very uninspiring. Seems like a rush job. The set is technically interesting and well done but the show doesn't seem coherent. Cruella seems more like a drag queen than a self-absorbed diva. Better than another abandon theater.
Its a shame it doesn't have a story to go with it. It is a great fountain, don't get me wrong, but the "show" doesn't have any impact. There are what, about 14 oarsman type fountain heads and the rest are pretty much static nozzles? The music is just kind of generic sort of space themed I...
No, that would cost money. I'm sure if enough people complain they'll trot out a story about the technology being completely outdated and impossible to repair. Yes, I am still grousing about the winter arches at EPCOT so many years ago.
There will be lots of discussion on how Epic isn't hurting attendance. They'll brag about finally getting rid of Frontierland and all of the 'problematic' imagery associated with the American frontier west. There will be some fuss about creating another DVC hotel that looks surprisingly...
Unless they figure out a way to reuse the ride system (which is getting a bit long in the tooth) the demo of this attraction is going to be pretty expensive. There are pictures of the original attraction being built (missions to mars I think) and they dug some pretty substantial pits beneath...
It's a shame Disney "Spectaculars" are now just movie and sound clips from their sundry IP hacked together as a demo reel. No real story (contrived one big happy world stuff not withstanding), very unoriginal music, and nothing to inspire. I guess its just an attempt to sell more of their off...
I had forgotten about this show. You have to admit that Disney sure got their money's worth out of those fountain barges. I am normally not a nostalgic person at all, time only flows in one direction, but I do miss the days when Epcot's shows were stories in and of themselves told using...
I agree the castle has to go. It is "problematic" to the modern audience. People who don't live in castles might be offended. It's also cultural appropriation since it is largely a knock off of Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany so as someone with a small bit of German ancestry I am outraged...
I've kept quite to see what it ended up looking like before I made comments and while I agree that it is no ugly in and of itself it also has no theming or character to match Poly. If you go out to the Kirkland Commons area of Scottsdale Az (suburb of Phoenix) you can find several buildings of...
It was a good attraction, it was unique and a tiny bit educational. I was/am sad that it no longer exist. If it still existed today they would have no doubt have had to make some significant upgrades to accommodate the typical "body geometry" of today's guest, when I was in my teens and...
You're referring to Amazon's "AI" system that watched what you picked up and optionally put down and just charged you for what you kept? The AI that turned out to be several hundred workers in India just watching video screens for 14 hours at a time? Not kidding - I follow AI and it was one of...
Yes there is enough clearance, to design otherwise would be to create a major safety hazard to a guests that might slip by and the safety design review, especially when this ride was designed, would never let that egregious a mistake go through.
there quality is significantly down on all but the highest end clothing, in my experience anyway. They have also done away with a great deal of selection, it is all just generic stuff you can find anywhere. Used to be only at parks, and the specific park you were physically at. Then is was...
There certainly is financial reason to replace the existing monorails. As equipment ages it becomes less and less reliable and maintenance costs go up. As the monorails get older inspections have to become more frequent. That is part of the reason. Here is a bigger reason that many may not...
This issue has nothing to do with politics. The Tax assessor want to get as much as he can, and Disney wants to pay as little as they can. This is at least the 4th time they've had this fight in the last 20 years and it probably went on before that. Universal had the same fight, several...
I am genuinely curious. Yes it is amusing that for years the left has been trying to get rid of RCID and the right has been protecting it and now they have flipped sides but apart from both sides trying to claim some undiscernible high ground I have a simple question? Why should Disney operate...
