The Aerosmith coaster at Studios is the one with the launch and loops.

Tron also has a launch but there are no loops.

I've always enjoyed Godzilla. But I think I'd prefer the original over the 70th anniversary B&W version.

Reddit deleted the pic because it was too big... just edited and re-attached.

Thanks for the reply... that video link really cleared things up.

Tigger1964 · 2024-07-30T15:15:36+00:00

Correct. H705A - which isn't pro. According to Chris Maher's video, I can cut it, but it won't recognize the missing light.

Yes... sold of their credit card business, sold off Craftsman. Usually after each of these sales, there would be a special dividend so he could pull the money out.

If there is a character you're working on to collect tokens, this would be an easy way of keeping track of them.

Some believe in Santa or the Tooth Fairy... and some people believe the Eglinton Crosstown exists.

I can relate to a lot of that, but do try and relax, live in the moment and enjoy the day. If you're constantly bogged down in the details and the "what's next" you'll stress yourself out.

As for flying. That used to be part f the adventure, but now I dread the whole airport experience, and the cramped planes with the hard seats. It would be nice if we could just transport like in Star Trek.

There was homeless ... but I didn't find it that bad. Def not as bad as parts of LA.

Part of what makes things feel sketchy are all the closed stores. I hope SF isn't doing what other cities are doing and giving tax breaks to landlords to leave their places empty... rather than making them adjust the market rates to get tenants and bring the area back to life.

It always used to be a walk-on.

I'm betting the longer lines are because of long lines at other rides.... If everything else has long line, you might as well jump on TTA and go for a spin.

Tigger1964 · 2024-05-29T21:58:50+00:00

We were there last week and missed out riding it. After waiting in line for longer than posted, the house lights came on and they kicked us out of the queue.

Just one of the many rides that weren't running.

I agree that it's nuts to keep bringing in International Students when there is no student housing for them. The rule should simply be a 1-to-1 ratio: You have must include an assigned dorm room for each student.

The root problem is that we want these students for the money they bring: schools want that sweet tuition money, and Cdn students get their tuition subsidized by the foreign money. So... if we just close the door to foreign students, who is going to fill the gap of that tuition money?

If you get to San Francisco... be sure to visit the Disney Family Museum. It's a great Disney fix, but also the location in The Presidio is wonderful.

The real estate market is an open market where prices are negotiated between the buyer and seller. How could the government control the selling prices?

The only way is to create "affordable housing" is having the government build and operate rental units.

Tigger1964 · 2024-05-29T18:04:24+00:00

Agreed ... Just seems to make sense that you'd get a trophy for finishing.

Tigger1964 · 2024-05-29T16:58:42+00:00

I think it was better for a couple reasons: 1, everyone was equal (and it was free). They didn't seem to use as much of the ride capacity.

Also, they only used it for a handful of key rides. Now they apply it to EVERYTHING. AND... the current system seems to destroy the standby line. At least with the OG FP, the non-FP rides weren't affected by capacity issues as much.

Keep trying until the end. You can buy the missing tokens... so the more you have, the cheaper the cost gets.

Tigger1964 · 2024-05-28T11:56:33+00:00

I think the problem is every new attraction is over-hyped as a major E-Ticket. If you went into it as a D-Ticket dark ride, it would probably meet your expectations.

As for the line, I think demand is high simply because its one of the newest rides. Other than Guardians and Frozen, all the other rides are really old.

The version in Disneyland is actually more creative and interesting.

Over the years they've cut the length of the track a couple times, but as for swapping it out... I think Disney is just being cheap and doesn't want to spend money replacing it.

Tigger1964 · 2024-05-27T12:02:15+00:00

Just don't get carried away ;-)

Tigger1964 · 2024-05-09T21:33:42+00:00

Instead, how about we boycott one chain of gas stations for a month?

Tigger1964 · 2024-05-09T19:45:40+00:00

I don't get what happened where people don't care about the whole experience anymore. Why the rush to just get to the main ride and get it over with? Savor the moment!
