disney you can let a property sit for a little while and do somethign different.

You're seriously underestimating the cowardice and greed of leadership in "creative" industries.

Companies like Disney are wildly risk averse and will pour money into these properties until the well is completely dry because new properties are scary and drastically harder to commodify. If your new property doesn't make Avengers money then you're just some loving idiot who should have greenlit another Marvel movie instead.

well and for Disney especially the films are an engine for the rest of the business. there is a huge apparatus of parks, cruises, merchandise, and tertiary licensing.

even mediocre movies keeps the turns on the already existing rides going and the cruise rooms booked.

Yeah, and Disney is extremely adept at keeping these properties alive. There are tons of little kids today who can sing along to Disney movies released in the 80s and 90s. Disney doesn't let go of anything, which is why Marvel and Star Wars TV shows and movies will now be with us forever.

It used to be that the parks had original attractions and themed areas not associated with the films. But of course this is late stage capitalism and every theme park has to be packed to the gills with IP and every original attraction ripped out to be a movie tie-in to keep pumping merchandise sales

surprisingly, not yet. i've actually genuinely been shocked they've kept that around along with the tiki room. tiki room kicks rear end, just out of nostalgia and it was my grandpa's favorite thing there when the first and only time we went together in like 1993. but it'll definitely be branded some marvel or moana 2 thingy at some point

e: i havent been in several years tho, like 2017-18? last time i went even before the genie lightning turbo pay2win auction queue pass-plus apps and subscriptions, it was kinda dire. all the 'upgraded' IP-tie-in poo poo was just really bad and lame. the new pirates-movie tie-in stuff sucks, they ruined spacemountain making it star wars themed and making it too bright with stupid star wars lines, the 2000 leagues under the sea is gone and replaced with something much dumber, the haunted mansion movie tie-in stuff looks like rear end. shant be going again until we have kids.

at least you could still eat at like peter pans pizza for like <$15 to share for 2 people, and get a decent french onion soup for $7. i thought food was reasonable relative to standard california-pricing

It’s there but they added tons of references to movie and tv characters from both Disney and Pixar. It’s now more about spotting the references rt\ather than being about world peace.

In Florida from like 2000-2011 the tiki room was redone as tiki room “under new management” featuring zazu and iago and they made a bunch of meta jokes about how dumb the original tiki room was. It eventually caught fire and burned down.

In California (Disneyland) they were planning to either bring over the Florida version with iago and zazu or do a lilo and stich redo but then 9/11 happened and Disney used it as an excuse to cut spending at the parks for half a decade. There was also a plan to replace it with a restaurant but that concept received a lot of pushback.

Yeah I use Edge pretty frequently.

My Firefox is pretty tightened up and restricted with customization and blocking so buying tickets or accessing government forms & services is a nightmare of shits broken.


if a site ain't working i just open it in edge and it sually works


worse thing about edge is turning off the bs but that takes 15 mins on initial setup

bing has a "webmasters" tool to take down those cached results but it's a pain in the rear end

Probably didn't really help that the media were treating obamacare as The Final And Ultimate Triumph of Progress, beyond which it's impossible for things to get any better because they're already as good as they are ever going to get.
