I will admit that some of the rides do look facinating. That said, what does a boy thinking his sister get's all the attention, an older couple consisting of a hurt looking older woman and what is apparently a block of ice for a husband and a young lady recluse have to do with the parks. Nicely done and absolute tear jerkers but I didn't sense a lot of fun in the ones I saw. Again, personal opinion. Far better than a group of seriously emotional people standing in a bunch of clouds, but still they don't give me a lot of reason to pack my skivvy's and go. I did enjoy the extended ride footage.

Originally Posted By Goofyernmost Don't get me wrong trek, as far as creativity is concerned they have beat ours to death. But don't you have to admit that the connections are a bit offbeat and not really more than an unrelated story to somehow include Disney Seas in. For example, did the kid find out that his mother liked him because he was in Disney or because he created an event, totally unrelated except for the location, to make his parents react. The older couple seemed sad to me. Is that how Japanese culture really is...distant and cold and Disney can somehow change thousands of years of tradition just by existing? I don't know what to make of the third one. I thought they were nice and they were emotional but unless I had a like circumstance I don't know how I could relate to them. They at least tried.
Originally Posted By MPierce I'm with Goofyernmost. I think after the 2005, and 2006 video, Disney set the bar higher for it's presentation. They've really failed in my opinion to live up to that. Those videos with Erin, Dave, Stacey, and Luke were very entertaining. Over time I even got to where I could tolerate Luke. They made me gey excited over the Parks, and I still enjoy watching them. Now they are just run of the mill boring. Next thing you know, I'll be longing for the original Stacey Aswad top 7 program.

I was merely referencing her original version of it, compared to her much more toned down version that is being used now at the Resorts.

Originally Posted By mousermerf Umm.. I'm actually still in the brochures they give out to guests so I can't really comment on how often or the "last time" any such thing they depict happened to me.

It may not be something every guests sees all the time, but it wouldn't surprise me if it happens in the park every day.
Originally Posted By danyoung >You shouldn't be in your room, you should ne out in the parks having fun.< Hey, you have to spend SOME time in the room, if only to sleep. And when getting ready in the morning, Stacy keeps me company.

(Do they also go to 3D movies and sit there?) But I'm still waiting to see Goofy waterski on Bay Lake like he did in some of the old souvenir books.
