    News Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance Standby Line and Boarding Groups at Disney's Hollywood Studios

    We were over here at 5 am. Currently third in line at the turnstile and eager to get in. Certainly a fun experience. We are with a CM who works the attraction and was on the test team, currently on his day off and he’s shared some fun tidbits.

    News Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance Standby Line and Boarding Groups at Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Thank you for this account! My mom and I are at POR this week and were wondering what our ballpark pick up time should be to take us over to DHS. We were planning to go (very) early tomorrow and possibly Friday too.

    News The Effect of “Frozen 2” in the Parks (SPOILER HEAVY)

    All I know is that that math is still probably too hard for @WDW Pro and his ‘friends in the industry’ to follow.

    Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

    Could someone give me a really quick run down of how they are managing the land and the ride queue? I was there in September and by that time there were no issues getting into the land. I was using the EEMH so had no issues with getting on rides either so this feels a bit of a new rodeo. My...

    News The Effect of “Frozen 2” in the Parks (SPOILER HEAVY)

    Goodness. @WDW Pro ... Your desperation to save face is obvious. It’s ok to be wrong once in a while. I guess admitting it takes more courage. Can’t wait for your box office analysis on Rise of Skywalker though.

    News The Effect of “Frozen 2” in the Parks (SPOILER HEAVY)

    After just 12 days... I was hoping someone would call him out on his supposed ‘expertise’ and ‘friends in the industry.’ Haha. I look forward to his explanation on how he was still somehow right. 🙄

    Largest attendance @ DHS in 5 years

    I didn’t want the pressure of pilot because I am terrible when it comes to that stuff, but I had a lot of fun as gunner and engineer. I think the preference on the forum for pilot is probably overblown compared to the general population. [The most fun I had was a combo engineer/gunner because...

    News The Effect of “Frozen 2” in the Parks (SPOILER HEAVY)

    Let me just go ahead and roll my eyes here at your first statement... I’m not an ignorant noob they way you seem to be implying. Metacritic currently has Frozen 2 at 65%, ie generally favorable reviews. It just set the biggest global opening for an animated movie. It’s going to do just fine.

    2020 The Year of the Upcharge >:(

    I don’t know if I want to feel ‘special’ and I certainly don’t have an Instagram but I do pay for some of the upcharge events. Am I always thrilled about it? No... but at the same time, paying for a good view without having to park it 2 hours before HEA is worth it to me. So sometimes I do a...

    News The Effect of “Frozen 2” in the Parks (SPOILER HEAVY)

    This... doesn’t reflect reality. Nothing says you have to like it but it still isn’t reflective of reality. 75% on RT, 93% RT audience score, and more important and probably most accurate, an A- Cinemascore does not “being poorly received by audiences” a perception make. I doubt there will be...

    The Simpsons in Disney Parks

    I’ll still enjoy it, same way I enjoy some of what you’d probably consider other “tired” IP in the various parks. I’ll always hope they add things to GE but I hope that about virtually every area in the parks, even the “Parklands.” I’m never gonna complain about more rides. I think sometimes...

    Disney+ @ Parks & Rollout

    Seems to be working pretty well now. Think they just got really slammed. I doubt it’ll be unstable long term. Altogether, I am very pleased with the initial content included. I love some of the back catalogue cartoons they included all the way back to the 1920s. It was wonderful to see some...

    Save the Adventurers Club

    Good god. And I thought my brother’s 60k Downtown Chicago wedding last month was bad. My parents were happy the rehearsal dinner was only 7-8k. My brother very luckily married a girl whose father could easily foot the bill but still... That being said, the wedding was a blast so I get it. Cheers...

    News The 'Disney Look' to be further relaxed at Walt Disney World

    I don’t have a dog in this particular fight/part of the discussion but... they also have make- up teams and professional stylists (yes, even for guests), so I don’t think this is a great example.

    News The 'Disney Look' to be further relaxed at Walt Disney World

    I said I care about details. Please don’t ignore the rest of what I posted. And though I care, it doesn’t mean I can’t make an exception once in a while. And truthfully I still care about the costumes. I can just let the tiny amounts of jewelry go. I know I’m not going to notice one bracelet...

    News The 'Disney Look' to be further relaxed at Walt Disney World

    I never said I don’t care about details. I care about details in a lot of places. I care about animatronics working and good paint jobs and cohesive fireworks and the list goes on. But I’m ok with CMs getting to have a small amount of personal expression. The majority of them work hard for...

    News The 'Disney Look' to be further relaxed at Walt Disney World

    Honestly? Yeah, Id probably be ok with it because the truth is... I probably wouldn’t even notice it. I’m not one to typically scrutinize CMs that closely. Now if they had two bracelets pinned over their nipples? Ok, sure. But a pink bracelet isn’t going to ruin it for me. And it’s unlikely...

    Insider info/ AMA on WDW's 50th Ann.

    Should we start playing the Mission Impossible theme for you? Will you be with Ethan Hunt or against Ethan Hunt? ;)

    Insider info/ AMA on WDW's 50th Ann.

    No idea on the answer to your question but letting things become stagnant is very in TWCD’s M.O. ;) It’s not like they’ve changed up A Galactic Spectacular or even Jingle Bell Jingle Bam either and those shows are mostly projection too. Look how long it took them to roll over the Christmas and...

    Disney Skyliner shutdown and evacuation - October 6 2019

    I just watched Alien last night for its 40th anniversary. They ran it special in my closest movie theater. It was awesome. And it also made me wish Alien Encounter existed too. And made me miss Great Movie ride. Le sigh
