    Guardians of the Galaxy Mission Breakout

    We actually just had something to this effect at the Orlando Science Center, it's called PolyCon. Considering how much effort the city of Orlando is putting into trying to make us into a tech hub, that might be a good idea...

    Snake on Space Mtn

    Not sure if this is because of the necroposting, but this thread was in the promoted ad threads at the bottom of another page. Might want to have the webmasters look into that--I'm seeing a TON of old, dead threads stuck between the ads on those banners.

    News Round Up 2016

    I'm not a collector but I do eBay resales on the side so I joined the FB groups to get a sense of what people wanted...and holy cannoli, were people PISSED about this set. Bright side, many many many folks are going to line up to have them shipped to them ;) Anyway, back to our regularly...

    News? Fantasyland Tsum Tsums drop at the parks today, commence the angry mobs of people who were told it was an app exclusive when they sold out.

    News Round Up 2016

    I'm rolling on the floor because I was a German language minor in college. And yes, DAS as in Disability Access. Sometimes I feel like I'm on a throne, most of the time it's just a necessity...y'all do NOT want to be around me if I get stuck in a line for too long.

    Or...y'know...we could all just wait in line like everyone else. Meanwhile, I'll sit on my throne and watch while I'm waiting for my DAS return time ;) /sarcasm

    News Round Up 2016

    As much of a TLM fan as I am, I really wish they'd replace this. It's a nice break from the heat but it's just so technically dated compared to most of the other shows in the parks. It might have looked super cool in the 90s...

    Universal's 3rd theme park (Universal and WB close to a deal)

    Uhhhhh, I'm pretty sure Six Flags is contracted with DC and Looney Tunes. Both sets of characters/IPs appear in their parks. I guess it could be possible to restrict the usage to FL, comparable to the Marvel contracts between Disney and Uni. Without a good source I'm wary about this. (I...

    I was gonna say...I'm from NE and none of us would be deterred by rocks. We need the fence ;) Yeah, the funny part is that Wi-Fi is your best bet for an accurate GPS location in that game...so if you give up on the slow Disney Wi-Fi and use data, you may very well be shown as standing in the...

    PizzeRizzo opens this fall!

    Yeah, the pizza technology may have been cool at the start (does this one even use Pizzafari's fast pizza machines??) but damn, that food is NASTY. And the 'arcade' part sucked, too. If they were going to stick to the original Pizza Planet theme I would have loved to see more/better games.

    They better be ready to order quite a few of these. The $35 should more than cover the cost if someone doesn't return theirs, but that looks more like a souvenir to some than it does a rental.

    You'd be surprised what the rates of diagnosed and undiagnosed disorders like anxiety are among Gen Y and Z. If anything, most of them are applying the principles of adaptive technology (channeling anxiety and forming relationships/communicating with people through the Internet instead of in the...

    News Round Up 2016

    Just a quick PSA, some of the folks you see 'glued' to their phones at the parks are using them as assistive technology and/or alternative communication devices. Like yours truly (autistic, constant need to stim, phone lets me do it without offending your standards of 'good behaviour'). I'm also...

    News Round Up 2016

    Alright, alright. Everyone should learn how to drive safely. In my experience it's been an equal mix of locals so 'used to' the roads that they make poor decisions and tourists who don't understand that just because you passed under the Disney gate doesn't mean you can cross 4 lanes of traffic...

    Only if you plan on taking the train between the two parks. There are HP areas in each and they are included with regular admission.

    Well, damn. Spirit at it again with the truth bombs. My AP renewal window just opened and I'm finding myself weighing my options for the first time since moving here. There's a chance I won't have to pay to get in to Universal or SeaWorld this coming year (if you get my drift, I just got my...

    News Round Up 2016

    I must be in a different universe, because my 'casual' is stopping at my apartment off of 192 after work to feed the cat and then zipping off to the parks for some snacks and fireworks. Twice weekly most of the time.

    I agree with this as well. Although Sprinkles is crap. Waited in quite the line on opening weekend for my free cupcake and it tasted completely off. Haven't been back since but I wonder how big the crowds are now that the hype has passed.

    News Round Up 2016

    Think of Disney Springs this way: Those big ol' groups of foreign tourists with the matching shirts LOVE shopping. They'll usually hit the outlets by the busload no matter which park they're visiting. Most of them aren't even price-conscious. They bring extra suitcases to stuff full of crap...
