My buddy bumped into Bob Iger at the Brown Derby today. Maybe he was getting a preview of TSL?
So I guess Disney has started to let a few guests ride SLinky coaster?
It’s still hands down the best thing at beaches and cream.Calling it "bisque" is a bit pretentious, but a grilled cheese sandwich and a bowl of tomato soup is as iconic a memory of a Saturday lunch as a kid as I can remember...
I’m definitely an A.S.S. Man.Some people prefer A.S.S. while others prefer tow truck driver’s junk. I say there’s room for all in America.

Someone posted on the disboards that a club 33 member was able to ride. From what I’ve heard they are still only using CMs and that started just recently.What leads you to believe that?
I'm glad to hear the Mr. Potato Head animatronic is returning after being missing for 2 years. I hope they used some of that time to improve his ability to remove and replace his own ear?? They removed that sequence early on because Mr. Potato Head would often drop his ear.
Oh really? Disneyland’s still did it before they started the Pixar Pier redo, and I saw him do it in 2013 and 2014 at DHS.
That is just what a cast member told me, I think it might have been a 2013 visit. Not an authoritative source I know, but I had no reason not to believe them. I've also been a central Florida local since 2014 and never saw the ear removal sequence after many visits between then and when he was removed, but it's possible I was just unlucky.
IIRC, They have done this with most additions (I know Pandora was the exception). For instance, I think I recall FEA only recently allowing FP’s that start at opening.Interesting tidbit-
SDD is only allowing fastpasses as early as 8:40 for an 8am opening and A.S.S. Is only allowing 8:30. This is 70 days out with one person right at opening.
Clearly a move to try to decrease stand by times with the initial wave. Futile effort, but at least they’re trying.

No. 9:40 was the start I believe. I certainly had FPs before 10 am.Yes, pretty sure FPs only started at 11am for quite some time, before opening them at 9am at some point. Maybe 2016 or so????
I like that it is an admission, by Disney, that FP is a fiasco that apparently causes more problems then it solves.
Here we go again. Just because you don't like FP (and that's fine, I get that), doesn't mean it's a fiasco. I have no idea where you're getting this 'admission' from. You have this myopic view of the past where everyone was happy waiting in line, yet the original paper FP system (not FP+) was designed specifically in response to declining guest satisfaction with the length of the lines, and increased wait times. We can debate forever on whether it has succeeded or not (and from my view of the evidence, it mostly has), but to say that everyone enjoyed waiting in line before FP is just not supported by any evidence except maybe your own personal preferences.I like that it is an admission, by Disney, that FP is a fiasco that apparently causes more problems then it solves. And the old first come first served was then and still is the best system. A few Type A personalities that think that life is a sprint get upset, but, we all have our problems. The fact that FP is necessary is because FP exists. We were all quite happy and had a great time before it raised its ugly head.
You got a quote for that incredulous claim?
You guys could win the award for myopic. I have stated that what I post is my opinion over and over and over again. So I make a statement on what their action means in my reality, and instead of telling me and everyone else how it is the greatest thing since sliced bread, you decide to ask me for written proof that what I have seen and experienced over the past 35 years is not legitimate because you don't agree. OK, I guess that is an argument that cannot be won by either of us.Here we go again. Just because you don't like FP (and that's fine, I get that), doesn't mean it's a fiasco.
