It was a park that aspired to be the best of what human ingenuity and our senses of beauty and grandeur had to offer. Then, once that became too cost prohibitive, Disney just said “Here, just throw in a bunch of random rides and kitschy junk everywhere.

The Grand Canyon Concourse at the Contemporary Resort, which used to be a peaceful and wonderful place to just wander around, has become one of the most crowded and trashy places in all WDW in with its current layout.

Yeah I agree a Hogwarts you could wander through at your own leisure with the individual elements more fleshed out would he amazing, but I guess Universal wasn’t willing to risk that kind of money on it at the time. It’s a pity. Of course I also with you could wander through Cinderella Castle.

That’s just crazy talk. Not only is Mission Space nowhere near as good as Horizons, but, given the hype and expectations that it had, it’s one of the worst rides ever. I’ve been on all kinds of thrill rides in parks across the nation and MS is the only one that ever made me feel panicked from...

But the beauty is you don’t HAVE to choose between Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley.

SpectroMagic was a far superior show to MSEP and it’s a huge stain on Disney that they just let it rot away and discarded it the way they did.

Number 1 couldn’t be more wrong and you should feel awful for saying it.

Just as long as you don’t have to use the bathroom I guess.

It was at night....After the sun had gone down. I have a feeling it’d be a little different in mid afternoon in July.

Yeah you’re right. The skyliner cars are amazing! They actually COOL you down in the middle of the Florida sun! Not only that they make you richer and younger! If they hit 88mph they can go back in time! Again, when you’re stuck in one for 3 hours on a 100 degree day, maybe with a screaming...

Yeah, remind me again how the attendance figures at WDW and DLR have been lately. I get it “Disney is holy and can do no wrong” Carry on.

Again you’re OUTDOORS! On the skyliner you’re in a glass/metal box that can actually get hotter than the outside. How is this simple fact escaping you?

Wow! That’s a great way to run a business.

It’s amusing h So what’s your point? That no transportation system is perfect so the Skyliner gets a free pass? The monorail issues are because Disney has refused to replace trains that are 30 years old. Any system will have problems if things aren’t updated/replaced with any regularity. The...

I guess I shouldn’t bother to point out the fact that the people were outdoors and weren’t going to get any hotter than what the temperature was. Or that they could probably leave the line to get a drink or use the bathroom if they wanted at almost any time and then get back in. Or that if...

That essentially sums it up. It blows my mind how badly this whole system was designed. From essentially day 1 Disney’s whole attitude towards who brought up the potential hazards of being trapped for hours in an un air conditioned car high off the ground in a state with scorching...

But the monorails have a diesel tractor that can tow them into the station....So there is a plan in place to get people off ASAP. As far as I can tell the evacuation plan for the skyliner is “Just hang in there and drink water until we get around to you.”

That is so ridiculous I don’t even know how to respond. And please stop with these stupid straw men....This is not space mountain or FOP. The only thing they have in common is people line up to ride them. Comparing them to the skyliner is like saying that birds and passenger jets are the same...

Why is it not the same? Because Disney says it isn’t? If the air flow is dependent on movement and the car isn’t moving......Then guess what? It’s heating up. Perhaps you’d be so brave to spend 3 hours in one on a 100 degree day to prove why it’s no big deal. Views always nice from the cheap...

Nice strawmen there. When people get stuck on Space Mountain, they’re in an air conditioned building where cast members can get to their cars and walk them off the ride. When the skyliner goes down people are hanging high off the ground in an un air conditioned glass and metal box possibly...
