    FastPass+ open to all guests including offsite beginning next week at Disney's Animal Kingdom

    Strangely, the only thing that will keep me returning to WDW now is Universal. I'd be heading to Disneyland otherwise. We spend a week a both parks, but now I can see us doing maybe 3 days (max)at WDW.

    Avatar 3D ride news

    It's weird isn't it. The imagined slights that they perceive in these threads. Us v's Them. The defensiveness... All for a massive corporation. It's an absolutely bizarre mentality.

    People are reacting to the information that has been posted. Whether it proves to be an accurate reflection of the ride is yet to be seen. If you're coming on these sites you have to expect reaction to various projects in train whether they be Diagon Alley or Avatar. I don't operation in some...

    I like TSR, but they really need to be aiming a lot higher than that.

    If you could sponsor one ride

    None. Disney has enough money to fund their own rides. I'm not about to enable the penny pinching practises that have contributed to the ruination of Epcot.

    AVATAR Concept Art released

    James "3D is the future of Cinema" Cameron having his Pandora not being displayed in the format he has been championing is unthinkable.

    I was about to respond to devoy1701 when it hit me, the business strategy that could revolutionize park going.... Ladies and Gentlemen I give you Fremium Disney. Just like the old book system but better. Free entry to the park and charge for every little thing that a person could possibly do...

    Nothing, as long as it doesn't negatively impact your core audience.

    My wife is the Universal fan, while I'm still Disney*. We've often discussed which we'd hit if we could get away and cross the Atlantic for three days over Christmas. Both of us are fairly entrenched. I've disliked the idea of MM+ since it was announced, but this thread had me favouring**...

    Wishful $$$ spent: Avatar-land or Monorail Expansion

    Avatarland's budget wouldn't come near what would be needed for the monorail expansion.... MM+ on the other hand! But then again, I'd imagine that would be massively one sided poll.

    Riders on Rip Ride Rockit Stuck on Lift Hill

    Spent seven days at Portofino last year and went into both parks nearly every day. RRR was down for multiple hours each one of those days. It's easy to see why it's so reviled: non-theme, lousy capacity, constant break downs and lack of thrills. This last point surprised me the most. As...

    Is the Grand Floridian the deluxe of the deluxe?

    Not to mention much cheaper. Honestly, for what they charge, the GF should be far, far better. But people do love the bubble.

    Wow...just wow...500 million a year for the foreseeable future...

    I agree to an extent, but the one major thing in Disney's favour are the TV channels. This is only something I've realized lately - as my social group only started having children about three years ago- but those kids are sold on the Disney dream through the Disney channel from minute one...

    Just as well, I was going to say that the Imagineers were making do with a really budget set-up.

    First Trip to UNI with Family

    I find the CS to be awful in Uni, far worse than what's on offer in WDW. That's not to say WDW doesn't have problems, some of their CS is woeful. I guess it's just a numbers game, WDW with far more options are bound to have a few hits. I will say that what's on offer in Springfield looks to...

    Autum In The World

    Would love to go in Autumn. I'd love to be able to go at a time that isn't absolutely hectic. However, I keep reading that there is no quiet periods in WDW anymore, is it a case of autumn being slightly less busy/manageable or are the parks actually quiet? Did the first morning segwey tour of...

    AVATAR progress

    If you've a back catalogue of great IP, a history of innovation when it comes to their creation; then why bother to put money in someone else's pocket for an outside IP? Why not go to the trouble of doing it yourself and having the whole pie? This is the main thing I don't understand with...

    Electric Vehicle charging at Walt Disney World

    More critically, (and this is a fundamental problem) is that the chemical reaction that powers the motor will slow down when you've cold/freezing conditions, leading to a loss of output and range.
