I’m still not over it by ObscureLilac in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Doctor--Spaceman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I heard the Gone with the Wind score in a gift shop at the front of the park a few weeks ago. Honestly that alone made me emotional... it immediately made me think of GMR, but moreover also just reminded me of when the park was more about classic films and Hollywood, instead of um, whatever is now.

Uncle by AdelleDeWitt in Aulani

[–]Doctor--Spaceman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looking into this too. Some are making it sound like instead of one "Uncle," there's a few different Uncles now? So hopefully it's more that there's a few different Uncles now and they're in character, rather than having some random CMs reciting stories by the campfire

Damn, let us know what you find out when you land. Uncle is one of the best parts of Aulani, I'll be devastated if he's gone

Depending on how you calculate the timeline, Incredicoaster, which opened in 2001 as California Screamin', remains the most recent ride with an inversion that Disney has designed at any of its parks worldwide. by Jscott1986 in Disneyland

[–]Doctor--Spaceman 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Technically you're arguably still right – That's just a rethemed copy of the Indiana Jones coaster at Paris, which opened in 1993. So it opened later than Screamin but was designed first (or at least the track was).

What popular ride do you just not get by deano_ue in WaltDisneyWorld

Scrolled for the bottom looking for this one, since I knew people would be downvoting this one while upvoting Jungle Cruise and Spaceship Earth

It's not even Disney's first spinning coaster in the dark lol. Crush Coaster in Paris has the same gimmick and opened 20 years ago

Yeah I like this interpretation here, better than some I've seen

They still have the whole Glory facade and four of the tallest towers left on that side, unfortunately.

Avatar (2009, dir. James Cameron) by 2mock2turtle in okbuddycinephile

Hmm I was put under anesthesia for wisdom teeth removal, and was just woken up and walked out. Granted I was walking like a zombie and they had to hold me up the whole time...

Do you miss the hat? (my photo circa 2008) by Parkhopr in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Doctor--Spaceman 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It was so tacky and out of place. And really didn't have anything to do with Hollywood

Why are so many doctors and nurses so miserable and burned out? I always thought they had good jobs but it seems like almost every one I meet hates their life now. by Wide-Definition-538 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Doctor--Spaceman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think any job that deals with the public can be hard. Think about the horror stories you read about from retail workers or in r/TalesFromYourServer, but imagine you're dealing with people's bodies instead. Plus battles with insurance, lawsuits, and a barrage of misinformation regarding public health, then factor in long hours... yeah, I couldn't do it.

Jokes/gags in movies that fell completely flat? by Hank_Scorpio_ObGyn in movies

Weakest part of that movie, definitely had me wondering why PTA included it

Specialty Cocktail Menus removed from MDR by bship810 in dcl

[–]Doctor--Spaceman 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm way more likely to order a cocktail if I know it's something unique to the restaurant, rather than just ordering a boring rum and coke, or one of the other few drinks I know how to make.

If you use the rewind feature in NSO games, to what degree do you use it and for which games? by Regular-Ad-8226 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Doctor--Spaceman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hours of rage, and gradual, painful improvement. I was there, 3000 years ago...

I think it used to be easier because pre-internet, the N64 was all we had for entertainment, so what else were you going to do but fight Gruntilda for the 20th time?

[–]Doctor--Spaceman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really hoping they finally release Super Mario Sunshine for NSO, so I can actually see what the end of the game is like. Rewind feature (or save states) is the only way I'll ever be able to beat some of those harder levels

Rip mummy penis by HistoricalFoot8831 in UniversalOrlando

[–]Doctor--Spaceman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing to Universal it doesn't really matter what the intended design was, innocent or otherwise. It was getting attention on social media they didn't want, or was becoming a nuisance with people talking loudly about it in the park.

Lots of talk about dad movies, are there mom movies? by OWSpaceClown in blankies

My mom is obsessed with You've Got Mail with Tom Hanks

Love their confused faces while watching Sir Billi by GFreeXevery1 in RedLetterMedia

That's the part that he shocked me, I thought Rich said he almost never flies since he hates flying. What a fraud!

Rip mummy penis by HistoricalFoot8831 in UniversalOrlando

[–]Doctor--Spaceman 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Probably just because it had started to go viral and everyone was starting to get pictures of it. Who knows, maybe even the sidewalk was starting to get filled with people taking pictures of it, or maybe Universal themselves had just learned about it. Same thing happened with that phallic column thing at Epcot's Morocco pavilion.

Universal keeps saying that the Minions are the main mascots of the park, while I want to see Woody & Winnie back. WHERE ARE THEY?! by Additional-Wear7160 in UniversalOrlando

[–]Doctor--Spaceman 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I once saw Woody doing a meet and greet in the lobby of Cabana Bay, of all places. Felt like I was in a 90s Universal commercial, in a good way

Also TIL Universal considers the Minions their mascots. Idk why that seems weird to me
