NO one is talking about this? This isn't another cash grab? Come on people- Cheap Cheap!

P.S. I swear I recognize the guy on the right from Adv Club- perhaps Otis T Wren?

Yes, he is from the Adv Club

I wonder when the first teaser for Beauty And The Best will finally get shown?

Should be soon. I know people who saw the test footage at a screening and it got standing ovations which means people liked it so I would think Disney would cut one to get it hyped.

Speaking of movies, Disney seems to have some more winners on their hands coming out...

As I type, The Jungle Book has a 92% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and Captain America: Civil War has 100% ratings, though it's early (only 14 reviews since they only started today) but has been getting pretty solid hype on social media.

Looks like another good one but it's still becoming too much.

More like it will be the film that no other Disney movie will be able to touch, best actor/ best actress/Best Director/best picture Oscar winning live action film was what I was told but I agree. If anything, Disney should be revamping the obscure less popular films in order to make them popular and sell old merchandise for the less popular films because that would be super cool and hipster.

How about not doing remakes? Or at least so much of them?

Wait, what is this thread? Who is Spirit? Who is in charge here? What's going on? What? How? What is this trainwreck?

As was mentioned to you, it's part of a secret organization of learning disabled individuals who are slowly learning to distinguish between hoaxes and reality. Some have been afflicted with this disability for many years but others are indeed learning to identify and differentiate between verifiable fact and uncorroborated rumor.

Not going to happen on Disney's side. Sean Bailey who lead Disney's live action division knows it easy money. Why do you think there are so many Peter Pans, Jungle Books, etc? No matter what they do, they know they will get Money back.

Civil war looks good but I have zero desire to see Dr Strange

Did they ever put a date out for Tim Burton's Dumbo? That will be an interesting one.

"Time....to unpimp...zee auto."

What's more amazing is that you actually watched "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen".

Sure it was bad but I love it just for Sean's role. Flawless.

1. And? They have a money making IP and have chosen to build an attraction around it in a park. Frozen is a story based on a Norwegian tale....they are putting in Norway.......What?.... Is it because the the park they are putting it in doesn't suit your taste? Sorry. Please explain...where is the problem?

2. Not exactly sure what you are talking about here. There are a heck of a lot of posts here with the opinion Marvel in Orlando would make WDW better.....please expand.

3. Please name one cutback due to Shanghai that has personally affected you......thought so.

4. Overpriced in who's eyes...the people that have paid for tickets? What you feel is overpriced is completely subjective.

5. VA is still a 5 star restuarant is it not? There are many quality dinning options in WDW. Care to elaborate on your point?

6. Which ride?

Yes...Please keep going.....

You sir will get zero likes. You need more pixie dust.

 

[matt9112]

Me too. I know the past, I see some of the problems, but it's still a fun place to visit. When I feel like the price no longer justifies the experience I'll sadly move on. I think some people here have hit that breaking point already.

Visit universal more often....that's the only way WDW will get better.

 

[matt9112]

Pooh wasn't really a better ride it was just a different theme with pretty much the same ride. If we got the higher end version of Pooh with the trackless ride system it would have been an upgrade. Toad had some nostalgia factor to it as well.

The problem most people here see with Frozen in Norway is that it doesn't belong in WS. It's a cheap and quick way to get a Frozen attraction open ASAP. Ask yourself this question if Norway never had a boat ride would Disney likely want to add one to Norway and theme it to Frozen? Unlikely. There are better places for it and probably better ride systems too. The main reason it's happening is to save money and time.

Even if we look past the location....IF DISNEY IS SO GREAT and frozen is such a great movie (it is) why did you cheap out for an overlay on a ride from the 70s? I mean they can't pony up for a new ride even if it was stl in Norway that's the part that bugs me.

 

[matt9112]

23 days more than Diagon Alley going by the dates of the official openings.

That stings.

I do, but not in the same trip as WDW. I have family in FL so I'm down there pretty frequently. When I go to WDW it's usually a Disney only trip. Other times I will skip Disney completely and visit different places (Uni, Sea, Legoland, the beach). I like the parks, but I like to try to relax a little too. I also find the Disney parks less stale by not visiting as frequently

We just moved down and looking to snag APs Disneys cost twice as much as universal (you could argue park count) but yeah I love Disney but they are on the back burner.

Simple answer is it was cheaper and faster. For Disney new = 3 years. This will be done faster and of course it's much cheaper
