    What's your favorite ride at SeaWorld?

    I would say Mako narrowly beats out Manta which are both excellent rides and probably in my top five coasters. Kraken used to be up there as well but sadly it's gotten too rough over the years.

    Arctic Themed Coaster Announced for 2020

    I thought this was fun, could have been a little longer though which is what keeps it out of my top ten coasters or whatever. But it's still good for them to have a more medium thrill rollercoaster as opposed to the other three big ones. Liked the launch sequence and going up an down on the...

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    A lot of people dread the idea of all major rides being "scheduled" in a virtual queue. While I can see some benefits from that I do agree it would take some of the fun and spontaneity away and would be a hassle for large families. But it's still clearly preferable to this.

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    Another thought, don't know if it's been discussed before, but how do we think this will impact rope drop? With FP+ you could only get 3 a day so there was incentive to get them at higher traffic times like the afternoon. But with this if you payed for Genie+ there's no reason not to start using...

    Poll: Is Genie+ a financially sound business move for Disney?

    Well you'd think charging money for something they once did not charge money for would have to make them more money. This isn't going keep tourists and "one day a year" locals from coming, the losses in people could come from AP's. Although one thing to think about is that a lot of past Disney...

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    Capacity for new Disney rides has been pathetic for some time and that's part of the problem. Disney has no interest in reducing standby lines because ultimately they don't have the capacity to deal with number of people who come to the parks so they have to keep people in 2 hour lines all day.

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    This just feels like a racket, like they're trying to deliberately jack the wait times up and then charge you money to skip them. It's 100% about money, not improving the experience. The parks have just been so much smoother with FP gone, most rides top out at just 45 minutes aside from some...

    Winnie the Pooh land

    I have always thought a bouncing Tigger ride would be very fun.

    Best ride in Animal Kingdom?

    Best Florida theme park entrance?

    Hollywood Studios narrowly beats out MK for me. Always liked the old Hollywood themed opening area.

    2006 Barbossa? or 1967 Captain?

    I miss the old captain. I don't mind them adding the Jack Sparrow subplot but I wish they had just added that in and not altered the already existing parts of the ride. Just having Jack pop up hiding in various spots within the ride would have been unobtrusive.

    FastPass+ Most Certainly Not Coming Back As It Was

    When I went back recently it was just so much more manageable without FP+. I'd much rather have to deal with 45 minute waits in big rides instead of getting a couple short waits with FP and then crazy 2 hour + waits for big attractions the rest of the time. Limited capacity/reservations and no...

    I love the ride experience as a pilot, nearly as good as FOP. The other positions are just okay.

    Favorite Movie Based on a Video Game

    The Alicia Vikander Tomb Raider was less bad than other video game movies I've seen. She put a lot of work in and got very jacked although the movie around her should have been better.

    News Disney mask policy at Walt Disney World theme parks

    Very relieved when I heard about the changes.

    What should HS's icon be?

    I will say Tower of Terror. I might have said the Chinese Theater when GMR was still there but it is not quite the same. GMR kind of summed up the whole park whereas Mickey doesn't.
