I really don't understand all these complaints about crowds at the Xmas and Halloween parties. Aren't almost all of the parties sell outs or very close to it? I'm almost certain the day we went it was sold out. And most everything was a walkon.
Sure, the ride lines are short, but all the "Special" attractions are insane. The Halloween party we were there for almost the full 5 hours and all we managed to do were meet the dwarves, get a picture in front of the haunted mansion, ride THREE rides, see the parades and fireworks and meet Minnie, Mickey and Princesses. We spent nearly $200 for character meets and parades and fireworks. It was BY FAR the biggest crowds we had all week. We didn't wait for a regular ride more than about 10 minutes all week. What advantage is it to pay an extra couple hundred dollars for no waits, when we were practically walking on during the day.
I made the mistake of trying again with MVMCP in 2013. It was much less crowded than the halloween party, and we avoided the character stuff, but it didn't help that our DD (10 at the time) had a breakdown at about 7:30 PM.(Not Disney's fault) We got her calmed down, but at 9 PM we went to the hub to try and see the castle projection show after the parade, and it was so packed with people we couldn't even move, and you couldn't get close enough to even see the show. It was TERRIBLE. She had another breakdown and that was it. DW took her home. I hung around to do a few rides. That was the LAST time I will do a hard ticket event. The LAST.
The eating areas were filthy garbage everywhere. The buildings were in dire need of a paint job. The rides look like they haven't been touched since they were put in. Then Goliath the brand new tallest fastest steepest wooden roller coaster was closed the entire day because of difficulties.
I wouldn't want giant metal coasters in a Disney park it just doesn't feel Disney to me. RnRc works well because of the theme and it being indoor.Agreed there is no park like a Disney park in terms of theming and cleanliness and getting the full experience. I do wish Disney would take a little from the Six Flags side and put in a few giant thrill rides into their parks. There's no reason to think this would take away from the Disney experience and I imagine they'd spruce them up and theme it up so much it would be amazing. I feel like they did this really well with the Aerosmith coaster at DHS. Just wish there was a ride or two like that in all their parks.

EE is indoor and outdoor. I'm interested to see how tron coaster in Shanghai works out that is indoor and outdoor as well.I understand where you're coming from, I trust Disney enough that they could pull it off without it taking away anything from the park. Maybe they could make a half indoor/half outdoor coaster. Or even some of their ideas from the past that were almost built like Fire and Bald Mountain would do the job. Just new a few more at each park.
The article made it seem as if the my magic+ system is brand new in the beginning. There didn't seem to be anything new in the article either. Disneyland VP was quoted by the LAtimes that they would not be using magic bands because of their local base. She didn't rule out fastpass+ tho.http://www.digitaltrends.com/wearab...ans-to-expand-its-smart-wristband-technology/
Here's an interesting read
The kids clubs on the cruise ships already use yellow bands that look basically the same as magic bands as tracking for their clubs. They don't perform any other functions on the ships yet.I think the cruise ships is the most logical place to be next in line to switch to Magic Bands.
