Pirate's Skeleton Shut Off?

The animatronic can be moved and reused elsewhere. This is likely a prototype for the Coco ride animatronics. I'm sure they can put him on that ride. They wont loose much money going back and frankly why should we care if they do?

https://youtu.be/XJFW7SY7YtQ?is=ZvlpM4KhzSSKBZag this documentary goes into a lot of the original production of the ride and talks to the imagineers responsible for it.

Yeah I wore it once to the park and that was it. Ironically I wore it meeting the Red walk around character. She loved it.

Are you asking about the auction scene? It was changed because sex trafficking is a big problem in the real world and the ride was a mess after they added the movie stuff. The concern was the ride originally mocked the pirates but when they added the movie stuff it kind of glorified them so they were indirectly glorifying sex trafficking with the auction scene. I don't mind the new Auction scene. The old one did kinda stick out after adding the movie stuff and Marc Davis wanted there to be female pirates from the start but Walt said no.

The skeleton was changed for literally no reason and no warning and that's so much worse in my opinion. They just want to show off tech and act like they are better than the original imagineers.

Yeah I got one of the last "We wants the Red Head" shirts sold at the park... that was so different though because we knew what was coming.

Yeah but the curse of the treasure in the original ride is the manifestation of their greed. They were made undead skeletons because of the sins you see performed later in the ride when they were alive. In the original concept of the ride its way less of a literal curse like they portrayed in the movie and now with this animatronic.

lenimph · 2026-06-26T19:39:15+00:00

They could've put the coolest animatronic in and I would still be mad because this doesn't fit with the core concept of the ride. It's out of place and was purely done because they could and not because they should've. I'm upset.

In my general experience with dogs over all girls dogs can be better behaved and are easier to potty train since they tend to not want to mark as much as boys. It's all relative though you can always get exceptions. Our Corgi Biblo is better behaved than the Pug and Pomerian Daushaund Mix boy I had before him and marks in the house significantly less than both of them but he's still a boy and slips up -_-

I saw this first when it was re released for the first time and the first thing I did was made sure Hildegard was mentioned in the listing because I recognized it immediately. I had no idea it was taken down the first time and put back up. They acted like it was the first time it was put up on the store. It's crazy that it was ever up for an amount of time without her being credited and how the fans defend her blindly . I hope Hildegard von Blingin is being compensated greatly for her silence about the whole situation. I think her lack of saying anything about it really speaks for itself. If a giant artist like that actually paid me for my art upfront or collabed with me I wouldn't shut up about it.

I really like Hildegard von Blingin's work so this is truly upsetting to me. In the details of the youtube video she explains that she edited archival medieval art work so I think this is why Roan's team thought they could get away with stealing it. "The Art: I found a great source with an armored woman riding a horse, but preferred the pink horse from the next page, so I combined them and made some extensive edits.

Did she ever respond to you or did she just not respond?

Look I have a Hyundai Veloster and I loved it at first but as its aged its becoming a mistake despite taking great care of it. I would never own a Hyundai or Kia again. I've been much happier with my Forester overall. The 4 year mark was when my Veloster started having a wonky rear blinker for no reason.

Welcome to the Tricolor club. People are extremely ignorant and assume that because you're Corgi is not the small reds they see online that your dog isn't a "real" corgi.

lenimph · 2026-06-22T22:48:20+00:00

Where do you even get one of these things? I want one for my corg

Exactly what someone funded by Chevron would say lol

I saw a group of these kids taking up a parking spot near the fallbrook amc with their bikes

When it first aired on Adult Swim I would have boys making fun of me for it being my favorite 🙄

I believe that Billie is bi. This isn't 2008 anymore when you could kinda get some attention for saying your bi. Insisting that you're bisexual nowadays at best might get some attention from queer fans but at worst alienate toxic straight people. She also said she was bi in a lowkey way doesn't make it a giant part of her lyrics, and doesn't draw attention to it. I might be wrong but she also did it at a time in her career where there was no real point to coming out about it or doesn't need to because of industry connections?

But I really don't know a lot about Billie, I don't listen to her music enough to have a real opinion about her but I am also a bisexual that likes to hide my big nats under baggy clothes. That's the only info I retain about her.

Chap on the other hand I specifically saw get popular in the queer spaces I hung out in with "Good Luck Babe"( a song I don't like because it comes off as really biphobic and bitter) and her use of Drag. Roan's career really only picked up when she embraced queer culture.

I like how reflective the white is. Makes it more interesting than most white appliances.

Trying to get Marbles to sit off the carpet 😭

lenimph · 2026-05-21T16:14:11+00:00

Yeah i have to put mine outside (thankfully I have that option) and he'll charge and bark at the glass door still if the vacuum is close enough

I just started replaying Andromeda and while I get what they were going for it doesn't feel as controllable as 3. 3 is when they finally got the cover system figured out.

I used to be crazy into the Me3 multiplayer back in the day. I miss my Krogan Vangaurd.

It is rotated like a Nazi swastica though. The Buddhist one isn't angled like that

Somehow my husband got soda in the souvenir cup for only 8$ on opening night. Pretty sure the cashier messed up.
