The reviews are coming in really bad. I wonder how it will affect box office.
I guess Disney should get a slightly longer grace period -- maybe one more movie -- after the Pixar split, but the reality for the parks and for the whole franchise is that it all starts with the movies. If the movies are bad, everything else remains stale, and the parks need more than nostalgia alone. There's only so much more water Stitch can carry in the parks for another 2 years.
I'll see the movie and make my own decision. I hope it's good, but maybe if it's not, it will in the long term be a good thing for WDW. Maybe the mouse needs to shake things up a little.
