Disneyland Reopening Speculation Superthread

[bassgirl]

Does anybody here really think it's a coincidence that Newsom has a "special announcement" after last weeks craziness?

Keep those hopes in check folks. A special announcement could be anything. Maybe EDD is working again? Today is the first day it was supposed to be up and running for new unemployment claims after the two week closure.

After looking into Madame Leoda's crystal ball, I predict that the governor's special announcement will be more about wildfires and less about COVID-19 restrictions.

Saw this article! Pretty sure this is a general consensus amongst people who have gone to DTD..

I think I'll just check here at 12 when he begins his update. Watching the updates gives me anxiety lol

To be fair, that would be a pretty special announcement to anyone who's been waiting for their unemployment checks to kick in since who knows when.

I agree. I think it's going to be "we've processed all backlogged EDD claims"

For the only time in my life I wish I'd followed CA politics a little bit more so I could analyze the language here of "special announcement" to determine the odds of what it could be lol

About a year and a half ago, we FINALLY went on the canoes. After that, I wish that we'd done the canoes on every trip! True, you have to row and it is a little bit of a work out. BUT it's an amazing experience. A peaceful and wonderful tour of the Rivers of America from a totally different point of view.

The Canoes are one of my favorite "rides" and a highlight of each of our trips!

I have my hopper set to 'autotune' at noon to a local network. But I expect as others have said that it's going to be about the EDD backlog.

And please don't shoot me, but I honestly think that an announcement that 'the checks are in the mail' is more important than theme park guidelines. We want to go to DL but people need to pay their bills, including those who were sadly let go by Disney last week.

PS I do get the correlation of reopening and people getting back to their theme park jobs.

I brought them into the convo as it’s pretty big news here in CA- but I’m starting to feel that’s not it. EDD isn’t a bright spot...

I would consider this bad news about opening soon... Disney opening Stage 17 for more retail space at DTD.

I wouldn't go that far. Even if they reopen there will be capacity restrictions at DTD, so this would help spread out crowds. I think they just saw an empty space and long lines at DTD, so might as well use it.

At first I thought this was bad news, but given this is a “seasonal” merchandise pop up, they are probably trying to unload as much Halloween merch in this last month as possible, given they probably overstocked thinking they’d have been able to sell this in the parks and the capacity is restricted in WoD to sell as much as there is demand for right now.

[TikiTikiFan]

Ughhhhhh I can't sit and watch another one of these. So this has nothing to do with theme parks then?
