    News 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    So, if this was going in MK I would 100% agree it should be a mystic manor style LPS that explores the casita and re-tells the story. But in this case I really think not book reporting the movie and working to try and tie the IP into the theme of AK is the right call. I’m excited for this and...

    News Victoria & Albert’s awarded MICHELIN Star

    Having eaten at both of those while V&A’s was closed this doesn’t surprise me. I was astounded at the quality of meal we had at Citrico’s a few years back. It completely blew me away.

    “Something major” coming to DHS???

    You clearly meant to say they were putting Disney's America back on the table - don't try to hide it Martin 🤣

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    So the missing ingredient is musical critters for her party? In the bayou, Princess Tiana is getting ready to throw a big party, but there’s been a bit of a mix-up between Prince Naveen and Louis. Uh oh — the princess suddenly finds herself in need of a band. We previously shared that all-new...

    News Hatbox Ghost coming to Walt Disney World's Haunted Mansion

    That is disappointing to hear - based on initial observations I was hopeful that he would be a positive influence at WDW.

    News New Disney World summer 2024 ticket offers include 3-Day, 3-Park for $89 per day

    It's interesting to me you can add the hopper on the Florida ticket but not on this ticket. It would be a much better deal if you could add the hopper, IMO.

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    For some reason (and I'm stretching back into my memory here) on the EPCOT transformation thread it was mentioned (or I think it was mentioned) that one of the negatives to putting BATB into EPCOT was that WDW would have to pay to break the exclusivity license that TDL had for the ride and that...

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    Eh, I'm not sure if I agree with that. The ride itself takes place IN the castle. You're in a teacup from the movie. At some point, you're going to need to go into the castle and that doesn't square with the castle being the entrance to BOG. I know I'm nit-picking but this is the type of...

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    You'd have to somehow tie in the fact that the facade of BOG and the facade of this ride are both the Beast's castle - can't have two of those in MK. I'm sure if they wanted to they could figure that out (or maybe they don't care about show that much anymore).

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    I get from an ops standpoint that the height requirement hasn't changed - I just wonder if kids that meet the height requirement might have been put off by the appearance of the drop on Splash won't feel the same looking at the mountain in its current form. I only say this because as the...

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    Honestly I agree with some of the thoughts on here that making it look shorter may have been on purpose to make it look "less scary" to smaller guests since it's now a princess themed attraction.

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    I'm really stumped by why people think there isn't rampant abuse. Let's look at a list of SOME of the things covered by the ADA: Physical or mental impairments include, but are not limited to: visual, speech, and hearing impairments; mental retardation, emotional illness, and specific learning...

    News Soarin' Over California returning to EPCOT for a limited time

    Well that sucks - I was literally loaded to ride it last December when it broke down while my wife watched the kids who were too little (she rode before me). We didn't make it back to EPCOT that trip so I never got to ride and was hoping it would stay the Cali version until out next trip. Now...

    Want a deal on tickets and are a T-mobile Customer ?

    Honestly the “child pricing” just makes me angry. I’d rather pay the extra money than have the pointless discount. No one is not going on a Disney vacation because they won’t pay the extra $7 for the kids ticket.

    MSEP ending at Disneyland on Sept 1, WDW return in 2023?

    They trialed it and apparently it didn’t work well from previous threads on this forum.

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    I also believe he said that the company believes the abuse of DAS is because people are doing everything they can to avoid paying for G+ - therefore the root problem is still G+.

    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    Chapek is an interesting study considering he grew up going to the parks and before he became profits focused as a visitor was a "parks fan." It's a point that people need to consider when thinking that someone who is a parks fan/was a parks fan will always make positive parks-focused decisions.

    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    I actually agree with this - DIS has gotten too big and it can't function with all of the competing interests. I would love OLC to take an ownership stake in the American parks but that won't ever happen.

    Unsure who to vote for regarding the Walt Disney Co. Board

    Rasulo is 1000% in this just to screw Iger for cutting him out of contention for the CEO position. You will not convince me otherwise and you never want to back a horse that's just playing for spite.
