    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    Well, it's new. Of course it has heavy traffic. Also, it's a long ride, so people like it for that.

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    I missed this before; sorry I'm so tardy in commenting. I totally agree, and that's probably why I haven't been to WDW in 4 years. We used to go every year...

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    Definitely agree. Epcot hasn't been the same since the '98-99 move away from "edutainment." Out with Imagination, World of Motion, & Horizons. It's been searching for its purpose since then, and is still floundering. Hollywood Studios is the same; out with the Animators, street performers...

    EPCOT The Seas pavilion new color scheme

    I don't live in Atlanta anymore, but I've been to the GA at least 4 times, and the aquariums in Baltimore and Chattanooga several times as well. They're all much better than the Seas as it is utilized today. We skip it most of the time.

    EPCOT The Seas pavilion new color scheme

    Yeah - except they've abandoned all of that pretext and design. They need to demo and start over.

    EPCOT The Seas pavilion new color scheme

    They need to demo the whole building. It's a joke now; thanks to places like the Georgia Aquarium.

    Chef Albert Youngman leaves WDW for Universal.

    Since everyone says the food at Epcot has gotten so bad, this is a good thing right? ;)

    News Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Permanently Closed Fall 2023

    Nope. It was Abrams' plan for Rey to meet Luke at the end of TFA amid a display of force power from Luke - but Clueless "Rian" had him look all sour instead so that he could totally screw the whole series in the next installment. Don't get me wrong, TFA wasn't a good movie - but KK and RJ are...

    Excellent! These sort of touches make me actually want to come back. It's been quite a while now...

    Darth Vader and gang not on Star Wars Hotel killed idea long ago.

    Yeah the strange part to me is - why do you spend Four Billion Dollars to buy something, and then not use the heart of it? Hubris, I guess, to think you can improve on a classic...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    You're right of course. But all this over-analysis is bewildering to me. We'll never know if it could have succeeded, because it was *doomed from the start* because of its price tag. Doomed because of two reasons: 1) *Their natural audience could not afford it.* When I first heard about the...

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    That's true. Black and white. TWDC is barely in the black, not doing well because of the D+ investment and ESPN's reduction in profits (and other things, but that's 1 & 2). Because of this, they can't go and spend billions (more) on theme parks. D+ might eventually look like a wise...

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    This unfortunately is incorrect. The multibillion dollar conglomerate has to show a profit too; otherwise it'll be gobbled up by a bigger conglomerate that *will* show a profit.

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    ...and someone said above that villains work because they counter the "good guy." So, Villains Land would need the "bad guy" to be sort of the protagonist; to look at the story from the other side. ...and I've had plenty enough of that already in everyday life. There's still a place for...

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    AGREE. Other than maintenance, they should forget about the MK for ten years or so. EPCOT & AK needs their attention desperately, then the Studios. Heck, I'd rather they do some work on the water parks before they spend another dime on the MK.

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    Yeah, and that's why I think people's desire to have them move faster is ill-founded. There's plenty of "new" at WDW. There's no need to rush more in *right now.* I want them to take their time and do it right... as I haven't heard a good idea for the expansion yet.
