Toy Story Land: 5 Ups And 4 Downs

Downs...

4. Where's Pizza Planet?

As much as I enjoyed the new land there was certainly a few things missing that would have really up'd its game.

Although Woody's Lunch Box is good, there is only a limited amount of seating. In the hot summer months it's great to have an indoor dining area to get out of the blistering sun. A lack of an indoor dining area is something that would certainly make the whole area more enjoyable.

The big question many people are asking is why no Pizza Planet? When the original Pizza Planet was re-themed to Pizza Rizzo, many speculated that there would be one opening in the new land.

Of course it isn't really part of the "theming" to have a whole Pizza Planet in Andy's back yard, but I honestly think that the land is worse for the lack of it.

If Disney really wanted a Pizza Planet they could have incorporated it. Perhaps it could have been designed to look like Andy had built one out of Lego? Or even similar to those McDonalds restaurant sets that were popular when I was a kid?

I know traditionally pizza at Disney isn't the best, but the everyday park goer probably expects a Pizza Planet, and will likely be disappointed that they can't try to win an alien from an arcade machine in the restaurant.
