I think it isn't too flashy...and should stay (but I want the name back!)

Nice posts. I think you both have very good points.
Although I doubt Disney would bring back the original Living Seas. I used to looove the original Living Seas as a kid, but they started taking out so much stuff from the attraction, and Nemo does brighten it up a little. I've only seen videos and pictures of it, but the clammoblie ride isn't great, but it serves, I guess, as an intro to the pavillion.

Both of you ARE right about how Nemo doesn't appeal to everyone, like most teenagers who go to the parks (I am a teenager myself, but I am a Disney fan )
Obviously, Most teenagers don't like movies like Nemo because it's a family film. This is from my thread for rude guests at Disneyland, a VERY good example on Nemo's appeal:

"oh. my. gosh. This has got to be the worst thing. disneyland is so stupid. it's for like 3 year olds. i hate my parents"
yadda yadda yadda. i don't care who you are, everyone likes disney.
