Fed Up #4 - Why Do Our Favorite Attractions Get Closed and/or Replaced?

Hello there, folks. SurferClock here to bring you today's episode of "What's the Attraction?"

Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control, we don't have all of our staff on hand to record the Mission:SPACE episode scheduled for today. While we do apologize for the inconvenience that this causes, I was prepared for today and wrote a solo episode, the next in the Fed Up series!

While TAP-G and I normally alternate this segment (and he was supposed to go next), I found myself recently thinking about all of the change I've seen in the parks since my interest was first piqued in them, and how upset most of this change seems to make most folks. Anyone with any interest in this industry has experienced some form of change, but why do companies do it, even with seemingly beloved attractions? Today's Fed Up segment will dive into that...so jump right in!

WTA Speculates - The Future of Frozen in the Disney Parks

Hello, everyone! SurferClock here, along with TAP-G, to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

This week, we're taking a break from reviewing attractions to have a nice, rational discussion about a very popular film, Frozen...more specifically, its future in the theme parks. We managed to get a series of questions put together, including one question from a Facebook fan, to discuss what the future might hold in a new segment we're calling "WTA Speculates!" It's less structured than other episodes, so it's about double the length of a regular episode. We hope you enjoy it, and we encourage you to leave a comment on YouTube, Facebook, or even here if you agree, disagree, or have any input or insight you can contribute! Check the link below to listen in.

Episode 71 - Animal Actors: On Location!

How's it going, folks? SurferClock here, along with TAP-G, to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

Our jaunt along Universal Studios Florida takes us toward Woody Woodpecker's KidZone, where an interesting show sits at its forefront...before it became Animal Actors, it was...an animal show. Before that...huh, also animals. They can't all be interesting, folks. Hopefully our review will make up for it.

Anna and Elsa are here to stay, but what else could the theme parks do to bring us closer to this most memorable (and profitable!) of movies since "The Lion King?" We'll talk about that next week, so stay tuned!

Greetings, listeners. SurferClock here, along with TAP-G, to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

Last year, Universal Studios Florida received a new marquee attraction that was the talk of the town...from its announcement during a Universal Cinematic Spectacular show in fall of 2012 to Megatron's destructive appearance through the Fairwinds Credit Union building in downtown Orlando shortly before its opening, Transformers: The Ride-3D brought a whole new level of excitement to Orlando, and now, finally, we're bringing you our thoughts on it with today's episode!

Episode 68 - Rest in Pieces (20,000 Leagues Under the Sea)

Hey there, listeners! SurferClock here, along with TAP-G, to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

Yes, folks, we're a touch overdue when it comes to special episodes. Next up is Rest in Pieces, where today we pay tribute to a Magic Kingdom legend...no, not Mr. Toad (he's next, bee-tee-dubs), but Captain Nemo…join SurferClock and TAP-G as they climb aboard the Nautilus for a voyage that will take them far below the surface...in fact, they'll go 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea! This Fantasyland favorite opened a few weeks after Walt Disney World, and would sail its last in 1994. Join the boys, and Reese, and help say goodbye to an old friend, WTA-style!
