My Love For Disney is Being Tested Today

[Disney Irish]

Watch it, dude: Treading on non-PC ground, there! You run for office, someone's gonna dig that quote up and take it all outta context!

I have way more skeletons in my closest then to worry about that quote. No public office for me.

Disney World offers adult 'Character Couture' makeovers for grown-up princesses

Dear Disney,

I love you, but why oh why do you keep pandering to the masses with this embarrassing junk? I mean I know why, but could you please show some restraint? I imagine it's just a matter of time before this comes to Anaheim.

Please stop. Please.

Kind regards,

Hans

I can't.

My wife and I would get a divorce if she did that.

 

[Gabe1]

They look worse

My thought too.

Now I have entered my AARP years...there is a time for leaving some Disney 'things' for the youth and accepting some things Disney are meant for our Children and Grandchildren. Looking at these women they looked lovely before, after.....

The second from the left Housewife (Jasmine?) actually looks kind of better. The other three look worse, and even fatter, but like a kindergartner did their makeup and a seventh grade girl made their dresses in Home Ec class.

Why would these ladies agree to this level of public shaming? I hope they at least got a half dozen Fastpasses added to their MagicBands for this embarassment.

My issue with it isn't that adults are playing dress up... well yeah, I do have an issue with that... but really what bothers me is how BAD the makeovers are. I've seen amateur drag queens do better Disney characters. People are paying to look like that?

Wait. Those aren't drag queens?

 

[Nonsuch]

The Princess makeover the women on Big Bang Theory have in The Contractual Obligation Implementation is now possible. Surprising it took Disney 5 years to respond to this episode

Maybe don't shame people for how they spend their time and money? And maybe don't put down anyone for their looks from behind your keyboard?

These women picked out their outfits beforehand. All they paid for was a little pampering and a good time. There's obviously a market, so why shouldn't Disney offer it? This couldn't bother anyone that much, could it?

When they have a slave girl Leia option, I'm signing up my wife immediately.

cuz diznee yo

this is nothing compared to having began the dumb princess craze in the first place...
to mention nothing of it's subsequent overcompensation.

Maybe don't be afraid to call Disney out on their more greedy and ridiculous moves?

All four women looked great pre-"princess." The end results are just sad (except maybe the Jasmine woman whose new hairdo showed more of her face), and it has nothing to do with their normal looks--it's just a bad make-over. The end result is not the fault of the women: It's Disney's fault.

"There's obviously a market, so why shouldn't Disney offer it?" Um, good taste? Knowing when bad is bad? Having the foresight to properly handle your brand without driving it into the ground? There's also obviously a market for professional wrestling and tongue piercing booths, but does that mean Disney should bring them into Disney parks, all Disney-fied?

Disneyland was originally meant to inspire as well as entertain. It's not supposed to encourage people to blow money on bad services and unfulfilled promises.

One way or another, those women deserve an apology from Disney and free APs for five years.

If only the entire WDC could fall under the "Liar, Liar" truth curse for just one day... and have it apply to all the park signage as well...

 

[Model3 McQueen]

It's whatever. It doesn't effect me as a park goer, and if people enjoy that kind of thing then more power to them

Does it make sense? Absolutely not.

Yah, they would never stoop so low as to have professional wrestling at Disney World!

That's just Florida (southern) culture. Wrestling goes with NASCAR. I'm surprised there isn't better BBQ places on property.

 

[Rich T]

I'm constantly amazed by the folks who (assuming unpaid) will defend each and every Disney makes whether it be good, bad, great or terrible. I think some of them are just too young to have ever experienced what the parks *used* to be like, back when everyone got much, much more than their money's worth and everyone could afford to go to DL...

DL used to have an awesome BBQ place. Thanks a lot, Star Wars.

It was ok. Maybe they will have Bantha Burgers and Dewback Ribs?

If they're happy and this enhanced their experience then good for them!

We don’t condone this kind of moral relativism on these boards!
