It's not about what guests want, it's about marketing.

I don't have to make an excuse for Disney to do anything they want to do with their parks!!
But what I said was that people want TWO THINGS!!!! NOT JUST CHARACTERS!! They want
CHARACTERS AND ATTRACTIONS!!! So for the last time, if you're going to quote me... PLEASE get it right!!
And if you want to talk about facts...
People are not going to DCA for much beyond Soarin', Screamin', GRR, and TOT! Otherwise, the park would be shoulder to shoulder like DL is! (FACT)
People LIKE Disney and Disney/Pixar Movies! (FACT)
An old
ride that you used to be able to get on in a matter of minutes, now can take up to TWO HOURS to ride because they added a clownfish named Nemo! (FACT)
DCA is expanding and needed a new area for guests to visit! Radiator Springs is born! (FACT)
...so what's wrong with Disney promoting their characters and movies?? Some people don't have any sort of attachment to Mickey, Donald, and Goofy....no problem. but many DO!! It's not just about going on the rides for them. It's about visiting a part of their childhood and sharing it with others! To them, (Me Included), Mickey and the others are like old friends! ...and THAT'S A FACT!!!
You bet its about marketing!! That's where the money is made! But tell me...
Who is Disneyland marketing to?? Isn't it their GUESTS??? If you don't cater to your base customer, you lose business! The Base Customer is...KIDS and FAMILIES!!!
