Am I allowed to say I can’t wait to experience this?

So curious how expensive it’ll be and I’m not happy the rooms are for 5 with a family of 6.

Rumor Rogue from the X-Men to appear in Captain Marvel 2.

I’d be surprised if they went that way for CM2. From what’s been reported they’re holding off on X-men for a long while. Plus I would think CM2 would be space based with Fury and SWORD involved. Maybe in CM3?

I have no desire to do this, but can't wait to see what they're going to be charging!

I am $ure that many people will be $hocked by the co$t but those of u$ who know and love Di$ney will not be $upri$ed in the lea$t.

Tornado watch was just issued for Lake Buena Vista on the Weather Network.

 

[only hope]

According to a weather.com map, the coast from north of Savannah to Jacksonville Fl is under tornado watch; from there south to nearly the bottom of the state the watch covers the entire width of Florida (not that that takes much). I am not staying up til 3am for a tornado watch- I should already be asleep really. It's a good thing the parks didn't have a late close scheduled today, but some of the cm may get stuck driving in the storm.

It's really getting nasty here. I gave a heads up to the FW forum since the campers/tents/trees might be impacted. Hopefully, there will be no damage to them/WDW.

The video looks closer to raging fire than small blaze.

Who owns ABC?

 

[only hope]

I was thinking somewhere inbetween “raging” and “small blaze.” I mean, it appeared to be a story tall- but it also wasn’t very wide and was put out quickly. Raging to me means very large and out of control. A small blaze would be like, oh, my campfire set the grass on fire and i stamped it out.

Disney does however Disney does not own all ABC affiliate news stations.

Ruined our Dessert Party tonight, real bummer. Still great vacation so far overall though.

Disney does own the referenced affiliate.

I don't think Disney intentionally told ABC 7 to downplay the fire. The fire was contained quickly it sounds like and was backstage. Could've been a vehicle or dumpster.

I do have a desire to do this, but also know that I will not be able to afford it.

I am not sure what the price point is that prevents me from doing it. We'll see, but I plan to do it in the first year it's open. Hoping Disney does what they sometimes do with new experiences, keep it reasonable at.first.until it's proven popular then Jack up the price. They may just.go for.broke but I think they will be cautious initially not to scare.people off.
