What kind of segment were they taping without Rachael being there?

Looks awesome. Should be a great additon to DTD, and help to thin out some of the dining crowds there. Being a part of the minority who is actually a fan of Rainforest Cafe, I'm really looking forward to eating there. I'm kind of surprised they're taking ADRs. Does the Rainforest Cafe in...

Reading the wording in that quote regarding the "more compact" version, it does not sound like it would be cost-related (and whether or not that means it is space-related, I have no idea). Considering the budget and timeline are not confirmed, "watering down" seems to happen when budgets are set...

Assuming the plans for the Snow White family coaster are correct, there is no way it would fit in the current building. Because BatB is a dark ride, it would fit in the Snow White space. Are you saying Disney is not affected by the "economic" problems of the U.S.? Or are you saying cutting down...

This is not a surprising change. I think two big limitations to PAL Mickey were the price and the need to carry a plush doll everywhere. It is much easier to utilize something that someone may already be carrying, like a smartphone or Nintendo DS. This would also be cheaper than having to...

As far as role of the economy in this situation, it is not surprising to hear there will be delays or cutbacks. It's good to see a potential timeline though. Also, nowhere in the article does it state TLM is not happening, just that it's pushed back. I know bashing him is the hot thing to...

Interesting. I was under the impression that Camp Minnie-Mickey is the "biggest band-aid on property," or at least in AK, because there actually was supposed to be something else in that location. And just to try to create a distinction, is it Dino-Rama that "doesn't fit" or is it Dinoland...

Is he going to put on an eating demonstration?

I second the motion to never see this at Disney. And to answer the questions, I would likely not purchase this kind of a pass. It is not something I have done at US, so I don't really see that changing if it was brought to WDW. As for it being a motivation to stay in a deluxe resort, again I...

I guess you may have to stick with the nuts here.

Pirates of the Caribbean. It's actually my favorite attraction of all.

I'll have to check it out when I'm on a computer that doesn't have Facebook blocked... So does it allow me to send the Carousel of Progress to my slacker friends?

As sbkline indicated before, one of the creators of the magazine stated

I typically find going to DTD is a nice way to spend a first day, especially when arriving in the late afternoon or evening. It can be a nice bridge between the "real world" and the Disney experience, and you can take it at whatever pace you want to go. If you do head to Epcot the first night...

I would weep sweet, sweet tears of joy if any of the new attractions had anything to do with Tron. Isn't it a new movie using the same ride system? In this article someone from ILM indicated that ST2.0 was his next project. Also, with the indicated rumor of an added pavilion to Epcot, could it...

If it is relevant, it gets brought up. HRC being one of the two key components of wait time, it seems OK to bring it up in a discussion about wait times. The problem with guests backing up and the queue entrance is not just about wait times, either. Some areas are not very conducive to a large...

I guarantee guests who don't have their IDs out will be commonplace. Also, any kind of bottlenecks increase the possibility that empty or partially filled rides/cars/etc. will be launched. This reduces the actual HRC, which does increase wait times. Basically if the queue is long, a...

I'm aware of that, I was just pointing that out because Krack indicated "the attraction to Discovery Cove is not ziplines, paying outrageous prices, being able to do something without the riff-raff (average Disney family) around, etc. The attraction is swimming with dolphins." Personally I...

Certainly a scanning system can be implemented. That's what they use at the park entrance. The bottleneck comes from the fact that an attraction has one entrance and one CM checking IDs. Park entrances, or the NYC subways, have many turnstiles for guests to go through. Just look at how long the...

You don't have to copy an idea to compete with it. McDonald's competes with Rainforest Cafe at DTD, but they provide a completely different experience and go about attracting customers in completely different ways. And besides, dolphins are not the only thing that can attract guests to a premium...
