Agreed.
It’s one thing to watch Mike Tyson pummel opponent on TV and another to personally get hit in the ribs with his left.
Expect a blow to the gut

Yep. That one. Sadly. AK is a great park at night

100% on that statement. At least move it to 9 PM on weekends or something.

The general consensus - it appears - is that the parks are underdelivering…
Now is that “blaming the cusomters”?
No.
But they aren’t doing what a well managed company does: which is immediately admit mistakes to regain trust and course correct asap.
Bob?
Nothing.
Not only are they hatching this stinker…they have nothing underway and are yielding the Orlando market to their competitors for the next few years at a minimum.
These are inexcusable mistakes.

Well parks are handled differently than content.
They have becoming notorious for ALWAYS blaming the customer for content failure…
Parks are handled as I said: they twist the reality to make it seem the customers “want it”…even disasters like genie.
They also don’t really comment on individual P&R components much. It’s “strength in numbers” that is always referred to

Ah yes, guests want 5 more DVC resorts /s
But seriously, we don’t need more DVC.

…did I give the impression I was unaware of their predicament?
Its much worse than fan’s will admit in forums such as this

That’s just a damage control thing
People need to stop buying dvc. It’s not a “status symbol” and doesn’t even fulfill the vanity instinct that new owners believe it will quench.
Clearly the execs and creatives in this company are living in their own little echo chamber.
The last hope I have is the hardcore Disney fans.
When Iger takes the stage at D23 he needs to be met with an ear shattering chorus of boos, that is sustained until he is forced to leave the stage.
At some point if we as the hardcore fans don’t stand up for what we love, we are going to lose It all.
It’s time to send a message.

Fun fact, I saw Pandora at night for the first time during a runDisney Expedition Everest 5K race. I’ve been going to Pandora since it opened.

I agree, even as a DVC member. They keep building more and more capacity for DVC, and the added capacity in the parks comes at a much slower pace if at all.
Watched the daytime uncut POV and had some more thoughts.
- Upper loop didn't need dialogue screamed at us. It was a perfect way to get us settled into the world of the critters while still feeling like our world.
- Why does Tiana wait until the boats at her to say "I sure want yall to play at the party!" We're not the musicians, right?
- Mama Odies "Think big! Go tiny!" Line comes out of absolutely nowhere. Tianas line right before it is "I hope they all come to the party! Let's explore!" Giving us no indication we need to shrink or are looking for anything small.
- Laughin' Place is an utter waste. Props for the jumping fountains but that's it.
- Mama Odie screen where the boothill boys were is just lazy.
- Lari adds nothing to the post-splashdown tunnel. He may be mentioned in another line of dialouge but I didn't hear it in the POV I watched.

Or better yet a walk out or chanting of some sort.

There's also really nothing big/exciting on the horizon other than Tiana (which, we can debate how exciting that really is). Universal has an entire new park opening. Disney has nothing major coming anytime soon, as even the enhancements to AK will be several years out at best, and even longer for MK.

Is this just after or just before he gives himself another contract extension?
And the time to send a message was two months ago when he could have been proxied into being forced out.
So now you get what you get
Well forums like these are where the hardcore fans communicate.
We can’t band together and organize a walkout when Iger appears?

Guests continue to visit WDW because of nostalgia (actually, not much is left of that but).
I have gotten to the point where I know what I want to experience in each park and it’s not the new stuff. It’s MuppetVision, ToT, Fantasmic, Spaceship Earth, Figment, GOTG (exception), LWTL, Tiki Room, things like that.

Can we not do the stupid “social issues” debate?
If we really want to make sweeping generalizations, the mess that is TBA and the Disney parks in general has a lot more to do with the state of corporate capitalism in modern America than any hot button issue, but that’s sure not going to be a productive discussion here, so let’s just focus on the rides and the immediate issues with Imagineering and management.
