    DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

    A little premature me thinks. The execution determines whether it captures the playfulness and immersion that Disney used to be famous for.

    Animal Kingdom Lodge Praise

    We just take a Lyft. Costs a little but worth it to us.

    MK New Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin Updates Coming to Walt Disney World

    Agreed - but ‘slowly phasing in’ suggests they had a plan. Feels more random to me.

    Does this company even market to men anymore?

    MK New Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin Updates Coming to Walt Disney World

    Agreed - MILF was a poor choice here. Tron looks interesting but ultimately is a pretty empty ride with lots of blank walls and very little actual storytelling. Speedway is an anachronism - perhaps they will remake it using the Cars technology - but agreed that is unlikely before the 2030’s...

    News Star Wars Day 2026

    No matter what happens next- we can still rejoice this. She must have had incriminating pictures or something to hang around long enough to do as much damage and lose as much money as she did. Nobody should forget that her initial role was Spielberg’s admin, nothing more.

    News Star Wars Day 2026

    Merch is great - though a part of me wishes that the May the 4th thing would have remained where it started - a product of fan imagination. Now it’s just part of the IP.

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass

    Dang some people must have a lot of cash to burn. I can remember 10 years ago when we would go every year that getting 7-day park access with hopper was perhaps $1,800 for the three of us - including picking our 3 fastpasses of course. I thought that was outrageous at the time.

    News Disney's Wilderness Lodge Exterior Refurbishment Brings Construction Impacts Through Late 2026

    Top 3 resort on my list- such amazing sense of place making there. Always good to see it maintained. For what it’s worth - our top 3 are Animal Kingdom, Wilderness, and French Quarter. I am also hopeful that the nearby Lakeside Lodge will be worthy of the location, unlike some of their recent...

    Disney making $1 billion investment in OpenAI, will allow characters on Sora AI video generator

    It feels like thought they had to be doing AI video stuff with no clear vision as to how it would actually help.

    News Francesca's at Disney Springs Expected to Close in Nationwide Shutdown

    Can’t say this bothers me- this is a pretty bog standard store at many malls. The Springs should keep aiming for stores that are not standard mall shops. Look for popular online retailers that have limited physical locations and views those locations as ‘halo’ brand ambassadors.

    MK Big Thunder Mountain to receive full retrack

    This really feels like it’s going to be a well- received refurb with a proper level of care and thought. Hoping for the best…

    News A-Wing Surrounded by Construction Walls in Galaxy's Edge

    I don’t disagree that it’s not the best angle relative to hiding the backside or having views into the park.

    News A-Wing Surrounded by Construction Walls in Galaxy's Edge

    Perhaps - I am not in that business. I am ok with whatever number they need. It would cost more of course - requiring more research to support. I think the DVC idea is interesting though and a really different kind of offering.
