I hope steakhouse 71 evokes the old Concourse Steakhouse from back in the day!

TimTracker has their take on Genie. Start the vlog around 12 minutes. They were having tech problems at the beginning.

And Tables in Wonderland. Hopefully that will come with the news about APs. Maybe next week?

Well, they said we’d hear about APs this month, and there’s not a whole lot of month left, so hopefully?

That's pretty shocking. They say they are considdering buying SONY - not Sony Pictures, but Sony as a whole. I find that hard to swallow. That would be crazy if true! Sony sometimes wants to divest their studio, at least when it is underperforming. I can't imagine Disney wants to take on manufacturing televisions!

yeah I can't see Disney wanting to take on the consumer electronics end of Sony including Playstation and manufacturing ... remember that Disney dropped out of the gaming market some years back. They'll try some way to get the film and TV/streaming rights from Sony even if it means getting Sony Pictures, but I'd guess they negotiate for the gaming exclusivity to stay with PlayStation.

Tinkerbell will still be flying!

I would be 100% ok with them using the exact same moment/line/song as HEA haha. It will be hard to beat that emotion.

From what I have heard, the AP announcement was supposed to be this week, but got sidelined for the Genie announcement. So hopefully it's next week for those of you who have been patiently waiting.

This was definitely missed when I was hopping around Hollywood. I like the Prime Time atmosphere without the Prime Time commitment.

Any guesses to when desert parties will come back

Parties in the desert? I hope they supply a lot of beverages.

That will be incredibly hard to do, but I'm optimistic!

Does anyone else think park ticket price increase will be included with AP announcement?

With date-based tickets, they could increase ticket prices every day (for all dates or just a few) and the only people who would know would be ones who checked the price of a given date range one day and then looked at it again the next day. There’s no need for Disney to announce an overall price increase.

I'm not sure I'd call whatever I have been doing "patiently"

That said, maybe it's for the best that it got a little delayed because in the interim I've bought Boo bash, Christmas after hours, and rinkside Disney on Ice tickets. I feel like I need a cool down period

But really though.... bring on the APs! I'd say a Disney addiction is at least cheaper than drugs but at this point I'm honestly not sure.

I don’t recall seeing you mention APs much before today at all!
