    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I don't think you'll find it on this website because it didn't exist back then.

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    What's your source for when construction began? That article says something was announced in 1990 which tracks with them supposedly starting to develop it in 1989 as they've previously said but it mentions nothing about the start of construction which isn't surprising since it's from 1990. We...

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Yeah, I was comparing the Milions and Dreamworks to the shade as a comparison of polar opposites. I think we agree in principle - it did not take six years to put this in. It possibly took a couple of months to fabricate and a few weeks to install. It's not like the ladder was there for six...

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I totally agree. I'm just trying to work within the flimsy framework of the original argument posed to me but what they're trying do here is compare when Disney announced they were building AK (1995 which is where everyone is getting three years) to when people caught Universal working on Epic...

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Definitely, definitely - totally not up to the craftsmanship of the shelter it took Disney multiple times longer to build in Toy Story Land to provide some shade! 🤣 Look, you guys can keep spinning your wheels all you want trying to say this isn't specifically a Disney problem but facts are...

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Disney announces early THESE DAYS because they need to have something to tell all the people who buy tickets for D23 when they don't have anything else to announce. Need I remind of the year they offered Blue Sky projects they weren't even intending to build when announced? I think this problem...

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Who did? Universal in 2019 or Disney in 1995? I'll wait while you rush to Google to see if you can track down an exact date land clearing and reclamation began for AK in the early 90's. ;) Or are we judging the two by totally different standards?

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I don't know. Seems like they managed to knock the Illuminations Minions Land and Dreamworks land out pretty fast. Those aren't whole theme parks and chunks of both were re-theming of existing structures but they're both active sections (particularly the minions) of an existing park impacting...

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I'm sorry if you think I'm being unfair to the largest media empire that has ever existed when I say they phoned it in with the other rides, I guess just Slinky in your opinion since you apparently agree with me about the other only ride added. We'll have to agree to disagree, though. They...

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    "These large corporations" is a euphemism for "just Disnney", right? I ask because without going down that path of pointing out the obvious counterpoints in central Florida which derail threads, they seem to be the only company seriously plagued by these issues. That or they've just been more...

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    For starters, not make the best attraction by a country mile for the new land be one that had existed in that spot for a decade prior and everything else being amusement park style filler? What they did was a little like making a "new" Haunted Mansion land at MK by taking the original...

    Okay, so both of 'em are "red flags" in their own unique ways ;)

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Out of all the parks with a TSL, we allegedly have the best version. Despite how disappointed most of us were/are with it, this was apparently considered an improvement over what they'd done previously with said IP. ... To be clear, the overall concept of this, in any Disney park anywhere in...

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    No. They tore down an old Wendy's and rebuilt a new one in the new format in under a year near me not that long ago. This is... 21st century Disney.

    News Disney Fairy Tale Weddings Unveils New Snow White and Evil Queen-Inspired Wedding Gowns

    Gentlemen, one of these two wedding gown choices strikes me as what gen y/z Tiktokers call a "red flag". Be careful out there.

    WSJ: Even Disney Is Worried About The High Cost Of A Disney Vacation (gift link)

    Dockside, one of the two cheapest resort options, which you mentioned is an obvious example of your point but their premium resorts (Portofino, Hard Rock, Saphire Falls, Royal Pacific) are a completely different story both in theme and in bubbleness. The water taxis provide direct access to the...

    ... and how much of it will be replacement vs. true addition and how much of the addition will be capacity helpers vs. crowd drivers? It boggles my mind that AK is getting replacements instead of additions at this point but looking at what they're doing, I think they are more focused on driving...

    WSJ: Even Disney Is Worried About The High Cost Of A Disney Vacation (gift link)

    Passholder, here 🖐️ This is true but passholders already have access to the other two parks so it makes sense we wouldn't be forced to buy combo tickets for access we've already paid for. Given they announced this when tickets first went on sale, essentially saying "passholders, hold on for...
