they constantly raising prices so that makes me wonder: Am I, or anyone else for lack of a better word, not valued and wanted as a customer? I'm not aggravated and frustrated like some people are but I am genuinely concerned that they only see the dollar bills and not customer satisfaction and input. Why are they settling for complacency when I fear they are settling for nothing?
Universal obviously has done so much in the past five years with their Harry Potter expansion and new rides for Despicable Me and Transformers. But I think why so many Disney fans call out and criticize the Universal fans is that they accuse them of "jumping on the Universal bandwagon" and being a "traitor", assume they never actually went to Universal and are praising Universal for the sole purpose of insulting Disney's actions or lack thereof and furthermore say that Universal was nothing before Harry Potter came along, which is entirely debatable. Since I haven't been back to Universal for quite some time, I can't comment on how good or bad the parks are. I need to make that judgment for myself. Some people have very high standards and they have the mindset that everything needs to be perfect because businesses not only have to make money, but they have to continuously provide the best service and products so that fans who enjoy their services continue to use them while at the same time, the business simultaneously must try to appeal to new prospective customers. All it takes is one bad experience to turn people away because there's no sense of trust, as if they were saying, "You gave me a bad experience once. Why should I have to reason to believe the second time will be better?"
Bottom line is for me, I believe you should be allowed to do as you please in life as long as you're not breaking any laws or moral, civic conduct, hurting yourself at your own expense or hurting other people at their own expense either physically or emotionally. Having said that, if people enjoy WDW or Uni or whatever Florida attraction may be, that's fine. I only ask is that you're not rude and inconsiderate towards others who think differently than you do. It's their vacation and planning, not yours. Live and let live....without being a prick or a criminal!

..Now I've checked the search on here in case this question has been asked before.( there have been quite a few references about the magic bubble by a King Fergus ) But what I'd like you to do is give me your most important reason,just one, for not stepping outside the bubble.?..This is what my friend asked me, Why travel 3000 miles to Florida and stay in the same place..However, like magic, my answer appeared on the TV behind him in the pub..The news was on and it was all this bloodshed in Gazza..Hundreds of innocent people getting killed..."That's why " I replied to him...Pointing to the TV..."Once I enter thro those gates, I leave the real world behind, and for two weeks I get to live in a world of peace and harmony..( Do I sound like a preacher ) So over to you...What's your one most important reason.?...
..We left the bubble in a taxi at 8.00am...We arrived back inside the bubble at 1.00pm...5 hours of my life I'll never get back..I kinda consider Disney like an island..Once I'am on it, I don't want to get off it, till it's time to go home..
