How Pecos Bill in Disney World Slowly Declined from Perfect to Pathetic

By 15 Comments

Picture it: Lunchtime has arrived in Magic Kingdom and you can feel your stomach grumbling. 😟 It’s time to eat and you’re looking for something quick, delicious, filling, and worth your cash. Where do you go?

Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe

Once upon a time, the answer might have been Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe. Back in the day, it had a reputation for being one of the BEST quick spots to grab a burger in the Most Magical Place on Earth. These days, the menu has changed to feature more Mexican fare (though there is still a burger on the menu) and it might not always be a spot on people’s radars. But…should it be? Frankly, Pecos Bill has changed and it’s not all for the best…

Judge Rules AGAINST Disney in Important Lawsuit

By 8 Comments

Disney is involved in a variety of lawsuits right now — on everything from Park Passes to the Reedy Creek Improvement District — but we’ve got a big update on one important one.

Reedy Creek Improvement District

A lawsuit was previously filed by the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District (the new name for the Reedy Creek Improvement District) against Disney in state court in Florida. This lawsuit claims that certain agreements Disney entered into with the old Board (which the new Board claims stripped them of their power) are null and void.

The 5 Most Devastating Price Increases in Disney World in 2023

By 2 Comments

Price increases seem to be the name of the game at Disney World, but some DEVASTATING ones have hit the parks in 2023.

Magic Kingdom

Reports previously indicated that current Disney CEO Bob Iger was “alarmed by increases in prices at Disney theme parks,” which former CEO Bob Chapek felt would “boost revenue and limit overcrowding.” Though that may be the case, and Iger has brought back some FREE perks to Disney World — like free overnight parking for guests at Disney World hotels — that doesn’t mean all price increases have stopped…

Analysts Reveal What Went “WRONG” with ‘Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’

By 13 Comments

Once upon a time, the release of a new Disney movie in theaters would be a BIG event — the type your whole family would set aside time to experience together. But is that still happening?

The COVID-19 pandemic had a tremendous impact on the movie industry as a whole. And some recent Disney films simply haven’t been raking in the dough as much as some may have expected. One example could be Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, the latest film in the massive franchise. It’s been YEARS since the last Indy film, so you might have expected this one to hit theaters with a BANG…but that hasn’t quite been the case.
