    DHS New eats arrive at Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant on April 1

    Disney is still suffering from a decade of hiring based on factors other than merit. All of the quality employees and mangers have since left. When you push virtue signaling BS over quality the whole company suffers. Hence the stock being worth less than it was decade ago even before you adjust...

    MK Piston Peak and Villains Land Construction Thread

    Remember in 2024 D'Amaro told us that the plans were done and shovels were already in the ground on all of this? 2 years later and all we have confirmed is Cars IP whizzing by the Haunted Mansion and removal of beautiful sight lines across water.

    Rumor Pre-Arrival Survey - AP Discounts, Lightning Lane Pre-Booking Discounts, Hotel Upgrades

    Yes it was when Iger and the board forced Staggs out that things started going downhill at the parks/resorts.

    News Disney World Landscaping Cleanup Underway After January Cold Outbreak

    It's been awfully cold, I wish there was something humans could do to warm up the planet as cold weather kills thousands of people per year.

    Rumor Pre-Arrival Survey - AP Discounts, Lightning Lane Pre-Booking Discounts, Hotel Upgrades

    Disney should focus on providing the Disney Difference again, and work to have the best experience possible instead of everything they have been doing since Iger forced out Staggs. The company is worth less than it was a decade ago under Iger's leadership, so the day he leaves can't come soon...

    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    The Walt Disney Corporation is worth less than it was a decade ago (after adjusting for inflation). Iger had destroyed billions in company value, and yet they pay him that much.

    News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland Gets Darth Vader in Major Timeline Expansion

    Kathleen convinced him that kids would be asking for the new characters, when in reality I have yet to meet a single human ever who has liked anything Disney Star Wars outside of Andor (and maybe Rogue One/Mando). Kathleen Kennedy legitimate lost Disney billions in opportunity cost. Bob Iger...

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass

    The parks used to stay open much later, sometimes even to 3am back then though. Plus there were extra Magic Hours almost every day cycling through all 4 parks. Now parks close early and they only have one or two extra magic hours per week. So people feel they are more busy now because there...

    Walt Disney World 2026: All New Attractions, Festivals, and Events in One Guide

    3 or 4 refurbishments... that's literally it. The fact that Bob Iger pushed out Tom Staggs will go down in history as one of the worst leadership moves in business history.

    EPCOT Remy's Ratatouille Adventure to transition to 2D with brief refurbishment in November 2025

    I think I can actually see what is intended (of course you never really know), but it always looks like crap to me. I would much rather watch 2D. There is a reason 3D TVs never took off.

    EPCOT Remy's Ratatouille Adventure to transition to 2D with brief refurbishment in November 2025

    The lines for like the past decade are built so that wheelchairs can go through them. They are literally designing them for accessibility.

    EPCOT Remy's Ratatouille Adventure to transition to 2D with brief refurbishment in November 2025

    100% disagree that 3D is more immersive. You have to wear these glasses where it is hard to see because its dark and your peripheral vision is non-existent. With 2D your are in the experience without having to look through these tiny portals. Plus the 3D always looks bad anyways. Soarin' is was...

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    The nickel and diming, along with not giving any benefits for staying on site is the main reason Disney has lost me as a customer. I used to go annually, but now had not been in almost 4 years.

    DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    Wait what? They don't actually have the story of the ride done yet? Shouldn't that be done BEFORE deciding to remove an existing fan beloved ride to make sure it is a positive change? Who the heck is running this company lol

    MK New Beak and Barrel - Pirates of the Caribbean-themed lounge

    They should have built an actual good restaurant at a park with horrible food options instead of a bar with overpriced tortilla chips... The theming is great, but they could have easily expanded to the west a bit towards the train tracks to make a medium sized restaurant with the same theming .
