I think they even mispelled it, calling it "Monsters, Inc. Mike and Sully to the Rescue". (The ocrrect spelling is "Mike and Sulley") It was basically the July commercial promoting the new attractions, but featured Chicken Little instead of Stitch. The last scene was even Space Mountain.

Originally Posted By Westsider Don't know about that Blacksheep Uncle, but when they begin offering the local discounts every winter you really notice the clientele change, especially on weekends. Seriously, you can honestly spot them walking around, and only when we offer the SoCal discounts. Some of my favorite "Stupid Guest Tricks" have happened during White Trash Days, and they've been performed by folks who were obviously locals who left their brains and their manners at home for the day.
Originally Posted By Blacksheep Uncle well I don't know for sure...but it seems to me that after the ticket books went away I was almost always able to find an off season discount when I wanted to go to Disneyland...I'm pretty sure off season discounts aren't anything new at all... and Westsider, welcome to wonderful world of sales, it's the same everywhere that depends on the public to pay the bills, the bigger the sale the loopy-er the customers become... and maybe it's me but I always felt it was better to have to put up with "stupid guest tricks" than be sitting at home broke because there weren't enough "hours" at work in the slow season...(not that there will be much of a slow season at Disneyland this year )

"Nobody really chooses to go to that park," she said. "The kids want to go to Disneyland." OUCH! And some people still wonder why DCA still isn't succesful. With word of mouth advertising like that, who needs a bunch of Disney geeks on the Internet?
Originally Posted By imagineer1985 "OUCH! And some people still wonder why DCA still isn't succesful." DCA isn't succesfull yet it Blows other area parks attendance out of the WAter? I think it is succefull yet could be even more succesfull. With further adjustments and additions.

Why not give incentive for people to visit DCA? ie, "VISIT DCA, goto DL for free". Better yet, "VISIT DCA, goto DL for $20 (or $15, or $10)". Get it? They would easily bump up DCA attendance while making even more $ for DL. Another missed opportunity!
Originally Posted By TP2000 Six Flags Magic Mountain just raised their ticket prices today to $59.99! That's a whopping ten dollar increase in one day from their previous prices! So now a day at Magic Mountain is more expensive than a day at DCA or Disneyland! Bizarre.

Tower of Terror taught them that huge advertising $$$ was a total waste of time at DCA.
