Null and Void? Are you always an ass or are you just on your monthly cycle... You must be one of those people that has all the good ideas and no one else's would ever work. Remind you that BF is 35 years old... The CONCEPT of BF's moving parts is what puts it above FITH... The fact that the Yetti malfunctions on Expidition Everest at least 50% of the time does not stop Disney from putting animatronics like it in their rides, it just means that they do in better next time.
I'll handle your post in parts.
Regarding the animatronics at Blazing Fury. Let's not romanticize them. They're really basic.
1. Rocking chairs
2. Saloon Doors
3. Chase scene (when it works - been broke for awhile)
4. Teedering fat lady at hotel
5. Collapsing bridge (when it works - been broke most of last season)
6. Railroad crossing sign
For me, FITH is a better ride. It has a definite backstory and theme. Blazing Fury never tells you why the town is on fire.
It's funny that you bring up Disco Yeti at Expedition Everest. It is completely broke. It doesn't move at all. The strobe lights on it give it the appearance of movement, but it hasn't moved since the first month of operation.
...and yes, I am an ass. But most of the time I'm just overly sarcastic.
