That explains some of these dumb moves recently with the parks. He's trying to get fired

Another good tidbit from Unofficial Guide 2017.

The review of the Poly Bungalows....

In a nutshell, they raved about the inside.

Not so good was the price and the proximity to the MK Ferry - specifically the sounds a ferry is required by law to make whenever it comes and/or leaves the dock and the effect that has on the occupants of the bungalows.

Which was discussed right here on these forums before the bungalows were even built. Not surprising at all. Every time I've ridden the ferry boat, I've thought "that would really suck to listen to these boats until 2am".

THIS is exactly what's wrong with US corporate culture, An executive fired should get the SAME package a 'regular' employee would receive which is a couple of weeks pay and a perp walk out the door.

And puhleeze don't give me the 'They have a contract' line, That policy can be included as part of the boilerplate.

If Bob was fired today with no "Golden Parachute", he would still be richer than all the front line CMs at WDW and DLR combined.

Yes he would which makes his Golden Parachute even more revolting.

I was worried when I first heard... but honestly if done as describe it could be freaking so insane. Columbia transformed by projections, performers transforming.. Neat.

I misread that as "Transformers" doing some sick stuff.. lol

exactly, why he shouldnt have such dumb parachutes in case he gets fired or he tanks the company.
Noone should be encouraging mediocrity. Not saying that bob is mediocre... but lately a ton of CEOs have won fortunes by just breaking companies apart to sell assets, ruin the employees and lower investors.. and keep the high level investors rich.

I decided to share this video titled "Ned Landon Retirement" from the early 80's where we see some behind the scenes look at Horizons and some Disney imagineers goofing around. It's charming to look at.

I never rode Horizons, but that looks like a fun ride!

Now you can take home a photo of you with absolutely no sign of the ride itself, except the filthy front of the boat (and I can't figure out what's in the background- are those steps?)

Frozen Ever After has set sail into the wintery world of “Frozen“!

You can relive the magic of your adventure long after you’ve journeyed through Arendelle, as Disney PhotoPass Service offers an on-ride photo capture opportunity!

While you’re enjoying a boat tour through the kingdom of Arendelle during a special “Summer Snow Day” with Queen Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Kristoff and friends, our camera will capture a photo of you during an exciting moment of your journey.

I've always wanted a commemorative dirty boat pic!

Am I the only one who finds it strange that this pic features a boat full of adults?

They seem only mildly interested in what they are seeing.

Maybe they'll next take pics of you in the audience for Hall of Presidents or Carousel of Progress - show the folks back home you sound asleep....

Damn that's ugly, Perhaps a bit more intensity and focusing on the strobe so the background would fade to black one would think a creative company could figure these kinds of issues out...

Mildly Interested. That would be a very generous way of describing my sentiments following the train wreck that is Frozen Ever After.

Tokyo Disneyland just announced today yet another "renewal" of the Tokyo Disneyland Electrical Parade Dreamlights adding a Frozen float, the return of an enhanced Beauty and the Beast float and some additions/enhancements to the Cinderella unit.

This is for July 2017

I read its 5 new floats in total.

It's been a while since we discussed about Shanghai Disney. Anyway here's a video about the making of the resort.

They probably had just gone thru the "drink around the world until you barely can walk" routine to be able to stand the Frozen ride.

 

[BrerJon]

As awfully dull, uncreative and cash-grabby as the Frozen photos are, you can imagine parents with their little princess in an Elsa dress would snap it up in a heartbeat, so I think that's who it is for, not for the bored to tears adults.
