It was fun. It was a "thrill" ride for young kids; the transition ride from Peter Pan/Snow White to Pirates/Haunted Mansion.

For someone in their thirties, there's a lot of good acts in that list. Nice job by Epcot.

Horizons

Let's be honest ... Disney could give any 5 of us a $500 budget, a trip to an arts and crafts store, some paint, and then 6 hours inside Big Thunder Mountain in the middle of the night and we could come up with a solution that would look 20x better than that tarp. The simple truth is TDO...

The point is that they can't fix it properly because it will take a long time and the attraction will have to be completely shut down. And because they built AK so cheaply and created a park with 4 or 5 real attractions, they can't shut down their signature attraction without people saying "Why...

Yup, it was one of those effects (not unlike the orange grove in Horizons) that you'd never know was missing if you didn't know it was supposed to be there, but after experiencing it, you'd realize it added so much to the attraction theming and atmosphere.

There's been several already. On the scale of annoyances, it's somewhere around ... 1. Ruining Journey Into Imagination 2. Yeti broke for years 3. Stich everywhere 4. No Beastly Kingdom 5. Under New Management 6. Turning Main Street into a department store 7. Black tarp at Big...

That's not really fair or accurate. I think most people who were around at the time pretty much universally claim the resorts were at their best shortly after original EPCOT Center was completed - right after the ticket books were eliminated and the Living Seas was opened. People's opinions...

Excellent letter

It's not the worst option I've ever of. It's become obvious TDO has no intention of doing what they have to do to restore the Yeti, so it might be time to cut their losses and at least make the Yeti a presence in the attraction. I don't think there's any chance of it happening though; the...

It really boils down to whether or not a conscious decision was made by the artist to include whatever intellectual property happens to be at issue. In other words, if you take a photograph of the Statue of Liberty and in the background off to the side is someone wearing a Mickey Mouse t-shirt...

Yup. I'm almost certain that's why it's there in the first place. Marvel/Universal Contract

I think you should re-read the contract as your understanding of the details is inaccurate. Universal has the rights to any of the characters in use in the park (and their associated "family members") - that includes images painted on a wall somewhere; in other words, pretty much every...

When did it start? When Frank Wells died. That's when Creative lost any power it had to the Bean Counters. Why is DLR managed differently? A combination of the fanbase revolting and the previous Bean Counter management botching DCA so bad that Disney had to move them out of TDA.

In Orlando? No. Everywhere else? Yes.

I've often wondered why when TLS was being created, they didn't go back and try and match the tone of the other FW attraction music. The logo was spot on (best of the group, in my opinion), but the music was kinda awful.

Best: The Tea Cups, Pirates, Haunted Mansion All Time Best: Original Tiki Room, All of the original Future World attractions (except for the Living Seas)

Yes, I was furious. I shook my fist in the air endlessly and then threw my computer out of my office window. Then I screamed for hours. The cops were called and eventually they tasered me to subdue me. Spent the night in jail. When they bailed me out, I had to run out and purchase a new...

Two things: 1. If there was no FastPass system, you wouldn't have to wait an hour to ride Splash Moutain; it would be significantly less than an hour, and 2. Everything in your hypothetical works as you say as long as you leave the park immediately after riding Splash Mountain. However, if...

In your hypothetical scenario, you didn't save any time if you were planning on spending a half hour to eat anyway. All you did was shift the time when you spent that 30 minutes in the restaurant. The same holds true regarding shopping, watching a parade or show, or just sitting on a park...
