News Round Up 2019

yeah, i think most people knew or can understand that this wasn't something that was going to last for 20 years ... but it does seem like a quick change and if you recently purchased one I could see feeling like a bit of bait and switch. maybe if they gave like a 6 month notice or something it wouldn't be as much of an issue

I just purchased one at the end of August and got 3 days worth of unlimited swaps. I at least would have expected to be able to use it for my next couple trips as well. If I would’ve known this change was coming I certainly wouldn’t have bought it for just 3 days!

Honestly, more of the "famous" people than I was expecting (stars of TV shows, directors, Bob Iger, etc.) vs more "font line" CMs (still plenty of the later but I had in my head it would be almost exclusively that)

Agreed. I could care less about watching Jesse Tyler Fergusson or Robin Roberts get their make-up and hair done. I'm much more interested in the park performers and costumers and animal keepers and the lady that choreographs the parades!

Realistically any program out there is up for change (majority place a clause in there too that things are subject to change). If I sued every company or entity out there that just up and changed something I wouldn't have any time to do anything else.

I also do feel this one is a bit different than Universal's lawsuit. I feel like that one is more about how it's advertised or well lack there of to consumers. Whereas Disney's fuel rod never said "unlimited swaps forever" I'm sure it probably said "subject to change yadda yadda yadda".

All that said that does not mean I don't understand how it feels to be burned by something or feel like if only you had known kind of thing.

Maybe he got in trouble because Aunt Becky paid him off to admit her kids to the college

On one hand, I think the unlimited lawsuits seem silly. On the other hand, what would happen to Disney+ if all internet providers used data caps like satellite instead of “unlimited” data?

It's already known that they throttle it and slow it down.

I'm pretty sure he put her on the basketball team....with a scholarship

I was very disappointed when the vintage Mickey design was discontinued so I'm ecstatic it has returned. I've already requested an update to my card design to the vingate Mickey. Hate to tell you, but the Disney gift card designs have now been homogenized. There are only two to three different designs available now for the gift cards.

Yeah, it's a real shame. My mother's former boss got us a really beautiful Disney Gift Card for our wedding. My wife consolidates all of our gift cards onto that one. She loves it.

I know compared to a lot of news this isn't a big deal, but this is a cute show an not many Disney Jr shows go beyond 3 years so kind of a big deal
