Actually it’s only at 2872 signatures. Their GOAL is 5000 signatures. Disney is about as likely to “reinstate” them (as in, start inviting them to media events again) as they are to reinstate the Trader Sam “two of his heads for one of yours” scene at the end of Jungle Cruise.
How silly. If J/T aren't happy they can complain to WDW.
You are right.. I read that wrong thanks
If you are good at the YouTuber thing you can make a lot of money. My daughter's favorite YouTuber is worth about $25 million according to Google.
I get you, I feel that they should " use" Jackson when appropriate... like when talking about child swap or visiting under 5 attractions. Those tips are very helpfull to people with young children.
I understand but when does a comp become in some way a bribe? I know a lot of the You Tubers and vloggers get them but I like the Dis bc they do not play that game. A while back Pete had said he was not going to do restaurant reviews anymore because they were too recognizable. The way to stop a review is to comp (apparently, Maria and Enzo did not know this lol....if you have seen that review). I get it, but now anytime Tim does a review I am always suspicious and so there goes the trust and the reason to watch his vlog. I also feel like when he is reviewing something un-comped, he is "auditioning" for a comp. He is not the only one but he is the most visible.
I'd like Disney to stop comping any of them. The situation has gotten out of control and the world does not need this many people trying to make their living as Disney vloggers, particularly when they are being paid by Disney itself. Whether or not they are paid in food, lodging, park tickets. or other benefits they are paid advertisers for WDW and they are negatively impacting the parks experience.
For me. YMMV.
I agree with you. I think that when you watch a commercial on TV or see an add in print, you clearly know the intentions of that ad. However, when a vlogger is comped it is a little more slick and insidious I mean really how many times can you show the many, many usb ports for charging a device in a hotel room ( a Tim staple in a comped room) and call it a special feature of the room. Truth be told you can bring your own charger and cord and charge anything you want to so PLEASE don't pour water on my leg and tell me it's rain(this was abridged for posting purposes). Some of the non-meaningful stuff these vloggers build up like the shape of the plates or robes hanging in a closet at an upscale resort or timeshare kill me. Like really, first who wants to wear t a robe that someone else wore, and who cares what shape the plates are in the cabinet.
That's an interesting viewpoint. I can't say I fully disagree. I think maybe the first time someone gets noticed by Disney maybe treat them but after that maybe not so much.
Yeah and he closed his patreon
The comps aren't as frequent or big as you imagine. It's not easy to be a very good vlogger. And a just ok or crummy vlogger doesn't get the much needed large number of views.
