I know when my dad was fighting cancer, being a non-driver, we had to choose between a 3-hour bus ride to get 25 minutes away, or me taking off 3 hours a week to drive him to and from treatments as well as the time of the treatment itself. Getting chemo and bloodwork was a huge headache and...

Oh I'm aware. I just know it hit its biggest peak with Tennant/Smith eras which is when Millennials got into it. Many boomers were surprised to see the show back, as they still remembered it as the B-level sci fi from their days growing up. And no, I have zero issue with Doctor Who. It's the...

There's honestly no attitude here either. I just think its funny how Dr Who fans always insist on the greatness of their fandom to outsiders and then act insulted when the rest of us don't care about their silly little show. Dr Who, Firefly, and Buffy fans consistently did this in my circles.

It's still pretty niche. It would be like me saying "Exit Pursued By Bear" and a nerd not getting it and me saying "wow, you never heard of Shakespeare???!!! Most famous author in the English language??? And you call yourself a fan of writing!" Plus, Giacchino is nearly 60. The 80's and...

When does something become mandatory knowledge for nerd culture? Magic is nerdy, yet I bet most nerds I know couldn't name a dozen working magicians. Amd this attitude is why I never watched Doctor Who .The fans are a bit insufferable and think everyone needs to know and appreciate the dorky...

I tend to notice, with folks involved in the film industry, they don't consume a lot of film and television. I know many industry people who haven't seen a single Star Wars property nor know anything about it. Doctor Who is so niche, I'm not surprised. Especially for an older person in the...

I barely know, and that's only because it's brief blip with millennials a decade ago. I've still never seen an episode.

That looks far more interesting than the current empty queue and void-ness of the current ride experience. Plus...it fit the name. And it was funny. The only thing I like about 3.0 is the forest section, and that's only aesthetically. If it could look like that and be still the ramping up of...

Didn't Yosemite go carless?

It was dead to me when the ride called Test Track was no longer telling the story of a test track and instead tried to be Temu Radiator Springs Racers. 1.0 was the best iteration of the ride.

Yeah, I envy those who live in walkable cities. You don't realize how much of a burden a car can be until you go a few weeks without one. It's so freeing.

My dad never had a driver's license. He took public transport and walked all of his life. I always use public transit while traveling.

Sounds like a win/win. No boring pictures of cartoon animal ride and instead a whole new Theme Park that rivals a lot of the Florida parks.

Rancho is incredibly smart as people from LA Country will drive to Rancho to take a high speed to Vegas. People from the IE and San Bernardino, and a lot of OC, will not drive to LA to catch a train to Vegas. I fly, but I only fly out of Ontario. I'm not going to waste a 90 minutes to 2.5...

Yeah, I've heard people suggest a Pokemon Snap ride, but it still sounds incredibly boring. Isn't the whole point of the animals is making them fight in pits/arenas? That would be like going on a Michael Vic ride and taking pictures of random dogs just standing around. Also, the locations...

I'm interested to see what they create, because I have never been able to understand how Pokemon could be interesting beyond a SLOP-like ride, much less a land or entire park. It all seems way too generic for me; so I hope to be enlightened.

I don't know. I see an awful lot of those oversized Pooh heads/hats at the park. I almost got one myself.

Isn't Pooh one of the biggest franchises in terms of merch sales? I ride the ride every trip and typically wait between 10 and 25 minutes, like other similar FL-style rides.

Wailt Dasney's gone rogue!

I loved Muppet Vision 3D, but I'm also fine with it being gone as it did feel sad and dated the last few times I experienced it. TTBAB will always be my favourite Disney 3D show though. That was the best show experience Disney has pulled off to date. As for why Captain EO was more popular as...
