Well, it’s not new.

True! But everyone was waiting for big 6 hour waits that never happened. I think it’ll end up just like any of the other big attractions in their respective parks

Sukkot is now. No Jewish holidays in October this year

But, again, it's not new. If it was standby only when it first opened, yeah I think it would have gotten 6 hour waits. As is, a lot of folks who would be potentially riding it now have already ridden it - maybe repeatedly already - and likely wouldn't have the wait tolerance were it new and novel.
That being said, I'm curious to see the wait times when international travel returns. Most of those folks never had much of a window to ride. And a Brit on a 2-3 week holiday probably won't care as much waiting in a 3+ our line than the guy from Chicago only going to WDW for 4 days.

It’s really the only reason to change the line at this pointAnd no IAS yet. Give it a couple of weeks. I suspect the lion's share of ROTR's capacity will be allocated to IAS.
Disney can either give ROTR away for free or charge Guests $24 a ride.
What do you think they'll do under Chapek?
Bob (the lesser) promised his investors “cash”…and godammit…there will be cash!!!
in this case - by trying to force the newbies into spending $20 at 9:30 when it’s likely not needed

First time I’ve ever heard of Yom Kippur referred to as a “driver of wdw travel”?
September is also not “Brazilian tourist season”…it’s British…
and those numbers are always incredibly exaggerated. Most wdw visitors are domestic…every single stinker day
there’s also been little to no “free” dining in about 6 years. That was big shot Bobby’s housing crash hook…and that crash was 8/12/08.
…you may be seeing soon - however - based on the pricing and tactics now employed.
there’s a simple explanation for all this…

Sure, but it still is one. You think this is comparable to what June'll be?

More crowds in June…more staff…longer hours…longer days…etc etc

I think it is still a strong deterrent due to mandatory quarantines. Once kids get the vaccine, it will be back to normal. I expect crowds in 2022.

A shift in public attitudes and aggressive, egregious pricing tactics may have a bit to do with it as well

Ok, so this isn't a good baseline for comparison then. Got it.

I thought Harry Potter had killed him during the Battle of Hogwarts.
Crap.

For once in my 30+ year habit of watching disney patterns and prognostication…I just don’t know
I don’t think the Disney management knows either
they seem to be operating off assumptions that are “problematic” at best

Remember how Roy e described Eisners approach to the parks?
I would take Eisner back in a cocaine heartbeat.

My eye-roll was because your wish was basically "I want to cut the line" which, don't we all?No need for an eye-roll, sorry my wish upset you so much!
And, nothing is impossible...
