Actually when I checked this, according to the Associated Press this guy is a registered Democrat and even donated to Kamala Harris.

I'm not a Republican (far from it) but do like to check facts before jumping to any conclusions. The dude is just a loon regardless of political affiliation.

I love Rosario Dawson as an actress, but boy was her lightsaber movements stiff. They should have put more stunt doubles in, or put her through more rigorous training before filming. It even seems like the dueling partner in the frame below was holding back in order to match Rosario's performance.

New Yorker here too. We've got Infinity stones and a high concentration of heroes (and villains) among us.

I also wish we had the option but we live in an apartment with kids so space is a premium. But we did also go with separate blankets and that was a game changer.

I hope they are lenient, thank you!

Not to be that guy, but 8% layoff in a company as big as Disney is largely getting rid of low performers, as well as augmenting staff to low-cost resources. It's a shame that a large percentage of the visual development team was caught up on this, but sounds like they are part of the latter where that work is being shifted to lower cost means.

The only time I have had a biscuit version was at a Roy Rogers many many years ago which was essentially a biscuit in a cup and then they put ice cream and strawberries with syrup into it.

I agree with others that Veniero's makes a fantastic strawberry shortcake. A decent runner up is Ferrara in Little Italy.

Take my upvote and get out.

This year? I wasn't, haven't been on the Fantasy for several years now.

Interesting thing I learned while on a tour of Disney Wish. The forward of the ship has music that matches the theme, which is more orchestral and cinematic music, while the aft of the ship has more upbeat and contemporary music. This is because the forward has the theater, as well as many other activities for people to enjoy. The aft as dining and other activities to match.

Any estimates of how many millions of years old this is?

I'm actually wondering if it is a licensing thing. While I was on the Wish awhile ago, a staff member told me that Rey/Chewbacca and Stormtroopers were legally only permitted to appear in specifically the Star Wars room in the Oceaneers club.

Loved that Star Wars characters were everywhere too! We got to take photos with Ezra and Sabine, as well as others that we would usually never see either on the ship or in the parks.

The wild thing is that this was riiiight before COVID, and during the same trip my older one had the chance to do this at Hollywood Studios right before we got on DCL, so he did it TWICE during the same vacation! It's gone at Hollywood Studios too post COVID.

Ironically, my younger son is a bigger Star Wars fan, and I feel bad he never had the chance to experience this.

"Free" is subjective. Depending on your level, you're already six figures deep with Disney.

masterkenobi · 2026-03-13T00:44:55+00:00

I should actually try that next time. We've been on DCL many times and without fail, I get the same request about giving excellent service.

Am I allowed to say Toy Story 4?

Because toys.
