If you're describing my titles as clickbait, then you're really just telling me that you're the kind of person who comments on articles while only reading the title. I suppose that makes more sense as to why you tried arguing my own points back to me.

You did this to be in another thread. You argue for the sake of arguing but ended up reinforcing my points.

I thought the rumor flying around was some sort of expansion on holidays in the park. I'm not sure what that means, but Alicia Stella did allude to something maybe happening. I'm hoping it's something like walk-through HHN houses, but holiday themed and obviously not scary. In 2020 when they...

I don't recall what my exact words were, but I thought it was pretty clear that I was addressing the people who are always parroting that Future World didn't work because technology caught up to the rides, which I've illustrated were mostly focused on history. I agree that the delivery was...

The food was already pretty poor quality in 2017, but I most recently dined there in 2022. I can't say that it was any better than a school cafeteria. Be Our Guest is for the theming, not the food, sadly.

Ah, well I think that does explain it. I can't say that the last two days have felt unbearably crowded, although I do think that DLR is maintaining better attendance than WDW. The WDW crowds essentially disappeared June and July which is quite unusual.

I've been at the parks yesterday and today and they're not unremarkably crowded for October. Haunted Mansion Holiday is the most popular wait in the park but all other waits are greatly overposted. Did you go on the weekend?

You called?

I don't like whatever lists you're basing this on. I don't think that most people agree that It's a Small World is a bad attraction, so much as it's a popular thing for suburbanites to pretend to hate because of the song. I also think that the Barnstormer is actually a fantastic Jr. coaster...

I remember reading that Disney was having a lot of difficulty with corporate sponsors, especially because they didn't really understand what the park intended to be. What I thought I remembered was that ExxonMobil signed on first, opening the flood gates and giving other potential corporations...

The Fantasia Gardens boat ride was an IP attraction though.

Getting back to topic, I realistically don't expect a penny pinching company like Disney to seriously consider retheming DInoland soon. I have to imagine that gutting the Dinosaur building and retheming to Indy, which itself is an expensive attraction and one that is apparently a headache to...

They've been saying that since 2008.

I thought I had heard that there would be no screen carousels in monsters and that it will have a lot more physical elements. As per Alicia Stella, the Potter attraction will use one but with a physical animated figure chasing riders, akin to the Indominus Rex in Beijing's Jurassic World

Ah, then let me explain. While I would prefer that parks go away with skip-the-line systems altogether, if you're going to implement them, pricing them expensively results in the best outcome for everyone. Express is expensive but sold in limited quantities and because it's so expensive, often...

You really legitimately don't see the benefit of their express pricing?

Just to throw it out there, but they've also been heavily using the closing phrase "It's more than magic, it's real". I think it's a funny dig, especially at a time when Disney is getting nothing but complaints about its operations, pricing strategy and lack of meaningful park investment.

Disney markets Epcot as the "magic of possibility", whatever that might mean. The park theme is essentially a corporate buzz phrase.

I think that the issue is the content. It's the difference between Joe Rohde describing why certain painting choices in the Everest queue were chosen to reflect Nepalese culture and beliefs and Zach describing flooring options for a space that is ultimately trying to emulate current design...

I haven't looked into it myself, but I've had people tell me that they've surfed at the park post-COVID. It was also my understanding that they provide the boards?
