A Spirited Valentine ...

A clone of a clone was your primary reason for traveling to France?

There's not much else to do in France, I guess...

Am I the only one that thinks buzz and laugh floor should be shut for tomorrowland revamp? Toy story will have plenty of representation now and if they want they should move laugh floor over to one of the theaters in DHS.

I agree completely... Laugh Floor should move to the Studios and open that space up for something that is on theme with Tomorrowland... I know years ago they tal;ked about an indoor flying saucer type attraction...Which would be very cool...as long as they don't use the "air Hockey" system and do it maybe more like the new Luigi' s ride at DCA... then it could be indoors with an outer space theme... Lots of eye candy, and would be something original...

Mickey and the Magician, Crush's Coaster, and Ratatouille would like to have a few words with you.

Don't care for the latter two. The first one I am open to but am not sure it would be worth the price of admission.

can't think of any other reason for going there ...

 

[Dr.GrantSeeker]

For me Tower was the primary reason.

I must say that for me it was Crush's Coaster

This makes me sad where the omnimover has the same wait time as Peter Pan and these others

Is it spring break in Orlando?

So pricing came out for Universal's "Water Theme Park" yesterday. $67 a day, in line with pricing for Disney's Water Parks. They can use any kind of nomenclature they want. They don't believe it's a true theme park and they are pricing it as such.

Saw that coming.

Great to see DLP getting money I do feel bad for WDSP that park is bad though imo still may have as good if not a better attraction lineup than current DHS if you take out GMR. Hopefully they get brand new marvel attractions not just a tot reskin. Bringing the frozen e ticket rumored for Tokyo and DL would be nice for them. I know tsmm has been rumored for a good 5 years or so but hopefully now it gets built

Hypothetical (and it won't happen): What if Disney started a hotel price war with UNI to kill or lessen their room expansion ambitions?

 

[clemmo]

Speaking of international Disney parks anyone know when the fantasyland expansion in Tokyo is scheduled to open and what ever happened to the frozen plans?

Title is a bit misleading as the article is about how Disney is trying to keep the bundled cable model vs the cord cutters unbundled vision of the future.

Ah how business is REALLY done in China...

The problem here is it would hurt Disney's stock price more than it would hurt UNI, Disney has painted themselves into a nice corner here.

That 'ESPN Household' chart looks like Splash Mountain... Or should I say Summit Plummet....

Am I the only one who thinks that they missed an opportunity "Ralph Wrecks the Internet"

You're hired!

Great new trailer for Coco:

This movie keeps looking like a bad version of Book of Life. BoL has a unique style, and a great story and cast. I will wait and see, but I was hoping for more than a dog chasing a skeleton bone. It seems like that has been done and done. Pixar is better than that IMHO. Despite my early fears, I hope it turns out well.

Gee, Volcano Bay is priced as a water park. Go figure. I'm sure it will be great but that's always what it was.

I'm not quite sure what to make of it yet. I think Disney does a terrible job of advertising their animated movies so it may be better than is being presented. I think it will fall along the lines of Good Dinosaur IMO, in terms of reception and box office. We'll see.
