    News Guest dies, found unresponsive after riding Stardust Racers

    I think I was editing to include “unless something broke“ as you replied, as designed it looks safe, if the headrest or something else broke though a few headbangs could be lethal.

    News Guest dies, found unresponsive after riding Stardust Racers

    I had a similar thought, looking at the seat/restraints it seems even an unconscious rider shouldn’t be able to hit anything that’s not cushioned, assuming nothing broke… maybe a really tall person could hit the back of the seat in front of them?

    Len Testa - “Disney positions itself as the all-American vacation. The irony is that most Americans can’t afford it.”

    My brother and SIL are huge Viking fans and their raving about how much they love it convinced us to give it a shot, they are in their early 60s and said they are usually the “kids” on the ship, I’ll be 52 so I might be the ships toddler. I was surprised by the age range on our Princess...

    Len Testa - “Disney positions itself as the all-American vacation. The irony is that most Americans can’t afford it.”

    We just got back from a Princess Alaska cruise, my first non DCL cruise, and although I’d say it was inferior to a Disney cruise (less activities, etc) it was also about 40% cheaper, and that was with the premier plan that included all the extras like alcohol, wifi, photos, nicer restaurants...

    Non-Disney Races

    I’ve done it a couple times (the half) and it’s a really fun experience to run down the strip with all the lights around you and there’s lots of music and noise everywhere. Not a good race to set a PR but that’s not the point, it’s all about having fun. If you are looking for a fast race I...

    News New Haunted Mansion Grounds Expansion, Retail Shop Coming to Disneyland Resort in 2024

    The discussion about whether it would be easy and/or cheap to fix this is kind of irrelevant, it’s a gift shop in (arguably) the best theme park in the world ran by a company that makes tens of billions of dollars a year… the fact they built it on the cheap to save a couple bucks is pathetic...

    Marvel Studios’ Thunderbolts*

    My GF and I watched this on a flight the other day and really enjoyed it, arguably our favorite Marvel movie since endgame, we both had a similar thought… that it’s too bad it didn’t come out a couple years ago while the Marvel name was still a big draw, could have been a big hit had more people...

    General Star Wars News

    Is this real? I can’t remember the last time I saw a Star Wars trailer and got excited, I was really worried after how horrible season 3 of Mando was but this looks like it has potential to be good.

    News Disney’s Boy Trouble: Studio Seeks Original IP to Win Back Gen-Z Men Amid Marvel, Lucasfilm Struggles

    What you call nostalgia I’d call the heart of the story. Star Wars without Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Leia is just a space movie. It can still be great but it won’t “be” Star Wars. Indiana Jones without Indiana Jones is just another adventure movie, I love National Treasure but it’s not...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    This made me chuckle but also reminded me there’s photos of me disbounding Mickey Mouse on Dapper Day, wearing ears at the parks, wearing a full Pirate Costume on pirates night on a DCL cruise… as I normie Tron fan this is pretty funny, as an extreme Disney fan it just reminds me I’ve got...

    News Disney’s Boy Trouble: Studio Seeks Original IP to Win Back Gen-Z Men Amid Marvel, Lucasfilm Struggles

    Who here is secretly Sydney Watson? Basically repeated half the arguments here including a chart displayed earlier. 🤔 PS… if you are here your channel and sarcastic attitude crack me up.

    News Disney’s Boy Trouble: Studio Seeks Original IP to Win Back Gen-Z Men Amid Marvel, Lucasfilm Struggles

    I never said people (including myself) aren’t watching D+, ESPN, and Hulu… I said there’s very little that’s new to watch. I probably watch 40 hours of D+ every month, probably closer to 80 hours every month during hockey season, that doesn’t change the fact that maybe 2-3 hours of that is...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    My personal theory is Disney desperately wants to use Tron for the DL Tomorrowland redesign, they shoehorned it into MK but I think they have bigger plans for it at DL, they just need one of the movies to connect so they can justify it. That or someone (with pull) is simply a big fan and...

    News Disney’s Boy Trouble: Studio Seeks Original IP to Win Back Gen-Z Men Amid Marvel, Lucasfilm Struggles

    If it wasn’t for the NHL on ESPN+ I would have cancelled my D+ bundle months ago, 95% of my D+ viewing is old TV shows, old movies, and sports, without the NHL I could never justify $20 a month for the 1 or 2 decent shows they release every month between D+ and Hulu. They went from one...

    DCL Buys Unfinished Mega Cruise Ship - Genting Golden Dream ???

    Not a fan, I prefer the ocean liner design of the older ships, this looks like a generic mega ship with a Disney paint job, lipstick on a pig. From a business standpoint it makes a ton of sense but I can’t envision Disney ever designing a ship that looks like this from scratch.

    News Disney’s Boy Trouble: Studio Seeks Original IP to Win Back Gen-Z Men Amid Marvel, Lucasfilm Struggles

    Disney animation has historically had an unfortunate 10 year boom/bust cycle but the Disney company had kind of minimized that cycle with their other studios. Even though Disney animation was down in the 00s they were heavily associated with Pixar who was putting out hit after hit, at the same...

    News Disney’s Boy Trouble: Studio Seeks Original IP to Win Back Gen-Z Men Amid Marvel, Lucasfilm Struggles

    I think for something more adult, like Aliens, placing it under the Fox umbrella rather than the Disney umbrella would absolutely help at the box office, as you said they already do that with Marvel and Star Wars though, I’m not sure there’s anything Disney can do to distance their IPs from the...

    News Disney’s Boy Trouble: Studio Seeks Original IP to Win Back Gen-Z Men Amid Marvel, Lucasfilm Struggles

    I think the string of billion dollar Marvel movies and billion dollar (poorly reviewed) Star Wars movies under the Disney umbrella counters that argument. It’s only been the last couple years that the Disney name being attached to a movie has (potentially) harmed it rather than helping it...

    Cycling / biker shorts for men

    Under a pair of lose shorts no one will even notice, if that’s all he’s wearing and they’re “revealing” he may not make it past security, not sure I’d risk it, depending on the guard he may be waved through or told to go back to the hotel to change.
