This will very likely be a nightmare for Disney. But if they pull it off in any significant way, I'll be very interested in what comes next in this vein considering what they will learn.

Apropos of nothing, does anyone have pics of the GMR backstage corridor and/or areas that the CMs to cross from the Gangster/Western scenes to the jewel scene? I'm also curious as to whether the skeleton wall rotated automatically or pushed by the CM.

Come what may, when he's old and grey, Rohde should release a book.

I'd love it if they'd add some movement to the figures on the Space Mountain lift hill.

A DL Vlogger seemed convinced that the issue they're struggling with is the part of the ride where you return to the planet.

There was an unspoken cohesion to the resort. Though, to be fair, I don't see any way they could have grown as they've needed to and maintain that "little big world" feeling. It was huge, yet intimate. Now it's just huge. And, yes, the sand was amazing.

That certainly may be so. It's not surprising considering the priorities of the current administration. The technology is certainly there, however. Also, ops will always have the ability to stops shows for other priorities such as safety.

While it is true they have been using cameras and a variety of sensors for a very long time, my point was that the show quality process could be automated to a point where a human's assessment is no longer necessary. They are not doing this currently.

That made me laugh more than it probably should have. And then I remembered how guests behave around the rivers during hard-ticket events and got a little grossed out...

True. But this particular fault was with the projection system. My point is that they now could point a camera at the stage and have a secondary system literally just watch the whole show, much like a guest would, and return a percentage assessment based on how numerically close it thought...

Now that machine learning is a more mature technology, it's probably time for Disney to automate some of their show quality monitoring.

That makes sense. Has the dam thing been done before? Or is this a new option?

Is it known why they are creating a dam rather than the typical full drain?

That had to have been the laziest IP tie-in. And the only good thing to come of it, the iguanadon in the water, was removed. It was meant to be the escaped, rescued dino from the ride, right?

I'd be so happy if they brought back the BerthaMae. They were a little dangerous, though, particularly around the Devil's elbow. I'd imagine the insurance guys didn't like the attraction before the capsize much less after. But they were so much fun to drive! It was a little complicated...

I really did not like any of the Disneyland indoor railroad sequences. There's a lot of great lighting in there. But the scenes still come off as very flat. I agree with the aesthetic that unthemed rollercoasters are bad. But on the opposite side of that spectrum is a highly themed steam...

I thought it was regional. While only occasionally, I've heard that accent for much longer than the millennials have existed. As long as he doesn't do that Disney Youtuber thing where they refer to their audience as <blank>-eneers, (And then suggest you purchase branded merchandise...

The only qualification I would add to that statement is that a systemic cycle of poor maintenance led this already challenged attraction into a quality tail-spin. (Ow-ee Yay) It's a shame they weren't ever able to make that underwater concept work. When it did work, it was a lot of fun. But I...
