I'd be in the camp that the Flordia Star Wars isn't big enough. I understand the land restrictions in California. Nearly being a carbon copy, seems like the easy way out. They have a lot to do in Florida to catch up with the "neglect" of the last decade or so. I do think we see another Star Wars land in Florida at one of the existing parks(not animal kingdom). I suspect you would make it an expansion of DHS. I suspect there are making a realization that they can be hitting their comfortable carrying capacity in the very near future. A 5th gate might not make sense. However, substantial growth of the parks can get them that capacity, with less effort than a 5th gate.
I think DHS has one more "land" in it. Animal Kingdom does as well. Epcot can grow more, and I think could support another "land" as a full addition. Magic kingdom, I think can expand a bit, but I don't think they'll break the formula and add another "land". Maybe add attractions outwards, but not a full land.
For me, I think Epcot needs to be the next spot to concentrate their effort on. They've started a bit. However, I think there is a lot more potential there.
I didn't fully grasp how much this was a driver of the construction until the last time I was in disneyland...
They literally built this shoehorned in between highways.
Fine for Disneyland...not nearly good enough for wdw. We're gonna have a carlsand type nightmare on the east coast.
Bob is "Hollywood"...couldn't have something better in Orlando.
Eisner was "new York"...he loved the east coast and was fine feeding it. And he let Disneyland rot.
They're both from New York...but the philosophy on what they had has been completely different and doesn't make a lot of sense.
