    News Expose reveals WDC control in online fan community

    One other point....The other writer of the Al Lutz hit piece is DustySage's bitter ex-husband. DustySage operates MiceChat. I find it funny that the article "exposing" MiceChat as a paid shill actually pinpoints that Spirit is the paid shill and the community is like "whatever"....but what...

    All things Magic Mountain

    I'm assuming because of lawsuits. I loved it, but it was a notorious head-banger. If I remember correctly, it you didn't sit in the front outside seats, you couldn't see anything and were guaranteed a headache.

    All things Magic Mountain

    I loved this ride. Sure there wasn't much to it, but after running around the park all day it was a nice place to relax and enjoy the scenery. Plus if remember correctly, the lower half was tree covered, so it was also a cooler place to sit!

    Best value at Universal?

    It really depends on what you are looking for and when you plan to go. If you plan to go when it is busy, the high end hotels (Royal Pacific, Hard Rock, Portfino) can offer a better overall value than purchasing Express Passes separately. If it won't be busy or front-of-line access isn't a...

    Disney Officially Confirms Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Underperformed

    P.S. For 2019 Q2 results, Uni theme parks only announced a "single digit" increase in attendance. They usually announce a number so I'm assuming this is closer to 1% than 10%. The drop in global tourism is definitely hitting the theme park industry. I don't think we can really understand the...

    Disney Officially Confirms Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Underperformed

    There I fixed that for you. I always love the narrative that USH was somehow a theme park that was built to compete with Disney. Universal Studios opened to studio tours in 1915. The tram didn't open until 1965, and it was exactly that. A tram that drove through a working moving studio, not...

    Disney Officially Confirms Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Underperformed

    I don't have the numbers handy, but I think USH (not Orlando) did have problems overpricing and over-blocking their APs in the lead up to Wizarding World. Similar to DLR, only the newest highest priced AP allowed entry during the Wizarding World opening. They eventually did change their AP...

    Pixar Pals Parking Structure Specifics/Updates

    Funny you should mention that. A local radio station is giving away tickets to the park. Nothing about Star Wars or Parking in the promo, but they do talk about being the first to access Disney+!

    Original Disneyland

    Thanks for the great write-up! Maybe one of you know if this is "Disney Myth" or not. I had heard the reason the mansion was built so early was that imagineering kept coming up with plans that included some kind of decrepit house. Walt didn't want any decrepit buildings inside Disneyland so...

    Original Disneyland

    Hopefully TP2000 has more details, but if I remember correctly New Orleans Square was always planned as part of the park. The Mansion facade building was built as part of the New Orleans Square expansion prior to Pirates of the Caribbean and before imagineering had decided on a final "haunted"...

    So was paid attendance up based on ticket cost or number of purchases? It sounds like from the earnings call summary that Toy Story toys was the only real winner for the quarter.

    I get that, but I must have missed the movie (there are so, so many) where to become a Jedi all you have to do is walk into Apu's Lightsaber and Squishee shop and buy one. I mean seriouly you get the same Yoda recording if you pick Blue or Red? Thank you, come again.

    OMG, what did I just watch? I realize these are still early previews, but this looked about exciting as a trip to the Optical counter at Costco. The only difference being you actually get to use your glasses when you're done at Costco.

    I'm blown away that people have already decided if this park is gonna succeed or fail based on some purposefully vague artwork with some text added by someone on Twitter :) Congratulations to the entire Uni team for making this possible!

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    Didn't even think of this before...If there is a new off ramp on 528 that goes directly to the new resort parking lot, most people going to Disney from the airport would have to drive right past this.
