    I guess that's also for the five years before that and the five years before those as well? Or are we to believe that it's purely a coincidence that two D23s in a row they pulled the "blue sky" trick and all these major announcements for stuff, some of which it's reasonable to believe might not...

    If I had to take a guess, I'd say merchandise from Cars is probably more lucrative? Coco was a rich colorful beautiful movie with a touching original story that was an artistic masterpiece but Disney probably expects to sell more in Mater hats alone in the parks than they'd get from an entire...

    I recall when the park first opened, them having tables with giant sports Thermos dispensers giving out paper cups of cold water just inside the entrance area of Dinoland, in particular. Foliage hadn't completely grown in everywhere and that area in particular was punishing.

    What I find funny is some of the people saying this should be ripped out are the same who were gushing over the announcement of the new Epcot spine and all the nature and greenery that was going to bring in and how it would create so much nice ambiance in that area of the park and be such a...

    As have they in the many waterways across property. As have they in the golf course behind my home (daily). If people were swimming in Rivers of America I'd almost be concerned but then again, there are a lot of natural bodies of water including state parks all over Florida where tubing is a...

    Why? Is there some secret rule that Pirates, SM TBA and Space Mountain are breaking that I don't know about which says the train must circle the outer perimeter of the guest areas of the park under all circumstances? I mean, unlike DL, our train doesn't have you face one side which means...

    A company that used put effort into doing better in their parks than Universal? A company whose fans at one time, wouldn't have pointed to examples at Universal to justify bad decisions on their choices but would instead point to those things at Universal as justifying why they preferred going...

    I think Joe must have cut him off in traffic one day years ago or maybe got the last roll of TP at the start of the pandemic while they were in the same store.

    Watching someone try to compare a section of the Magic Kingdom to a Hot Topic in a mall* is kind of funny, though. *especially with malls and the stores occupying them being dying business models of their own.

    Because that's the view everything that curves around it was designed for. The Haunted Mansion, the main Frontierland pathway that has only one side, Splash Mountain Tiana's Bayou Talent Scouting Trip, Thunder Mountain. It gave a seemingly "natural" reason for all these things to face the way...

    It's basically like saying "We're re-announcing the blue sky concept from a few years ago as something we actually plan to do now, for-reals. It'll be open before your children entering kindergarten graduate from high school... no further details at this time. Here's some new non-committal...

    Except you don't. It's also a set piece for all of Frontierland and Liberty Square. "An expensive set piece that takes up a lot of space!" Well yeah, like the castle that as it functions today could and by the metrics being used here, should be replaced by a proper stage and larger restaurant...

    Just curious, did you crib some of this wording in the presentation made to management when someone pitched Harmonious as the replacement to Reflections of Earth?* Again, it's not just the attraction that's being lost that's the issue for a lot of people here. *to avoid confusion real or...

    Well, lets just hope they keep trying to make a movie for The Haunted Mansion that works and that they're able to somehow tie a current IP to Space Mountain, then.

    If it just being "the west" is all that matters, why not go full meta and put a mini Disneyland park out there? Maybe throw up a Holloywood Sign? Get some deal going with In-and-Out Burger? Those are all western things, if this is the standard we're talking about. Sounds ridiculous, right...

    Which they shouldn't be since rides only make up some of the attractions. It's annoying in discussion when someone, either because they apparently don't understand the meaning of the word or in trying to somehow "win" a debate in bad faith pretend not to.

    Many, many hours? So... would Kidcot be your #2? Also, when I say attractions, I'm not talking rides - I'm talking about what Disney themselves labels an attraction which at times is a generous interpretation here in Florida.* *I remember when Main Street Lockers were listed in the...

    The number of current attractions between the DL resort with its two parks and WDW with its four are roughly equal. Unless you're spending a decent chunk of time doing non-park activities (which they seem to offer fewer of these days than they used to) the only things that really makes the WDW...
