I just looked through all 10 pages of the "cutbacks" thread (most of which discusses cost increases, not cuts). Here is everything listed that I could find -
- Permanently closing Rafiki's Planet Watch (later found to be incorrect)
- Cutting actors from ROL
- some Citizens of Hollywood being cut
- Jack Sparrow Pirate Tutorial being cut
- Some other character M&Gs (based on other posts in the same thread, these are changed out, not eliminated)
- Mickey's Backyard BBQ is cut (later confirmed to be relocated due to new hotel construction)
- Reduced extra Magic Hours
There may others that weren't listed but is this really what people are upset about? 4 cuts in all the theme parks combined? This is not a cutback issue, it is a cost increase issue. Like many others have said, each person has to decide if a WDW vacation is right for them. Disney has determined that it needs to improve the product and in order to do that, they have raised prices to pay for those improvements.
