    A Spirited Perfect Ten

    Can only speak to MK, but in the 4 or 5 times I've parked there since last Friday (friend in town), I've yet to see the back lots in use. Yesterday evening--eve of the holiday weekend--hadn't even filled Zurg yet. Traffic hasn't been great, but not typical holiday levels either. No sign of...

    A Spirited Perfect Ten

    #ThemeParkNerdStench Can't play a duck or a mouse unless he's like 5'4" or under (maybe 5'6", but Bomer claims 6', so no way).

    Disney Quest to close in July 2017

    I can all but guarantee that--decor aside--this place will show NFL, NCAA and probably even NHL and MLS games, in addition to NBA. Both NBA City and NASCAR Cafe at CityWalk did. This will be a giant sports bar first and foremost. Which is still a limited market--roughly 70 nights a year (plus...

    Rumored to have actual alcohol?

    A Spirited Perfect Ten

    If the secret of Ratatouille is that it's ostensibly a movie about artists but really about commercialism and critics, I think the secret of Inside Out is that it's ostensibly a movie about tweens, but really a movie about parenting tweens. BTW, a week out, still soon to have the conversation...

    A Spirited Perfect Ten

    Done right--and I have no reason to think it won't be--I could see this being the adult equivalent of what DCL was. Shaking up the industry yet again, bringing in a new crowd for cruising.

    Ask not for whom the bell tolls...

    This goes for all AdvClub fans: you can sit around mourning an empty shell of a building that has sat idle for 7 years. Or you can make plans now to attend Adventures in Charity 2015 on October 3, be surrounded by fellow fans as you watch 8+ former Club actors perform a night of original comedy...

    Ask not for whom the bell tolls...

    It was actually profitable. Not the printing press that Manequinns and (especially) 8-Traxx were, but it made a decent profit, with Jungle Juice factored in. PI wasn't shut down because of profitability, as the VP admitted in the Sentinel at the time ... it was shut down because of a...

    A Spirited Perfect Ten

    I realize a lot of out-of-towners probably don't realize who "skubersky" is ... this ^ means the "theme park beat" reporter for the #2 paper in Orlando can't get credentialed for Disney media events. Yeah, it's a weekly, but it covers legit local news in-depth and has often broken stories. I...

    Should we have an Official 'Halloween Horror Nights 25' thread

    Depending when you are here, every other weekend they do a midnight showing of the full movie with cast at the Universal AMC. If you're a fan, highly recommend that option.

    Should we have an Official 'Halloween Horror Nights 25' thread

    It's an older, fading attraction, I don't imagine they ever use the second theater September - November. Theater with the seats removed + preshow area = roughly half the size of a soundstage. Since normally can fit two houses per soundstage (don't always do it, but can be done), this should...

    Should we have an Official 'Halloween Horror Nights 25' thread

    Current rumors have it not coming back (it has never performed well, was a surprise when it returned last year). There have been various magic shows in that venue in the past, but hearing we might get a Jack show--either on the streets or in Animal Actors--but that's not confirmed.

    Creature Comforts at Disney's Animal Kingdom to become Starbucks

    Multiple reports on Twitter say they are not.

    A Spirited Perfect Ten

    Just when I'm out, they keep pulling me back in... AK is selling brownies shaped like animal dung. Let that sink in. Brownies marketed as animal dung. TWDC is LITERALLY telling its guests to eat [excrement]. For once in my life, I'm reduced to the Millenial cry, "I can't even right now."

    A Spirited Perfect Ten

    Sorry to derail your numerous derailings but ... Finally had a chance to see Dr. Blondie/Cupcake up close and in person today. As long as she wears that same skin-tight dress she had on at 7 am on a Saturday, she's welcome to use her social media PhD to Twitter all over my Facebook any time...

    Inside Out meet and greet

    Oogie Boogie was used to see an upcharge villains party. This wasn't advertised, and wasn't monetized (yet).

    Inside Out meet and greet

    But they shelled out money for two costumes, plus training--only to use them for a single theater load? I suspect they are being held for something--second 24 hour party on Labor Day maybe?

    Inside Out meet and greet

    You're incredibly wrong on both counts.

    Downtown Disney traffic is insane tonight

    By coincidence, been to DTD twice in the past two days. The garage has only made things worse (took away perfectly serviceable lots for a garage with a winding entrance and exit, not enough signage, inaccurate lights, etc.)--even at noon on Friday, with DTD far from busy, parking was a chore...

    The Edison--details announced

    Will believe it when it's been in place for two weeks. Curious how many people excited on this thread would give a second thought to visiting if it was in, say, Dr. Phillips.
