    Disneyland suspends FastPasses and Extra Magic Hours when theme parks reopen - OCR/SCNG

    Highly unlikely with the capacity limits. Park hopping is a poor utilization of the limited capacity.

    Splash Mountain vs Expedition Everest

    Expedition Everest is a very overrated attraction. The theme and story is great, but it's the ride experience that is lousy. If you break down the roller coaster experience you suddenly realize that it's a terrible roller coaster layout. It has far too many helices and in the same direction of...

    Will jilted Disneyland annual passholders flock to rival theme parks? - OCR/SCNG

    Are you sure you were in Universal Studios? The park has plenty of shade and days over 100-degrees are not as common as you imply. Knott's has been increasing attendance in recent years and in part from former Disneyland Annual Passholders who are leaving because of the increasing cost of a...

    Disneyland considers new annual passes and tickets for afternoon and evenings - OCR/SCNG

    It backs up when things outside of their control happen, like the attraction downtime. This happens with Magic Bands too. Part of the idea behind these changes is to reduce the number of people physically present in the parks. Many of the problems happen because of the sheer number of guests in...

    Disneyland considers new annual passes and tickets for afternoon and evenings - OCR/SCNG

    How is that any different than how it is today? They already have staffing in place at the entry of nearly every attraction.

    Have you noticed the lack on maintenance ?

    This has absolutely nothing to do with being a company whose stock is publicly traded. Just because your shares trade on Wall Street does not equate to having to cut maintenance!

    California Adventure or Hollywood Studios?

    I'm not so sure that many of the critics of DCA would've thought the initial offering at Disneyland was that great. Parks take time to grow up.

    California Adventure or Hollywood Studios?

    If Star Tours is an "E-Ticket" then so is Slinky Dog Coaster and Toy Story Midway Mania. Disney California Adventure is the most underrated theme park in the world. It's been that way since it opened in 2001. In the first 20 years, that park has seen more capital expenditures in terms of...

    Parks are Taking a Back Seat?

    You're completely delusional. There is an obvious reason why there is less talk about the theme parks during investor calls. It has nothing to do with streaming.

    Backtracking from BTMRR

    Do you realize the walk you're complaining about is only 2/10ths of a mile? That's the distance between the entrance to Haunted Mansion and Big Thunder Mountain. That's less than a lap around a track. Maybe you should consider making Disneyland your place to visit, instead of Magic Kingdom...

    Theme park group says state guidelines ‘sentence’ laid off and furloughed workers to ‘poverty’ - OCR/SCNG

    Who cares! So many of you have forgotten that the goal was never to stop the spread, but to slow it so as to not overwhelm the hospitals. The narrative was misunderstood and now we've got a segment of the population who is trying to do the impossible "stop the spread". Shutting down the economy...

    Theme park group says state guidelines ‘sentence’ laid off and furloughed workers to ‘poverty’ - OCR/SCNG

    How can you say that people aren't abiding by them? Why do I suspect that you're one of the armchair quarterbacks that hasn't left their home and remain super vocal on the Internet about how people aren't following the rules. Most of the measures don't give you a choice. Again as I stated the...

    Theme park group says state guidelines ‘sentence’ laid off and furloughed workers to ‘poverty’ - OCR/SCNG

    The fact that cases are spiking across the country proves that California's ultra restrictive measures don't work. If cases weren't increasing in California then you could argue that the extra restrictions in California are effective. However, that's not the case, so all they're doing is...

    Politics Theme Park Reopening Guidelines to be released 10/20/20

    Let me correct you. He cannot give himself a promotion. Disney's Board of Directors who are elected by the shareholders make those decisions. Disney is not a privately held company, so Iger is not a dictator as you rudely portray him to be.

    Disneyland and Disney World lay off 28,000 employees amid pandemic struggles - OCR/SCNG

    I feel awful for the folks in California who are suffering under Newsom, especially the service industry and attractions workers. However, I hope voters are aware that one of the candidates in the current election is also openly talking about shutting down the entire country. If this Disneyland...

    Disneyland and Disney World lay off 28,000 employees amid pandemic struggles - OCR/SCNG

    Maybe the Cast Members should reconsider whether having a union represent them is truly in their best interest. This is a great example of how unions screw over their members and really don't protect their interests.

    Politics OC Register - Disneyland and Universal Studios ask Newsom not to finalize theme park reopening plans just yet

    Months? It likely will be longer than year. The fact that Dictator Newsom decided that the state must review any vaccines before any of the residents of the state will be permitted to obtain it basically means that COVID-19 will continue to be an issue in California for a lot longer than other...

    I apologize for having to correct you, but it "used to be" a great state. Let me repeat that with the emphasis it used to be.

    Disneyland Opening Day Bingo

    The guidelines are brutal. If I were a business owner in the surrounding area I would be very concerned with my future. I think you're being overly optimistic that by mid-March COVID will be under control. The problem with California's guidelines is what happens if you open and the county...

    Politics Anaheim Businesses Worry About Going Under if Governor Keeps Disneyland Closed - Spectrum News

    I'm really surprised to learn that the McDonald's on Harbor remains closed now and even more shocked that it closed at all. There still has to be plenty of traffic on Harbor to support this business. Many fast-food restaurants have done surprisingly well with drive-thru sales throughout the...
