LOL. The hair was just a memorable detail (Nothing against hairy guys in public. I'm actually jealous due to my deficiency in that dept.) The impact was the deciding element.

Is Bigfoot 2.0 open? How’s the AA?

Open and looking awesome: I can't wait to try it myself. The Bigfoot AA gets mixed reviews due to its retro-fit staging, but the many other fun sights and sounds along the flume are the real selling point.

It's not a log flume (but it is a flume).
Rapids don't need to be strong for a good adventure. Even Grizzly River only offers brief moments of turbulence. I think the pacing and motion of Grizzly River is fine, though. It's the lack of any of the touches that used to distinguish Disney rides from other parks that's the attraction's problem. Is it really that hard to improve? It is when Disney would rather spend the funds moving an old kiddie ride to Pixar Pier so that they can promote it as a new attraction.

I rarely go on the grizzly ride but I was pleasantly surprised by it. I expected it to be like Kali Ma river run at Animal Kingdom, which is an extremely, extremely lame ride featuring an incredibly elaborately themed line and jungle foliage with a brief awkward enviromental message scene of a logging truck. Grizzly is more of a fun ride though and the drop seemed bigger.
It also doesn't soak you like the Popeye ride, which is why I've avoided that one for a decade.

When did everyone get gang tattoos? I've seen more tattoos today than at a circus sideshow.LOL. The hair was just a memorable detail (Nothing against hairy guys in public. I'm actually jealous due to my deficiency that dept.) The impact was the deciding element.

I liked it. Had some issues but was one of the most entertaining and engaging films I’d seen in a while.

I need to rewatch Hereditary again and compare the two. But overall, first impressions are I liked this one much better.
Speaking of Grizzly Peak the time has come to do something with the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail. It’s no Tom Sawyer Island so it’s expendable and a sizable piece of real estate. Put in a nice little dark ride.
Actually no, wait til Chapek is gone and then put in a nice little dark ride. After seeing SWL I’m officially OK with everything being put on hold at DLR.

Hereditary was disturbing. I’ve always had a thing for horror movies but As I get older I’m starting to realize what my father in law means when he says I don’t like watching movies that “bother my soul.”
Just saw the trailer for Midsommar. Also looks weird and disturbing.

Yep. I'd actually prefer Splash Mountain stays in it's current state for the next few years until Chapek's gone and WDI has enough time to hopefully improve- since I worry about what this modern batch of Imagineers would do to the ride if given a budget and told to 'freshen it up'.
Same with Fantasmic. I want the original back, but I know that the modern group would find some way to kill even that version, either by eliminating segments or actors to save costs.
And, same with Tomorrowland. I want it refreshed (not overhauled)- find a way to utilize the PM track, and find a good dark ride for both the Buzz building and Star Tours building.
They can do whatever they want to Toontown.

In some ways, I'd say its more disturbing than Hereditary... but also, I weirdly enjoyed it more?
I'm a big horror junkie though, so my souls already been pretty bothered.
Agree, Toontown is getting an E ticket added (nothing replaced). Whatever they do to the land to freshen it up can’t be too bad. Right?

I just figure- if they somehow botch the Toontown overhaul, I won't be heartbroken. I hardly ever venture over there, as far as I'm concerned Disneyland ends at small world

Haha I rarely go either and subconsciously I also feel that IASW is the end of Toontown. Just don’t like to see anything downgraded.

People scoff when the harmful effects of horror films, video games, and rock n roll are mentioned but there’s complete truth to such statements.
