You’re doing the MOST right now.

Elaborate?

oh? No? Okay! In all actuality, I always (and still) don’t understand why the bar was named after him, nor why he was holding a ball of fur (turns out it was a shrunken head, but the face more often than not is turned away from the boat). He’s way too cartoonified, he doesn’t fit in the...

gift shop gag sounds fun, lots to look at on repeat trips round the river! I always asked myself, geez, is the Trader Sam figure the best thing they could come up with?

If it means children don’t have to see themselves primarily as savages, let it be.

This made me chuckle, to think of all the weird wacky and wild things Trader Sam has found throughout the jungle. This seems like a way more interesting fit than the previous janky statue, which had such limited movement and a really uninteresting gag/story.

A mediocre remake!? It’s absolutely not. From the incredible wallpaper transformation in the foyer (and the fading tricks of the portrait gallery) to the underground crypts, Phantom Manor succeeds in each and every reimagined moment it presents. It is should be the crown jewel of “plusing” an...

I actually adore that idea! On my first few times on the Haunted Mansion, I had no clue it was a hanging man. The figure is too thin and not lit well enough to discern in the brief flash of lighting. I wouldn't mind a "scene" like the web man. Very good point!

I hope I'm alive for the replacement of the FL Theatre. Absolutely a wasted space. However, aren't the Canal Boats just too splendid to remove?! I think so! It actually is the perfect berm/buffer between Fantasyland and a future show building. As for IASW, it is absolutely wonderful in Paris...

Anyways, I wish Kim and the team could come spruce up Galaxy’s Edge with some fun moments. Does Kim have any say at California Adventure? Grizzly River Run also could feature some new moments thought the experience. Id also love to see some updated materials in Space Mountain, but I’m sure...

Linda and Paul and their darling children are already too distracted by their phone screens to worry about a transforming portrait or a moving floor. Imagineering often over achieves in the art of spoon feeding. I applaud their ability to add new moments in what was previously an un-themed...

Oh wow, I forgot how bleak that spot was. The trash can was really the center focus of the pivot. Kim and the team actually went quite beyond with this one!

The divider and portrait seems like wonderfully spooky texture added to a previously dull space. It is great that technology can deliver concepts of the past, thats some creative progress right there. If this see-through item really hinders people, then I just don't see how we even made it this...

If you can recall, what was the original line?

I might argue that the new guests will be even more aware, as our attention spikes when we can’t see something completely. One might me more curious as to what the movement is, therefore more in tune to it’s mechanics once in full view. That’s usually how our minds work.

I believe the issues with ride stoppages have more to do with difficult wheelchair and scooter transfers than the typical patron boarding the ride vehicle. I’ll provide two more examples, Hagrid’s Motorbikes and Forbidden Journey also move while boarding yet give absolutely no time for guests...

Hm, should the guest "need" to see a ride vehicle? There is no need to see any ride vehicle before boarding, if the idea supports the withholding or masking as a story element (which in this case, I think Mansion withholds purposely and masterfully). Rise of the Resistance greatly succeeds in...

I bought a 5-day park hopper ticket for $372 for an early feb trip. On my first day, Feb 8 2020, I spent $204 upgrading to Flex Pass (without max pass) for a total of $576. The Flex Pass window price was $599 at the time of purchase (it would increase to $649 shortly after). I used my union...

Too much money and resources spent on these auxiliary experiences. I believe they think this adds authenticity and unprecedented "world-building," but it actually dries out the actual place, which exists unsupported during a lull in the story's timeline.

Was Scott Towbridge’s interview in the Imagineering Story discussed here? “That was not technology that existed. We started marching down that path with the expectation that by opening, it would work. We didn’t know. Months before opening, It doesn’t work. It almost works. It has almost worked...
