Hey now.. I loved it. Course, I was 13, everything about Epcot was amazing, and I'm still a sucker for Pepper's Ghost gimmicks.

With the Mandalorians in Favreau's hands for TV I feel much better about it than anything Kennedy would have ham handed through the movies, even if she had bad steadycam JJ at the helm. It's like they are determined to off their core audience.

Nostalgia, and 45 minutes of (albeit loud) air conditioning.

Building a completely new ride system (the centrifuges for M:S) is a bit different from having Vekoma build you a coaster. They have been doing it since 1926 and also built RnRC, 7dmt, barnstormer, and (sorta) the others as well, as they absorbed Arrow. They know what the are doing. Having...

That stuff was all at The Emporium last time I was there. With a complete selection at WoD. I think the main marketing idea with the shops is to put stuff like luggage, purses, etc nobody wants to haul around all day close to the exit.. "we can grab it on the way out" with a much more in depth...

Gotta love that immediate bounceback from MCO. bus driver: "So, when were you last here?" Us: "About four hours ago."

Yep.. after the pilings are poured it's basically an erector set. They don't want views, but there have been some leaked shots from the factory/test area.

"You move like pregnant yak" comes kinda close, as said by Master Chiun.

And wouldn't want a guardians film that he did do, either.

I wanted it done without Mary sues and pandering to protest groups. I wanted grand ninjas and Nazis in space, not the same crap I'm being yelled at about by talking heads on TV nightly. They had so much potential, and squandered it on needless insert characters that checked a quota box for...

Yes, but only because the general public found out about them. You had a mob with torches and pitchforks, hungry for blood, and he (and lassiter) were handy strawmen.

I don't know that they are. It might just be Jack that is hackneyed and worn. There's a bit of a tweet campaign against Depp due to Rowling "daring" to use him in the new movies, based on allegations made and retracted during an ugly divorce.

Yep. Drax is an Avengers affiliate.. and Universal has contract to the whole Avengers family. As to that clip in GMR.. a lot of properties Disney doesn't have the right to use in the park appeared in some of those clips, including Top Gun and King Kong. So I wouldn't put much stock in a second...

yeah.. it's definitely the recreational substances talking there.

In a nutshell, it's about balancing cap ex because you are anticipating a continuing economic boom with potential to lose bug if said boom doesn't pay out. Like building five new hotels in anticipation of increasing crowds, when you can't reliably fill the ones you already have. It's all...

It means you won't be moored next to a 'wege and a Carnival boat, is my guess.

Sure it does. Sewage is not necessarily environmentally impactful. A lot of the world still uses septic or other natural systems to deal with it, rather than treatment plants. I'd need to be shown it's doing some sort of harm before making a stink about it.

That's why I said "now". And half the parks, or more, on opening day were IP, flat out. I don't get this weird "they need to build new groundbreaking thrilling rides, but they can't be tied to anything people recognize" fetish. I just don't.

I was throwing Statler/Waldorf level stuff back at the skipper on one boat, everyone else was sitting there like rocks, and the Skipper seemed really into it. Nothing mean, just playing along with the dumb jokes and obvious puns. The best was when we were stuck, at night, because a boat had...

Space Mountain, the HM variants, Pirates, they are ALL "ips" at this point. Have been since the second one of any of them was built.
