jray21 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) He could scan each guest as they enter and if they are not vaccinated, they aren't allowed in! He could say, "I'm sorry, your parents are idiots, you cannot enter the park." Edited January 15, 2015 by jray21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Maybe Disney can sell measles vaccinations using Olaf-shaped syringes. Maybe they could build a real Baymax to keep everyone healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Maybe Disney can sell measles vaccinations using Olaf-shaped syringes. Now I'm picturing all the Disney princesses dressed as nurses. Can't really say I dislike that idea... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disneyphilip Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Long time lurker, first time poster... I REALLY wish MiceChat would stop with their lies. One such lie on my mind is one where they say Toontown will be replaced by a Star Wars Land. To make matters worse, Jim Hill, WDW1974, Lee MacDonald and other such untrustworthy sources have perpetuated that lie. Besides, DL cannot get rid of Toontown. Not only is it popular (especially with kids), but it's also landlocked combined with the fact that it has to close early every night for the fireworks. They also just introduced new costumes for Toontown's cast members, further discrediting MiceChat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only western state not affected by the Measleland Virus. Yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the Condor Flats re-theme has been common knowledge for some time. And let's go a bit easy on MiceChat here, OK Disneyphilip? You come across like someone with an ax to grind--time to put the ax away. Rumors are typical in the theme-park circles, particularly where Disney is concerned.

DoubleDown Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Is Toon Town still kinda run down and discolored from the sun? The last time I went to DL and brought a lady back there just to see how it was doing, she wanted to leave immediately. I have no clue, it might be great for the kids, but I remember when it was new. But it was almost the most run down part of the park and I had no problem getting out of there as soon as we entered. It's become like the unwanted stepchild to the park. It's a weird part of the park that closes early for fireworks, but I see it as a great opportunity to create something amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COASTER FREAK 11 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 It has gotten lots of new paint the past few years. But there are still some areas that don't look the best. Honestly the worst part about Toon Town is that its a shell of its former self. Almost all the cool thanks that made that place fun are gone.

Wingwright Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Long time lurker, first time poster... I REALLY wish MiceChat would stop with their lies. One such lie on my mind is one where they say Toontown will be replaced by a Star Wars Land. Personally, I enjoy the MiceChat rumor mill. It's entertaining to read their wild speculation and funny to see them worry at the thought of slight changes. I don't take theme park rumors seriously. Luckily for you they are pretty easy to ignore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBJ Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Toontown isn't amazingly vibrant. While I like Roger's, I can see them targeting that area for demolition eventually. The standby line is one of the best themed in the entire park, but it is low capacity with those ride vehicles. And the kids are not running around with Roger Rabbit merchandise, but certainly are with Star Wars and Marvel. I can see why it might make sense to do a star wars land there, the Toontown area could close for years and not impact the park. The height balloons did go up, and it is probably just a first step to see how the skyline would change at DL when they do decide to drop in a new themed land. I would not expect anything significant to happen to the park for at least 5 years or more. Unless USH manages to impact the attendance at DL with Harry Potter, I don't see the parks in an huge rush to build out another massive project for a long time.

I can see why it might make sense to do a star wars land there, the Toontown area could close for years and not impact the park. That's not a valid reason to do it. Besides, Toontown is landlocked, popular and it always has to close early every night for fireworks. The area is also too small for something as grand as Star Wars. And they already have Star Tours in Tomorrowland. The height balloons did go up, and it is probably just a first step to see how the skyline would change at DL when they do decide to drop in a new themed land. I would not expect anything significant to happen to the park for at least 5 years or more. Unless USH manages to impact the attendance at DL with Harry Potter, I don't see the parks in an huge rush to build out another massive project for a long time. Height balloons mean nothing. More likely, they were just testing them for the new fireworks shows. It's common sense that Toontown will not leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jew Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 ^Aside from that, if they were going to replace Toontown with what would surely be a costly Star Wars land (I think it is safe to assume that project would easily cross the $100 million+ budget line), a couple million dollars to keep the costumes of Toontown up to current park standards for a few years until ready to close the land is a very small investment for a company as large as Disney. Again, I honestly have no idea what is or is not coming to Disneyland. Just saying that updating uniforms is hardly a reason to assume nothing will become of Toontown.

coasternate Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Driving to Disney now, on a field trip. Leadership event thing going on tomorrow. I'll be there from around lunch time until closing at midnight. How crowded would you expect it to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
