News Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

[180º]

are canopies at entrances now called "Greeter Structures"? I have never heard that term in my life.
Are we going to star calling the turnstiles at each of the parks "Greeter Structures"?

That spot in the cast member rotation at the entrance of an attraction is called “greeter.” Now you’ve heard the term.

We have a membership for Six Flags locally and, while they are doing better, that DC ride would barely be good enough for Universal, much less Disney.

Are you familiar with WebSpinners? It’s awful - worse then the DC ride in just about every way.

And Universal is at the same level as Disney and has been since Hogsmeade opened.

I know what a "Greeter" is but I have never heard the canopy structure by an entrance called a "Greeter Structure"...Yes I can understand what it is... Just not heard that term used before.

No, because they are turnstiles.

All the cool kids call them tapstiles now!!!

All the cool kids call them tapstiles now!!!

And yet neither are the correct term

And this is why you don't sit at the cool kids' table at lunch!!

Lately, Disney has been arguably slipping and starting to use internal terminology in press releases and materials. From the "Daytime Activation" now to "Greeter Structure," it makes me wonder where the line will end up drawn.

Neither tapstile nor turnstile… so what is the correct word? Now I have to know.

Probably when they start referring to all guests as "treasured guests"

I thought we were just “consumers” now?

I believe under Chapek the proper internal word is "sucker" or perhaps "patsy".

Yep. And when Josh referred to the Disney Dream, WDW, and Galactic Starcruiser as products.

I expected that you were referring to the Frozen ride; I have not been on the WebSpinners ride. It looks like WebSpinners is the same concept of the DC ride; I would hope that the quality of it were better.

Universal definitely makes rides that are well done; but we don't enjoy them as much as Disney (Hagrid's motorbilkes would be a significant exception but you have to have someone with you willing to ride in the passenger seat - not the same experience at all; Mummy is really good; most others are too much noise)

Jurassic Park River Adventure and E.T. are great! They're my two favorite rides at Universal. Mummy is probably third.

If you’re a big thrill person Velocicoaster blows any other coaster in Florida out of the water, at least in terms of pure layout and thrills.

They're pre-written, the other month they F'd up and forgot to delete a section of copy with notes on.
I feel like they're trying to do what Joe used to do with Instagram, to make zack the relatable celebrity Imagineers only it's much more contrieved than the Authentic stuff Greg and Shelby put out on Velocicoaster.

“Treasured/cherished guests” has always read a bit like “Dear Leader” to me, but without any of the associated authoritarian power.
