    News 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    Tragic. Mourning it is! I knew from skimming they wouldn't be re-using any of the AAs but missed the "no dinosaurs at all" bit. Well, thanks for the heads up. I know some people might find it laughable but this stuff's hitting me Maelstrom, Great Movie Ride and Splash Mountain hit people. I...

    News 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    I just wanna know if Indiana Jones is going to have any dinosaurs in it, sort of a "Lost World" situation, or time travel via temple magic. Need to know if my inevitable "say goodbye to Dinosaur" trip is going to be a celebration of its life or a mourning, lol. Still think if no dinosaurs are...

    Possibility of doing daytime USO during Horror Nights?

    Hey all, I was browsing operating hours and noticed that USO was closing earlier than it normally does, and earlier than even Islands of Adventure next door. I wondered why, until I realized - oh yeah, Halloween Horror Nights. So I got to wondering again - is it feasible to do Universal...

    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    I see. It always came across to me that the tradeoff was they could build or do whatever they wanted (within Florida law) in RCID in exchange for having to pay for the water treatment and other such upkeep of infrastructure. And obviously yeah they still have to file permits but the thing is...

    Universal's Great Movie Escape [Rooms] - Fall 2022

    Ooh, I wonder how early in the fall it'll be open. I'd love to try either! Really good idea for a CityWalk concept, give people more to do there than eat.

    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    There's just something... I don't know, unsettling about a corporation being able to essentially have a huge level of control for an area the size of a city, and sort of subtly manipulate the voters by only letting people who agree to vote the way they want them to live there. But I'm just...

    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    It's hard because it's true Disney, or any corporation, shouldn't have this much power. I absolutely agree and think so. But the right thing can be being done for the wrong reason and, in the process, do more harm than good - both immediate, and as precedent. Disney should not be losing this...

    Disney at night

    If I had a choice of going to the parks during the day or night, for 3 of the 4, it would be night, no question. Part of AK's draw is the animals and it's kind of hard to see animals on the trails in the dark unless you blare spotlights at them all night, which wouldn't be fair to them. Even the...

    What Happens to WDW / Disney Parks during a massive correction / recession?

    Ooh, ah, certainly some, ah, interesting opinions being discussed in this thread... From my memory having been to the parks during two of these recessions, while the parks were less staffed during these recessions... there were just a lot less people too. Especially outside of the summer. I'm...

    Disney World with an older family member

    I would heavily suggest renting an ECV - if you're staying on-site, you can rent one from a local rental place, which will drop it off at the resort your check-in day or the day after you book the rental, and pick it back up when you check out. I'm sure they'd do it for off-site hotels as well...

    News Splash Mountain retheme to Princess and the Frog - Tiana's Bayou Adventure

    Both GMR and EEA closed within months of their replacements' announcements. It's been almost 2 years since the retheme was announced. The animatronics are in, evidently, a bad state. Are they waiting for the Tron coaster to open so that there's not a lot of lost capacity? That's all I got.

    They need to Eliminate Genie Plus and Lightning Lane

    Oh, not literally, of course! Just meant in the sense of "free/cheap to get in, every attraction costs money".

    They need to Eliminate Genie Plus and Lightning Lane

    The issue with standby is that, well, standby-only causes severe congestion with an "entry gets you unlimited rides, if you want to wait" style of payment. If you want standby-only, you'd need to bring back ticket books. Otherwise, I'd advocate that the way Fastpasses used to work prior to FP+...

    No big upcoming attractions after TRON?

    RE: Avatar - Everyone said Avatar looked silly. A billion dollars later, we had people who wanted to hurt themselves because of the depressing reality to them that Pandora wasn't real and they'd never get to visit there. It lacked cultural staying power, but as an experience, it was powerful. It...

    New Attraction and Country at Epcot World Showcase

    Oh well, dang! I didn't know that was there. Thank you for correcting me. I was going off of what I had read, I wasn't aware. And.... yeah, you're right about that.

    New Attraction and Country at Epcot World Showcase

    My desire would be to use the space between Morocco and Japan for an attraction for Japan. There's even space for a queue in the existing Japan pavilion, so the space itself could all be a big ride. The question is of course - what could it be? Disney actually completely lacks IPs with strong...

    Proposed bill targeting Disney's copyrights would shorten copyright duration to 56 years

    Yeah, I knew it was vindictive nonsense, but reading over the text now (I didn't last night because I thought the article covered it), it is completely unconstitutional. Now, technically congress isn't bound by those international agreements (though that would lead to consequences for the US for...

    new Roger Rabbit live action/animated hybrid TV series for Disney+

    I don't know how you do a live-action sequel/spinoff of Roger Rabbit without Hoskins, to be honest. An animated series based on the 'Maroon Cartoon canon' might be fun though.

    SPOILERS: Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness

    Saw this a few days ago. Probably one of my favorite Marvel movies along with the Guardians films, Shang-Chi and Thor Ragnarok. I know a lot had criticism's of Wanda's character arc in regards to the franchise as a whole, but in the movie I felt she was one of the more sympathetic villains in...

    Proposed bill targeting Disney's copyrights would shorten copyright duration to 56 years

    Well, isn't this a mixed bag? Fixing copyright law is important, but doing it as a clapback to a company exercising their First Amendment rights is... frankly, a very silly thing to do. It feels like political theater, especially since every other company is also going to be against this, not...
