    Big changes to magicbands?!

    Disney can't do anything worse than Universal. Universal's antiquated bar code reading process is the worst. We just got back from there after not having been since 2007 and were surprised at the process. Once it rained and anything got wet all bets were off.

    Pop Century Room Rehab

    I thought for sure they'd re-theme this resort when it came time for the full refurb.

    News Disney Not Renewing Great Movie Ride Sponsorship Deal with TCM ; Attraction to Close

    I quite seriously forgot what thread I was in and what I was hoping to find out in reading these last 2 pages.

    Steven Tyler No Longer "Loves" That Idea, He Only "Likes" It

    To be fair I may have that backwards, it may be the auto-download to wristband that was not censored and the view the pic and scan your wristband at ride's end that was. But the concept is the same - a photo they thought required editing was edited in one method of receipt but not the other...

    Steven Tyler No Longer "Loves" That Idea, He Only "Likes" It

    So, interestingly, on this ride specifically I have given the "bull horns" or "rocker" symbol when pandering to the camera. The auto downloaded photo had it blacked out assuming it was a different gesture, but me scanning the Mickey head with my wristband for the photo did not have the same...

    Don't let anyone tell you they haven't updated RNRC recently.

    Disney PhotoPass Day with special character appearances

    Because as they create these character experiences as mentioned, staffing levels for single characters go up (i.e. the number of people involved in getting to see "The Little Mermaid" is higher than just "The Little Mermaid" and her "handler"). Multiple rooms, multiple people as the same...

    Disney PhotoPass Day with special character appearances

    Well, "fortunately" they forced Memory Maker on us annual pass holders so I'm already good on the "free" photos.

    Disney PhotoPass Day with special character appearances

    This is a throw back to the year of a million dreams concepts. Last minute opportunities and deals for guests. Interesting in that this won't drive attendance or likely Photo Pass sales. Wonder why they're doing.

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    These days, unfortunately, are likely over. The benefit of the parks is the opportunity to sell to a captive audience the other Disney properties. As Disney has become a much larger media and IP giant, having a captive audience to essentially pay you to spend multiple days being advertised to...

    New nighttime show 'Rivers of Light' confirmed to be coming to Disney's Animal Kingdom

    This is really disappointing in that I was hoping for some more crowd dispersion options come the holidays. And, the do need to get it right, they need to make it work to be an all day park. Though, they also have to give it time to work and not give up if it doesn't take off in the first 30...

    Paint the night is not moving to Disney World. Stop bumping this.

    I get we're all about cuts and eliminating cost, but I don't for a minute believe that the MK will not have a nighttime parade or some equivalent replacement. It's the showpiece of WDW (MK not a nighttime parade).

    Futureworld died long ago... sometime in that 1994 - 2000 time period.

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    Well, it does support the current direction that Tomorrowland is just a dumping ground for IP they don't know what to do with that is so loosely tied to the theme that anyone who thinks about it sees through it. I mean, really, Tomorrowland is Buzz, Stitch, Monster's Inc., old smelly cars...

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    The more I think about an Imagination redo, I'm not sure what I want. It likely spells the end of Figment and confirmation of the end of Dreamfinder, so maybe the longer the wait the better. Is it worth it for the pavilion to out wait the current "IP tie-in" mindset?

    New nighttime show 'Rivers of Light' confirmed to be coming to Disney's Animal Kingdom

    So off topic, but on the discussion topic, you can also get FP+ the morning of at park open or just before often times. Using mine trian as an example, both times we've been at the MK (granted this was January of '15 and January of '16 so not busiest crowds) at open, we were checking for FP's...

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    As has been mentioned, if a marine IP tie in is a must given Disney's current MO, then they have that tie-in with Finding Dory and the Marine Life Institute. They really could focus on the rehabilitation of marine life and better leverage the aquarium. Or, at least possibly allow you to see...

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    The question becomes what are the actual themes of the various parks? Now that IP is taking over all of them and in no apparent manner of theme (GoG in Epcot, Pixar everywhere, etc.) what will the focus really be?
