They would've called ahead of time and found out park is closed!


One of the unrealistic things about movies. If you are driving a 1000 miles cross country you would call the park ahead of time to make sure they are open! But that would've ruined the plot of the movie.

Today it would be easy to write that in:

"Sorry folks! We're closed for two weeks to remove all traces of one of our legacy cartoon characters because someone was offended by it. We're also reviewing all of our other characters! Sorry! Hyut! hyut! hyut!" ~ Marty Moose

Not only that, but if a big park like that was closed, you wouldn't be able to enter thru the gate. This is a very big plot hole
