    Does anyone remember the Shark all-terrain vehicle!?

    You tube vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQCwBkDczL8 Also a few items here on a Jaws collector page: http://www.jawscollector.com/universalstudiorideitems2.html Most of the stuff I found makes it sound like it was created for the premier of the Orlando Jaws attraction in 1993 but many...

    Does anyone remember the Shark all-terrain vehicle!?

    More pictures and a very brief description here: http://whizzermotors.com/ That may answer some questions though I still never really understood the point. And where is it now?

    I definitely remember it but also have no idea why it was there.

    Magic Mountain and Knott's Berry farms compared to Disney?

    Agreed. We spent alot of time just driving up and down the coast, checking out different beaches and local restaurants. I bash Knott's but it is, like Kennywood, one of those places every theme park lover should go. It was unseasonably hot at MM and downtown when we were there but the everything...

    Prince of Persia versus Narnia: Disney's Stupid Mistake

    Well, Persia is already halfway to Caspian's box office take worldwide but I don't think box office is the whole story. Disney found out pretty quickly that there wasn't much as of a merchandising market for the Narnia books as they had hoped and Persia films could be made cheaper and quicker...

We were blown away by the number and quality of some of the rides. Tatsu by itself is nearly worth the price of admission...

    Pirates of the Caribbean

    It's not too bad, until you get to the loop. Ok, no water loop. Here's the restrictions (or lack of) from Disney's site: Height Requirement: Any Height

    Give a day, Get a Disney Day?

    Ride the bus, take a lunch. It's threads like this that convince me that nobody from Disney would ever really take these boards seriously. No good deed goes unpunished.

    LittleMissMatched coming to DTD November 7th

    I hope this isn't a sign of a trend there. I'm sure it's a cool store for the age group (I poked my head in at DTD @ Disneyland) but the California DTD is filled with non-Disney stores like this that you could find at any upscale mall. Sephora? great, never seen one of those. Vault 28 was...

    Epcot drinking tour

    All good tips. Just be wise. Epcot is aware of this game and will remove you if your party gets too rowdy. We started at Mexico at about 3pm and only made it to UK (skipping the domestic beer at the American pavillion) by the time Illuminations started. Had a great time but I too will keep the...

    Stitch's SuperSonic Celebratin opening day

    What an eyesore. TL has long been my favorite area of the park even though it's never been given much respect. This is just another in a long series of kicks to the groin there. Considering what attractions are open there right now, if SM and the TTA are still closed when we go next I could...

    best mall? And looking for OG and Sonic

    Orlando Premium Outlets is pretty decent, lot's of good deals and a Disney outlet with discounted park and resort merch. The parking can be a nightmare, go for the garage if you can. We spent 30 minutes finding a space in the rain last January...

    Just one more reason why I rent a car.

    Disney may not own copyrights to Steamboat Willie.

    Never had a problem with them protecting their trademarks, daycare or not. (not saying this just to argue with you either) :) Daycare centers are often given a pass by most since they make their business taking care of our children. We show them pity about things most businesses would be...

    Disney buses, good or bad?

    We can't do without a car. Maybe it's growing up without decent public transportation but we have to have our rental (don't have enough vacation to drive from home anymore). We usually eat dinner at different resorts 3-4 times a trip and spend a couple of days at Universal and both are a waste...

    Disney may not own copyrights to Steamboat Willie.

    Not the characters, just the film. But by association anyone could use that film, and thereby WDC's iconic character, however they wanted. I don't think it would apply to anything but the film itself. For example: if a band wanted to play clips from the movie during their video they could, or a...
