Maybe six months ago a couple posters floated the idea. I'll have to see if I can find them. I even responded and asked if they were serious. They were and laid out that moving the rides to Texas was not as expensive as people though and Disney would make more money long term because of Texas...

This can't be right. According to some illustrious posters on here, Disney hates California. They were shutting down Disneyland and moving to Texas.

A lot of people on here have first hand experience otherwise. I'm not positive it means what you think it means based on that comment. It's not about your point of view. I'm glad you often have a unique opinion. I enjoyed reading your comments when I first joined, especially when I didn't...

It had both sides of the argument represented. Which is what journalism does. That wasn't the only one either. The CDC that you often did a quote also had a study that you dismissed. Funny how it is always a slanted piece if you don't agree with it, but above reproach when you do. Again...

Interesting since the last time I brought up something that was contrary to your opinion you discounted the source. Instead you doubted that individuals that study infectious diseases their entire life didn't know what they were talking about. All that anyone is asking is that if you are...

I and others have posted articles that do include studies and interviews with experts that point to outdoor dining causing spread. Obviously you ignored all of those which was exactly my point. You make a blanket statement like the above, multiple people respond with evidence contrary to your...

You ignore anything that doesn't fit with your pre conceived ideas. Just the other day I replied to one of your posts spouting the usual science and data nonsense with an LA Times article that clearly concluded that the stay at home order led to a large drop in cases and saving as many as...

I received my refund today. I had paid in full for a Signature with Max Pass. I was going to probably call them next week if I hadn't received anything by then. I hadn't received any of the email announcements or surveys so I was worried that my pass had gotten lost in the system somehow.

It did a lot of good actually. "California officials estimated that the state’s order — which prohibited nonessential travel; banned outdoor social gatherings; and closed nail and hair salons, museums and outdoor dining — kept as many as 25,000 people from landing in the hospital with a severe...

Without reading the full bill, on the surface this sounds reasonable and probably where all theme parks should have been. https://deadline.com/2021/02/covid-19-california-legislators-bill-ab-420-disneyland-theme-parks-to-reopen-earlier-gavin-newsom-plan-1234687620/

Correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding was that a few countries like the US bought their way to the front of the line. Even places like Japan aren't vaccinating yet, because their supply is limited. Smaller countries can't outbid the likes of the US and UK. From talking to some...

Not sure what main point was if not to say that just because they are an "Island nation" their Covid response doesn't matter. That's what he's essentially saying. Most countries at this point are "islands" as International travel is severely restricted. The Island nation argument means little...

Don't confuse when things are announced vs when they know internally. I can tell you as someone who works in the industry they know well in advance of when things leak or announced. Anyway, I'm done talking about it.

Funny how you love to compare other countries Covid numbers to each other. Unless of course it doesn't fit your narrative. Then comparing countries is not realistic. Japan and South Korea handled the crisis very different than the US. The results speak for themselves.

It's not hard. You said Spiderman should have been the subject of the TOT retheme. At the time the plan was to retheme TOT on both coasts and they could not do that with Spiderman. They could use GOTG on both coasts, which is why it was chosen. They only green lit a Spiderman attraction...

It was not inevitable. Example: LA County population 10 Million Covid Deaths: over 35,000 Tokyo population: 37 Million Covid death 4,779 Tokyo is the largest most congested population center in the world and Japan has the oldest population in the world. Covid should have wiped them out. It...

It's reasonable to assume Disney knew what would happen a month later when they made the ride announcement. They certainly designed the ride before the deal was finalized, but I doubt they would have gone forward without assurances the deal was done.

The announcements were like what, a month apart?

I don't believe Disney reached an agreement with Sony on the Spiderman movie rights until 2019. Disney wasn't going to go out of their way to build or re-skin a ride promoting a property they didn't fully control. Once it became clear they had more control over the direction of the franchise...

IMO, a future membership may include more than theme park admission or discounts. The Disney bundle membership would include Disney + along with discounts on theme parks, DCL, Aulani, ETC. It allows Disney to leverage all of their offerings and entice fans to engage in all aspects of the business.
