Spoiler alert: Pandora is awesome

M That's the name of the game for all of the 'insiders' who often overplay thier hand.

Ive been present at rehearsals, previews and premieres of: Believe Believe in Holiday Magic Remember Magical Disneyland Forever Hallowishes Holiday Wishes Once Upon a Time (Tokyo and WDW) TDS Fantasmic In addition to the opening night of a few other nighttime shows- And people seem to be in...

Soft opens seem pretty out of the question what with FoP's (many) issues that remain unresolved.

Unless they plan on pushing MK's closing back to 11 and 12, they have no ability to bring in a night parade. Of course, I expect MK to push hours back to those times anyway (stupid idea to make it 10 and then force-extend all of the CMs for the summer, ugh) so my point is moot if they end up...

Glad most people seem to be loving the new show. I was really fearful that the stubborn whiners would inject their poison into the discussion and affect the opinions of others (happens so often sadly), but it's awesome to see the almost universal positive reactions among regular guests and fans...

So can we be assured that they still planning on fixing the disjointed entrance area, the terrible pedestrian access, the bad handicapped parking situation, and the absolutely horiffic exiting process (the blindside left turns on curves all around the lot, and the stupidity that is having...

A signal for the coming tidal wave of failure. First this, next, all of Disney Springs, then all of WDW, then the whole company. This is only the beginning. :hilarious:

Not sure how you gleaned that from what I said. But this is simple business economics. Don't be so naive to think that Disney doesn't look at what their nearest competitor does and react to that. It doesn't mean Disney is following Universal. If anything, it means that they wish to remain in a...

You opinion is contrary to the facts though. Eisner wanted the movie park because he wanted to beat Universal to the punch. This was a reactionary move to Universal finally getting serious about building in Orlando. Disney "reacted" by turning a ride into a park and getting it built as quickly...

This. Funny how plenty of those concepts showed up in one form or another around Disney's parks once Eisner came over to Disney. Such a coincidence. ;) Universal's announcement came a few years before ground was broken, but that ground was owned by the parent company for Universal well before...

That book is absolutely from the perspective of trying to prove that Universal has been at war with Disney, and that Disney has continued to fight back. There's no grey area about that though. I wouldn't consider than an opinion. The majority of Disney's projects in Florida since the early 80's...

Not sure if you're being facetious, but if you're being serious then I'd suggest you take a look at a couple of chapters within this book that I think I already referenced: https://www.amazon.com/Universal-versus-Disney-Unofficial-American/dp/1628090146 The entire book is penned from the...

I must thank you for this thread. Cheers!

He got the park wrong. AK was a counter to Islands of Adventure. Still, Animal Kingdom is the closest Disney has or probably ever will come to attracting the same people who want to visit Sea World. Then again, much of Sea World's diehard demographics seem to prefer the animal performances in...

A huge word of warning about those still photos. The spotlights aren't really that brilliant. It's a lengthy shutter speed making things brighter than they are to the human eye. They look great in person, don't get me wrong, but if you've seen Once Upon a Time then you've seen some of those...

^ If you'd like to deem that portion of the show a failure because there aren't enough shells, then I apologize for taking your post out of context. I guess you don't find it to be "pretty phenomenal in all regards" if you don't care for the lack of pyro though. ;) I still didn't know people...

Still angry we didn't buy the physical CD of the show when we had the chance. I wonder how long it'll be until they get a new version to market?

The funny part is that he referenced SWAGS as some kind of example of a failure or something along those lines. Perhaps sightline wise SWAGS has (major) problems but otherwise it's one of my favorite night time shows I've seen at any of the Disney Parks. I'd rather they completely do away with...

https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2017/05/frozen-marvel-and-more-coming-to-hong-kong-disneyland/ It looks like the HKDL expansions (that OP said were never on the table to begin with, and then said they'd never be approved, and then said they'd be scaled back, and then said they'd be...
