Propane 40%. Tis the season. -- nm - What I always say at work Oct 1, 17:23
What are you expecting they want to see instead? -- nm - znufrii Oct 1, 10:19 11
- I don't think he'd ever really considered it until now. Most people don't. Theme park is akin to Coca-Cola in this regard. - David Oct 1, 10:28 3
  - I only occasionally think about the lineage of "oogielove." -- nm - Barony Bunch Oct 1, 10:29 2
    - WTF is an Oogielove?!? -- nm - znufrii Oct 1, 10:37
    - You're a more disciplined man than me. -- nm - David Oct 1, 10:30
- something we've never seen or experienced before (as was Walt's original vision) - mr mooch Oct 1, 10:27 5
  - The center point and paramount showpiece of Disneyland when it opened was *CINDERELLA'S CASTLE*. The problem with non-IP content... - Mop🧹 Oct 1, 10:36
  - The biggest Disneyland attractions on opening day were Snow White's Scary Adventures, Peter Pan's Flight, and Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. - David Oct 1, 10:30 3
    - and it's not 1955 anymore - mr mooch Oct 1, 10:31 2
      - Hmmm...to this point. There is DisneySea as a possible model -- (edited) - JD Oct 1, 10:48
      - You just moved the goalposts. You said this wasn't what Walt wanted when it's -exactly- what he chose. It's also what a theme park is. - David Oct 1, 10:35
- Rainbow Ridge Pack Mules and Motorboat Cruise - JD Oct 1, 10:25
If it is a Disney trip, well, yeah. I mean the parks themselves are IP. IMO, tis the difference between theme park and thrill/amusement park - JD Oct 1, 10:02
We're going to invest most of that in rebooting the Galactic Starcruiser! Our accountants tell me we weren't charging nearly enough for rooms. -- nm - Josh D'Amaro Oct 1, 09:56
(They are.) -- nm - David Oct 1, 09:40 3
- "mommy, daddy . . . where's all the new IP?!" -- nm - mr mooch Oct 1, 09:43 2
  - But not IP and just general theme parking it and you get the 'new' Tomorrowland and Rocket Rods 8( - JD Oct 1, 10:19 [youtube]
  - They say “Frozen” and “Encanto”, but yes… -- nm - David Oct 1, 09:46
