The Miscellaneous Thought Thread

If even one in every thousand people was interested in renting out Mickey’s house, they’d be constantly turning people away and leaving money on the table. The price is on point for the small niche it’s aimed for.

And from a glance on Reddit and Facebook, it's definitely hit the sweet spot in bookings for sure. For the folks that are hosting birthday parties at Disneyland, what's another $350 more for a built-in 90 minute break from the heat with a guaranteed Mickey meet and greet plus snacks and kids activities? Beats leaving the house dormant while meet and greets are outdoors and distanced.

Our male waiter at Carthay on our trip this past weekend had dark purple (?) nails. I believe dark purple is the Go-To starter color/ gateway drug for men who decide to paint their nails. At first it was a little weird but he was also the second most pleasant CM we engaged with over our 2.5 day trip so . By weird I mean weird to see at Disneyland. I live in LA so it’s not the first time I’ve seen a dude with painted nails.

Where is the top picture of the pigs from?

Which one doesn’t belong? This is almost as weird as when they were selling Death Star balloons in Town Square.

A Walter Lantz Knothead and Splinter cartoon called Red Riding Hoodlum. Very obvious the designs were "inspired" by the Disney version, though I thought it was interesting how the proportions are closer to the Disney Parks version of the pigs than Disney's original Silly Symphony version.

Does the other side have different designs? Surprised there's no castle.

The other side is just a huge castle. Haha

The rumor mill has come to a grinding halt hasn't it? Maybe Disney was tired of things getting leaked out?

I remember when this forum was the place where rumors originated. I think Mickey And Minnie's railway was leaked here way before anywhere else.

It feels like most of the Insiders here have gone quiet. We haven't heard a peep out of TP's "neighbor lady" in years!!

These are sweet! Jessica looks weird but I’ll be buying the other 4. Who am I kidding? I’ll have to complete the set. Love the old school packaging too.

I honestly think Super7 is fast becoming my favorite "toy"/collectible company.

This is actually the case. There are plenty of actual films in existence with gay characters who are major parts of the actual plot or are protagonists of films. There have been strong gay films for decades. The 1990s had quite a few of of these.

Disney 30 years later including a man holding a man's hand for half a second in the live action Beauty and the Beast or two girls kissing in Star Wars, doesn't do anything to advance the cause. It's like boasting about doing the bare minimum to pretend you care.

There's nothing ground breaking or even committed about these "moments" that are quickly inserted into a shot for the twitter reaction.

Both these scenes are not in most international releases of these films by the way.

In 1997 Disney had a major star of their sitcom come out as gay on air. That's some actual commitment. What they do now is throwing some scraps to the LGBTQ folks.

They are Passive Progressive.

Where is Jessica's iconic trench coat and hat????

To be fair they did remove the slit in her dress and made her look like a skinny transexual so

I think part of the problem is there’s really very little going on, at least that’s not currently announced and/or under construction.
