You can spend time and resources on more than one thing at a time.

Yep that is absolutely the only thing they're working on right now, as evidenced by the fact that the whole event was centered around this quick demo. No other presentations were made.

Admit it, Disney could've, hypothetically speaking, announced the greatest advancement in theme park history and people would still find a reason to complain. No matter what this company does, they're never going to please everyone.

 

[BernardandBianca]

I do not know of any way to soften this, so here goes: People, It's a bus! That thing that most of you try to avoid when you come down. Really.

Tokyo Disney Sea

They're talking about Society of Explorers and Adventurers

I think it looks a lot more fun. Bus rides aren't ever "relaxing" to me in the first place.

The bus is currently not planned for production but instead a display of how technology could in the future enhance the transport experience.

Me: "So... it's a bus?"
Disney: "No. Much more better. It is a LIGHT-UP BUS."

At least it's a prototype

 

[VJ]

At least it's a prototype

It's a prototype light up bus that will cost $500 a ride when it premieres in 20 years. We all know it.

So, instead of reading the ads, they beam them straight into your eyes and ears!!

What a time to be alive!!!

What about the time Dreamfinder showed up?

That was a special moment for those in attendance and it shows you what D23 is capable of being and doing. My suggestion would be to appoint a head - someone to be the face of the organization to whom feedback can be given and then separate D23 renewals and merchandise orders from The Disney Store. Those 2 changes would go a long way with me.

If they continue to take as long as they do to build and open these attractions, while continuing to increase prices regardless of new offerings, then, yes, you are going to hear the same complaints.

They have done it in the past. Remember the Monster Summer promotion:

I was there for that.
I thought the projection of Mike was really cool.

Is this Disney trying get their foot in the door as a Party Bus? When does the pole get added?

 

[ChrisFL]

So a standard bus with some color changing LED's and speakers? This is the best they can come up with? I can do that with $200 and one day of programming.

They should have added screens similar to the ones at Disney Cruise Line that features various Disney/Pixar characters.

I agree, either on the banner areas up above or even maybe do something in the windows (?) There's plenty of new technology available to do something much cooler.

I also agree that maybe in the later hours they should tone down the media for tired guests

 

[co10064]

Maybe I really am missing something here, but what ever became of that "in park gathering"?

I guess Imagineering took on the challenge of making bus service even more intolerable and obnoxious. Two minutes and I would be pulling the emergency release on the windows to hurl my body to the pavent on World drive.

I feel terrible for anyone with a loved one who is autistic and sensitive to stimuli. Ugh.
