The spaceballs retheme will sell out at ludicrous speed.

Where you can surround yourself with a##holes

The thing is a most Disney entertainers in florida usually don't make much money anyway. It's not a particularly strong union. Bob is such a cheap ahole.

Ripping off the points is one thing…but selling DVC rooms at cash is very much overestimated. They don’t pimp very many of those rooms for cash…because the whole point of the DVC conversions in the first place is that they couldn’t sell the rooms at cash.

in the last 10 years…DVC is given a lot “credit” for things it does not do…like giving Disney this big war chest of cash…which it never did. It’s to get people there to spend more money…it always was and will be…no matter what their policies are to the members. Which are quite bad as it stands.

I always imagined selling the points when you are unable to go and your points are about to expire. Better get some cashback than to lose everything.

That’s the rental market and it’s robust…

I may have been wrong…but the inference I got was “Disney takes points for the slow boat to Fatuu…then disney sells the room that those points would have gone to for cash”?

problem there is the reason there’s so much DVC is they couldn’t sell the rooms and had to convert them. They are already on Plan B

again…I could have been misinterpreting?

Best line of the movie…

Great Wolf Lodge level entertainment at only 10 times the price.

Way more than 10x. A room including water park admission is about $100 for a family of 4 if you time it right.

Maybe 100x even

I was gonna say, lol.

 

[Ayla]

God, I love their social media team.

 

[larryz]

Well, A to the B and clear through to Z, I really really feel they've made the golden retriever pregnant on this one.

GWL has a few games, besides Magic Quest, one where you avoid lasers, one where you push lit buttons. This would fit right in. They could probably charge 10 bucks a play.View attachment 619469

Which one has all that? The closest one to us has an arcade and a run down 9 hole mini golf course.

The one in MA has an arcade, the wand game, and a "recreation room" with small obstacle courses and stuff. It looks way more fun than it actually is. Even the waterslides are old to my boys at this point.

Do we have a reliable explanation of the situation with the entertainment cast contracts? It seems significant.

My friend saw the article earlier today, I notice now that it has been taken down... I assume either it is completely true and it was demanded to be removed, or that it is completely false and they pulled it so as to not look dumb.

In other words. you have no idea?

 

[mergatroid]

I've said if this is going to be a disaster, I want it to be a spectacular one. We seem to be well on our way. Excited to see low-rent Kylo Ren fumble the lines he's only had 3 weeks to practice.

Well you have to pay your 8ish dollars a year for maintenance fees, which is actually the cost to run the operation. When you go to trade them for a different room, cruise, or whatever, they basically give you about $8 worth of cash for those points rather than the buying power they'd actually have in DVC rooms. So at that point they could sell the rooms at half cost and it's all profit.

Chump change…in the grand scheme of things…the profits aren’t made off rooms.

Nothing ever dies on the internet…it’s out there

it would be great if someone posted it

I only skimmed it, but the fire/rehire language was confusing. ”Rehire” made it sound more like legal red tape than a serious staffing setback. More to the point, it sounded like disgruntled CM gossip, so that probably is a sign things are going well.

Chump change is still legal tender
