I just got back from spending three days including New Year's eve in WDW. I'll be the first one to admit that I don't like the Genie+ or any idea that makes you pay over the ticket price to ensure you get to "ride" what you already paid for. Although the app makes things more available I find it...

Under my dream plan, the park would not be in Florida but in Texas. Between both coasts and to serve alleviate crowds on the other resorts. I know Disney has done some research into Texas and decided not to build a third resort in the states but I definitely think they are overlooking at what...

DME was a contract with Myers Coach line so it had a cost associated with it but not as much as if Disney themselves owned the fleet. Prices for any of the Disney resorts have been escalating every year at any rate. If I were them however, I would still offer the service for an additional cost...

The best food in the Magic Kingdom by far is the Cinderella's Royal Table but it will set you back a pretty penny. The buffet at the Crystal Palace is my second choice but again, it's not cheap per se. After that it's pretty slim pickings. Jungle Navigation Skipper Canteen would be my third...

Here are my two cents. after Epcot, every park Disney has opened in America lacked many things from the inception and many had flawed concepts driven by marketing decisions instead of being rooted in better ideas. For example, the California Adventure was created to increase visits by...

Mr. Toad's Wild Ride was the first ride I ever experienced in Disney World, 20,000 was the second. Last time I was in Disneyland we rode Mr. toad's as they still have it there. Horizons was one I didn't understand as to why they closed it altogether in what seems to be instant. If you make it to...

A lot of story development usually goes into these type of changes but when it comes to the execution of it, it usually doesn't deliver quite as well. I suspect this jungle Cruise transformation means mostly a new script for the new premise (but keeping some of the expected jokes), change the...

I do not disagree with your assessment but it may be more than the parks thing. I have been going to Disney World and Disneyland since 1976. I honeymooned twice there and subsequently I have been there with my own kids many times. We spent the millennium celebrations in the Magic Kingdom. For...

EPCOT: Monsieur Paul, by far the best restaurant in all of the parks. Chef de France and Le Cellier both good and specially if you like meat. Tutto Italia, great pastas. Magic Kingdom: Crystal Palace, The Liberty Tree Tavern, Be Our Guest, (none nearly as good as the restaurants in Epcot but the...

It seems that the subject keep propping up and some fans seem tired of it. I don't necessarily disagree with the statement that WDW is loosing some of its magic. I first visited WDW in 1976, just a few years after it opened. Two honeymoons spent there, a yearly trip to the resort since 1999...

I always considered myself a big Disney fan. Like many here I spent my childhood watching Disney films. My first visit to a Disney Park was to WDW in 1976. My family and I spent 10 days in the Contemporary Resort. The impression that the trip left on me has lasted me to this day. Since then, I...

Test Track - it was tricky having to exit the car in such a high steep grade. Haunted Mansion - Right in the middle of the graveyard scene. Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. In all the circumstances there were cast members there to help us out of the vehicle and walk us through the exit.
