YIKES!!! I was wrong!! There is whining going on here at the DIS!! But it aint about Disney!! Its about our ROTTEN teams!! And I feel your pain!! And Im sure you can feel mine!!!!LB- Please do not try and whine about the Cubs. I have to deal with the Red Sox.
Yep!! Thats they way I remember it too. Thats one of the reasons I always went to WDW during the summer even when I wasnt forced into it because of school schedules. It has always been a conscience decision. I like the twinkle!!Back in the 'Good Ole Days' during off season there were NEVER fireworks or night time parades in MK.
Yep!! Again, just as I remember.In the 90's with attendance up Disney started to do these night time activities during the week and weekends.
Well I dont agree with the premise, but I see your point.Now with attendance down they have reduced the night time entertainment.
I know you had a point here and perhaps it was a little unfair of me. But I have been accused many times, and not only by you, of remembering the past with rose-colored-glasses. Thats why I took EVERY sentence in your paragraph and quoted it. Just to show you that Im on the same page as you. That I remember the same things as you. And that the past doesnt seem rosier than it really was, only rosier than today!!See the 'Good ole days' are never as good as it seems. Time makes things seem better than they were.
Now Dave, I dont want to split hairs but its real important to consider just what I say in my posts and what you might have inferred, that wasnt implicitly stated.
I never, or at least not without much qualification, ever talk about hours other than Summer Hours!! Why? Cause I dont know squat about them, thats why!!! But I do know summer hours. I know them well!! I AM AN EXPERT!! I promise you! And my memory on the subject is absolutely impeccable!!
Yeah! Im inclined to agree with you. But that just points to more knuckleheadedness. If they cared one whit about the Disney Experience they would know how important planning is to optimize that experience!! But they dont care!! Or worse yet, they dont know!! Remember!! Our friend, the guy Ei$ner picked to head the parks, our own Paul Pre$$ler NEVER set foot inside a Disney park until he got the job there. Now thats someone who I trust with the SHOW!!!I say POSTING because I can almost gaurantee these will be extended
Neither do I!! I think we need A thru E and in EPCOT a couple of Fs (long, pavilion style)!! But I still have a problem with Dinorama. Not its size or scope. Its simply that it is NOT Disney. Now, you cant have seen it and claim that Disney has had anything to do with it. Please Dave!! I enjoy the talk, but in order to enjoy the talk I have to think there is some logic and intelligence behind it!! And if you say youve seen Dino-rama and think, for one single solitary second, that it is within Disney standards wellI do not have an issue with building C ticket rides - spinners for the kids and DinoRama.
Luckily, I think I know you better than that. It is the concept you dont mind. Me too. That of B, C or even a small D ticket ride or attraction. And I agree!! And can we also agree that they failed miserably in the implementation of this concept? WHEW!!! GOOD! Then we can go on!!
OK!! Just so you recognize this yourself!! Were all allowed our guilty pleasures!! Mine is that stupid, doesnt fit in anywhere in EPOCT cooling station!! I CANT WALK BY IT WITHOUT STOPPING IN!!! Its like Disney heroin for me!! When Im in EPCOT I NEED A FIX!!!yes Test Track ( I know I will hear about this one!)
Can we save this for another day? I heard grumbling and the mention of tar and feathers if the LandBaron brings up this Caste System again!!! And that was from the backseat of Car #3!!!!Also I do not see the issue with building all the hotels.
TOO MUCH INFORMATION!!!!I am also going to come out of the closet
WHAT!!!! After all this and were on the same page!!!It is time for Eisner to go. When Wall Street is questioning the leadership then nothing good can come of it - even if you might be the right person to turn it around.
I feel like Allen Sherman!! Mother, Father, kindly disregard this letter!
