"Disney Early Morning Magic - Fantasyland" Anyone know?

[Baloo62]

The fact that a meal at Diamond Horseshoe is $59.99 is outrageous unto itself.

Those aren't metal detectors that they're installing; they're magnets that suck loose change out of your pockets.

I think they are going to start charging extra for entrance into each land inside the parks next

Didn't take long for the typical Disney defenders to show up

Use the ignore button! No point in suffering through a two sided discussion!

...and exit. (credz to Roz in Laugh Floor)

Could always resort back to Walt's original dream, charging per ride + park admission.

then park admission better be $1

 

[LSUxStitch]

then park admission better be $1

Then we all better go back to making 4-5k dollars per year per family.

Try looking at the bigger picture.

A man of the people!

In my opinion in the big picture we don't matter, but Disney will reap the consequences (good or bad) of their actions via guests spending or not spending their money. This board has a fan base that is very analytical, and coupled with our love of Disney we get concerned about changes. Personally I like that Disney is adding ways to enable people to get something extra. I remember at Disneyland when we ran out of E-tickets being very disappointed, but the purpose was similar as this type of event. Will this kind of change impact me negatively? Maybe, but it may also impact many people in a positive way - good for them!

tell us the truth...are you creating a bunch of accounts under different user names and hammering them on this?

haha no... it seems like there are plenty of people doing just fine on their own

cant beat an early morning appointment with Pooh.

If I have said it once, then I have said it once, the day can go right down the toilet if the morning does not include a Pooh.

Things like this don't really bother me that much....I just think it is silly and not a very creative way to generate some additional revenue.

But look on the other side - think of all the families that will enjoy this!

The quality of advice by General Obvious and the officers of the Fandango Boys Corps is fantastic. Im awaiting the guidance on wiping after dumping, ponchos in inclement weather and the medicinal qualities of WDW and pixie dust for those suffering from financial prudence.

Not a fan of hot beverages, wonder if theyll swap in some vodka.

A) - Use a Circular motion followed by a back and forth and finished with light dabbing. It is recommended to discard the soiled paper after each method.
B) - Do not put the poncho away wet. . .
C) - Pixie Dust has NO medicinal quality even if Whoopi Goldberg decides to open her own shop

7:45? Doesn't the park open at like 9am? If so, I get the privilege of paying $69 for cafeteria quality breakfast with a couple of thousand (hundred?) other people and maybe squeezing in a ride before the park opens? I don't think they thought that one through enough other than hearing an imaginary cash register ringing.

This is beyond nickel and diming. This is flat out shaking by the ankles for anything they haven't already categorically sucked from your wallet. It's downright embarrassing the level they are stooping to get at every possible dollar. And yes, it's a business and its main purpose is to make money, but draw a line somewhere. Why not just go to pay toilets at this point?

 

[CaptainAmerica]

Wow this is a remarkably terrible offering at an absurd price.

That said, I'm kewl with it as long as it doesn't affect EMH.

I remember a time when I would get excited about Disney news...and now it just infuriates me. It seems like the majority of news is either upcharge events, attraction closings, or delays.
