You would think all of those smiling, happy photos would have served as a great advertisement for the DVC, but I guess if you eat there you're probably already part of it.

You're breaking my heart all over again. One of my favorite Dinoland memories was seeing a kid in the middle of Rama, staring up with her mouth open, completely in awe at Cementosaurus. Kids don't need a lot, they don't need animatronics, they don't need accuracy. They just want a dinosaur...

I love the idea that they decided to go ahead with inaccurately portraying every part of the carnotaurous except the head (understandable, most recognizable part) and the arms. You've gotta be accurate with the itty bitty carnotaurous arms.

Imagine if they start trying to cash in on Animal Kingdom nostalgia in a couple decades like they do in Epcot.

Disney has not said it's for kids/teens. Disney labels it all ages. People just assume it's for kids because it sucks.

It didn't even occur to me with all this that Disney World lost the only ice cream place in the parks where there was readily available indoor seating to use after getting your ice cream. For those rare days where it's hot in Florida, ya know.

Because 1. People who like Dinoland continue to argue that throwing up your hands and going "whatever" wasn't the way to go given there was nothing stopping them from making something else dinosaur themed there, 2. that's not what expansion means. Expansion means adding things to the park. It...

Except for the spots.

Continuing to pretend the Aladar statue outside and the two seconds of footage of him in the preshow, which is the sum total of the actual connection to that movie you get when you go on the ride because it was a shoehorned in connection on an original story ride, are in any way relevant...

And it's not like you couldn't tell where the budget went instead of scenery; the thing was filled with giant dinosaur animatronics. Extremely impressive giant dinosaur animatronics. Disney used to brag you could see the carnotaurus breathing. There is a very real chance these things were the...

Thanks; I have been trying alcohol, desserts, general good food, and funny movies.

Even knowing this was put up in September it's still conspicuous timing. You're never going to be my dino, Gertie...

I'm honestly not sure how to answer that; some of the statues around it are fun, it's easily accessible. Nothing super novel. Probably less shade than Riverside's main one.

French Quarter is my favorite moderate specifically because of the size. That said, since French Quarter only has the one pool that means you cannot escape the kiddie games they play at them. It's like an hour or two in the middle of the day of blasting ill fitting music and shouting into...
