I know it's an unpopular opinion among many WDW fans but I think the monorail paint jobs are boring; they're all monorail/monotone white with a small stripe. Disneyland's fleet looks amazing. Monorail Red is actually (wait for it.....) red with white accents.

Mine as well. I'm not ready to live in the iRobot world just yet but I honestly don't believe that my great grandchildren will ever learn to drive a car. It's coming and will probably be normal in 10 years. WDW is a perfect place to test technology if they can control the roadways.

No, of course not. The numbers are like predicting the home run and batting title winners in MLB based on the games played last week; There are guys hitting over .600 currently. When the sample size becomes more significant, I think we will have to make a choice of the safest method of...

My thought on the self-driving car thing is this. This year, we have had one fatality caused by this technology. On average (using 2016 numbers from the USDOT), 3,121 fatalities occur on American roads. If it becomes a numbers game and humans kill 30,000+ per year while driverless kill 5,000+, I...

Very cool. I hope the kids get some time to play in the parks. DCI tour is tough and that would be some perfect down time for them.

Go right ahead. Coach Saban just signed an extension through 2024.

Take a victory lap; you just won the internet!

Every time I see Expedition: Everest, I think the same thing. That thing is the Lonely Mountain, change up the queue decorations, replace the two Yeti scenes with Smaug, and there you go. Bulldoze DinoLand and build Esgaroth with sight lines to the mountain and we have LOTR!

Of course I have. They did a great job with the lands you mentioned, Africa in particular. However, it's not an "I'm in the middle of a fictitious movie set; how in the _____ did they actually build this" feeling. You get that walking into Cars Land and Pandora looks to be able to deliver that...

Other than Main Street USA, I can't really think of a land at WDW that is completely immersive as Pandora appears to be. My wife and I went to DCA a couple of years ago; this looks to be Cars Land level immersion. It will be like walking into the movie (without the toxic atmosphere of course). I...

Some of the comments on here seem to assume what you addressed and they also act like Category 5 Hurricanes strike twice a week. Well stated.

I'll go ahead and be a voice of support for change/removal. We were at WDW a few weeks ago and sat through the Tiki room. My wife and I talked about it after it was over. Other than nostalgia, neither of us can think of a good reason to keep it. We thought it was a good place to cool off and the...

Is there any indication that they will do something with the final scene? A screen based Yeti or some type of hologram would be an improvement over disco.

We will be making our bi-annual spring break pilgrimage to WDW beginning on March 21. That's about 2 months out for Pandora being opened. Is it too early to hope for soft openings and testing? When they do begin to happen, report below with pictures and impressions!

Thanks for posting. One of the reasons we love VAKL Kidani Village so much is that the 1BR has 2 bathrooms. For our family, the shared bath doesn't work that well; 5 people and 1 bathroom makes a very tight morning and evening schedule. I was hoping we could stay at the VWL at some point in the...

I have no insider knowledge and am mainly asking a question. Joe Rohde has said that one day, he will fix the Yeti. It has always seemed logical that Everest would stay running until Pandora opened and then be fixed. With an opening date for a new land that will consume a lot of guests, what is...

We are getting close to our March spring break visit to WDW staying at our home resort (VAKL). I saw that Amazon is offering grocery delivery in the Orlando area. Has anyone used this and, if so, what were your impressions? We usually just hit Publix right off property but Amazon may be more...

We have 1 day, Wednesday and the Christmas party Thursday night. I hope he doesn't gum it up either. However, I understand the protection needed for such a high government official.

After seeing all of the super high quality digital projections with the castle shows and DL's new fireworks, why would this not be a good alternative? Project a very frightening Yeti in that scene and call it a day. It's cheaper than actually fixing the AA, it can be done after hours, it would...

It's very close to that. Maybe I should get in touch and build it for a highly inflate price. If they dropped $2 billion on MM+, they should be able to pay me $500,000 for a couple of days work....LOL.
