    DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I was mostly speaking on the most vocal purists on this site. That vocal minority has an outsized voice compared to the silent majority. Many vloggers fall into that category as well.

    News Bruce Vaughn Returns to Disney as Co-Lead of Walt Disney Imagineering

    This is such a woeful misunderstanding of what people have been saying to push back against your assertion that the current imagineers are essentially talentless hacks who couldn't hold the jock of the people who came before them. There are very few people in the entirety of human history...

    DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Apparently if people saw the Monsters Inc movie, thought “wow this door segment is exciting it would make for a great ride”, and now get excited about said ride it means you were a child and still dont properly understand themes. Also the only proper Disney ride is a slow dark ride. Wanting...

    DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    Disney isn’t going to build a multi million dollar attraction like this and then put a massive phobia barrier in there with the caveat “if you are afraid it’s your or your parents fault”. The fact is if you made the only way to enter this queue a path that goes by a large number of snakes you...

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    Your facts don’t relate to the point you are trying to make. 1st point. You are attempting to use box office numbers to measure IP popularity. The Good Dinosaur had a higher box office than Encanto and Cars. Nothing more to be said here. 2nd point. You are trying to say Coco is more...

    EPCOT Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    Because WDI never had dud rides, even in its heyday right?

    DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    I’ve seen so many convoluted answers on how any given attraction does and does not fit a theme. The common denominator is that if people like what’s there then an associated theme is accepted, if people don’t like what’s there then all of a sudden it’s theme doesn’t fit either. If the Indy...

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    The budget and “program requirement” dictates the design! “Biggest budgets in the industry” means nothing on its own. 7DMT was not originally designed for what we have now. It went through a series of cuts before they landed on the current ride. Whose idea was it to build a Star Wars area set...

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    Cars merchandise always picks up when it’s back to school time. That’s when kids get new everything, and contrary to the opinion in this thread, Cars is still a popular IP.

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    I hate that people place the blame of current Disney disappointments on the engineers. They are doing what is asked of them and budgeted for. If management doesn’t want something it doesn’t matter what level of talent is underneath them. But it’s always easier to blame the workers I guess.

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    The food at MK better than Epcot? No way.

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    I know it’s already been said but I think if they had better food the dining capacity would definitely be an issue. I’ve never had an issue getting a table in Cosmic Rays, then again I don’t like Cosmic Rays and only eat there because they have food my kids like and it’s easy. Just seems like...

    EPCOT Test Track to be reimagined

    I strongly agree with this. The reason you can still explore back there and find things you never saw on a previous trip is because there really isn’t anything new or exciting being built in some of those pavilions. So it’s ignored by the masses. The second you put something new or trendy back...

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    I’m very interested to see and hear about the actual impact of removing this river by people other than highly influential bloggers and locals, in other words the common guests. From my observations the river in the MK wasn’t really appreciated as much as it is at other parks. Pretty much any...

    MK All-New Nighttime Parade Disney Starlight Set to Debut at Magic Kingdom in 2025

    I wish more people understood this. I work with commercial builds quite often. When a build is complete, a month later you can have something seemingly small like a sprinkler leak occur. You would think a sprinkler leak could be repaired by in house maintenance. But if in house maintenance...

    MK Villains Land Announced for Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom

    Disneyland isn’t built on a swamp. Disney World can expand out, but going down would introduce too many issues to make it worth it.

    MK All-New Nighttime Parade Disney Starlight Set to Debut at Magic Kingdom in 2025

    Exactly what is the issue you are referring to? There are any number of companies capable of building to spec. If the spec says the lights need to remain blue for a certain amount of time, and they build that, it’s not the builders fault that the guests are disappointed because they want more...

    News Destination D23 2025

    This is correct. I have a couple F&W shirts that have figment on them. I would have purchased the shirt even if it didn’t have Figment.

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    The more and more I read the hyper negative feedback on this closure and see who it’s coming from the more I’m convinced the majority of the angst is driven by locals. To them the MK is just their local Disneyland. The further it gets from being their Disneyland the more uncomfortable they...
