Maybe it's just me (and it very well COULD be) but I think i remember Walt mentioning on a television broadcast at the park that "From now on, Mary Poppins will be a part of every celebration here at Disneyland" and down came Mary from the sky, yet...
She doesn't have an attraction...
She doesn't have a show (and Steps in Time doesn't count)...
and she doesn't have a lick of merchandise (save the porceline figurine)...
Not to mention her absence from the Parade of the Stars (oh, just another reason to hate that parade) and she happens to be, by any account, one of Disney's BIGGEST stars!
Heck she doesn't even have a restaurant (she RENTS a room at PP Hotel!) It's shameful!
The music is cool enough, the characters could all get into it, plenty of chance for great dance sequences, the floats could look outstanding (a merry go round and race track, the rooftops of London, a "feed the birds" float with the cathedral, etc.), and it's long overdo... I say give Mary Poppins her own parade! (And bring Bert to the park while you're at it!)
What do you think?
