    The new park commercials

    Not sure why everyone is up in arms about this ad, it's better than the "what is a walt disney world thrill feel like" ads that were everywhere for months.

    DHS Disney Confirms Muppets Take Over Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at Hollywood Studios

    Not happy with this move, I have a ton of nostalgia of going there when I was little (for HS, it's MV3D, the Playhouse Disney Show and the Honey I shrunk the audience playground), to the point where it's gone, I will probably not renew my AP as there's going to be nothing to do at Disney...

    Rumor Are the Simpsons moving from USF to DHS?

    To be honest, this is one of those cases where I would want something more new. The Simpsons is something that's not been relevant in a while and the recent seasons haven't been good, despite what some video essays try to convince you (mostly talking about the SuperEyepatchWolf one which...

    Disney Treasure, DCL’s 6th ship, debuts in 2024

    Really impressed with the Haunted Mansion bar, the Star Wars one barely made an effort to be one as if you removed the viewport, it wouldn't really be one. They went above and beyond with this one.

    MK Frontierland Shootin' arcade to close and replaced with DVC Member lounge

    Surprised they put a smidge of effort into this, I was expecting something along the lines of the new Fort Wilderness cabins, so at least an attempt to match the theming was a surprise. Though the bar is low at this point.

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Epcot felt extremely busy this weekend, I have never seen it this packed ever, especially in WS. Other parks seemed around normal though.

    News Walt Disney World and other major Disney accounts stop posting on social media platform X

    Gross, but expected. I know this goes into the no politics rule, but Elon is trigger happy with lawsuits with people that oppose him, as we saw with him suing people that stopped advertising on twitter (I will never call it X). People have begun moving off using it, but not enough to ignore it...

    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    Yeah I do agree with Walden's creative chops are the best out of the candidates so far as her division is the most competent creatively in Disney at the moment. And a lot of said shows are really big hits for Disney, so out of the internal canidates she's the best. D'Amaro has presentation chops...

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass

    Oh screw this, it's limited now, but it's a matter of time before this is forced on the average guest. This is insanely greedy and the prices are absurd.

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Yeah, the only places that felt premium in the video was that the restaurants had seemingly healthier choices than other Universal stuff and the rooftop bar (the latter being the only place that had theming), the pool looked unimpressive, the theming looked like current disney (or if you want a...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Helios looks bland as hell, save for the rooftop bar. If Disney put out something like this, they would be thrashed online as it feels like their current hotel output.

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    Losing TSI sucks, still feel Cars is a bad fit for MK (doesn't feel old school or fantastical enough) and losing the ROA as a whole is a huge blow.

    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    Going to shoot my shot now, after D23, it feels more and more obvious that D'Amaro is getting the CEO role when Iger leaves. The presentation felt like a dry run to see how he was received by a larger audience and he's been doing a lot of big publicity things for the mouse.

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    Wasn't expecting IO2 to be as big as of a hit as it is, felt like it would underperform, Deadpool and Wolverine doing well isn't surprising though (only other film this year that had this sure bet of a performance is DM4). Something I have learned from following WBD is that investors...

    Marvel Studios' Avengers: Doomsday

    RDJ as doom feels like a bad idea, I am not a fan of probably having yet another villain becoming another "Tony Stark made fun of me, I must be evil now" character. Sadly, I know that it won't matter as it will make another billion+ at the box office.

    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    I remember during the last investor's meeting there were a lot of questions in regards to how the $60 billion in upcoming parks spending wasn't happening, but you are right, the average wall street investor hates when businesses spend money. The film side of Disney is the creative wing they kind...

    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    Getting the NBA rights is good, it pays for itself (even though ESPN's NBA presentation is awful), losing the rights would cost Disney billions in revenue. It would be a big red flag if they didn't get the rights, as Zaslav failed to get it for WB Discovery and he's being dragged through the...

    General Magic Kingdom News and Updates

    The spice thing is cool, using the shops for things that are not ride/Disney merch is something that hasn't been done that much since the early 2000s. Saw some pics that there were some other cooking things not related to the ride (notably cookbooks) were also being sold in the shop, which is...

    Rumor D23 2024 WDW Rumors, Predictions & Discussion

    I doubt that Everest is getting redone as it would be pricey, it's being actively used in advertising for AK (billboards on the highways, web advertising, the digital billboard that's near I4) and it's very popular with guests. Having it down as well as Dinosaur at the same time would be a...
