    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    Just noticed this other animatronic in the background of the video, presumably one of the Tiana figures they didn’t show?

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    I was including Naveen in that list! It sounds like we have at least 5 Tianas, 4 Louis figures (I think the tail in the log counts as one), 2 Mama Odies, Naveen, 3 relatives/friends of Tiana, and 13 critters including Juju.

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    Great catch! I’m assuming Avi is Mama Odie? Based on that list/the video and the other confirmed critters I’m counting 28 new animatronics. Then I’m wondering if there are repeats of any of the new critter band, plus some potential reused animatronics. That might add up to 42 in total, but I...

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    Do we think there’s any possibility that it’s 42 new animatronics with some reused ones making the count closer to the original? Or maybe it’s a red herring and just a fun Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy reference🤣

    Dinosaur has seen better days

    Slightly off topic but since people are talking about Dinosaur I wanted to drop this video here. Someone was able to get isolated dialogue and sound effects of the ride, including unused dialogue and what sounds like temp music. I wonder if they were ever considering having music on-ride like...

    News Rogers the Musical coming to the Hyperion Theater

    As much as I love Marvel and theater this doesn’t do it for me. It’s not horrible or anything but I’d much prefer Aladdin or Frozen. I feel like half the songs are trying to emulate the fun from the Hawkeye show (Nick Fury’s song, Star Spangled Man) and then the rest is trying to be legit...

    Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind SPOILER Thread

    I'll be interested to learn if it really is a soundalike for Rocket or if it's Cooper. If I'm not mistaken, Groot on Mission Breakout was not voiced by Vin Diesel, or at least it didn't sound like it. I feel like that's fine since he really only says that phrase, but Rocket is much more involved

    Lin-Manuel Miranda Pitches Encanto Attraction to Chapek?

    Maybe it's recency bias, but from the start Encanto has seemed like it will have staying power in pop culture. I also don't think it has the phenomenon Frozen or Stitch had where it was everywhere after it released to the point of fatigue. Plus, the idea of an adventure with a magical family in...

    Why Do People Prefer Indiana Jones to Dinosaur?

    I absolutely love Dinosaur, but I also haven't had the chance to ride Indy, and I usually concede that it's the better quality attraction. A lot of my enjoyment from Dinosaur comes from it's interesting history and bizarre quasi-ties to the movie, but one thing I've always enjoyed is the thrill...

    anyone ever get compped free fast passes?

    I’ve gotten a couple pre-COVID for ride related issues The first one we didn’t really deserve but were glad to receive. My group had been waiting in the Dinosaur standby for ~10 minutes before the ride ultimately shut down and had to reset. The CM’s ushered Fastpass and Standby to the exit and...

    Night at the Museum Ride at Disney Parks?

    There was going to be a Night at the Museum ride at Genting SkyWorlds when it was originally Fox World Malaysia. There were a ton of issues with the Disney deal and this park and they lost a lot of the IP they could use, but the ride might still open when the park is open to the public

    Nintendo partnering with Universal to make attractions.

    IMO you really can’t properly judge the AR until you ride in person. It’s clear that it’s not easy to film and line up with a camera compared to your eyes People have filmed Spider-Man under the 3D glasses and it looks nothing like the final product in person

    New Dinosaur B-Mode?

    One of the things that interests me about Dinosaur is that it has plenty ofB-modes for its animatronics, especially the carnotaurus figures. I watched a couple videos of the ride post-reopening, and in both of them the first carno was in B-mode. However, the static figure that they used looked a...

    Controversial/ Unpopular theme park opinions

    I've said it before and I'll say it again: SGE is not a good attraction, but it is in no way the worst attraction that Disney has put out. The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man is still one of the best examples of blending digital and physical effects on a ride

    What are everyone's thoughts on the "Theme Park YouTube" culture?

    I know there's been discussions about theme park vloggers on these forums, but I wanted to get peoples' thoughts on the many channels on YouTube that feature facts, stories, and histories of theme parks and attractions. I'm talking channels like Defunctland, Fastpass Facts, TPMVids, etc. There...

    Does Disney force high-profile guests/celebrities to use guides when they come to the parks?

    Wow thanks for that detailed response! Your videos are great by the way, I totally forgot about your episode about celebrity encounters in the parks!

    Does Disney force high-profile guests/celebrities to use guides when they come to the parks?

    He doesn't need them, but he said that he always gets one when he comes with his family. I guess he does it because he wants but I wasn't sure if it had anything to do with his deal with Disney. He offered to do recording for the theme parks for free on the condition that he could come to the...
