FYI: More Cuts Coming

[JimmyV]

I'll be going down again in April to interview for a few off property spas.

Good luck! I'd offer you Pixie Dust, but I think that is now being rationed.

without documentation this is all rumor and gossip though right?

There have been cast members and family of cast members coming on here and confirming the cuts.

@Isildur's Bane is just being sarcastic ... It was another poster who said this thread was gossip due to no known confirmation by Disney.

There have been plenty of real-world reports regarding this sad situation for the CMs.

I've actually seen only one or the other before. We had to really think about which one it was, because we couldn't compare their noses. So, they have appeared without each other in the past.

Just think "Chocolate Chip." Brown nose = Chip. That's how I remember!

 

[Isildur's Bane]

they both look brown to me I guess im a color-blind

I remember chip and dale, 1 and 2, 1 tooth and 2 teeth....I guess I am better with numbers than colors lol

But what if I like DARK chocolate chips in my chocolate chip cookies?

Then I like your style, because I love dark chocolate!

What you actually said is that you have been going for 30 years and that "there's WAY more to do now than there used to be." You didn't say that there is way more to do now than there was 30 years ago. The implication of what you wrote, ("used to be"), covers the entire time period.

Actually:

I've been going for 30 years, and I find the parks (both coasts) to be better now than when I was a kid. I've loved them all along, but there's WAY more to do now than there used to be.

You left that part out. It's pretty clear what "used to be" referenced here. Quoting out of the full context isn't always fair.

Dang - that WAS sneaky. So sneaky I didn't even catch it. These election years, and every gets all rogue with their quotes and stuff!!

Thanks for the assist.

Not necessarily large but tiered pricing most likely.

That would be a large price increase. If they do tiered pricing (or digital ticket booths/books) especially with all these cutbacks, they're practically begging a lot of people to stop going. And at that point a lot of people will. Disney acts like they don't have competition but they do.

That's just how ignorant Disney is.

Now I really don't know how much this will actually decrease attendance though. Those once in a lifetimers are still going to come. This will hurt veterans by even then a lot of them will also still come.

They were only known as the Rescue Rangers for limited run TV shows produced for 5 years (1988-1993.)

Most guests have never seen them as the Rescue Rangers.

They would be a lot easier to tell apart though.

They're hoping you'll be so dazzled by the tiering that you won't remember what you paid last year. I mean LOOK at how much less bronze could be than gold! Just forget what you paid last year........

And how the heck does this compute over a multi day ticket? What if I bought a multi-day ticket with certain days in mind but someone got sick and we wanted to switch days around?

This has the potential to be very interesting.

You're a stickler, eh? Thanks for the correction. I'll be sure to submit my posts for senior review henceforth.

Oh yea, Cranium Command was cool. I liked that too!! And what was the one where you got shrunk in the microscope and explored the body? That was a fun ride also. I loved imagining those little plastic ride cars and people on the other side of the thing were real.

I believe it was Body Wars. That was one of my favorite rides when first visiting in 1992!

No, for as long as I know MSEP has run twice a night, before and after the fireworks. DHS doesn't run a 2nd fantasmic every night anyways it only does so during heavier crowds. Even with fireworks at DHS they still ran two fantasmic's during the summer (frozen fireworks).

Our first trip in October 1999-- the fireworks and parade were only on Saturdays nights in MK. We had to add a night onto our trip in order to see them, as we'd planned to leave on Saturday.

The attraction with the miniature ride vehicles seen coming from a giant microscope was at Disneyland,
and it was named Adventure Through Inner Space. (CLICK.)
Guests rode in Onmimover vehicles (just like Haunted Mansion's "Doombuggies") and got
"shrunken down" to explore the molecules of ice.

Paul Frees (Haunted Mansion's Ghost Host) was the narrator for Inner Space.
"Dare I grow SMALLER?"

Nope. Body Wars (in Epcot's Wonders of Life pavilion) was a similar attraction,
but it was based on the same ride simulator vehicles used at Star Tours.
The Body Wars film starred Tim Matheson and Elisabeth Shue.

Oh yeah!! I remember both fondly. I didn't know Paul Frees was the narrator for Inner Space. Its cool how they use the same people for different attractions, movies, roles, etc.

And, Adv. thru Inner Space PRE-DATED Haunted Mansion...
So, we were used to hearing "that VOICE" narrating a creepy attraction years before the Ghost Host came along.

Another interesting thing about "Inner Space" was that it was back when Disneyland had "tickets" to ride each attraction.
So, after you used up your tickets, if you wanted to ride more rides, you had to buy more tickets.

But, "Inner Space" was sponsored by the Monsanto (Chemical) Company and it was one of the very few FREE rides (no ticket needed) at Disneyland, so many guests (me, included) lined up to ride it again and again at no charge. FUN!!
