Yes, this is really cool! This also works fine on an original iPhone with updated software, but only with the lower-bandwidth streams. I plugged the phone into a cassette adapter in my car and now I can listen to Subsonic as I drive. It's great!

Hear hear! I like this one more BECAUSE of its smallness. I don't feel so overwhelmed, and I can actually read up on everything that's going on without spending all my free time doing it--it feels more like a community for that reason.

I agree--it's an often forgotten attraction but I think it's really good too. I try to get in there on every visit. Incidentally, last time I went on it I made this discovery that the headphones get their signal from some kind of infrared single from the celiing. If you put your hand over the top of...

Maybe the best choice to make is to say that they're all great!!! After all, when I'm at one, I rarely think to myself, "man, I sure wish I was at the other one."

After all, going to ANY Disney park is all about being truly in-the-moment. You could say it's a Zen thing.

Has anyone voted for a park OTHER THAN the one they live near / grew up with? I must confess that I voted for DLR mostly because of all the happy memories I have from it. I've been to DW twice, and thought it was FANTASTIC, and possibly believe that, in theory, it is better because it's so vast and ...

I agree. It's disappointing. Granted, I absoultely love Soarin' at California Adventure--I think it's possibly the best attraction in DCA. But it does feel cheap to just copy it like that. How hard can it be to make a new flying movie? Just rent another helicopter, strap on IMAX camera to it, and fl...

Storybook Land Canal boats has my vote. First time there I waited for an hour to ride it and wow, was my family excited once we went through the whale. The "host" was so excited, she almost fell off the back. Aww, I love the Storybook Land ride! I recommend it just at dusk before they clo...

Has anyone ever noticed that the story of "A Bug's Life" is the exact same story as the old classic, "Seven Samuri"? I'm sure it is no concidence--the cast of character-types maps exactly between the movies, and the story follows the same pattern. Even the evil characters in &quo...

Re: Incredibles & bloopers

Has Pixar ever let you down? The Incredibles is yet another masterpiece. It seems like Pixar can do no wrong. I think that all of their movies are good to varying degrees perhaps, but all good all the same. What's with Dreamworks?? It is twice now that they've produced computer animated films short...

I'd probably vote for the new Whinnie the Pooh ride at Disneyland. It's not that the ride is absolutely horrible, exactly, but just that they removed the Country Bears for that vastly inferrior thing really chaps my hide. It seems so uninnovative. It's so totally lacking in any sort of greatness wha...

In the tradition of the "What's your favorite..." topic threads, I have one that I've been thinking about for a while. What's your favorite use of audio-animatornics in the parks, past and present? This can be anything from a complete attraction that is practically nothing but (such as Pir...

I really like the bread-bowl soup things as the french market in New Orleans Square at Disneyland. They're yummy, not too expensive, and give me a full, satsified sort of feeling afterwords. Also, I like the spaghetti at the Market House at the end of Main Street. It used to be a kind of tradition f...

I really like sci-fi myself. I'm a fan if Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke particurally. I recommend "Rendezvous with Rama" and "Childhood's End" !! They're wonderful!

I'm getting this too. Eek. That is unpleasant!
