  1. Even if someone isn't a religious person, Disney certainly acknowledges that many who visit their parks are......So whether you believe or not, at least Disney supports everyone. Be it religious or not, gay or straight, etc... When you enter the Disney kingdom you get to ESCAPE into a magical world, free from politics, agendas, and the stress of most our lives....Thank God this Oasis from our reality exists. Walt created something wonderful for all of us to enjoy.
  2. Great Report! Living in California, I so miss the People Mover! The track is still there at Disneyland to remind us of its former glory. Disney goes all out on the candy, Twix, Snickers etc... not just a bunch of cheap junk like Smarties and gumballs etc... Your candy haul should suffice for some time. : )
  3. Well I use facebook 99% of the time. The only reason I even signed up for twitter was to follow some of TPR posts, but I almost never use it otherwise.
  4. ^So sad to hear that he has died! I grew up with his music, and have always enjoyed his older and newer releases. I regret never having the chance to see him perform live. Damn it! Rest in peace Michael, you'll be missed. Thanks Nrthwnd for posting a great compilation of his musical work.
  5. ^^^acleverclone, Thanks for posting your your video! It was a amazing to see the parks thru your eyes. It's efforts like this, that make me log into TPR almost daily. Great Job!
  6. ^Yes I agree, I've attended Disneyland when it was a MAX capacity, and it can be a bit daunting. The hard working Disney cast members attempt to use their glow sticks to guide the massive crowds to go in a certain direction. (even if someone wants to do the complete opposite) To help keep the public moving in a certain 'safe' direction. Unfortunately do to its original design, there are limitations placed on the Disneyland Park regardless of how money they invest in improvements. With the latest Disney parks, they have incorporated these capacity issues into the design of the park. But with the iconic Disneyland they have to make do with the design elements from 60 years ago. (Walt never could have imagined that 15+ million people would be visiting Disneyland each year) Regardless, even on those high capacity days, the issues mainly come at night with the combination of the fireworks and Fantasmic crowds, and Disney has a procedure in place that works well enough. (Even if it upsets some guests) Like any other theme park, Disney will do what it can to keep its patrons happy within the design limitations of the park.
  7. What I can't wait to see is the new interior. The boiler room now looks ok, but I can only imagine what the Imagineers will transform that into. (Some of the early draft images look great so far) Since I really enjoyed that movie, I think this change will be a nice update to DCA.
  8. Well the Walt Disney Company has plenty of financial resources to infuse into their Theme Parks if the choose to do so. They have a smart group of executives who know how much they need to invest in capital expenditures for maximum benefits for the parks. The TOT overlay is a smaller capital expense, the Star Wars land is a major long term (future growth) expense. They know that the public is going to visit their theme parks in large numbers for years to come no matter what they do......... What's interesting in terms of (MAJOR) capital expenses, is that the Disney is apparently in the running for the acquisition of social media giant Twitter. (Which Robb has been talking about on another thread) The cost to add Twitter to the Disney company has been estimated in the $20 BILLION range! Wow! Disney would likely want to acquire Twitter to appeal to the 'Digital Audiences' aka younger people.....But that's a rich price to pay for Twitter which doesn't currently earn much or any profit at this point???
  9. The Red Sox just clinched their 3rd division title in 10 years! Last year they finished in DEAD last place.........This year the division title! That's an amazing accomplishment for any team. This is David Ortiz final season, perhaps it will be his greatest accomplishment! Bring on the post season.......and no doubt the Cub's!
  10. Great Report! Looks like everyone had a cool time at the WCB! Living here in Socal I've had many In-N-Out Double Doubles over the years. There certainly hot and fresh off the grill when you get it, but there are others I like better such as the Habit, or Smash burger. (In-N-Out really gets them on $$$ price.) As for the Bible Scriptures I'd say they could have a possible subliminal effect on TPR members. I see a lot of 'Praying" on this site. People pray for those who have a bad incident at a park, they pray good weather, they pray for an awesome visit, and of course new coaster releases they ((so)) want to see! I know it takes a lot of effort on behalf of Robb & Elissa to make a Colossal Event like the WCB to come together. Glad to see it see it go well!
  11. ^Hopefully you found some cool finds in your quest for pins! Thursday should have been a good day to go to the parks, the crowds should have been lighter than other days.
  12. ^^I've always enjoyed the classic 'Dark' version of Space Mountain myself. But, I would assume that after Halloween has passed that Disney would likely switch back to the Hyperspace Mountain. Mainly because of the upcoming December 16th release of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Disney is a master at promotions, and this tie in/cross promotion may be to good to pass up.
  13. Well Disney tolerates the various hotels on Harbor, because they have to. Those hotels provide zero revenue to Disney, yet they thrive because of Disney. But Disney can't go complete commando on the Harbor hotels, so they'll offer some type of side entry which will likely involve a long line/wait. Thus encouraging those guests to perhaps stay at a Disney hotel on their future visits.
  14. Well I feel for Six Flags..... Do you know how much it cost just to paint a house!? It's ridiculous! Never mind some ((massive)) steel beast rollercoaster! It looks great when then do it, but I guess the cost can be extreme!
