I find the first article amusing only because the typical person that likes a sports package very often is the type of person that doesn’t take surveys (always exceptions to rules) so it is easy to guess who is really pushing a survey like this…

Losing the boneyard imo is a huge loss. It is a great place to take younger kids when they can't do a ride that others want to ride (or when a couple adults from a group want to ride a ride with out kid(s), they can take the kids to the boneyard). My kids absolutely love the boneyard. We...

These kind of statements really confuse me sometimes. Over the last 10 years, it would be easy to argue that disney has invested more in their parks than Universal has. Disney is now promising another great stint and many have all these doubts. It also makes a lot of sense to many that...

this logic may seem to flow right to some, but it is not actually true. The repetitive getting in lines over and over is what can't be done by many. So spacing out the time an individual is in line will help them handle whatever that individual may be dealing with. Now I agree that there is...

I can only speak from personal experience, but my wife just texted me saying "i think we need to plan a trip in 2025 now because of this". Our plan was to skip this year and next to do Aulani in 2025. And just for reference, my wife doesn't bite on every thing that comes up... My point of...

Fairly certain that when DVC rooms are available and are sold for cash, disney isn't really making money off of them. If a room is available that means a dvc member used their points outside of the dvc rooms (like a disney cruise or through the timeshare system), so the money for that room is...

These were in every science lab in our county's high schools AND freshman year each student had to use it as practice, almost like a fire drill. I figured every student in the country knew what these were, but maybe it was just something common in certain areas.

I see this trend might be seeing a slight change with next generation but too early to tell. More and more school systems are giving kids iPods and similar items. The kids and schools are relying on these to do their work and I see a definite shift happening there that could see a difference as...

ONe of the videos in this thread explains it, but basically it comes down to area available. They have more in florida available to create the waterfall

To piggyback on his, I completely agree (I also know quite a few paid and volunteer fire fighters/paramedics). I lived in an area that utilized volunteer services, and when a truck ran a red light and hit me as I crossed the road as a pedestrian at 50 mph (the truck, not me), it took the...

Not to argue the point, but I do know that rotten tomatoes always pointed out that Hollywood was known for taking most of December off. Here is an exert from one of their december articles talking about it briefly: "Few industries enjoy taking really, really long extended holiday vacations...

I think it's worth noting, since you are using this article to compare, that boxofficepro even says just 4-5 days ago Five nights at Freddy's was looking at a 40-50 million dollar opening, which is below where The Marvels stands now (so comparing apples to apples, you would need to compare them...

Certainly right to have your opinion, but I certainly would disagree. I very much enjoyed WDSP when we were there as much as California Adventure, and they have only improved WDSP since we were there.

I would venture to guess most parents with young kids will not hesitate to still buy even after the increase. Plus with the ability to share/split the cost with others in your group (we always have 2 to 3 groups with us splitting the cost) it is still worth it for many. Disappointed the price...

I wife has never watched any of the animated series (she hates animated) but has really enjoyed this so far. Sure, I think she would enjoy it more had she watched the animated series, and I keep trying to get her to watch one, but she says she just doesn't like animated (let me also point out...
