Does Disney need to re-think its ride attractions?

Well, there's a reason I'm not an imagineer. . . I don't know what needs to be done, but I agree with your point. I cringe at the initial suggestion of more digital technology - I have no desire to stand in line and get strapped into a harness to watch a variety of glorified 3D movies. Some people criticize the popularity of Toy Story Midway Mania as just a larger video game and, while I like the ride and queue theming, a proliferation of this type of ride with other theming slapped on would get old fast.

This is exactly why we aren't going to US this trip, while stan alone each ride is great (Transformers, Simpsons, Minions) but that is the only type they are building now. Personally I want a nice mix of "story" rides via boat/ominmover mixed with thrill rides of varying degrees

This is how I feel exactly. I want Disney's rides to be just like they are. I drive past a Six Flags to get to Disney because I want what Disney offers, not what Six Flags offers. So I hope Disney doesn't change.

I get what you are saying but what I want is those rides Disney-fied. Something that will mean my kids won't get to an age where they outgrow Disney and I really think they have the stories for it: Villians.
Should they be a MK no, should they be at WDW, IMO yes

I absolutely can agree with this.

Disney does not need a bunch of crazy thrill rides. But they do need MORE rides. Attendance has grown every year and ride capacity needs to keep up with that.

they need more rides and better maintenance on their current rides!

Not just rides, but dining capacity, and creative foods.

I was excited to see the Frozen summer fun treats last summer until I saw them. A cupcake with a huge glob of food coloring frosting? Yuck.

Once upon a time, regular table service options were fun and creative. Instead of maintaining and brining in more amazing treat, the higher ups at WDW decided to take away the chefs' ability to be creative by mandating they all use the same vendors.

Disney has PLENTY of VERY talented chefs.
