Several threads have been started bemoaning the fact that the 7DMT did not meet expectations, and people are quick (and accurate) in pointing out that any expectations of a thrilling coaster were misplaced. Let's address a different question. Why won't Disney add a true, modern, thrilling coaster to any of its parks? Perhaps the "it doesn't fit with the overall theming" works for the MK. But with four parks and expansion going on at a couple of them, isn't there room for one, single, solitary world class coaster? RnR isn't bad. And it draws huge crowds. So it is a tough sell to suggest that Disney's demographic doesn't want or need such rides. As has been pointed out in the "Disney is the attendance king" thread, there is far more attendance crossover with Universal than there is uniqueness in client base. The people who go to IOA on Tuesday don't all of a sudden despise coasters when they enter a Disney park on Wednesday. Imagine what a true kick-butt coaster could do for the image of the future. They aren't that expensive compared to some of Disney's higher cost attractions. Add some external theming and wham! You have a buzz-worthy new attraction. Isn't there room for one honest to goodness thrill coaster that is equal to what its neighbors offer? When Sea World has coasters that put Disney to shame, isn't there room for one new thrill ride? Somewhere?
