It has not been sustainable for 50 years because Disney, while never “cheap”, yes, used to be more accessible to the middle class, even some of the lower class (my demo growing up). It’s been proven over and over that the cost of Disney has far outpaced the inflation rates. Your comparison...

Losing money is the goal? Gee golly I’ve been investing wrong

The truly only affordable and relatively good value remaining is the Florida resident ticket specials they do; and the pixie pass. Just my opinion. But even then, the value has decreased from years past (no more FP, no more complimentary magic hand, etc). I’m still waiting for the other shoe to...

Would you look at those prices. And my parents had the gall to say we couldn’t afford cable!

I love the gaslighting that somehow a stock that approached 200 per share and attendance at 21 million, is not underperforming when significantly below those numbers. Doesn’t mean Disney Parks will never recover to those numbers or that the sky is falling, but by any objective measure, yes...

I agree that the worst doom and gloom prognosticators weren’t always correct but to say Disney isn’t underperforming…well. Go look at its stock performance. Even with this uptick. Then compare it to years past. There’s a lot of room for improvement. And that’s fiscally (won’t someone please...

They’ll have to do more then one year old skittles to get me back in the parks

If it’s a glorified rhino rally, which is what Iger got all giddy about in the recent preview video, I don’t think it will be [a breakout hit]

I honestly don’t know why they wouldn’t do pins. Can’t be that much more money to make a pin then a magnet….

They’re raising ticket prices regardless, let’s not be naive

This is amazing! Thank you so much!

After much convincing I may have won. It will be DL. Any recommendations for best snacks, meals etc? I also plan on using LL for first time. Wonder how that works?

How am I defending it? I never commented on its merits. I’m commenting strictly on Disneys inability or lack of desire to expand capacity truly. It’s uncommon. Stitch’s great escape was a terrible attraction and has been languishing empty. But if Disney tomorrow decided to put a new attraction...

Agreed on the playground but the theater is a particularly egregious example of Disney’s bait and switch. Close or leave an attraction to languish and by the time is replaced it seems like it’s an expansion not a replacement (see primeval whirl for example)

Depends on what it is. Some concepts and IP are timeless.

Actually he’s a bit higher then what I’ve seen but I’m going to cedar point in August and I’ve noticed the Airbnb’s and hotels are quite higher then when I last went pre-covid. So exaggeration aside, prices have outpaced inflation and then some That said, I’m not rooting for the economy to...

He’s done Star Wars when he did HS. He’s a Florida > Cali transplant

I will do my best to convince him. He wants to ride Guardians, Spider-Man, etc and I can’t convince him that the latter is at least not a great attraction. You know how the casuals are! lol

What I don’t get is why here but not at DL. If it’s supposedly a nightmare to maintain and not a LL revenue machine here, it should be in the bullseye in Cali as well. Why does MK and by extension WDW always seem to get shafted whenever it comes to reskins > actual new attractions, thematic...

I’ll be hitting that VQ button at 6:59:59 am
