New CM Uniforms across HS

[phillip9698]

The old costume looked pretty meh. If anything the generic one is an upgrade.

Ah I remember the days in Magic Kingdom when you could get a written reprimand for "cross-theming" (ie showing up on Main Street in a Frontierland costume).

You very much still can.

Quite frankly I’m shocked that there were so many costumes in the first place... Have you guys seen the inside of the costume storage location? It’s INSANE!!! And over half the time they NEVER have the size you need. :-/ and I literally mean half the time. It’s so odd. I needed a large men’s shirt and a 36x32 pair of pants for pirates, and I ALWAYS had to go down a size on the shirt and up a size on the pants in order to find something that would work.

Costuming is not as organized/productive/affective as it should be. Especially with the constant temporary college program students constantly not knowing the answers to hardly any questions. It’s unfortunate really. And a big mess of a system.

I don’t see the problem. Muppetvision lost its uniqueness a while ago. Replacing the costumes is just the next step in the whole bland theme they decided to go with for that section.

Knew we could count on you.

Thank you for your comments, though they have nothing to do with what I wrote. Every time you post you keep reinforcing that you're just posting to have something childish and nasty to say even though you don't have a legitimate response to that which you're replying.

 

[bUU]

Yes because large numbers of people here are only outraged about things others tell them they should be outraged about.

Well said.

Who’s the parks VP again?

It’s not a costume, it’s a uniform.

Oh, the irony....

Who’s the parks VP again?

Some guy who doesn't understand what Disney is about or how to run a theme park.

 

[HauntedPirate]

So where does this fit in? Safety? No. Courtesy? No. Show? Nope. Efficiency? Ding ding ding!

Phil, the "gift" that keeps on giving...

This is bigger than Phil. This is a multi park initiative.

What I find so odd about this is how Disney in some places is realizing that the CM's uniforms add to the experience, such as with the HM awnings now matching them. But then they go and do this. It's hard to sometimes wrap my head around that this is indeed one company.

It reeks of "too many cooks".

I completely agree. That should be a property wide decision. It should be consistent throughout WDW. Either have the costumes be unique for the areas or don't. I think the unique CM costumes add to the overall experience.

Be careful what you wish for...

Always? In your vast 2 weeks on stage?

That's what I'm saying. You'd think they'd have it down by two weeks. Glad we're on the same page.

Ah man, I actually see this all the time now. Also lots of "friends of characters" walking around pulling their costume cases.

The first time I noticed this was at Figment... they went from “Imagination Institute” lab coats to generic Epcot blue.
