    That's pretty much my teammates whenever one of my branches is up for code review.

    LOL. You know full well it's pick and choose with some of the superfans. It was a little bit of a troll, but also not really, but a few years back I posted that Main Street USA needs to be razed because it represents a problematic era in American history. So if that's the justification for...

    Well, there is Lookout Cay. But how it was executed doesn't fall on Rohde's shoulders.

    Well, we are in the "see, the Marvel character visited Epcot as a kid so this makes perfect sense" phase of visionary leadership at the Parks division.

    If they truly pave over a pretty riverscape, this will make their greenwashing dopiness about straws and cup tops even more hilarious. At least to me. Maybe they can use the tons of plastic garbage merch sitting, unmoving and unwanted, in Big Lots and Ollies currently and use it as fill material.

    Mater's Moab Adventure. I could get behind that. But in another park. 😂

    I've sort of suspected that's why they often didn't run the keel boats. "There is no merchandising or calculable ROI on TSI." --> "Let's not run the keel boats every day because why would we shunt guests to a location with no ROI." --> People can rarely get on boats to TSI --> "See, nobody...

    Yeah I know. I'm just moaning because I think this redevelopment is dumb. I sang the Pocahontas song on McAfee once. 😂 I guess this reno could be just lumped into the overall category of Disney creative geography, like how one minute she's in the middle of the Chickahominy and then a...

    I like that Liberty Square, which is fashioned after east coast colonial towns will seemingly (based on fuzzy blue sky concept art) look upon snowy, craggy peaks that refect western geomorphology rather than the Appalachians, Green, White, Presidential ranges, etc.

    See EPCOT's new generic office park plaza areas + that generic office park hallway / middle school cafeteria looking space. Exhibit A: The recent EPCOT Future World renovation

    If WDW actually ran the keel boats, it'd be easier to get over there. Maybe it was just my luck, but I think I managed to find them operating one day out of the past 4 visits.

    I don't want to read too much into fuzzy blue sky concept art from D23, but #SAVETHECAVES

    Thanks for posting that image and now I can fully see what others marked as Building A in the comparison images. Weird all around.

    ? You mean the fuzzy A,B,C,D image on the previous page? I can't squint hard enough to figure out what the heck is going on in that image to be honest, let alone figuring out of the labelled image of existing attractions makes jives with the fuzzy concept art😁

    So I haven't read through the whole thread, but are there indications that we're losing Tom Sawyer Island?

    Any Epcot purists cave into Cosmic Rewind yet?

    Define "cave." I've ridden it several times. I've never seen the movies, have no idea what the story is supposed to be behind the ride, but objectively, I think it is one of the most enjoyable roller coasters I've ever been on, and my coaster count is something like 55 or 56. That said, I...

    Masking Tape and the Environment

    Always made me chuckle when encountering... "We're eco friendly so here are some horrible, useless drinking straws," and later, "We're eco friendly so now you have to beg for a top for your drink cup and we probably won't give you one." and then noticing that almost every ride funneled me...

    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    I see Iger's still getting the company and shareholders to pay for his bizarre and cringeworthy NBA fantasies.
