OK but this better have at least one song in.

If I can figure out how to stop buffering (was a huge issue on my Roku and Samsung TV I would definitely do movies like this from now on. My wife and I like to watch movies with subtitles. My kids do better when we can pause and they can go to the bathroom.

But 4 masks for $19.99 is a much better price than I've seen anywhere else!! Having tried my hand at making face masks, they are fiddly to make and hard to get to fit well.

If they're still offering these when we go and if i feel better wearing a mask, I'll be ordering some to be shipped to our resort for sure! international shipping and Disney = EXPENSIVE!!

More important..... this is a DISNEY PRODUCT. Consider it to be a "Get out of Jail Free" card, at Security.
We have many better masks.... and I'm amazed that Disney took on a potential liability issue .
Regardless - 2 sets of four ordered. We want that "LOOK - it's a Disney Mask" ticket, at Security.

If, and that's a big if, they make masks mandatory for guests at Disney, I do not think they will be checking the quality of said mask.

Mouth and nose covered? You're in.

The way things seem to be trending in California I would fully expect it to not happen - I don't think California will have any large gatherings the rest of the year

I know the WWE is looking at a back up location for WrestleMania next year as they aren't confident California will allow large gatherings even next March

 

[Dean Marino]

I wish they hadn’t cheaped out on these. It doesn’t look like they’re layered with a filter pocket. Kind of *extra* pointless without. When we get back to the parks we’d like something with more than just a few percent protection.(autoimmune family here) Oh well.

WE ordered these for one reason: An Official Disney Product. Hence? A "Get out of Jail Free" card, at Security.

Umm... what?

 

[Farro]

Umm... what?

I think he's saying Disney security may turn people away for masks they deem inappropriate, but if you have a Disney-made mask, they will let you in for sure.

I said Disney isn't going to bother checking quality. As long as it covers nose/mouth, it will be fine. If they even require masks.

This will have my complete support if they make this one casting.

A side-lesson to be learned in this story is to always check the expiration date on products purchased in these Covid times as suppliers will still try to dump off old products if they can. I've noticed on things I typically don't check expiration ... frozen goods at my grocery store were being sold well past their use-by date. I saw boxes of granola bars, that while probably still edible, were on the store shelf with a use-by date almost a full year past.

I'd buy them.. just for the bottles!

I guess it makes sense .. Disney (or their suppliers) have to do something with the excess. Though .. seems like some distributor will probably get in trouble for this one.

It does give people an idea what's probably going to be put in place at parks.

With every Josh video, I like him more and more. I'd love to walk the parks with him, he has such a great vibe.

Less crowding (forced limited capacity) and virtual queuing (all things we've wanted at WDW) ... could be a great thing that comes out of this pandemic for theme parks, though I am not sure what the parks will do with all the people if they aren't standing in an 30-60 minute line. But .. if there is limited capacity, there may not be long lines anyway.
