    News Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Disneyland opening reports/reviews

    Gotta remember that the 3-week reservation period is to also help work out any hiccups that reveal themselves. It's not all that surprising that they are keeping things less crowded on the first day. They can always go to random guests at any point in this 3-week window and "comp" them a visit...

    Children are probably gonna be better at it than adults on average if video games are any indication.

    News Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Disneyland opening reports/reviews

    Aside from MF:SR being my first stop when I go this Fall, I know the Droid Depot will be my second. (Assuming RotR isn't open yet in September).

    News Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Disneyland opening reports/reviews

    It's impossible for any ride to please everyone. Believe it or not, there are people I know who shrug off Space Mountain, and others I know who just aren't into Pirates. I've personally been on Radiator Springs Racers once and haven't felt an overwhelming need to go again in several trips to DCA...

    News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Historical Construction/Impressions

    I suspect that there are several options for expansion. The restaurant is the obvious first step. After that, though, they could have a path past that restaurant towards more backstage space where more shops and a 3rd ride could eventually be placed, assuming they would be willing to axe more...

    News Star Wars Galaxy's Edge Disneyland opening reports/reviews

    Not for the under-30 crowd, who are the generation that Disney is more concerned with. The 40+ crowd (myself included) is gonna die off first, ya know? I expect them to do OT centered events now and again. I expect them to do PT events now and then in the future, too. The land was made fairly...

    News Paradise Pier Becoming Pixar Pier

    You asked "What would you call the middle?" and I took that as an inquiry into my opinion/perception of the park. I probably should have just answered "Arthur". :p That's really all it was. Typed language can be a funny thing, is all. We often read into it along the same train of thought that...

    News Paradise Pier Becoming Pixar Pier

    Saying "I wouldn't call that whole side of the park "the Middle"" (my exact quote) means that's not what I would call it. I even put the words "the Middle" in quotes to make it explicit that I was talking about *perception* and not ones and zeros. I wouldn't call the Rancho kitchen "the middle...

    News Paradise Pier Becoming Pixar Pier

    With all due respect, I thought you were interested in why I perceived the park as being "middle-less". A conversation about the literal middle would of course be pointless because it just comes down to math. So we were talking past each other, as I was making a point about the "vibe" of the...

    I wasn't talking literal, I was talking how I perceive it. It doesn't "feel" like the middle.

    News Paradise Pier Becoming Pixar Pier

    I edited my post before you responded, but DCA has no middle. It has a short entrance, then a "front left" corner (Hollywood), "front right" corner (Sourin/Grizzly), a "back left" corner (Marvel/Cars), and a "back right" corner (everything around Paradise Bay / Pixar Pier). It makes everything...

    News Paradise Pier Becoming Pixar Pier

    I wouldn't call that whole side of the park "the Middle". One of the problems with the DCA layout is that it's a park without a hub middle. Everything seems to be in its own disconnected corner/pocket past the entrance. To me, LM is part of the "back right" corner (when looking at the park from...

    News Paradise Pier Becoming Pixar Pier

    Mermaid is just too isolated. If they could add more D/E ticket rides around it it would likely do better. It's just not a ride people head towards for specifically, but if there were better rides/attractions where Wine Country/Blue Sky, Goofy/Corndog and Redwood Creek Challenge trail are...

    News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Historical Construction/Impressions

    Is this the restaurant that can still be built a few years down the road? Or is this a different location? (I still don't have a great understanding where all the food services and shops are).

    Mickey’s (Faliure)magic OR The Non-Repeatability of the Film Theater Shows at the DLR

    This is mostly a projection issue. Movie cineplexes are in the habit of having the brightness levels too low for 3D screenings.

    Mickey’s (Faliure)magic OR The Non-Repeatability of the Film Theater Shows at the DLR

    There are three types of 3D films for the cinema: 1. 3D used by an auteur who understands storytelling through composition, where the idea of depth to an image is used to contextualize the shot as part of the story experience. Examples include Hitchcock's Dial M for Murder, Scorsese's Hugo, and...

    Rumor Fantasyland Expansion

    It should be noted there have also been rumors about upgrades to the classic FL dark rides on a rotational basis over the next few years (those being Pinocchio, Snow White, Peter Pan, Mr. Toad and Alice). I can see them adding some needed touches, but I'm not sure how far they'd really go. I...

    Rumor Fantasyland Expansion

    Since they will be getting rid of that access road right behind Toontown for M&MRR they could in theory make that proposed BatB show building push out further into the backstage area to match. That would add about 1/3rd more size, though the layout would be more rectangular. However, I think the...

    Rumor Disneyland Tomorrowland Future - What to do?

    I think this is what she was getting at as well. If Disney is able to do a dark ride similar to what Tokyo is getting for BatB, along with the BatB restaurant from Florida, I believe that would be an enormous hit with fans all around. I was thinking we'd be getting the Frozen version of this...

    Rumor Disneyland Tomorrowland Future - What to do?

    I could see that working just as well. My guess is wrap around the area where Buzz currently sits, with part going over the lagoon. If they are able to put a dark ride in the footprint where the Launch Bay / Carousel is, I would hope they would build it to have the Asro-Orbiter spinner on top...
