You know, compared with other places/products.
Like, I don't know where is it, I know there's one somewhere in Florida and other near Paris, but there's almost no references about it in movies and any media.
And I have no idea what's inside except for people who went and told me.

The performers are treated like absolute garbage though unfortunately. Their humanity is sacrificed in favor of maintaining the grand illusion.

Yeah, I had this realization the other day when my parents were talking about our trip to Disney when I was a kid. It really kills me that Disney really is out there exploiting the shit out of the character actors who just want to make kids happy. Bittersweet is a very nice way to put it.
I was fortunate enough to go to Eurodisney as a kid. And the most vivid part of the memories for me are actually the before and after part of the rides. The build up to the ride, and the feeling of conquering it afterwards.
I in particular remember the Star Wars flight simulator ride in which the build up to riding was basically a space port, then the ride itself was supposed to be a pleasure flight by a droid but it goes horribly wrong and the shuttle has to take evasive maneouvres through a warzone diving in and out of wrecks and so on. The after part felt like surviving.
This is all supported by absolutely brilliant music placed in the build up and after part of the experience to really boost the emotions involved.
Of course all parks attempt to do something like this but I am quite sure that the overall experience is much much more tailored and carefully constructed at Disney compared to the average theme park. It's about the emotional experience at all times, not just the rides.
Imagine how great the Disney employees would be if the employees owned the park...
