    Rumor New Monorails Coming Soon?

    I'd be curious how much "pushing the envelope" WDI is actually doing. The Shaman was built by Garner Holt, for example. Disney shut down MAPO in 2012, sending that work to GH. It's unclear how much "advanced work" is being done at WDI at this point. It would be interesting to know. But, it's...

    Rumor Higher Speed Rail from MCO to Disney World

    I don't have a problem with that, in theory. Where I have the issue is when employers deliberately under-pay workers and put that burden on the taxpayers. This is what we're seeing in the hospitality sector, not just the theme parks. Public transit is notorious for not addressing the "last...

    Rumor Higher Speed Rail from MCO to Disney World

    Sorry. Not following... We're talking workers, not customers. #2 spend for workers is transportation, just behind rent. For them to find affordable housing, they can't live anywhere near the parks (Disney or Universal). Just taking those two companies into account: Disney handles their workers...

    Rumor Higher Speed Rail from MCO to Disney World

    IMO, this should be funded by the hotels and theme parks directly. There are plenty of companies that are providing this for their low wage employees. Hotels and Resorts need to step up to the plate on this.

    'Finding Nemo: The Big Blue… and Beyond!'

    We went less frequently (every 2yrs). We never got bored with it. But, we're big Nemo/Little Mermaid/Moana fans.

    'Finding Nemo: The Big Blue… and Beyond!'

    Maybe you're in the parks more than us? It's been a "must see" for our family every time we've visited AK.

    Isn't the screen better than the disco effect on the Yeti? 🤣

    Dinosaur AA Not There

    Pitch black is modis operendi for that ride for a while now. Wish you could actually see the AAs on the ride. But, the lighting stinks! I've seen some low-light videos on youtube. Wish I could actually see the ride in that context. It would be amazing.

    Rumor Higher Speed Rail from MCO to Disney World

    It's not an either-or situation. You need to widen the roads in a timely manner. But, you also need to provide real alternates; not detours through existing neighborhoods. Government is slow to react to development and does not place the tax burden on the developers. If the developers had to...

    Well, as long as you have buyers, the pyramid stands. And, the DO have buyers -- just review this thread!

    EPCOT Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind SPOILER Thread

    How do you get 5 rides in one day? I thought the VQ limited you to 1 per day. With an additional ILL, that would be two.... Not sure I follow how that works...

    News Disney to offer discount on new MagicBand designs as an optional alternative to complimentary solid color MagicBands

    The joke was "All Start", not "All Stars".... But, also, there's a lot of talk of, "Oh, My DVC at Poly/Contemp/AKL...". So, I do like this band, just on so many levels!

    News New guide map for EPCOT late May 2022

    I'm guessing the rest of GotG:CR building is under the strategically placed Transportation legend?

    Nothing says, I spent less on my Disney Resort than you did, than an All Start Resort MB!

    Return to normality tracker

    gotcha. that helps. There should be more corp responsibility in employment. Maybe requiring larger payments into a system that dis-incentivizes layoffs while funding a proper backstop when it does happen. But, yeah. You're telling workers to bug off so easily that they're opting to work at...

    Disney plans to build a massive dynamic art installation on International Drive

    I dunno. People are still coming in droves. I almost they they'd pack the parks if they turned everything off and let people experience it that way. Waht can they do to make the average guest say, "Enough is Enough"? They've been pushing that tipping point for more than 5 years now. Crowds have...

    News Splash Mountain retheme to Princess and the Frog - Tiana's Bayou Adventure

    They can be underground. But, many, like Avery Island, push the land above them up. So, they do create uprisings. Some have made themselves known by upsetting bridges on Beltway 8 in the Houston area.
