I didn't even know Disney acquired National Geographic. Outside BBC and PBS they are the only ones on TV that does produce actual historical documentaries.
NatGeo's television presence was co-owned by Fox, which is why the timeline surprised me (another reason for the acquisition besides Marvel assets?). And Disney isn't the WORST home for the Society, Those Disneynature docs have been top-notch.
And, you're sadly right. The BBC, PBS, and NatGeo are about the only large-scale producers of genuine, educational, nonfiction left. A crying shame.
I don't really watch nature documentaries so I didn't know about Disney nature documentaries. I mean I do enjoy a nice animal fight like an elephant beating the crap out of a hippo with a giant log. That was pretty funny.
My elementary school really liked using the cinema as easy field trip fodder. Children's book get an adaptation or a lighthearted nature doc come out? Load up the buses!
I still think the Jim Carrey Christmas Carol wasn't the best choice, though.
I don't know about an entire planet (probably too much work to upkeep). However, perhaps they would make an O'Neal cylinder where they could better control the climate. The park staff would live on station with a full support system in the form of a city. The guests would be restricted to the actual park area.
Along with having a lot space to work with, you could have attractions with varying gravity depending on how close to the axis it is. There would be no hurricane season to worry about and they could create a climate that is pleasant for the park goers year round. And it would deliver just the whimsical feeling of being in an environment completely alien to us. Ever seen the artistic interpretation of what it would be like to be inside an O'Neal cylinder? It almost feels fairytale-like.

That wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility if Earth or whatever has the capability to build something like that on a regular basis and easily too.
For some reason I could imagine such a thing in Gundam.

Wait, how big is the Gundam Fandom?!?!
I'd imagine it's pretty big. It's pretty popular. Especially when Japan has a life size Gundam they are working on.
But that's not what I meant. I meant the huge space structures that exist in the Gundam series.
