So, I'll be going to Disneyland next weekend. It should be pretty fun. We've been watching my step-sisters puppy for the last few months while she moved to LA, and we figured, since we'd be in LA, we'd just go to the magic kingdom.

My favorite rides aren't actually in Disneyland proper. Tower of Terror and that big white roller coaster, respectively, in California Adventure are the bestest.

Do you have any memories of Disneyland or it's related parks that you'd like to share? Maybe discuss your favorite disney movies?

    I've never been to Disneyland.

    My dad went there when he was a kid and he said it was kind of boring.

    I LOVE Disneyland. It's a shame you are going with your whore family instead of letting this be a SoCalPAX thing.

    It is a bit. You have to just let go and do everything and not be afraid of how silly or childish it may be.


    Because, hey, it's fucking DISNEYLAND, man.

    edit: nothing is stopping anyone in socal from showing up. just know that it will be weird for me to explain to my very un-technological mother that i'm meeting strangers from the intertron at a theme park.


    who may have promised me candy in return for some favors.

    Shit man I forgot how much I love Disney land.

    I don't think I'll ever go again, though.

    Although, hour long waits for some sort of spacey ride? Psh, fuck that.

    Almost every forumer I have met was first met at Disneyland. The ones I enjoy talking to, at least.

    Also Wook who hates me for a variety of very legitimate reasons.

    I went to Disneyland but I'm a total pussy and anything that has some slight relation to a roller-coaster scares me, so that wasn't so good.

    I like Disney movies a lot, though.

    Meet The Robinsons was surprisingly entertaining, although it would have been better done in traditional animation, in my opinion.

    The Indiana Jones ride is awesome, if only for the atmosphere. All of the Mountain rides are pretty sweet also.

    Overall Disneyland is cool, but doesn't really satisfy the roller coaster lover like Magic Mountain and other parks can.

    I've been to Disney World.

    I remember seeing the tv movie of The Tower of Terror where the children all died so I opted out of that ride.

    Then I bit my tongue on Space Mountain.

    But I saw Jasmine from Alladin. She was hot

    I've never been to DisneyLand but have been to DisneyWorld many a time.

    Me and my girlfriend have already said if we ever get married it will be at Disney World. They have a chapel that overlooks the water near the Magic Kingdom.

    I'm a sucker for Disney movies.

    Also, for those of you who haven't been to DisneyWorld in about 2+ years. There's now a real reason to go to Animal Kingdom other than the safari, dinosaur and that water-ride.


    Because Expedition Everest tops the Rock-n-Roller Coaster in the eyes of many. It's a fantastic ride.

    I spent a whole bunch of money and got a box set of all Pixar Movies up to Ratatouille, with the extended special features and shit and the collection of shorts.

    Like 12 discs worth.

    It was a good purchase.

    You know, I go there all the time and never see Leli. This could be affected by the park giving "new" employees shitty hours or her not being put at the parts of the ride that are easily visible while cutting in line on Splash Mountain.

    The only solution is to hang out there NONSTOP until you get profiled by park security as a possible child abductor. :o

    I think one of the best things about Disneyland is sitting down on a bench in a high-foot-traffic area (read: anywhere) and people-watching.

    Disney might not be as crowded as you think. If you go on a weekday the only ride that will have any semblance of a line is the Finding Nemo Submarine ride.

    Me and my girl did that for about an hour one day this summer.

    Except we played with two ducks and one bit me.

    It was great.

    It's okay. I never saw the movie (shit keeps coming up), so I can only judge it based on some of the cool things they did with the projections. It's an improvement over the old Submarine ride at least.

    Yeah, but Fiz is right. It's not great but better than the old version of it.

    There are better things at Epcot anywho, like SOARIN.
