Server: Would you like to try the chef's eggplant delicacy? It's nice and firm. When I'm in the kitchen I often find myself chowing down on it.

Nothing good gets posted after 2 a.m.

I guess the difference is that sports stadiums have been doing it forever. And also there has been an instance I can think of where a company became controversial because of a sports commercial, so double edged sword there.

Epcot has been doing it forever too - it's had corporate sponsors since opening day.

As did Disneyland.

As did the MK. And DHS.

Eggplant is gross anyway. It ruined itself. Emojis are the best thing it has going for it.

Unless it sings Veggie Veggie Fruit Fruit...

Bet this show confused a lot of vegans...

Reported to mods.

Oh, they've seen my eggplants. They were very impressed.

Cha-cha-cha!

The only reason why Sunset Showcase isn’t being used for DPA is because it is used pretty frequently for events, and DPA uses their space often.

That reminds me, Kitchen Kabaret plush:

Massive 2018 European Lidl supermarket campaign. Same size, material:

 

[Jenny72]

That's me!!!

Actually, I have an old beaten-up Kitchen Kabaret tomato in my living room. I love it. My family also got the broccoli and eggplant. We never, ever bought merchandise in the parks, but we made an exception for these because we just loved this show. Sigh.

So.... it'll be a WALL·E show?

 

[Bocabear]

well....Wall-E makes sense at least...

 

[ᗩLᘿᑕ ✨ ᗩζᗩᗰ]

right!? I'd be OK with that.

Timon amd Pumba always felt shoe-horned in...Wall-E was actually about destroying and repairing the environment... Truly if thewre were ever a perfect fit, this is it. and Wall-E and Eve animatronics would be a great dynamic addition to the show...

Cartoon IPs are atonal to FW.

Having said that, I get your point, but I think it is a mistake, albeit one that Joe Rhohdhe makes too so you're in good company. Environmentalism is better served by showing what is worth to protect, than by showing what is left after destruction. Show beauty, not ugliness.

One could get off ride-with-message Kali and still not know what, exactly, there is worthy to protect then. Yes, logging creates fast flowing rivers. But all you see is that these make for fun rafting for tourists. Better to show the magnificence of the jungle than the fires of the loggers. The way it is better to show the power and magnificence of wild Africa than the dystopian garbage heaps of Wall-E.

Don't forget the lapsang souchong. Sometimes you just have to slow down and smell the lapsang souchong.

The Land will be getting a sizeable refresh in the not too distant future.

So, would it be getting a interior and exterior overhaul? Or should I lower expectations? How long would it be closed?
