    Disney Genie announcement

    But that's not socialism. Socialism would be more like some people paying a little more for the Genie+ and everyone gets that distributed benefit. This is quite literally late stage capitalism, where those with money have access to buying out any competition- the competition in this case being...

    Genie Service

    I feel like there's going to be some other perks hidden in the 'more details to come' language.

    Genie Service

    30 minutes early access is great, as is the evening EMH. Why pay for LL/G+ when you're going to get to ride a bunch when a ton of other people can't?

    New MK Tomorrowland Sign

    I just hope it's not done. EDIT: I mean, look at my profile pic . . .

    Am I the only one that is unimpressed with SWGE - where is the juice?

    I don't know if that's true... Satu'li Canteen is everything DB7 should be. There's no reason they can't bring DB7 up to that level, and I suspect they will.

    Am I the only one that is unimpressed with SWGE - where is the juice?

    I do have an interest in doing those things, but $200 is too much. The droid is cool but also too expensive for what it is to me. Your mileage may vary! IMO, WWoHP is much more immersive. You really feel like you’re in a familiar place, with almost everything being recognizable. SWGE feels like...

    Am I the only one that is unimpressed with SWGE - where is the juice?

    I dunno. I just found the whole thing underwhelming. And this is coming from someone who has seen every second of everything Star Wars and can quote the movies, from OT to prequel to the new ones. I liked Hondo in Clone Wars and Rebels. It's fine that he's involved in Smuggler's Run, but to not...

    Lightning Mcqueen's Racing Academy

    Hey, my friend did the art direction on this! I can't wait to go see it.

    Disney Skyliner (Gondola Transportation System) Read Post 1 Now Open!

    Why does everyone seem so happy that these don't have AC?

    Replacing the Rocking roller coaster with Monster Inc ride

    I hate that they took out the Aerosmith music playing in the queue. I think it added so much to the theming. Now, the theme just seems like it's in limbo. At this point, I think they might as well change it. I just hope it's good enough to live up to how good RnR is. I love Aerosmith and will be...

    Extra magic MORNING hours; are they worth it?

    I would say it depends on the park. If you're doing DHS or DAK, it's not any different than any other rope drop strategy. It doesn't save you much time at DHS because there are so few attractions open. So, IMO, it's exactly like being there at a regular rope drop. For DAK, it's a great way to...

    "Redd" Joins The Pirates

    Put a chicken in a red wig. "We wants the redhead!" Problem solved.

    "Redd" Joins The Pirates

    Looks great. Shouldn't be offensive or triggering to anyone. I like it.

    Mission space blech!

    I love it. My wife loves it. We'll ride it over Test Track and Soarin' any time.

    Jan 2018 wait times longer than Summer 2017: Disney reduced ride capacity

    He never said it was absolutely true or even for sure. He clearly said that he's not really serious when he says that. But the motivation is really a bit irrelevant. What matters to all of us, ultimately, is how it affects our Disney vacations. And they're working to provide us all some answers...

    Jan 2018 wait times longer than Summer 2017: Disney reduced ride capacity

    I don't know, either. It may be something as simple as having multiple cast members there to direct loading and unloading procedures. Maybe someone like a former cast member can help shed light on the situation. So, unless you think that the Touring Plans crew is wrong in their hourly count...

    Jan 2018 wait times longer than Summer 2017: Disney reduced ride capacity

    I'm not sure how they'd lower capacity on omnimovers, but it's fairly easy to lower capacity on other rides by simply taking boats/cars out of the rotation. So, just because you don't see empty boats doesn't mean they can't increase capacity by adding more. It might mean that they've taken boats...

    Jan 2018 wait times longer than Summer 2017: Disney reduced ride capacity

    I don't think Len's main source of income is the books. There is a LOT of information on the Touring Plans site you CANNOT see here. There are a lot of features on his site beyond some book sales.

    Do Christmas decorations still mean Christmas music everywhere?

    Hey all! I haven't been to the parks in Nov/December in a really long time. We really enjoy the decorations, but the last time we went, after about day 2, we were REALLY sick of the Christmas music everywhere in all the parks (soooo repetitive) and we missed the regular background loops. Do they...
