    Disney's Metaverse - The end of vloggers and YT'ers?

    When it comes to VR attractions... That's the neat part, you don't. The models used will be the attractions in their ideal state.

    News Princess Cruises takes shot at cost of WDW

    Except they ended with a note on the pricing compared to theme park vacations, plus they directly mentioned Animal Kingdom and Wilderness Lodge. There's a link right there. Though I do think some posters are reading the tone of the ad overtly harshly. Maybe it's because I'm also familiar with...

    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    No idea. I'd imagine it'd fall with how the debt is structured and Florida state law. Sounds more plausible than my idea of Disney buying a large tract of land in Georgia, then film their latest D+ reality game show, "Moving the Magic," where teams of the world's best industrial movers compete...

    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    Interesting take. RCID dissolves so their bonds default and get passed to FL's taxpayers. Disney fights the action in court and wins due to comments made about the dissolution being retaliatory in nature. RCID reforms without the debt as it's been transferred due to the previous default.

    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    From what I recall earlier in the discussion, it's a 10% cap by FL state constitution. I'm wondering what discussions Disney is currently having around that. If RCID can be dissolved under the new law, maybe drastic improvements across the board, financed through bonds, is in order. Then...

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    Then there'll be another after breakfast. It's Disney's Buffet Pricing+ where you only pay $29/pound of weight gained between entering the buffet and leaving. Please note a credit card or Magic Band with charging privileges is required to access the restroom as you'll be charged for the gained...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    When a 🚨DRAMATIC STORY EVENT🚨 happens before you've had a chance to shower. A wookie is just a wookie. But Chewbacca is nostalgia and good conditioner.

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    What kills me with the lightsaber training aboard the Starcruiser is "Vader Immortal VR" did it better, and at a fraction of the cost, even if you're needing to buy a headset. Now I'm aware you can't directly compare a video game to real-life entertainment, but Disney should've figured out a way...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    After seeing several of the videos and articles the Starcruiser looks fun, but not $6,000 (or even $4,809) worth of fun. I'd probably bite around $1,000, and start to give consideration around $1,500, for the voyage. Random thoughts: Smart use of windows from the atrium into the bridge to see...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    An easy way of handling that is capping the number of drinks per person. Scan the databand with each drink. Easy to integrate into the story too. "Sorry, there's a five drink maximum under the First Order. No. That doesn't mean you can order another five with your second, sir."

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    Wonder how they'd handle a group of casual MST3K cosplayers yelling, "We've got movie sign!!!!" and slightly panicking every time the story alarm goes off? Knowing Disney's track record, I'm not holding my breath.

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    Actual cruise ships have every passenger participate in a muster drill to know how to react in case of an emergency before sailing. My only complaint is this video would be fine before arrival, but once at the Starcruiser, Disney should be keeping things 100% in-story. Though they probably would...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    Since you mentioned Royal Caribbean, I'm cruising with them this year. What I'm currently estimating for my final, total spend on the cruises is equal to my estimate for doing the Starcruiser (would be going solo either way). Except I'm voyaging with RC for 20 nights, not 2, and have a range of...

    That was what I was anticipating too. Needing to wait for reviews, but this is starting to look awkward.
