I'd almost go so far as to say they started at the trams from the parking lot, but those aren't quite so universal. My dream job is driving the small boats on the WL <> MK route. I do not know how to pilot a boat, but I’ll learn for that one.

It wasn’t its status as a resort restaurant, it’s just that Michelin didn’t do their full guide with stars for Florida before this year. In the US they generally stuck to the major cities (LA/NY/Chicago) until recently.

It's so peaceful and relaxing, even when it's packed. I have to slap on hearing protect for the dog though because the horns are incredibly loud no matter where you are on the boat, and I think that they have to be. It's not so much that it's a problem so much as it's like, well, here's your headphones for 3 minutes bud. And he goes hue hue im good and puts his soft little nose on the rail to watch the water go by (dog fuckin loves boat).

V&A wasn't open the first year of the Florida guide, didn't get one last year, and did this year

CapnAndy posted:At least one. The only actual in-ride video I got last time was from Tower of Terror (which, incidentally, I cherish -- I rode that with my little brother and it turns out he's scared of drop towers; he is visibly terrified in the video). I also got a few more videos but they were still images just with animations playing, like a picture in front of the Millenium Falcon that then pans out to a view of Batuu. Oddly it’s already €225 So I’m not sure how much that matters. When can you normally do that fast check in thing?

3/10, despite good acting I could not overcome the camera being completely dark for nearly its total run length.

No, you see, you have to experience it in a theater where they keep the lights on the whole time

They keep giving movies to rides that don’t actually have a story but yet they won’t make a legit Tower of Terror movie. I know there was the made for TV one but it’s not great and kind of changes the story too much.

Make it a futuristic sci-fi movie but done as if it were made in the 70's and capture the aesthetic of the show building and queue. I'd be down for that.

Someone should be on a rail car and get their head lopped off by a low hanging rail as a homage to how terrifying space mountain is with the lights on

2.5/4 stars Interesting concept, but the herniated disk from 2 hours of jerking me around a pitch black theater just not worth it

CapnAndy posted:The sum total of Tower of Terror's story is "magic lightning hit an old-timey hotel and made an elevator disappear", I'm not convinced there's a movie there either. I suppose you’re right, but that’s at least a basic premise/setup for something to expand on, vs. completely coming up with a story out of thin air. Like a Space Mountain movie could just be any sci fi movie that features space flight. I’d love to see them do something actually a little creepy and trippy with the Hollywood Tower Hotel

Space Mountain should be a (space) airport-centric meet-cute dramedy, just with a real wild psychadelic hyperspace scene in the middle.

Offhand Disney did one of those, and I like his ideas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jtu7b7MakUk Or the idea above works, too. Maybe we'll get a setting and a universe surrounding the space station(s).

When they filmed Episode I's scenes on Tattooione, they also filmed scenes for Episode II and III so that they wouldn't have to return to the same desert in years to come. Likewise, the middle segment of Space Mountain will be co-filmed with an eventual Peoplemover film.

Just had the worst lunch ever from all my trips to Disney at Space220. Ranking it below Pizza Rizzo and pizza windows. Plus the screen was busted.

I'm still recovering from the meal today, I excised the demon last night before bed. How could every different app,and main course,and add on be so bland,watery and bad for four different people. The best part was probably the spiced mule and the regular pickle spear that came with the nephew's burger. Also the waiter continually calling it Space Water every refill. When the waiter asked if we were ready for dessert we were all laughing shaking our heads vigorously saying "no" in unison. We united in amusement of our displeasure of the meal for the rest of the day-You heard of drinking around the world?What about reststops around the world. And isn't that part of the Disney magic in the end?

It's still stupidly difficult to get into, and not worth the effort. We only did it because it was a friend's birthday who was a former CM (she actually became a CM again in an office job between the reservation and actual visit) and it was one of the only places in Epcot other than the really expensive one in Japan that she had not been to.

I did Space 220 last fall. It wasn't bad but you're definitely paying for the theming. We did end up with a window seat. I don't plan on going there again unless I hear of a big menu change. I've never actually been to Pizza Rizzo but you all make it sound like it's worth checking out.

we love Pizza Rizzo because we can go upstairs and sit outside in quiet and not elbow to elbow with people, and watch DHS as we eat. The pizza is definitely kids pizza but we are OK with that. The theming is wonderful.

PizzeRizzo tastes exactly like DiGiorno to me. So, not great, not terrible.

It's definitely food court pizza, but I'm of the opinion that you can't eat fancy at every meal -- one of the reasons I ended up disliking the time I tried the dining plan was that all that rich food started to make me sick after a while. So I can appreciate some extremely mid pizza or chicken fingers.
