    HOW WILL UNIVERSAL'S EPIC UNIVERSE AFFECT WALT DISNEY WORLD?

    There is one thing I am really, really, looking forward to at EPIC. That is Dark Universe/Monsters Land. Been a while since I was that pumped up for a "new" Disney opening. SWGE was the last but the more the news leaked out about it the less excited I got. Don't get me wrong. SWGE is a...

    1000 dollar tickets, 1 day a year

    How much you figure a burger combo is going to be? I’m thinking $83.29 They also need to offset the money they’ll lose in the lot. So Mickey bars going to $17.49.

    1000 dollar tickets, 1 day a year

    You know. The more I think about it. I’m sure somebody would pay.

    There's also the possibility of Uni purchasing the Galactic Supercruiser Space Transports box trucks from Disney. :cool:

    HOW WILL UNIVERSAL'S EPIC UNIVERSE AFFECT WALT DISNEY WORLD?

    They could "theme" the busses. And using the dedicated lanes would be able to provide a rather smooth transition from say Diagon to the Ministry of Magic. Imagine driving near EPIC and being passed by a small, continual armada of Knight Busses.

    Other than Villains, what should the Beyond Big Thunder expansion be themed to?

    Is that akin to a non-specific "space land" that houses a Star Wars attraction. Been there, done that.

    HOW WILL UNIVERSAL'S EPIC UNIVERSE AFFECT WALT DISNEY WORLD?

    If I’m Disney, the one thing that would keep me up at night is the fact that Uni is trying to control the corridor. They’re going to book end it with USO and Epic and create an entire district encompassing ICON, the convention center, and the new development taking place north of Sandlake...

    HOW WILL UNIVERSAL'S EPIC UNIVERSE AFFECT WALT DISNEY WORLD?

    I think Epic increases the size of the pie. The bigger the pie, the more profitable the slice. My take is that both Disney and Uni win. And for us it makes Uni a much more viable competitor which may force Disneys hand regarding decisions that impact affordability. And in that case, we...

    Other than Villains, what should the Beyond Big Thunder expansion be themed to?

    Villains gives them a lot of directions they can go in. Easily adaptable should there be a need to add “new” villains, or remove old ones. Would draw off the strength of multiple IPs instead of having to conform to one.

    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    Just a hunch, but I think the cost of the refill just went up considerably.

    World showcase with 8…..no, make that 7 countries

    When did I mention I was disappointed because there was not "adequate representation"? Please point me to the post. World Showcase is what it is. And is what it has been since 1982. I always get amused when somebody thinks they can "fix" it.

    World showcase with 8…..no, make that 7 countries

    So there are ~195 countries. And you think 3.5% coverage would "pull off" a world showcase. Wonderful. Disney can't do it with 11. As it is now, it's a "Showcase of Popular Countries as gauged by the Average Western Visitor"

    Favorite dish at Yak and Yeti (Dinner)

    The pet peeve I have with all of these restaurants is that they end up removing everything I like. I'm still PO'd about Raglan getting rid of the Beefy Murray, and then the Ham Schnitzel. Y&Y used to have a great Mongolian Beef dish. Not there anymore although there are still beef options.

    Big River Grille and Brewing Works to close at Walt Disney World

    We used to grab a pizza and watch the movie they'd show on the lawn area. Used to be a nice night. My kids looked forward to that.

    Big River Grille and Brewing Works to close at Walt Disney World

    The pizza window used to be decent. Then several years ago they went to the chain style pizza that most resort food courts use. Another instance of taking something that was pretty good and making it mediocre so that their margins get better.

    Big River Grille and Brewing Works to close at Walt Disney World

    I'd like to see some type of Speak Easy Dinner Show.
