The Spirit Takes the Fifth ...

And the presentation evidently went into great detail on Cars Land, although not building attractions like that would appear to be the strategy that has kept WDW on the "Leading Edge of the Attractions Business."

It seems like Cars Land will be the thing Disney milks for the next decade or so to prove they can still do something amazing while they let Walt Disney World rot and rip the place making out of the Disneyland Resort.

That is very interesting. The show floor also does not open until tomorrow and Monday is a day where not a whole lot happens.

Like other shows.. they seem to run a lot of seminars/etc on the days prior to opening the show floor.

You know if they really wanted to cut expenses they could not renew Iger's contract and promote a VP with a 10% raise. When the income and margins don't change fire VP and replace with the next in line. In about 5 years Disney will have someone in touch with reality and they will be a lot cheaper than their current CEO.

Kalogridis is quoted as saying, "Already, we know that MM+ has the ability to increase guest satisfaction more than just about any single thing we have ever done."

Good lord.....what a mouthful of fertilizer.

Someone clearly has a nice retirement deal.

See, aren't you happy to be back on the boards after a few weeks away.

*sigh* I need a cruise. And a trip to Disneyland.

That sounds like a good plan! Cruising seems to even mellow the Spirit, so it must be quite wonderful!

You have Edna from the Incredibles saying about FP+, "The important thing is this will allow you even more time to be spontaneous."

You can even schedule these spontaneous activities 60 days in advance from your smartphone!

Garcia nails a good line every once in a while....

@Jason_Garcia: Kalogridis just said the mission w/Dumbo was to cut wait time in half. So they doubled the capacity....There might be a lesson in there...

Really said isn't it? Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse....

Oh, I always expect things to get worse.
I just hope to be pleasantly surprised.

That's unfortunately the sad part....

How else do you think they grow bigger and better lies.

Was at a Frozen screening at DTD on Saturday, great film btw. The "Get a Horse" short is fantastic and deserves to be seen in 3D. Anyways, had some "lifestylers" behind us complaining how it was a "media/blog event" but they couldn't post about it because they took our phones away so people couldn't record the film. Thought that was funny.

Zero phone tolerance is actually pretty standard in ALL types of sneak previews, media or not...they are just apparently used to being spoiled. (and being caught recording at ANY time regardless of the "status" of the show is also illegal).

Yeah, I know, just thought the complaining was funny.

He's usually pretty good when he covers events like this. He has a pretty good sense of humor
