And that's why you have choices. It's nice PhotoPass cast take photos with personal cameras, too.Man- I'm not so sure about that "Memory Maker" thing. My DH would say " I can make my OWN memories with my camera/video."

I don't really understand how this would work for Haunted Mansion and Big Thunder.
For other rides, the photos are on display as people are exiting the ride where they can see them and it is fresh in their memory. The Yankee Trader and Briar Patch are several yards away from the exit of their respective rides so what would make the guests venture all the way to that area. There is no guarantee that guests would walk all the way over to those shops after riding to look at their photo. Doesn't make sense to me. Can someone explain?

Photos go straight to your Magic Band.

They could have it at the end of the ride, when everyone has a bucket and is bailing water from the bottom of the new ride boats.

It's France. they should have said "Non", and everyone would have stopped.
That's assuming they spoke French and not one of the dozen or so other languages from the continent.

To clarify, so that people don't continue to think anything is stored on a Magic Band, the photos would be saved to your online account, which can then be accessed at a park PhotoPass location using your Magic Band, or viewed online once logged into your MDE account.

To be fair, I rode Pirates 5 times this month sitting in the front row twice, the rear once and various middle rows twice. Only once while sitting in the starboard bow did I get wet at all, and that was just a bit on my arm. I was expecting something from The Poseidon Adventure after reading all the extremely dramatic accounts on this forum leading up to my trip and was pleasantly surprised by how inaccurate they appear to be.They could have it at the end of the ride, when everyone has a bucket and is bailing water from the bottom of the new ride boats.

This part right here is my biggest problem with this. I'm all for more ride photos. I'm all for them on some of the "classic" attractions. I'm all for them on these 3 attractions. What I dont like is the flash. I'd HATE to have a flash go off in that amazing totally dark drop on Pirates. Haunted Mansion, I could see in other areas how a flash could be hidden (think lightening flashes in windows or something), but in Hitchhiking Ghosts, it feels like it would detract! Big Thunder, as long as it's outside, I have no problem, but in the cave area? That's just something taking you out of theme immediately!
Can Disney somehow come up with some form of flashless flash?

Just make sure he doesn't hand the video camera to some guy who has you step in a fountain....... (of course that requires working water features)

I think the flash would fit with theme of pirates because your are "flashing" back to pirate times.

I think that if they wanted a cool spot for Pirates, somewhere embedded in the fort area right as you're turning the corner, so they could get the boat with the pirate ship in the background, that'd be pretty awesome. The flash could be timed with cannon fire at that point.
Still, I'm sure they'll put it on the drop, so you spend all your time in the dark caves, hit the dark drop, get blinded, and your sight finally returns to you around the time of the wench auction.

It's called night blindness. They messed it up on Space Mountain (Orlando) already.

I like his info but his delivery is awful. He seems to be very arrogant as of late and I no longer appreciate his attitude.

Am I the only one who doesn't like the idea of a HM gift shop? Especially since it makes no since thematically? I guess I'd be fine if they left it as the YT but themed it around the ghost sailor from HM. Otherwise I don't like it. :/

"Padholes" hahaha, that's a great term.
I'm excited for these IF they're done right and unobtrusive.

It's very rare that I actually laugh out loud, but reading that sentence was one occasion.
I like HM and IASW merchandise, but would prefer to find a section of WoD that had ride-specific merchandise grouped together.
Sometimes, when people get off rides, they have something else to do or somewhere to go and no time to shop. Also, it's no fun to carry a bag around the park. I know they offer services where you can go pick it up elsewhere, but who wants to add waiting in yet another line? Not me.
I'd like to have shopping in the shopping place. WoD, the Emporium, Mouse Gear, that sort of thing. Not that it matters what I want, of course.
