** The World Showcase area in ''Epcot'' features the Morocco pavilion, designed to appear like a real-life street, where tourists can catch belly dancing shows either in the courtyard or inside the Restaurant Marrakesh. The Souk-Al-Magreb shop also offers books that can teach its reader how to belly dance.
** The ''Tokyo [=DisneySea=]'' park from Tokyo Disney Resort had a dinner show attraction called ''A Table is Waiting'', which showcased different food dishes from cultures around the world. One of the countries shown was India, where performers dressed as belly dancers would sing about spice and curry with the song "Spice Up Your Life".

From then on all figures were switched to clear fluid.

** The No-Longer-MGM-But-''Hollywood'' Studios park has geared most of its attractions, such as ''Disney Junior Live'', towards ''very'' young visitors. This seems very odd to some, given the movie-making theme of the park at large. Another notable theme violation is ''Rock 'n' Roller Coaster'', as its modern LA theme completely contradicts the '30s/'40s theming of the Sunset Boulevard area. Meanwhile, the rides and shows that actually fit the theme are (while still good, and fan-favorites) getting on in years. Furthermore, remember when it was an actual working studio? This is made even more humiliating when you consider that its main competitor, Universal Studios Florida, continues to focus its rides and shows on movies and television series ''and'' still be a working film studio after all these years, despite not being as active as it was during both parks' '90s heyday! It seems that they're attempting to compete more with Islands of Adventure, Universal's sister park, given the focus they've given to the ''Toy Story'' and ''Star Wars'' lands.
** EPCOT Center-or, *ahem*, "Epcot" has also been suffering this in the eyes of many Disney fans. The Future World area no longer seems to be about the future or really inspiring people. For instance, ''Innoventions'', which replaced the futuristic ''[=CommuniCore=]'', was all about ''modern-day'' technology. The ''Finding Nemo'' overlay of ''The Living Seas'' strips the pavilion of its futurism and leaves behind nothing but references to the movie all over the place. Then there was also the now-gone ''Ride/EllensEnergyAdventure'', and the Wonders of Life pavilion has sat dormant without a replacement for almost a decade. The common consensus is that the removal of ''Horizons'' also damaged the theme of the area, as it was seen as the pavilion that tied everything together and left you intrigued about the future. As of now, fans feel that there's no consistency to the Future World's theme and that it has no idea what it wants to be anymore. World Showcase doesn't have it as bad, but the addition of ''The Three Caballeros'' into the Mexico pavilion was a mixed bag with fans, feeling that it dumbs down the cultural elements a smidge. ''Very'' controversial among theme park fans is the fact that ''Maelstrom'', the ride at the Norway pavilion, was replaced with a ride based on ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'', an American-made movie based on a Danish fairy tale that only has loose Norwegian connections in its art direction and costume design. ''Maelstrom'', on the other hand, was a ride that was firmly rooted in Norwegian culture, touching upon all the different aspects of it. Additionally, as alluded to earlier, even the park's name change comes off as this. "EPCOT Center" described what the park was meant to be - a permanent World's Fair, but many feel that "Epcot" comes off as, to put it bluntly - a gibberish word. The announced plans to retool the park and integrate more [=IP=]s have been... a hot-button issue, to put it lightly.
** Also, both California Adventure and, oddly, Disney World's version of Tomorrowland seem to have a ''lot'' of tenuously linked rides and shows based upon Creator/{{Pixar}} movies. Granted, that's where there's room for them, but it's still odd.
*** California Adventure was actually criticized for "not being Disney enough"...not to mention if you think about it; it might be a nice place to put Pixar-and-recent-acquisition-themed attractions given that space is limited in that specific park. (Disney did not actually have a lot of money and was almost broke when they bought the land. This is why a lot of attractions are sponsored by companies such as Dole, Creator/{{Mattel}}, Brawny, and why the park is practically ''surrounded'' by third-party hotels that have little to no association with Disney; compared to other parks where they were able to build their own resorts.)

* HighlyVisibleLandmark: In designing Ride/{{Disneyland}}, Walt used highly visible landmarks ("weenies", as he called them, after the way his dog would follow him around the house when he was carrying a hot dog) to draw the guests into the park and then into various sections, with Sleeping Beauty Castle at the center of the park drawing people down Main Street USA, then the rocket ship in Tomorrowland and the pirate ship in Fantasyland to guide them out of the hub. The idea expanded to the rest of the Disney Theme Parks, with each park having its own iconic landmark: Magic Kingdom parks have their castles, Epcot has Spaceship Earth, and Animal Kingdom has the Tree of Life, for example. In addition, sections of the park still have smaller "weenies" to draw guests in, such as Space Mountain in Tomorrowland, the Millennium Falcon in Galaxy's Edge, the international pavilions around World Showcase Lagoon in Epcot, the Tower of Terror at Disney Studios.
