    Dinoland Replacement Poll

    It’s just... it’s fine. No it’s not Galaxy’s edge, but why does it have to be?? It’s a little carnival area with a couple cheesy rides and some fair games. If it was Zootopia then it would be Zootopia and not much else. Sgt. Hoppes Primeval Whirl would still give me vertigo. Leave the few...

    NFL 2019-20 Discussion Thread

    Things I’d rather watch than Fox News’s own ‘innerTAINmint’ channel: 1. my own colonoscopy on video 2. Phantom of the Opera with Fran Drescher as Christine 3. 3 more weeks of Kobe Bryant discussion 4. The Patriots winning this game

    Canada far and wide Narration sure sounds allot like Horizons

    Ok I went in this today and have opinions: but... SPOILER IF YOU DONT WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THIS MOVIE ok, this far enough? Ok.. It’s worse. And pretty dull, and I have no idea why- Levy and O’Hara just sound like their reading for a PBS documentary. For two hilarious actors, there’s zero...

    2019 NCAA Football Thread - College Gameday is Live from Mainstreet Train Station!!

    A little shocked Clemson has dominated so far- assumes they’d be in this- but perhaps that’s the likely large coaching advantage given what seems like a month to prepare

    Poor Figment

    I get those saying it’s not what they remember 20 years ago (that’s true for a lot of things in life) but to just be unimpressed with the ride... yeah, no kidding, it’s not overly impressive. They could gussie it up some but even then it might just go from boring to mildly amusing. I myself even...

    Poor Figment

    I completely agree it could use a facelift, but just don’t think it’s priority at all. But yeah, HD the video up, perhaps refresh the tech on some of the (still effective) special effects, maybe redo the story with a similar theme, possibly a new actor. Could be done in under a year, but they...

    Poor Figment

    I mean, who goes to this ride expecting Splash Mountain? It’s a campy little dark ride. It’s good for some amusement and cold AC the 10 months a year it’s miserably hot here in FL. Really the whole front of the park for years has existed as ‘here’s some rides for your bored/whining kids to go on...

    Very Nervous This Trip

    Honestly I think reading thru here can sometimes do more harm than good, especially when it’s the “OMG RIDES RIDES MUST RIDE EVERYTHING RIDES” type posts. Do what you can. Relax. Have fun. It’s probably going to be kinda crowded, it is now during the busy time (between Jan 1 - December 31)...

    What's the max amount of time you could spend at WDW without getting bored?

    I just spent 5 there- 2 at Boardwalk and 3 @ Poly. We did HS and Epcot while at Boardwalk, 2 days at MK and one at AK while at Poly. I could have done another 2-3 days, but would have needed a day/ day and a half to rest the back and legs in the middle. I took the question as basically WDW...

    Can i wear this in the disney parks?

    Be sure to go to either a ticket window, customer service or (best bet here > ) gift shop to get an “I’m Celebrating” button for your birthday- worth the couple of minutes! Enjoy your day

    What will Disney’s response be to Universals 4th gate?

    If they keep adding resorts though, you’re gonna have to have somewhere to send them all. Their parking and transportation to and from the parks is going to be exhausted at some point too.

    Expedition Everest...How bad is it?

    Well it would be a great, fun mid level intensity coaster with a couple surprise twists and turns, structurally it’s great and not too jerky, good for most people from age 10-80. But, at the very end in about a 1-1.5 second drive thru the animatronic yeti doesn’t move around. So 0/10.

    Something needs to change with MK close on non Party Nights

    Then...maybe don’t go to parks? Or only go in slow season? Maybe you already are, which if so, good idea- I get the ‘some people don’t value their time’ part, but the other is you stating your time is more important than others, which, unless you’re a heart surgeon, no, it isn’t. That’s not to...

    Something needs to change with MK close on non Party Nights

    Yeah I’m not doubting him, but as a kid I really didn’t pay much attention. Sometimes I half noticed when we stopped at the resorts, but any memories I had of secondary stuff is probably 50% accurate at best. That’s me tho, I can’t speak for others.

    Trouble Exiting MK

    People I know that were there tonight said similar. Said the park was just grossly over crowded (whatever happened to ‘limited number’ of tickets?) and to boot, there’s a tornado sitting on I-4 between WDW and Tampa, so I assume said people are parked on the interstate, or in a Residence Inn...

    Something needs to change with MK close on non Party Nights

    People walking to the monorail resorts to then take the resort monorail to the TTC were always trying to ‘game the system’. In moderation, this is probably acceptable, but when you’re getting so many people doing so, then you’re making monorail resort guests, who did in fact shell out a nice sum...

    What if Disney went dry......

    Yeah that’s why I think it’s cool having it at restaurants at MK and AK. Epcot I get it because, well, that’s Epcot now. It’s as much for people wanting to get some round the world drinks as it is for kids to ride Figment and Frozen. A cold beer on some hot days there can definitely hit the...

    What if Disney went dry......

    If it’s a single person getting removed who may in a group.. I don’t know. I’m not going to do all the hypotheticals here and be that guy, but I think it would lend itself to an increase in drunk driving, beginning on Disney property no less. If someone is that bad, a night in the drunk tank...
