Maybe Big Daddy Chapek is opening his wallet up and bringing ME back.

Sure he is . . .
I wish he would though!

It seems a pretty obvious buy before the 1st week of May ... watch what Doctor Strange and summer season do to the price

Yep--- been holding for over a year---- (although I dont like the "ape" term..LOL) -- Yea, the summer movie list is great, but this is a major short play with the price controlled by an algorithm --- Ppl thought it would blast off after "Spiderman" and "Batman"-- its just a matter of waiting for the shorts to cover--- but (not financial advice) -- I think anything under $20 is a great price---

He sure could use some good PR right about now

You would think they would flood us with good news to distract us.

Indeed! It seems to be a positive Friday news dump ... Dapper Dans and Kitchen Sink pomp return, Plexiglass disappearing from interaction areas ... to the little victories! I'm already drinking a few beers while streaming Punisher season 1 on D+ (Punisher on D+ ?? another win!)

Were you in my house? this was my exact Friday evening!

What wasn't clear to me from the article, do they stay on or leave and get in line again?

Idk I just know his goal was actually just 50 laps and he got 55 in

I sure hope they have to get off and back in line just like the rest of us. I do remember the good ole days of ppl. mover never really having a line and they'd let you stay on if there wasn't a line, but those days seem to b long gone.

I am bored this Sunday, so I calculated: He was there for 14 hours, max possible was 84 laps. He did 66 laps, the ride takes 10 minutes, that's 11 hours. He was in line for 3 hours (or stuck on the ride).
That's an average of 2:43 minute waiting time per lap.

I am going to assume the CMs let him stay on for at least a couple of laps.
