    Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

    I stayed and ended up riding. Final Kylo was down. Wait was 145m posted and I got on 2hrs with the delay which was probably half an hour.

    Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

    Got in line today because I rarely come to the parks these days and figured the wait time was an exaggeration (we had ridden a couple of months ago and waited like a quarter of the advertised time.) About 80% of the way in and....it broke down. And apparently the average time is an hour for...

    News EPCOT International Festival of the Arts 2022

    These people are pathetic. The parks with all their faults and deficiencies are becoming almost unbearable because of people like this.

    SPOILERS: Book of Boba Fett - Latest episodes

    First episode was OK. I can certainly see how people thought it was bad. This newest episode was great. They must have a lot of faith in the show to premiere it with kind of a stinker and follow it with a nearly epic movie-like second episode.

    Was Disney lying about perfection and standards?

    TDR is truly incredible. We were fortunate enough to go and as a WDW local it was a little bit of a let down going back to WDW (and this was pre covid and things have gotten even worse) As a former CM I respectfully say the worst CM at TDR is like a top 10% CM at WDW and DL. They truly love...

    Flamingo Crossing Retail Center

    Man, I'm a member of two groups on FB and they're incredibly depressing. One group is for people who want to move to Orlando to be near (or work at) Disney. Just a lot of people who arent really doing much research I suppose. The other is a Disney CM group where just the other day someone was...

    Chapek and D'Amaro continue the tradition of no bonus or Christmas gift for Disney's Cast Members

    To those saying that Disney is too big for bonuses ...lul....my company has over 120k people and we get bonuses. And it isnt a few hundred bucks either. Disney could afford a gift card for their hourly employees. Give me a break. But alas with all the lamenting here there are still so many...

    Chapek and D'Amaro continue the tradition of no bonus or Christmas gift for Disney's Cast Members

    Some people do. My sister just got $500 and her company actually kind of stinks.

    Cost of going to DW waaaay too high.

    Randomly looking up flights to a country currently not open to tourists doesnt make much sense though does it? There are sometimes flights to Tokyo RT for 300-500 bucks. Factor in the same timeframes (4 We flew from MCO to DFW to NRT for ~500pp a few years ago. Stayed at a cheaper Disney hotel...

    Disney's Hollywood Studios vs Universal Studios Florida

    I think that's where confusion lies. I'm talking overall not exclusively sitdown. Yes mythos is good but so IMO Finns is just mediocre. If I go to Universal I rarely plan on eating there. Big picture the food is a big letdown. Some nice places sprinkled in for an entire resort is disappointing...

    Disney's Hollywood Studios vs Universal Studios Florida

    I've eaten at several places and they're all terrible. The parks in particular are bad but even Citywalk is bad. Their restaurants are nothing to write home about and the only decent place is Red Oven pizza.

    Fire at Magic Kingdom

    It makes sense in a perfectly normal world but is quite egregious and miscalculated for Disney. Obviously not saying show over safety means letting people die or things burn in lieu of preserving the magic (makes me think of that South Park episode OLD TIME VILLAGE) but there were better...

    Waterstar Orlando Project

    Disney is inadvertently the reason for this. The Moving to Orlando groups on FB are....interesting. and depressing if you're a local thinking it's already tough to find a place to live.

    Fire at Magic Kingdom

    Disney can be so good, almost supervillain-like, in terms of making sure some really terrible stuff doesnt ever make the news or even get out beyond a handful of CMs but then they do something like this lol

    They are baack

    My parents are Spanish and Colombian. I was born in the US and almost everyone is surprised to learn I speak Spanish because "I don't look Spanish", whatever that even means. My Spanish is neutral. I dont subscribe to ceceo and my slang is a bit of both cultures but if I consciously avoid...

    Cost of going to DW waaaay too high.

    We go because we are local. Otherwise the costs seem astronomical. We travel a lot and find a lot more value in that. We visited Japan and spent 3 days at Tokyo Disney Resort for less than it would cost us to fly from, I dont know pick a random US city, and visit WDW for a few days. 2 weeks in...

    Disney's Hollywood Studios vs Universal Studios Florida

    Uni holds a special place in my heart. Growing up we would always go to Magic Kingdom and Epcot then do Universal when family from overseas visited us. I agree with the poster who said both parks are a shell of former selves. I'm a huge SW fan so Hollywood would take the spot for my favorite but...

    Their home looks almost exactly like the Granada cave homes in Spain.

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    I want to preface this with the fact that I like to think I'm cognizant of how dangerous this virus is. I know people who have died (as young as 34) as a result of covid. I am vaccinated and have considered getting the booster soon. I'm just not sure at what point we just ...stop caring...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    The concept art shows families in lobbies and rooms filled with a ton of characters. Aliens, droids, stormtroopers (not sure how there would be stormtroopers on this voyage unless the story every stay consists of being boarded by antagonists) I mean honestly I can see the story elements being...
