Fair enough. It's not an exact science. I'm just an armchair inspector Clouseau. Even if he did do it Buzzy's theft is a victimless crime. Disney could take the hit and the company should have moved that animatronic a lot earlier. But the cheapest option was letting it sit unsupervised for...

Past behavior dictates future behavior. The guy who photographed himself with Buzzy's hat and earphones before selling them, probably sold Buzzy. Disney let the animatronic rot for years, they don't pay their hourly workers nearly enough. Can't be shocked people get tempted to steal.

All the harlem shake references are probably why it's not OG at WDW.

Finding K'Nex in that size is very time consuming.

Don't doubt this at all. If spikes could resist posting pics of himself with all the props, he'd likely still be employed at the parks slinging stuff on ebay.

I broke kayfabe. It won't happen again.

bubble wands are a cheap commodity that drive up a lot of profit. The language is slightly different but no goal posts were ever moved. I never said the parks had no artistic merit or intent. You drew that conclusion yourself. Obviously I l've enjoyed going to the parks enough to register an...

lol the hard facts are the wdw resort property sells a lot of bubble wands and this is all silly.

lets take a step back, this is all happening in a forum discussing if disney animal characters belong in a disney animal park that was built by Eisner to draw tourists away from Busch Gardens. My take is honestly about as deep as Kang and Kudos saying "all rides end in the gift shop" and it's...

i think its just my nostalgia goggles broke sooner than most here. I just view the company as a whole how many posters view the Iger/Chapek era. There's a lot to enjoy, there's a lot that causes skepticism. Ultimately i'm not gonna sweat it if the company puts Nick and Judy in AK. Encanto has...

Its not different. Everything is created to cross promote each other so that consumers from a very young age see those 3 circles °O° and associate Disney with fun, joy, nostalgia, etc. And therefore drop $$$. So whether its davy crockett on tv or standing in awe underneath SSE... its all...

replace it with Sam the Eagle's 3 hour grand finale.

I'm sure many monocles would fall into dole whips as the artists faint and gasps since i'm the first person to ever comment its always been profit driven.

Maybe i am not wording it right. When I say the parks exists to promote the media and the media exists to promote the parks ultimately it's all about promoting the Disney Brand. The end goal is cradle to grave consumption of disney product. Pretending or denying that hasn't always been the end...

I apologize for saying the department store with fun rides was always a department store with fun rides. I've been a glass half empty guy ever since Stallone cut SICO out of Rocky IV.

You quoted this line from my comment in your reply. "A lot of talent and creativity has gone into the parks" I believe that.

Disneyland didn't just sell antiques in 1955. Epcot created Disney media properties. Few are still successful today like Figment. A lot of folks posting here are rightfully critical of Disney's current managment, but at some point people have to take off the nostalgia glasses and realize it's...

Commercial art is still art.

I am not defending it. Obviously we all get attached to certain aspects of the parks, and we can all be a lil critical. The company makes it clear, the parks are not a museum and they're going to constantly change. To keep moving bubble wands. When did the Disneyland Emporium open?

One has to be willing to take off their rose tinted dangly earring. I said parks, I meant all gates.
