Bookings for the rest of 2024 are soft. Rooms aren’t being filled. Why do you think there’s almost always some sort of promotion?

I mean…the ride layout is still fun, of course. That double dip should feel like the boat tunnel in Willy Wonka.
I suspect it will feel like Navi River Journey with drops.

Yeah, that's not attacking or blaming fans. It's misleading and false but they didn't specifically target the fans in either of those situations.

Corporate is going to read the YouTube comments and chalk it up to the #SaveSplash group. When in reality, it’s mostly coming from fans of PATF who want a quality product.

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.

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.
