Roughness is a function of wheel maintenance and for a coaster this new nothing to do with the track itself. I’ve had rough rides and smooth rides in the same day on Stardust. If you’re having a rough ride then you just got unlucky and caught a car that will probably get a wheel replacement that...

Yes, my thoughts based on experiencing everything this park has to offer (except MoM) multiple times over multiple days. Is the park a Disney killer? To me nothing can kill the draw that is the magic and nostalgia of Orlando’s castle park. But will this park take another full day of a theme...

…and later in the comments they say Epic is the #1 park for attractions in Orlando 🙄 Again, the way you’ve worded your comments calls into question if you have been to Epic. I’m still waiting to hear your thoughts on the rides you’ve been on.

@Orange is the new Red just wanted to follow up with you and see what your three favorite rides were.

When MIB opened it absolutely was an E-ticket. It’s just that the Overton Window on what’s considered an E-ticket has shifted over the decades. I firmly believe a ride like MK will be viewed similarly in twenty years, if not sooner. Because when you boil it down, MK is basically the same thing...

Ah interesting! As a TM during previews? Were you able to ride some rides?

Agreed 100%. The bolded bit is laughable for those of us who have been in Epic because the level of details is off the charts. Aerials aren’t showing what’s going on in the queues, on the rides, in the restaurants, and yes in the bathrooms. This is how I know @Orange is the new Red hasn’t been...

Thanks for the responses. They are similar and comparable. I think Celestial has a touch more whimsicalness thanks to the portals, Constellation Carousel, fountains, and architecture of the restaurants on the outside, but I can see it still feeling sanitized to most. Without anyone in the park...

I’ll chime in: I compared it to Epcot’s remodel because I’m trying to see if the same gripes people have with Celestial Park (concrete, not enough shade, wide open spaces, devoid of any feeling) would then also apply to Epcot’s remodel. I haven’t gotten an answer to that question yet. If the...

“Awe-inspiring architecture” is certainly a new way I’ve heard to describe Connections Cafe. I do appreciate the debate though. Once you’ve made it inside Epic I’d honestly be curious to hear your thoughts to see if they’ve changed or remain the same. Cheers.

I think everyone prefers World Showcase to Future World. But I’m looking for a comment on Future World as it’s clear that Disney’s recent changes were an attempted step towards a more aesthetically pleasing “park like” entrance a la Celestial and thus I think is as close as a comparison as we’ll...

As the crow flies, it’s just under 1500 feet from the Epic entrance to the back path by Helios. By comparison, as the crow flies it’s just over 1600 feet from the entrance of Epcot to the World Showcase. Curious on your thoughts re: the existence of all that concrete, number of immature trees...

Celestial also has more work to be done before it’s ready for paying guests. The concept art shows mature trees, which of course Celestial currently does not have, but in the meantime there’s plenty of places to eat, drink, and shop to escape the heat. The pathways need to be able to accommodate...

Maybe I missed my calling then. To put it more succinctly, drone footage and a list of attractions doesn’t scratch the surface of the total theme park package people are going to find at Epic.

The critique of Celestial needing time for trees to grow against the praise for SNW doesn’t make any sense when you remember SNW is devoid of trees except for some palms in Kong Country. I understand the critique of Dark Universe. Unless Curse of the Werewolf has nighttime projections it’s...

Berk is the most visually striking and most balanced land in the park. Where a world like SNW suffers (in my opinion) for being too loud and overstimulating, Berk does not. A great family coaster (better layout, theming, and storyline than Slinky), a play area, a flat ride that can be as mild or...

You guys are going to be eating your lunch on this take once Epic opens. Bland theme park food has been banished from every corner of this universe. Epic will win awards for the taste, quality, and variety of its dishes.

I got to experience the show last night and it's absolutely excellent. Great soundtrack/song selection, great use of IP, good interactive projection on the surrounding buildings, and the right balance of animated drone usage. I wasn't expecting any pyro in this show, so I was pleasantly...

Correct, it is not the people working there being retaliated against. But then the corporation’s singular collective voice, regardless of whether or not everyone who works there agrees with it or not, is subject to the same protections as all those individual’s voices. That singular corporate...

Understand that, however I’m making the argument from the perspective of how we define a person in this country. Regardless of who speaks on behalf of a corporation, regardless of how that corporation may or may not be retaliated against for the actions of the people that work there, that...
