They are verbatim what was on the official info. He was absolutely reading from the media packet.

Fair enough if he genuinely changed his mind. However I don't think he did. I think he's towing the line for media perks. Also possible that Disney wanted info out there but knew another official video would go down like the last one did. So they're pushing it through the influencers instead.

As a reminder, here was his first video about it. He was not happy at all...

He might. I was just answering the comments that he is keeping Disney sweet, because it makes no sense that he would above people that watch his channel.

He was still reading out briefing notes though, this was evident, it wasn’t his way of speaking.

His Regs will continue to watch regardless. If he keeps Disney sweet he will get invited to more and more press releases if he does that he gets more eyes.

Look this video he was the first to drop one and is getting alot of views as a result as he can break the news.

Or maybe he took notes during his preview? I get it, Disney is greedy but I highly doubt they would dictate what vloggers are allowed to say!

I am sure nobody is suggesting they are holding Bianca hostage and forcing him to read out their briefing notes. But he was, of his own choice, reading out notes that had been written by Disney, it was not his way of speaking.

This… what does everyone think would happen if he returned to his “I’m really worried for people that can’t pay” views from his last genie video?

No more press briefing freebies for dev.

Hell I’d probably do the same if I was him.

He said that if you buy the Genie+ at $15 per person, per day and also the LL passes that you need that you then have LL access to all of the rides on the list too? If you can afford the extra then its a no-brainer if thats the case? But if you've saved for years like many do, then its a lot extra on top of an already expensive day out.

eg. we are a family of 3 and we have paid for just 1 day at Disney, this has cost £248. add to the 3 x $15 and then the LL we want (ROTR which is about $15) so that another $90. Thats a super expensive day

people do change their mind about things. There is only 1 ride that i may consider paying for and that is ROTR. We will see regarding the genie+ how busy it is. It doesn't work out very well generally for how we do things - we get there before rope drop, go somewhere else at lunch time then back in the evening so i don't think we would get our moneys worth. However, if we did just do a few days then we would spend more time in the parks and this would work out well. I can see it would work better for people that go for shorter trips. It means that all the afternoon/evening 'fast passes' aren't gone for the day 60 days out. I know it costs us more money but unfortunately everything is going up in price. It is a business after all
