“Cars” Coming to Disney’s California Adventure
And you thought the Maliboomer was exciting.
In a move to both fan the flagging attendance at it’s California Adventure Park, and capitalize on the success of Pixar’s runaway hit Cars, Disney is planning on dropping over a billion dollars on a new auto-themed attraction.
Stopping short of creating a whole new facility, Disney has plans to reinvigorate the theme park using Disney animated movies as the creative fuel for new rides and attractions. With hits like Toy Story already on board, Cars figures to be the starting point for automotive themed rides and games, perhaps paving the way for a new generation of motor enthusiasts…or animators.

California Adventure is such a joke. Why would someone pay to visit a state they are already located in AND can go visit for free?

There was economic sense behind it: Disney just built a smaller theme park within the limits of its massive Disneyland parking lot. I went to California Adventure and found it to be pleasant. It wasn't outstanding at all, but I believe Disney is now permitting ticket buyers to travel in between theme parks--which is the way it should be. California Adventure is really more a companion than an alternative to Disneyland. Funny story: as I was in "Hollywood," I ran into a guy dressed in drag, his masculine wife, and their two children. How fitting for Hollywood.

I like it. I have no issues or qualms about the "park" though it should be just a logical extension of Disneyland itself. Besides, I can get beer and wine there and sit by the pier and watch the roller coaster. I wish they would open up their beer sales to more CA brewers and not the god awful stuff that Gordon Biersch sells...
