    News Dragon caught fire in today’s Festival of Fantasy parade

    Agreed that it's unsafe and bad show but from the reaction you'd think a bldg went up in flames! Point being, its slight sensationalism based on where it is, that's all.

    News Dragon caught fire in today’s Festival of Fantasy parade

    This has probably been mentioned in the previous 13 pages, but it's funny how what was essentially a non-event creates such a media buzz. Is everything a big deal on social media? Answer is clearly yes. ha

    The Disney Decade Ruined Me

    Yeah, its a shame but unfortunately it's the inexorable rate of change that is pervasive throughout the current business climate, really. I am older than you but spent much of my childhood and many of the past 10 years with my children vacationing at Disney. The cost difference versus even just...

    News Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

    You make a fair argument. Obviously value is subjective and there are a lot of variables. I can only speak from my own experience (hence the IMOs) but I can tell you that 8 nights in Sept of last year at Hard Rock hotel was $2955 including room and 4 day unlimited tix to 3 parks. It doesnt...

    News Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

    At some point nostalgia gets overruled by cost. Disney is still better in most ways than UNI .. however .. if you're willing to forego some of the pixie dust experience, you'll get more value for money and less crowds at UNI, which is definitely a bonus when you're trying to take a vacation and...

    Len Testa Crowd Analysis

    We used to go in Jan or Feb when the kids were little years ago .. Ah those were the golden years for touring the parks. Low crowds, great weather. Then we went in Sept for 4 or 5 years because of the kids holiday schedule. Now we dont go at all (2.5 yrs now and counting). Disney has effectively...

    Disney is fading on me

    Just don't go - that's what we're doing. They've lost our $4-6k yearly donation since 2015. We'll go back when there is a little more stability and increased value again. Its sad not going on our yearly trips to WDW, but gotta draw the line somewhere.

    Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I find it hilarious and sad that only 18 of the 49 items on the "new" DHS guide map are related to attractions or characters - everything else is a shop or restaurant. Of those 18, only 4 (four!) are actual attractions, 11 are shows and 3 are M&Gs. 17 restaurants and 13 shops. Let those numbers...

    News 2018 ticket price increases

    Most people think the ever increasing costs are the issue - I don't fully agree. Sure, we all want to pay less but the truly abysmal truth is that prices have gone up at alarming, record rates with nominal increases in capacity or even changes in content. To me, that's the most depressing part -...

    Cost of Disney

    You're going to get a tremendous variety of answers here! To us, it used to be a much better value - over the past 10 years the prices have gone up way higher than the inflationary rate, but that is due to demand. You can't argue with the business reasoning for that, it's a public company after...

    Come on man!

    Our week long stay at AKL in Feb 2006 was $2200 with 25% room discount (w/o food). A week long stay in Feb 2018 for 2 adults (I didn't incl the kids) is about $3500 w/o food (which includes a 25% room discount as well). $2200 vs $3500 in 12 years for a std room and std tix (not incl food), with...

    Horrible Transportation

    The Uber thing irks me like MyMagic did. It simulates a solution but is really outsourcing the problem to the guest (at a cost, I might add). Does the general public not see this? MM+ didnt add any capacity. C'mon people! Lol.
