Marathon Weekend 2019

So, Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin vs. Toy Story Midway Mania, who ya got?

I do love both but I’m going with Toy Story Mania. Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin needs a good refurb/Update. Everyone version built since is better.

Bonus Sunday Question: Which Disney character would you pick to perform at half time? I’m going with Elsa. She can sing and do some cool ice stuff. Plus, she’d handle Minnesota just fine.

I like the Genie answer. I’m gonna go with Moana. She can do some fun stuff with water.

1st Sunday Question: TSMM.

Bonus Sunday Question: Merlin. Who doesn't love a real magician?

TSMM because of the variety of the games!

 

[goingthedistance]

Sundays are for Disney: I enjoy Toy Story a bit more, but I haven't been on that ride in a couple of years. Once Toy Story Land opens back up, DHS will be worth the time and effort. I stayed away from DHS this year (except for during the marathon) because of the construction.

Bonus question: The Genie is a good answer, but I'm going to go with the Fab 5 even though it's more than one character. Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto would put together a way better show than Justin Timberlake. It would be funny, classic, kid-friendly, memorable, and bring out the kid in all of us. If I had to pick just one of them, it would be Goofy and his old-school football and sports watching "how to" videos.

Buzz for the win from me.

Bonus: How about Sorcerer Mickey with a side of Donald messing it up!

 

[camaker]

I like the variety of TSMM over Buzz. If only the lines were shorter. DW and I accidentally ended up at DCA rope drop during our DL trip last year and were able to walk onto TSMM twice. It was great!

I’ll go with Genie for my halftime entertainment choice. The variety he can bring tips the scales for me.

I’m not very competitive, but something about Toy Story Midway Mania brings it out of me. It’s a physical challenge as much as a gaming challenge, and it’s exhilarating. I LOVE busting my butt to win (and gloating about it).

Edit: I hate football and I have zero interest in watching the halftime show, so I think it would be best not to mix it with something I like.

 

[ZellyB]

TSMM for the win. I like Buzz but the fun and targets just don’t work as well for me.

Bonus: I’m going old school. Dumbo because, hello? Flying elephant!

Oh yes Dumbo is my favorite!!!!

They're both great, but I gotta go Toy Story. I like that there are different things to shoot and it's not just targets that all look the same.

Bonus Sunday Question: Which Disney character would you pick to perform at half time? I’m going with Elsa. She can sing and do some cool ice stuff. Plus, she’d handle Minnesota just fine.

I'm going with Sebastian. Give me some "Under the Dome." (Do the Vikings play in a dome? I cant remember. Apparently I know nothing about football, like those contestants on Jeopardy! ... except that I actually got some of those questions right).

Yes they play inside. That Jeopardy was hilarious!

 

[Baloo in MI]

Sunday’s are for Disney: I consider myself a bit of a marksman. So I always get too serious on Buzz and TSMM and end up getting uptight because I can sight my marks on Buzz until we are half done on the ride. Then I end up being the guy complaining about how it wasn’t fair... So I am going with TSMM. Honestly when I simply stop trying to be some great shooter and remember it is for fun in Disney I really enjoy both.

Bonus: I am going with Tiana. I can see her putting on a real Jazzy stage show. Maybe next year when the Saints finally return to the Super Bowl she would be perfect! Yeah, I’m not over the “Minnesota Miracle” yet...

 

[bevcgg]

Sunday's are for Disney

Going for Buzz- mostly because I have been able to ride that WAY more often than Toy Story!!!
Love a good shoot out with family members!

Bonus: Maleficent and her Dragon alter ego.
That would be a show to see!

 

[run.minnie.miles]

SAFD: I can occasionally beat my husband at Buzz, but even though I always lose, I still like TSMM better

Bonus: I think a little Lion King a la Broadway would be awesome! It would almost remind me of an opening ceremony for the olympics (speaking of which... we are just days away folks!!).

 

[a-mad]

Sundays are for Disney:

TSMM - only because my wife consistently gets higher scores than me on Buzz, but I have a better W-L record on TSMM. So, yeah, it's a competition thing.

Super Bowl - I really miss the Country Bears at DL, so any chance I can to see them would be a bonus.... plus they would take the halftime show back to a rootsy, folksy, acoustic vibe that might be nice.

I’m pretty sure I know the answer to this, but there are no photopass photogs at the character stops, right? You have to hand someone your phone or camera, right?

That’s not true for all characters. In park characters seem to have photopass. Outside of the park not so much.

I think we had photopass photographers at all the character stops we made this year with the exception of Pluto outside of WWoS. We also always hand the CM our phone as well though, so we get both a Photopass shot and one on our phone.

Good to know! I think the half is the only race I’m planning to do character stops, so I could do that with my phone out. Otherwise, I wear it on my arm.
