This is exactly why he changed the avatar. To mock Disney and their ridiculous knee jerk reaction to eliminate any form of alligators from the parks and resorts.

Nothing wrong with a person becoming a Marvel/Disney fan via the MCU. The problem is that many of them want Marvel attractions NOW! and they could care less about layered theme and storytelling in a theme park, which is the very fabric of what made WDW/DL such amazing places. They are brand addicts, not fans of the parks and resorts and they only care about when they will get their next fix and it comes at the expense of what was once a much more diverse and fluid experience.

I agree. I love Marvel and would love to see them in the parks, but give them their own gate. There are way too many people who fail to understand that the reason Disney feels the way it does is because of very careful planning.

and why so many of us mourn the loss of that feeling because of recent lack of it

Disney isn't going to build any new theme parks in the US anytime in the near future. They purchased Marvel 10 years ago and have made 7 billion box office in the US alone. It's time for some quality attractions and they've had the time to plan for it.

You might be right...however, if WDW and Disneyland get so full that they have to initiate phased closings on the regular, there's no way they're going to let $$ walk off the table, and their marketing seems to indicate that they wouldn't be upset if that happened.

I don't think the gator farm has ever returned to living with the land now that I think about it.

It was always kind of an odd inclusion to begin with. I really wish I knew how much of the science on display in that ride was nonsense.

Do the “behind the seeds tour” and find out! It is a great value, and worth it, if your next trip you are looking for that added experience...

I mean, I'm curious, but I ain't $25 curious, and just because they say something on the tour doesn't make it factual.

Got a thread for that starting here...
The Integration of Fox into the Disney Corporate Family: Parks, Movies, IPs, Studios
I cant help but wonder if Comcast had got Fox would there be such a focus on the layoffs in the press or is it because everyone likes to make Disney look like the big old bad guy? It would have been a story either way because it changing the entire landscape of Hollywood. The next round of...

I remember the days when TWDC was elated to have a sing!e film hit 100 million at the box office.
And not that long ago either. Early 2000s. I'm pretty sure none of the spirit's false narratives on these boards still carry any weight at all. Into the ether.

I keep telling myself "next visit" Now that I havent been to the parks in a few years and i am more or less done with them, we are actually contemplating becoming floridians. When we do I can guarantee I will be getting the epcot after 4 pass. The behind the seeds tour will happen.

Wondering out loud here...
The prices of the parks are ever increasing...
So average folk (like me (teachers salary, no complaining, LOVE what I get to do everyday)) can not afford to go very often any more, but still would like to be able to visit the parks from time to time.
After carefull (or not so) consideration, theyt make the decision to move to Orlando and find employent, get an annual pass, and end up overcrowding WDW parks, and raise the cost of living to California levels from that angle...

His post may have been an April Fool's joke, but the post he is referring to isn't. This guy has been posting this "rumor" as well as other outrageous rumors on a number of sites...
