Gonna derail this thread by saying that universal studios Hollywood is better.
They got Simpsons, Shrek and despicable me.

I havent been to Disney in close to 15 years and I saw the Disney Collector packs recently and I think they're pretty cute for a fun little souvenir. Anyone here buy any? Do you get alot of duplicate characters or is it a good variety?

>>91446641
Are those like blind box purchase toys? Those look cool.

Universal is objectively better than Disney in every way except for charm. The Mummy ride should be all you need to convince someone of this.

>>91446734
They're little blind-bags with a miniature figure in them, yeah.

>>91446641
Hard to tell for sure from the image but they look like those cheap tiny figurines like the ones in dispenser machines at Walmart. I don't think they'd be worth collecting though there are a few cool ones in there.

This ride makes my dingus tingle

>>91447034
I feel that way on Splash Mountain

>/co/ - Comics & Cartoons

So, which of those two specific things does this thread fall under?

In all seriousness, I haven't been to Disney in about a decade. I heard the closed DisneyQuest and have an Avatar park now. What?

>>91447162
disneyquest is alive until july

doesnt matter anyway, it got really shitty, half the of the cabinets didnt work anymore and the ones that did were damaged or unresponsive.

>>91447215
That's... sorta heartbreaking. My first real fighting game exposure was their old MvC1 cabinet, and while I'm sure they haven't aged well, those VR games and roller coaster simulators were pretty damn fun.

>>91447215
I hope the Fix It Felix cabinets get moved somewhere else but besides that, good riddance to Disney Quest.

>>91447162
Animal Kingdom is getting a new section of the park devoted to the James Cameron Avatar movie. Absolutely no one gives a shit about it.

>>91447162
Disney Parks threads do best on /co/. /trv/ is just a drug/hookup board, and /tv/ doesn't want them either.

>>91446453
Tokyo's Tower is the only one of the copies that rivals the original

>>91447833
But doesn't incorporate Twilight Zone, right?

>>91447939
no its an original story

>>91446453

Well considering DCA doesn't have a tower of terror anymore, the competition is a little slim.

>>91446768
>get all rides done and do studio tour all in a day
This
Seriously I may be in the minority but fast passes should not be free. It just fucks up the stand by lines.

>>91447939
Correct, an original story that's part of a pulp adventure universe that the Imagineers have been developing over the last 15 years, centered around the Society of Explorers and Adventurers

how much are these now?

worth it to go tomorrow or would it be to busy?

>>91446531
this

ive been to disney world, disneyland and universal orlando, universal hollywood
Florida has better Disney but California adventure is best park
Hollywood has better universal bc Backlot tour

prove me wrong

>>91447162
>>91447215
they've said they're going to close it every summer since like 2012, but they havent since the NBA deal fell thru

>>91448174
$11+

>>91446453
>>91447939
They're shutting it down to turn it into a GotG ride, I'm not kidding.

>>91448218
Only Disneyland's for the moment.

As far as Florida goes, it's being considered for either the Tower or for the Universe of Energy at Epcot. Even though the correct solution would be to put it in Rock n' Rollercoaster.

>>91448174
$17

>>91448174
i think it was 12 in Disneyland when i was there last august.
i was at Disneyworld in february but didnt get one. it was on the dinning plan though

>>91448188
Nope. It was 9 out of 10 crowds resort wide according to travel plans. I recommend waiting till Easter passes.

>>91448216
Well I guess it's enough to feed a couple people so it's not entirely overpriced

>>91448259
my little bro has spring break in high school right now, so i would assume its pretty crowded

From what I heard they are replacing Ellen's Energy Adventure with Guardians.

I know only the California Adventure one's is being closed but that was the only one I went to last year and fell in love with. My friend is a normie and even she thinks it's a retarded idea becasue it doesn't fit the aesthetic or theme of the park/area.

>Turn the limos into spaceships

>Replace the blacklit plywood cut outs with space shit.

It's the most logical solution for a quick and dirty Guardians attraction and Aerosmith's finally going on a farewell tour anyways.

The Lands or The Sea ?

>>91448339
The Land, entirely because of Soarin'.

>>91448339
sea for me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TNnGx0pV0Y

>>91448353
and the food that it

>>91448318
>>91448332
Though I still rather see Ellen's "ride" gone even though that makes a lot of sense.

>Friend was hoping for the Tower retheme to based off of KH

Jesus, I know some folks want it to be represented in the parks somehow but come on.

And no, the cloaked Mickey pin you can occasionally find in Tomorrowland doesn't count to them.

>>91448272
>my little bro has spring break in high school right now
>spring break

That's another reason why so damn packed at this time of the year too.

>>91448353
I just remembered that Patrick Warburton was in the pre ride video for Soarin

>>91448412
thats the best part of the ride

>>91448362
I don't like the Neo ride, too fast and I can't hear and understand what the characters are doing. Also what so Bruce the Shark is a bad guy now

>>91448376
There's plenty of ways you can update Energy without resorting to a mindless movie tie-in. Like there's been proposals for some time now, but fucking every major new addition in an American park these days has to be an extension of a movie.

>>91448441
How long is Energy anyway ?

>>91446453
My friend just got a job as Captain America, had another friend who was Thor for a while. At long last I can go back into a Disney park for free.

>>91448412
>Nice work Pal

>>91448456
Like 40 minutes and most of that is movie.

If you changed the ride system to something more compact and used the vastness of those two theaters to your advantage, you could get a solid dark ride about Deep Time in there. A history of Life on Earth thing to compliment Spaceship Earth's history of human civilization. But that doesn't sell Dancing Groots, now does it?

If they do kill Energy, it'd be nice if they at least sent the dinosaurs over to Magic Kingdom and put them along the railroad like at Disneyland.

>>91448566
Would anyone miss that ride if they convert it? I mean it's been there for 20+ years right, anyone who's been on it knows about it and I doubt anyone new to the parks would like it.

>>91448816
I'd miss it simply because it encapsulates a very specific part of the 90's that makes up some of my earliest memories, but I can understand letting it go.

>>91448441
It ain't no Maelstrom

>>91449042
Orange Dole Whip was better, and I'm going to bitter until they bring it back.

Best place to eat in the park though? The only right answer is Jurassic cafe

>>91446768
>spend entire afternoon at Didney with sister in Peter Pan line
Well there's your problem - you got on the Peter Pan ride at a time that wasn't close to opening.

I miss the college program. If any of you guys get the opportunity, absolutely do it.

>>91450041
>college program
Wait what?

>>91450131
The Disney College Program. They have it at both WDW and DL (I did mine at Hollywood Studios in Orlando), and basically you work as a cast member for a semester doing anything from attractions to character performance or even custodial. It's real fun and you get free admission to the parks. Of course they pay you kind of shitty and the hours can suck, but it was a great opportunity to see the parks behind the scenes and meet new people.

assuming Avatar 2 either bombs or never materializes, what do you guys think will happen to Avatar Land within the next 10-15 years?
