I'm thinking similarly. Maybe they think that the festivals don't draw more people in the summer than would already be coming to WDW -- in other words, they're going to be busy no matter what. So they're trying to figure out if a summer festival actually increases F&B spend enough to justify...

As a temporary overlay to these attractions, I'm in!

This almost certainly means there is something significant that is unexpectedly good. Something the Company thinks will be a positive surprise for the analysts. And it almost certainly has to do with quarterly results, and not a transaction or other event, because if they knew about a positive...

Thank you for this. I had been wondering (not actively, but in the back of my mind, as it wasn't all that important for me personally), how the third-party verification works given that I had thought that requiring proof of disability wasn't allowed. This helps me follow.

I understand why this is being done, but it is unfortunate. Those who really need it will have to go through extra burden because of the abusers. My older son is mildly autistic. He has learned to deal with it and you’d never know it now. But when younger, he’d have infrequent melt-downs...

Disappointing but not surprising. I enjoyed the free shootin' gallery the past few years, but figured it was on its last legs and there wasn't much that could fit there -- small lounge for the DVC folks (not me) is fine. Except that I cannot imagine that there was no place that could have...

I love the Jammitors, but disliked the well-loved World Showcase Players (back when they played). But that's kind of the point, really. Epcot used to (and maybe is moving to) have lots of varying live entertainment offerings. Something for everybody. And it caused me (in my younger days) to...

That show did give me a headache due to the whistle.

The temporary show from the 2016 holidays was a nice treat at DS. I'm glad for another one.

Sadly, it has gone the way of many updates announced for Epcot. New China movie, attraction in UK, Spaceship Earth changes, and of course the festival center.

Could also be for Hispanic Heritage Month, which is, I think, mid-September to mid-October.

There is a possible answer for this in Japan. At Tokyo Disney, the monorail carries a fee and the railroad goes roundtrip with no opportunity to get off elsewhere. This is because, I understand, of a Japanese law requiring that trains with more than one stop (that therefore operate as...

We are indeed lucky. My parents got one of these when they were first introduced. My father has since passed away, but my mother (now 83) still joins us on all of our trips to WDW, and she always sheds a tear and cracks a smile when we visit the tile. Here's hoping you do somehow get a...

I still enjoy Indy, but I agree with you on Bourne. I've seen it a half dozen times in the past year and it's still great. Even the one time there was a technical problem, it was great. They basically turned it into a "making of" moment and showed how the effects were done while they were...

I was thinking the same thing, but dared not say it. Let's hope this is not a goal to cut costs by replacing humans with cardboard cutouts and special effects. I don't think that will be the case, but I wonder, just a little...

Lettuce Entertain You (the company behind Summer House) has put these kind of sweets counters in at several of their restaurants around Chicago (and I'm sure other cities). I've tried a few of their offerings and they are very good, and probably with a shorter line than Gideon's. At least in...

The look and the menu (including prices) are very similar to the location in Chicago. This adds to the list of Disney Springs restaurants that also have a Chicago location (Jaleo, Art Smith, Frontera, Boathouse [Gibson's], STK). I liked the atmosphere and food at Summer House in Chicago --...

Nice touch. In fact, something along those lines would make a good semi-permanent addition.

I agree with this assessment. While the Indy movies have not focused on animals, there is no reason Indy can’t have an adventure that features animals. And that‘s a fine way to integrate the IP. In fact, it creates the possibility for an entirely new story that uses the IP to add to the story...

Last year‘s Run DMC performance with the Black Eyed Peas was great. I agree that the Hough’s as hosts leave much to be desired.
