    Monsters inc laugh floor or Alien swirling saucers

    I can appreciate a nice Alien Swirling Saucers when I see a Monster Inc Laugh Floor.

    EPCOT Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind SPOILER Thread

    Once you get on the "escape pods" there is no story that I could tell. It feels like a jumble of random tik tok videos and one liners from the movie characters played over music from the 80s.

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    It would work at any price as long as they limit the supply. Obviously, they want to maximize profits, but just chasing the highest price to compress the organic sales to where they want makes it more obvious they care about money more than customer satisfaction. Bottom line, when I go to...

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    And yet they continued (and continue) to sell as many G+ as people will buy. If they thought G+ was going to work at 20% of the current sales, they should limited it to 20% of current sales. You don't design a service to work for 1000 people, sell it to 20K people, and then throw up your hands...

    Haunted Mansion vs. Churros

    Have to say, I'm somewhat surprised (and a bit delighted) by the results so far.

    News Princess Cruises takes shot at cost of WDW

    I watched it twice. Could you point out the "attack" part? Was it where they showed what to expect on the cruise or the part where they said it was cheaper than other vacations?

    The “wealthy” is not going to work

    I don't know why people keep saying Disney needs high prices to keep the crowds at tolerable levels. Disney doesn't have to sell unlimited tickets. If the parks are comfortable at 30K people per day then only sell 30K tickets per day. The parks are crowded because Disney wants them to be...

    News Disney World Earmarks 80 Acres for Affordable Housing

    What's a "living wage"? $40K/yr, $60k/yr, $200k/yr? If I work 40 hours a week standing on the street corner spinning a sign that says "Fried Chicken This Way ->" do I deserve to be paid $50k / yr? What if I work 40 hours a week writing movie reviews for a website with 100 monthly visitors...

    News Disney World Earmarks 80 Acres for Affordable Housing

    I guess I'm not following exactly what you'd like to see. Could you give an example of what you would classify as "integrated variety"? What would you like to see if you were designing a new area?

    News Disney World Earmarks 80 Acres for Affordable Housing

    Isn't there a ton of mixed housing (apartments, townhomes, 55+, single family) all over Horizon West in close proximity to each other? In fact, Independence has all of those (maybe not 55+) in one neighborhood.

    News Disney World Earmarks 80 Acres for Affordable Housing

    People self segregate where they live based on a lot of different criteria; affluence, age, religion, culture, lifestyles, etc. College kids don't want to live in a neighborhood full of old folks who go to bed at 9pm. People who take meticulous care of their property don't want to live in...

    Some people enjoy the smell of fresh air when they walk out their front door. Some people enjoy the smell of urine when they walk out their front door. Who are we to say which is bad and which is good.
