    Perhaps naming one big entertainment option Better Together and the other one Together Forever wasn't the best idea.

    That, and they can also promote their relaunched Pixar hotel in the process. It is arguably an organic reason to bring PF back by modern Disney standards if viewed from that lens.

    That's the exact same CrazyShake I tried! I had heard positive things about the cake shake, but it just didn't work as well as I wanted it to. I did indeed catch Black Tap at the Venetian. It was a nice experience, just wish I had liked what I ordered a bit more. Not going to lie, I did go to...

    Remember when Toy Story: the Musical was rumored to take the place of Aladdin at Hyperion? Given there's currently a vacancy at the theater, and there's no such thing as too much Toy Story to today's execs, I wonder if that's the surprise being alluded to. Or it'll just end up being a 4town...

    Probably not a hotel constraint, as one would think it suits their purposes to build more hotels, and/or have more hotels in the vicinity that they could at least get a cut of the profits from if they were to buy the complex. Just makes me wonder what the deal is and if the reason it wasn't...

    Is that really the last time it got sold? I guess I had pictured it happening more recently. That's quite a price for such a nothingburger of a complex. It's mindboggling that the much-smaller Disney of the 80s literally bought the Wrather Corporation to get control of the Disneyland Hotel...

    I'm expecting something dumb until proven otherwise.

    New Tomorrowland. Is this the year it finally gets announced?

    Isn't all of the Starcade's 2nd floor now Space Mountain queue? Or is there additional space left over? Honestly, if they need to utilize a new loading area for a Peoplemover 2.0, perhaps the old Carousel theater is the most obvious location. Plenty of queue space on the first floor, then load...

    Given that Tarzan's Treehouse is clearly visible in the background, this is clearly not a picture from anytime super recently. Nor have the current restrictions really made the meaningful difference in capacity Disney has claimed they have. The reservation policies are guest-unfriendly and so...

    WDW dropped reservations for everyone except keyholders in January I believe, AND also dropped parkhopping restrictions. No reason why they couldn't/shouldn't do the same thing in CA.

    HKDL gets new castle, frozen land and marvel land.

    I'm sure there were plenty of valid reasons for nuking the HK Autopia, but it really was a very nice version of the ride. And yes, I know that lines are a reflection of capacity as well as popularity, but I do think it's worth pointing out that during my first visit in 2010, Autopia was by far...

    Different people will say different things, but here were my experiences with various locations: 1. Tortilla Jo's-Because Mexican food is always a safe option with my mother, who can be picky, and it was 2015. We thought it was fine, but it was 2015 and we didn't know any better. Never felt a...

    I'm choosing to be optimistic. Perhaps that will prove foolish, but in my view, it would be difficult for the new offering to be worse than Tortilla Jo's.

    At the very least, it has to be better quality than Tortilla Jo's, right? I can't fault them for overhauling DTD's restaurant lineup, potential aesthetic weirdness aide. Hoping for the best.

    They're "launching" a Pixar Hotel now. ;)

    I remember having a nice portion of ribs there relatively early on. But ultimately it seems they decided they could rake in money with KaCheeseburgers and other mediocrity vs. what used to be. Every once in awhile I'm tempted to try their fried chicken before I remember that I've never heard...

    All they need to do with Flo's is bring back the original menu IMO. That said, they'd make a killing if they put an In-n-Out right where La Brea used to be.

    Just watched the video of TF 2.0. Seems mostly the same, except they actually removed a Cars segment(!) and added in newer characters. Turning Red in particular is very present in the newer show. A few minor tweaks. It seemed slightly better, but looks as though it would still be my worst DL...

    Another silly, petty reason I'm feeling personally victimized by Pixar Fest? It begins on April 26th. My birthday. I can't think of a worst birthday gift I've ever received than having my favorite theme park ruined in the name of a particularly terrible example of brand/IP shilling.

    There's probably some truth to that, but there keep being rumblings of using the TSL plot for additional shopping and dining areas too. And if that's the case, it would honestly make more sense to just buy GardenWalk and make that the DTD East equivalent, while then fully committing to using...
