Thanks for the reply, I'll definitely check out the one in Fullerton. I prefer NYC style, but am happy to go for a good Neapolitan. My experience has been kind of like what Jon Stewart said that California pizza was like a focaccia with a salad on top.
Just found this article in Wired about how...
As for Pizza Port, it's California, so I expect bad pizza wherever I go.
What's unforgivable is the mushy and bland Mexican food at Rancho del Zocalo when I'm in Southern California. C'mon Disney, you can and should do Mexican better than that.
Yes, Penny Arcade is still there. At the front is a fortune telling machine, and directly behind it are six cail-o-scopes where you insert a penny for a short that plays automatically while you look through the viewfinder. In the back of the arcade are two mutoscopes, which for a penny you can...
Get ice cream at Gibson Girl and walk across the street to the Main Street Cinema to enjoy while watching classic Mickey toons.
Go in the Magic Shop, check out the Houdini paraphernalia and Steve Martin photo, chat with the counter magicians and ask them to perform a trick. There's one guy, I...
If Disney themes Pixar Pier as well as the Toyville Trolley Park at DisneySea then we're in for a treat.
Since the Marvel universe is diegetic to the parks, I prefer the Marvel attractions be set in the parks themselves, not be some kind of faux New York City. Stark Expo is in HKDL with the...
I, for one, will miss our bug overlords... and their capacity for keeping children and strollers in one small area of the park.
I'll also miss the chew-chew train. It's so odd that it's good.
And miss the Christmas decorations. Finding the four-leaf clover. The shade. The soundtrack. The...
Wow! Never ceases to amaze me how people on the Internet can never graciously admit being in error.
Almost all the words you list are not vulgar according to the dictionary. Go ahead and look them up.
Vulgar is coarse language and often refers to body parts. When a word is used in a...
Freaking does not equal the f-bomb. Freaking equals freaking. f-bomb equals f-bomb.
They are two separate words.
Yes, freaking's origin is from the f-bomb as a euphemism but it has become so dissipated from the f-bomb that freaking is listed as informal and slang in the dictionary. Pi$$ed is...
Yes, Rocket says "freaking," not the f-bomb. Same idea applied Furious: the character could say, "I'm angry," rather than "I'm pi$$sed" without loss of character authenticity. It's just a matter of keeping some class (from my perspective).
Great trip report, enjoyed reading through it, thanks!
While I wouldn't consider pi$$ed a curse word, it's tacky and coarse. 'Angry' and 'annoyed' could have been used instead.
I guess that's Universal keepin' it classy...
From the Disney Parks blog:
"Reitz, a U.S. Air Force veteran who works for the Veterans Affairs Healthcare System in Long Beach, California (on work days, he makes his visits in the evening), credits the parks with recharging him after a hard day."
I think Disney figures this guy is so far ahead with this "record" that nobody else will even attempt to catch him, so might as well make it a story for the blog.
Nostalgia is pretty much Disney's wheelhouse. It's like asking McDonald's to stop making burgers and fries.
If nostalgia isn't your thing, there's always Universal.
DLF was nice, but RDCT is as close to perfect as a fireworks show at DL can get.
