The huge line to meet Jack & Sally:
The meet and greet for Jack & Sally has been closed for the night. It topped out at a 3 hr line.
Already about 40 people in line to meet Jack Skellington and Sally in DTD at 4:24pm. Arrive 6pm
That is impressive! Glad to see the fans show TDO what could be at anything remotely new with a target audience over the age of 7. :Skellington:
Still a long line to meet Jack & Sally for their last night at Downtown Disney and its starting to rain:
I got one better,
Disney, if you announce to the world your idiots and have completely blown this opportunity from the beginning I will buy my wife and I annual passes upon my return from the real Disney resort DL no later than Oct 10th!
I'm not joking! :skellington:

WDI tried to bring the Nightmare overlay to Orlando years ago but TDO keeps saying the characters will not be as well received because most visitors to WDW are foreign or don't know the characters. Fact is Jack Skellington is very well known and has been a marketing and merchandise phenomenon for years.
My point is Disney management has shot themselves in the foot for far to long and it's time capitalize on it. These characters should have be in the MK during Halloween operations for years and yet they half ass it again by shipping them to DTD for their first appearance. If people are willing to wait 3 hours at DTD nearly 20 years after the film was released how could these characters impact ticket sales if you did a Holiday overlay around them at the worlds most visited themepark? Merchandise sales anyone?
California and Japan have shown these overlays and character meet and greets to be an overwhelming success and go as far as adding new features to the overlay each year. There seems to be members at TDO who have their head so far up their asses or IMO are not willing to admit their wrong that they would rather stick to their guns and continue to say it won't work here, when the rest of the Disney parks scratch their heads in bewilderment.
To sum up that rant into one sentence,
TDO has dropped the ball on this from the beginning...
