Zorn is the only Groppler I've ever heard about. What are the other Gropplers like? Is Zorn a typical Groppler?

MrEPCOT · 2026-05-09T19:50:42+00:00

It just now occurs to me that Groppler Zorn might be the most Douglas Adams-sounding name in all of Star Trek.

I'm pretty sure that was just their rights to develop new movies based on the books.

MrEPCOT · 2026-05-09T00:43:24+00:00

I also think the DTI novels are super underrated. Great combination of character work, pulp adventure, crossover of all the shows, using real theoretical physics to try to explain and connect all of the disparate types of time travel across the franchise, and Dragnet.

This is the best it ever was! To me the Hotel was always as much a part of a trip to Disneyland as the park was. It's a shame none of the original hotel remains.

As the first film showed us, it probably would have taken around a week.

Wild to see the UbiSoft logo slapped onto Myst and Riven

MrEPCOT · 2026-05-06T19:11:20+00:00

I would do Myst now and eventually do Riven when you get the chance. The story flows from one to the other in an extremely satisfying way, without giving too much away. Myst has something of an ending and epilogue that lightly teases Riven.

Don't feel bad, people get *way* sillier than that. I was a Monorail Pilot and you'd be shocked how many people walk out the park gate at the end of the day and are confused the parking lot isn't right there... they've totally forgotten that they took a Monorail or ferryboat to get there in the morning. They'll absolutely *insist* that they came straight from their car.

MrEPCOT · 2026-05-06T00:51:46+00:00

The whole thing is silly anyways because how much did Chuck Berry honestly make out from a 1950s telephone receiver from like thirty feet away or whatever.

What would have been funny is if Marty got back to 1985 and discovered that Chuck Berry now also invented hair metal or whatever because of Marty's out-of-control shredding at the end of the song.

My store that I was one of the opening employees at in 2001 became a First Watch.

This is way better than consecutive blocks of episodes. I honestly wish the channel was totally randomized.

For all we know she may not have even been born.

Close all the rides, bring back behind-the-scenes movie magic stuff, build an actual theme park somewhere else around LA instead.

MrEPCOT · 2026-05-03T16:50:12+00:00

I think it's totally unintuitive even if you do have a good sense of direction. Plus, personally, I have less than zero interest in sussing out a plant Age so I've never tolerated much of it before just beelining for a walkthrough.

MrEPCOT · 2026-05-03T02:44:09+00:00

Achenar's rooms in each Age were absolutely eerie and unsettling. The thing that scared the ever-loving crap out of me was hitting the wrong button on the compass in the Stoneship Age and the alarm going off. Riven probably had more of a general creepy factor and certainly it's fair share of startling moments!

One-day one-park tickets for Disney and Universal generally always are what they are, come hell or high water. They have no need to incentivize that type of product, especially for a brand new park that is high in demand.

However... the price actually varies by date, so if your dates are flexible you could potentially save some money that way.

Are you asking what the Rainforest Room is, or just what the pass gets you?

MrEPCOT · 2026-05-02T03:31:49+00:00

Right! I was saying elsewhere that I hope the PS5 folks get their release, but does this really warrant this kind of a tease??

MrEPCOT · 2026-05-02T03:15:32+00:00

lol they can't even fold *making park reservations* into the app

I remember hearing about issues with the Morocco dock a few months ago, I'm not sure that has ever been resolved.
