Added the video to the report!

A video message from Jack... Yes, Jack!!! He has been able to talk for the last 24 hours and he's doing GREAT! But he still needs your help! Please share his GoFundMe: www.gofundme.com/jackcrouse [youtu_be] [/youtu_be]

Ok people... SERIOUSLY! I've now received about 200 messages from people via email and social media letting me know there are spam PMs. WE KNOW ABOUT IT!!!! The messages that you all are sending me are now having more of a negative impact than the spam itself!!!! And look, we get it. You guys want to help. And we appreciate that. But if you want to help, please do something like buy one of Jack's photo prints which the money will be donated to his GoFundMe to help the family: http://www.themeparkreview.com/store/index.php?categoryID=4

Still getting messages about this every day... I really hope people see this! lol Bumping it...

Hey everyone - While we greatly appreciate your concern and letting us know about the private message spam, we have taken care of it and there is no need to send us messages letting us know you received it. I've received at least 100 messages tonight about the spam message and trust me, we are on top of it and we have deleted all the accounts. Our moderating team is very good at catching spammers, but sometimes things slip through the cracks. Again, it's all been taken care of. Thanks for your understanding. --Robb EDIT: Ok people...

Here's a short Smiler video from Craig's recent visit to the park:

New Jack Crouse update posted. Please take the time to read this: https://www.gofundme.com/jackcrouse

It really does make you question whether or not these more "open face" trains are a good idea. I get that there is more of a thrill element, but isn't that "thrill element" the fear that you could die if you collided with something? Perhaps it's not such a smart design move... I mean, what would happen if two of those B&M floorless trains collided?

Here's the latest Jack Crouse update! Please remember you can still buy his poster-sized prints at the TPR Store and all proceeds will be donated to his GoFundMe! http://www.themeparkreview.com/store/index.php?categoryID=4

^ Thank you! To give you all an update on Jack... Along with the daily updates we do on the GoFundMe (www.gofundme.com/jackcrouse) I can tell you that while he IS getting better, there is still a long road to go. He has been moved from one intensive care unit to the other, a slightly less serious IC unit, but still in ICU. He cannot talk yet due to the trach tube in his throat and he still requires a feeding tube that runs through his nose and down to his stomach to get nourishment. He's in better spirits as he's not drugged up as much and each day he seems to be doing incrementally better. His lung X-Rays are still showing signs of improvement, slowly, but there is still a ways to go. He is on day 49 in the hospital which will have a significant impact on his family. If you have not yet donated to his GoFundMe, please click the link above, or you can also purchase some of the poster sized photos from Jack we have made available here: http://www.themeparkreview.com/store/index.php?categoryID=4 Thank you for your support!

Here is the 5 minute preview of Rivers of Light they showed to the media last night. This segment comes in the middle of the show we were told...

Yup, and 46" has already been confirmed. Dumb. There is no reason for a ride this tame to have that tall of a height restriction. This ride would have made a PERFECT 40" or 42" ride for the park that families could actually ride. If a 42" kid can ride Phoenix and a 40" kid can ride Tower of Terror please explain to me why a kid needs to be 46" to ride this? Especially when the park is totally LACKING in a ride for this demographic of families.

If you missed out on any of the Jack Crouse photos, we have put more in stock in the TPR Store! Order them now before they are gone again! All proceeds go to Jack's GoFundMe! http://www.themeparkreview.com/store/index.php?categoryID=4

And we have the POV! Huge props to SeaWorld for getting this out so quickly!

Dubai Parks & Resorts released an amazing video (with a familiar face!) Could this park give Disney & Universal a run for their money? I mean.... Dreamworks... Hunger Games... Ghostbusters... Zombieland?!?! HOLY CRAP! Check it out... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-M0Y0CIHNs

If you guys have followed along TPR for any length of time you'd know that we are particularly fond of the restaurants in the Italy pavilion at Epcot! (Via Napoli! YUM!) But we love them all almost equally! Today we got invited to come sample some new summer menu specials for Tutto Italia and have dessert at Tutto Gusto. The photos will tell you all you need to know! Today we will be hanging out at Epcot with lunch at the Italy Pavilion! Going to check out some of the newer characters that have come to Epcot recently before going to lunch... Baymax has been back for a couple of months now... Joy and Sadness just arrived a couple of weeks ago! Only a few more months now until Soarin' opens back up! We have arrived at our lunch in Italy! Love the interior of Tutto Italia - Classy and awesome! This is a new menu that will be available from May 2nd - August 29th. For $27 that is an AMAZING deal! We started out with a little bit of Antipasto. More appetizers! They were all delicious! Entrees have come out and they look GREAT!!! And yes of course there were wine pairings for all entrees! And the bread! Did we mention the bread? No! Now we are! Sooooo good! We were invited over to the "Wine Cellar" for dessert. Tutto Gusto is one of our favorite places in the park. Easy to get into, a bit hidden, always quiet, and a great "hang out" place! We really love the more "secluded" and private feel you get in here. Everything on this plate was just as amazing as it looks! Yes, you can actually get REAL cannolis here! Soooo good! Sampling other desserts available. I'm still a fan of the cannoli, but I love them all! If your summer plans call for Epcot - the restaurants in Italy, especially with the new menu at an insane price should be on your list of places to eat!
