Gone Girl showed up on the torrents 2 months before its Blu-Ray release. Boyhood showed up a month beforehand. American Sniper, The Imitation Game, Into the Woods, Birdman are all available for download in DVD quality.
Agreed. The character dynamics between Agent Carter and Jarvis have a lot of potential.
Horrible bosses was apart of the sony leak as was annie. And as I said Screener season is to blame for into the woods, imitation game, big hero 6, and american sniper. For example if the avengers comes out in may it's not going to be found on dvd quality for quite some time maybe well into the summer. Unlike screener season where most of these things leak while the films are still having their run. As a broke college student trust me when I say I watch these sorta things VERY closely to see what is online and what isn't.. And november-december is my favorite month for films for a reason. Guardians came out in august and we didn't get a dvd leak of that till late november early december right around when it was due for a dvd release.
There are multiple bars that must be sought to find like outlook and to a certain extent Meridian which was my favorite bar. Outlook also has the "benefit" of being able to hear everything that goes on in Edge.The 'bar that must be sought to find' is there on the Fantasy even with the kiddie water area... It's just a small one on the port side that basically exists only along the walkway to the sports area.
I'm sure being sent to work that bar must feel like being sent to Siberia
... and being closed more often than not due to it being their main digs they rent out. I've yet to make it to Outlook on any of my cruises because of the limited hours. All the smokers know about Meridian
That's the billion dollar question..
Either you're using some sort of censored Chinese internet, or you've never really looked very hard.
Disneyland.
Mickey's ToonTown Fair is now Storybook Circus. Both Mickey's ToonTowns are still open, but one is slated for closure.
Maybe Disney should have asked for the land SDL resides in, aka the Shanghai International Tourism District, to be held to American/European construction standards by the Central Governent with harsh punishments for contractors.
Those sort of promises are already made. Part of why work from Walt Disney Imagineering costs so much is because their specifications are incredibly specific. There is a good chance the contractors on the job don't have much experience with specifications, much less Disney detailed specifications.
Parks and Resorts has become 100% risk averse because they still view Parks and Resorts as mature. The financials are so delicate that they feel they can't afford the slightest misstep. Despite all that, a $1.6 billion investment in Next Gen has yielded next to nothing. Any one of us on this site could have better spent that money in the parks.

You have executives afraid to take risks, and Imagineers that now live to cater to these executives. This means unimaginative, safe projects. A major Star Wars expansion should have been green lit as soon as the ink was dry on the Lucas contract. Fixing Epcot, Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios should have been green lit as soon as Disney execs saw this pictures:
Instead, you get guys like Bruce Vaughn leading the charge. Making statements at D23 like, "bring it on!" He's just as delusional as the executives living quarter to quarter. I know he's the red headed step child around here, but I need to steal a paragraph from Jim Hill's series of Beastly Kingdom articles that are 14+ years old:
You see, Disney CEO Michael Eisner is a very competitive guy. He hates to lose -- at anything. If attendance at WDW started to noticeably slip due to the Mouse losing customers to Universal's new theme park, Michael would have to do something. Eisner's enormous ego just wouldn't be able to handle the idea of Disney being No. 2 in the Orlando market.
So he'd turn to the Imagineers and say: "Make the best attractions you can."
Not "Make the best attraction you can on a limited budget." (i.e.: WDI's recent controversial rehab of Epcot's "Journey into Imagination" ride. During its three months of operation, the revamped version of that Future World attraction racked up more guest complaints than most shows produce in a year.)
Not "Make the best attraction you can with minimal changes to the pre-existing ride building." (i.e.: The Magic Kingdom's "Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin" actually runs its ride vehicles along the very same track and layout the building's previous tenants -- Delta's "Dreamflight" and the unsponsored "Take Flight" -- used.)
Not "Make the best attraction that reflects the sponsor's agenda" (i.e.: Any exhibit you'll find inside either version of "Innoventions.")
Just "Make the best attractions you can." Period.
Look at Epcot, the two new things going to that park are shoehorning Frozen into an existing facility that doesn't fit it, and Soarin' 2.0. As an Imagineer how, can you possibly get excited about creating some of this stuff? Disney is putting the least amount of effort behind these additions in what is wholly uninspiring. If they can't get behind their own innovation, why should fans?
When was the last time Imagineering was told to "Make the best attractions you can"?
Doh I forgot about all the smoker foot traffic, I must have been drinking or somthing.... and being closed more often than not due to it being their main digs they rent out. I've yet to make it to Outlook on any of my cruises because of the limited hours. All the smokers know about Meridian
I'm still biased to the sports bar.. for the TVs and bar tenders or if I wanted to just be in a bar I'd goto Skyline.
