- Comment - Horizon could be straightened. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 02:19, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
- Comment - the picture is from one of the side of World Showcase Lagoon, which is basically a giant circle. This may affect your view of the horizon. Personally, the horizon looks pretty straight to me. Elisfkc (talk) 02:34, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
- Comment Even the buildings don't look as if built on even ground what, of course, should be assumed they are. What's wrong with the perspective here? --Tremonist (talk) 14:23, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
- Comment The perspective is partly messed up thanks to the use of forced perspective for the buildings. The American Adventure, the building on the far right that's lit up, is actually five stories tall (not including the top part), but made to look like it's two and a half. Most of the other buildings are made to look larger than they are. I don't remember exact sizes for the rest of them, but if my memory serves me right, most of them are two to three stories.

- Oppose Everything in the background is leaning into the centre, especially at the extremities of the picture... gazhiley 09:12, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
- Comment @Gazhiley: please see the explanation above for the reasons as to why that is. Elisfkc (talk) 19:17, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
- Support – the use of forced perspective is plausible for something in Disney World. Good enough. sst✈(discuss) 15:19, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
