I hate to park hop the conversation from Epcot to Hollywood Studios, but this goes back to an initial comment/conversation from the start of this thread. It's about escapism and game changers in the industry. With everything Disney has done to expand the Magic Kingdom and make it more...

What also helps with a scenario like this is that resorts like the all-stars have lax security, you can get through the gate without real proof that you are staying there. That helps if you ever need a free shower, since they have showers in the bathrooms by the pools with, I think, at least...

Love the Wizarding World one, really cool use of the map.

The same thing happened at some point between March and May. I had done the show for a week straight and never saw the Swedish Chef effect working :(

Awesome tattoo. Thats the first steamboat willie one I've seen. :)

With the exception of Everest and Kali rapids, I think AK is horrible.

I dont know about the theme parks directly, but I know that disney will hire you for things like DTD positions if they knew you weren't staying too long. LEGO for instance had someone that was hired for I think 4 months, and they had a bunch of temporary college program people there as well. If...

If I'm waiting X hours for Fantasmic, I wont be happy with someone just walking in...

Now I'm super jealous :( Robin Hood was always my favorite movie growing up.

I didn't know anything about this, that's awesome! Thanks for the pic :)

We had to use a wheelchair one time and were forced to use the alternate Test Track line. The CM who sent us there told us to go right away. When we got to the top where they put you on the ride, the attendent screamed (made quite a show) at us (particularly my wife in the wheel chair) that she...

I love how I live in Kissimmee, and yet the minute I step out of the car onto Disney Property, everything feels different. It's like theres magic pumping directly into the air. Other favorites: The attention to detail on even their office buildings, keeping with the magic of the parks. The...
