Today, hopscotch obstacle course to enter POTC at 7:30 pm.

Edit: we also scored Fantasmic FPs for the 9pm show at 5:15pm on the app. Loving it!

I am not sure if this was intentional or what.

But that video would seem to be entirely shot during the morning hours, which are normally far less crowded, and only showcases rides which typically have low wait times during that time.

For those of us, keeping an eye on wait times throughout each day, those are clearly not representative of the general conditions. And make no mistake, the park is crowded, just not overly so, as we are so used to now.

Maybe this should all be contained in a "Disneyland Attendance Decline/Financial Crisis" thread. I fear this will have devastating impacts on cast members and future entertainment. You all thought we had it bad with Guardians and Pixar Pier makeovers. I think chances are we won't get anything on even that level anymore. I bet you whatever technical issues Rise of the Silver Surfer is having means those features just get cut and we end up with an underwhelming attraction.

This was definitely in the morning hours. Usually from park opening to like 11 am (even on pretty crowded days) the lines are very short.

For those of you curious what the Disneyland Resort looks like right now with 5 minute waits everywhere... well, here's a great video. Most amazing part? Mickey and Minnie dancing on a completely empty Mainstreet.


We actually saw him walking by in Downtown Disney while we were having lunch at La Brea Bakery on the 24th.

What happened?

With regards to getting the ban at WDW lifted or the new ban at Universal? For WDW, he appealed the ban multiple times and eventually got it reversed (three years later). With regards to Universal, I believe some of his older videos (where he was doing similar things that got him banned at WDW like filming in backstage areas and going in areas not clearly open to the public) caught up with him. For those unaware, many years ago, Adam was very much into the "urban exploring" scene and "sneaking" into areas that are not generally available to the public. At Disney, I believe what got him banned was a combination of videos at the closed River Country and the second floor at Imagination (there may be others). At Universal, his most popular urban exploring video was a video of the long closed Nickelodeon Studios. That was in 2012. I believe they only finally banned him two years ago for that video, though he really gave up the videos of sneaking into restricted places after the Disney ban.

Since then, he's really turned himself around. His videos are quite wholesome, very family friendly, and he's really cautious to make sure he's only filming what he has permission to. He posted a very heartfelt video admitting his wrong doing with regards to the Disney incident and his gratefulness to have the ban lifted.

You know what Disney should do.... Disney should film another Sing Along Film since the parks are empty! You can have DLR version and DCA version. Imagine just seeing nobody on Main Street while the characters are dancing to their songs. I used to love these as a kid and wanted to see more of them haha
