Didn’t want to start a whole new thread but this seemed like it was the appropriate place for this 🤓 https://www.thewrap.com/tom-staggs-disney-cbs-ceo-les-moonves/

Thank you for not reading my post and comprehending it, but instead moving the goalposts for your argument. I did not say nor do I believe the gondolas are “awful” and I said as much. I said you were comparing apples to oranges which you still are when comparing the gondolas to Pop. Pop may be...

You mean the "theming" at Pop which can't be seen from a theme park. Look, I don't think the gondola's and towers in sightlines are that big of a deal either and I think this is going to be a fun and popular addition to the parks (plus anything that is an alternative to buses is a win to me)...

We know you hate TDO, but really, applauding criminality is pushing it.

LOL, but that wasn't condescending at all.

So Berkeley Twp, not Seaside Park.....I worked in Bayville for 3 years and the borders in that area are completely confusing :)

So you are arguing that Disney could convert buses for trips to the airport that you are aware they don't use or have anymore?

You are right, we can't prove it one way or the other, but if you really think they even considered reducing the amount they were going to increase the room rate price just because they are now charging for parking as a separate folio item, I have a bridge to sell you.

Except the price for the hotel continues to rise as well as the associated fees. They added a parking fee in black and white, while still charging the same if not more for the hotel that "included the fee in its pricing." So, yes, so the other poster's point stands, they are charging double...

Four words for HS rope drop in the next year or two......Star Wars Galaxy's Edge. Was in Animal Kingdom just a few weeks ago and the rope drop with Pandora is a much different experience than it was last time I was there for a rope drop in 2015. I am sure Guardians and Rat at EPCOT won't hurt...

Even if EPCOT stayed true to it's original vision, it was never meant to be a "boutique" park. And we all know why it's unrealistic to believe it would ever be allowed to stay a "boutique" park ($). Also, I have another issue with some of the sentiment that talks about "consulting" us on...

Could also be bye-bye Stunt show.

That was always a possibility depending on the amount of cars on property, they were just often pretty lax about it, especially when they weren't busy, or if you name dropped a place within the resort that you were going to visit (oh I want to go to eat at the bar The Wave...etc). There was...

Before anyone responds with saying Disney needs to enact a ban on smoking and then enforce it, remind me of the last time you saw a concerted effort at Disney to enforce widespread guest behavior. They have basically given up on the dress codes at restaurants aside from V & A. There will still...

There actually a number of other things that could have happened as have been pointed out in other places in this thread, but make whatever conclusions you want.

They also apparently are less precise than storm troopers with their blasters. If that’s even possible.

True, although movies, in particular of the type that Disney deals in (Superhero, Star Wars, Animated, etc.) generate revenue in other ways too, such as merchandise. Also, the digital and video sales on their movies I wouldn't doubt tend to be better than many other titles. However, as you...

I would actually like to know how much design oversight they have...because maybe I'm wrong. Do they have veto power over everything, or just the ability to challenge a design choice that would lower the resort quality? Those would be very different things. I'm honestly asking, because that...

Disney screws up.... a lot. I was not disputing that. However, the only point is, call out Marriott/Starwood if you don't like what they are doing with Swan and Dolphin, because this is their call and I doubt that anything they are doing violates any license agreement they have with Disney or...

I'm pretty sure that if Disney tried to force them into keeping a particular design feature, that would be in violation of the lease agreement. "maintaining a quality Resort hotel standard" is a pretty broad area that Marriott/SPG have to work within. I'm sure Disney isn't really paying that...
