    Anaheim GardenWalk Development Status report - 10/17/2017

    Lord, not me. I keep my fingers crossed that there won't be a third gate. Have you been to WDW in the last decade?

    8 things from Disneyland’s past that need to come back - OC Register

    COP, lord no. Please never, ever, ever come back in any iteration. Put back the Peoplemover and call it a day. Though bonus points if they returned the previously mentioned SM speedramp. Return of the fort would be my trifecta.

    If you hate all that is Disney?

    The hyperbole aside ("entire life revolves around making negative posts" yada, yada), I think you're confusing the nature of the general complaints. People love (LOVE, LOVE) the Disney product. How that product is served though has become the problem. The "hate" is not about being unable to...

    What pets outside of dogs should WDW allow in Hotel rooms?

    Who's really the one worked up here? Simply having an opinion is not being intolerant and taking a single word out of context does not make it so.

    Disneylands Frontierland vs WDW Frontierland

    C'mon. I love DL as much as the next guy. Love, love, love it, best theme park on the planet, second to none and impossible (clearly) to recreate. But....our Splash is not the best. Yes, all the individual components exist...it straight up should be the best. And it's miserable that it's not...

    Ride Showdown: Indiana Jones or Dinosaur?

    This cannot possibly be a real question.

    Which STAR WARS Land will be more crowded at opening, DISNEYLAND or Disneyworld? VIP Ticketing???

    DL. It's in the castle park. Visitors to WDW will pack SWL but will still need to allocate days to MK, Epcot and many (most probably) will still be going to AK to see Avatar for the first time. DL AP's can keep coming back to SWL again and again until they've had their fill.

    Disneylands Frontierland vs WDW Frontierland

    And here's the reason WDW gets the win for the ride. Yes, DL's drop is better. Its pacing is better. Its location is better. It does indeed have more animatronics...and more broken, missing, unlit animatronics - which is a huge storytelling buster. I still love the ride but until DL can properly...

    Parking for free

    Oh I remember my college budget days well. We'd go camping down in Mexico to get away, not spend 4 or 5 days at the Hilton. Geez, I feel ripped off. No one told me I was entitled to take stuff for free.

    Parking for free

    Holy moly your excuses are ludicrous. And now that you aren't getting the help you want to scam the system, you resort to insults and want the thread closed. FYI, your emotional state has nothing to do with implementing a parking scam nor failure to properly research your trip. As for playing...

    Best way to get to DL/DCA from Anaheim Convention Center

    Yes you can. That's the Toy Story lot and the shuttles to DL run constantly. Do note though that due to how far into the lot you must walk in order to reach the shuttle area, you're only saving about half the walk to DL and not much, probably not any, time. If we're staying in one of the...

    Negativity

    Personally I don't really see personal attacks as a big problem on this forum - actually I find this the most well-balanced of the major Disney forums. Micechat is the clear winner for arrogant, aggressive posters (granted, some of them do make appearances here, albeit toned down.) The Dis on...

    Crying on Soarin - Felt Bad for the Child

    Yeah I'm always amazed when parents force their kids to ride. Years ago our son had just hit the TOT height requirement and really wanted to ride. In the line we go, making it up to the grouping waiting for the elevator doors to open. At this point a girl a couple years older than our son goes...

    Do you still feel a loyalty to Disney?

    While Disneyland still captures my heart and soul, no matter how many times I pass through the tunnels, it's never had an exclusive loyalty from me. We enjoy and even have annual passes at other theme parks. As for other travel, if the choice was between giving up DL to travel elsewhere or...

    Why do you think Disneyland preserves their classic attractions better than WDW?

    What are you talking about? Nothing was rebuilt from scratch. Toad would come closest as a new, longer track was laid and scenes added. Otherwise, existing rides were moved (dumbo, carousel, tea cups) or improved (most notably Snow added to Snow White, many animatronics added to PP) but nothing...

    Why do you think Disneyland preserves their classic attractions better than WDW?

    I agree DL's Tomorrowland is a visual disaster. But are you saying you're happy with MK's? Because it's better than DL's? Frankly it's also bad, just not as bad as DL's. It's like comparing the Pooh rides. One is worse than the other (DL's is worse), but come on, they're both bad. MK would...

    Why do you think Disneyland preserves their classic attractions better than WDW?

    The old PM tracks are a huge eyesore, and frankly I'd throw Tomorrowland overall into the eyesore category. Nonetheless, as a park, DL is much better maintained than MK, at least for the last 15 years or so. While there are valid complaints about the local DL AP base and things are not perfect...

    A Worse Dark Ride Than Mermaid

    Haha but I stand by it, quite, quite unemotionally :)

    A Worse Dark Ride Than Mermaid

    Monsters is the most forgettable dark ride in either park. The queue is entertainingish but the only really good part going for the ride is Roz. I preferred Superstar Limo - at least it wasn't forgettable. Pooh still wins my vote for worst dark ride though. The storyline could be good but it's...
