I knew this one family growing up. Their parents weren’t just Disney Adults, they were Disney-Fanatics. They named their son and daughter Mickey and Minnie, they dressed him in white shirt with red suspenders and her in polka dots. All their pictures hanging up were Disney, their car was painted in Disney, the parents wore Disney gear every day. Most of their conversations led back to trips to Disneyland in some way OR they would talk about the characters like they were regular people who they had interactions with. It was crazy. And even me, (at like 11) looking at these people, I knew it was crazy-town.

Ok…you absolutely cannot have random adults dressing up at Disney- because if the cosplay is good enough, it would be too hard to differentiate between the cosplayers and the actual Disney employees. That would make it way too easy for some creep in an Aladdin costume to be like “hey little girl!

When my older brother went to his high school grad night to Disney he was stunned to see many of his friends, 17-18 year old football players with star-eyed reactions to Disney Land, whereas my brother just sort of saw it as another trip to the park since my family has gone on multiple trips throughout the years. When your a kid it’s magical. What made those trips meaningful was that my parents managed it on tight budgets and made an effort to give us fun childhood experiences. However for most people, especially where we grew up, Disney Land trips were not common for many families. Obviously not everyone could afford the trip and those who go for the first time as adults when they couldn’t because of financial difficulties in their childhood are bound to have strong emotional reactions because it’s a place kids dream of going to for so long and they’re finally there. So if it was that woman’s first time there, I don’t blame her, if it was her third or any time past a second time, then yeah her reaction is a little weird. I may not like Disney as a corporation, but there are still things I find magical about it, the characters, the animation,the architecture, the art/businesshistory of the company in general is fascinating to me personally. I don’t see anything wrong with having a strong emotional reaction to something that brings out your inner child, especially if you never got to experience it like the rest of the world did when you were a kid.

When a character appeared, these adults raced and pushed the kids aside so they can take photos first!! WHAT!!! When the Disney parade started the Disney Adults took the front rows to take pictures and cheer out loud when they see certain characters while the kids were behind them unable to see.

I once knew a grown couple who had a dress-up Disney themed wedding, went to Disney World for their honeymoon, sold their home to live on a street referenced in a Disney movie, named their HUMAN SON Pluto, and their HUMAN DAUGHTER Daisy (like the duck). They'd spend every break and vacation at Disney Land, and would blow tens of thousands of dollars in a single weekend. The husband had a tattoo of the word "Disney" in the iconic font, and I remember when I was about 8 or 9 that their kids said they didn't even like Disney movies anymore because of how much they were forced to wear costumes and makeup every week for their mom's instagram pictures. The whole situation was crazy and everyone was always wildly uncomfortable around them. These people need help.

I kind of love how she reminds us throughout the video that she’s not mocking or judging the choices of other people, just explaining the concept. I love Disney, but I think it’s important to educate yourself and know that Disney is a huge conglomerate that uses religious-like emotional attachment for the purpose of profit. It’s okay to love something as a fan, maybe for nostalgia or just pure enjoyment much like sports fans- but it’s also important to understand the ultimate goal of those fandoms, which is to make money.

My childhood had quite a lot of Disney, but I grew up in Mexico. A trip to Disneyland was literally pointless and unbelievably expensive, so we just never went. What I did go to was the mummies of Guanajuato museum which sparked my obsession with Archeology.

I had fun and it was definitely magical watching her experience everything- but it did not live up to the hype. We did the “dollar store” version of Disney - only visited 2 parks, stayed off site, packed our lunches, etc.. the WHOLE TRIP ended up costing like $600 total. I can’t imagine having dropped 2-3 times that amount only to be disappointed. I’m sure I’ll go back at some point to visit the parks we didn’t get to, but I am in absolutely no rush!

I'm planning on taking my child to Disney to November but currently I'm a bit disgusted with Disney for obvious reasons. I've never been and not really a Disney fan. But, I started watching vlogs to get tips and tricks; there are adult childless KZreadrs who visit Disney multiple times a year, wear all the gear, go to character meets and treat the costumed employees like they're real. It's just so bizarre to me honestly. Some of them even cry when leaving. I don't get it.

Disney and Universal will always hold a deep nostalgia in my heart. It was a huge deal for me that I was able to go twice with my parents. I recognize the consumerism, that first video is INSANE! I remember when we were at Harry Potter World I got picked to do the wand selection at Ollivander’s and my parents were so hesitant to purchase the wand for me because it was $55 but they did it anyways. I can’t imagine spending 3 thousand USD in ONE DAY! I had like a $30 spending limit for each park to buy souvenirs. My mom was so sweet though and would sneak out each morning at our resort and surprise me with a gift each morning, my favourite was when she gave me Mickey ears I really wanted. Okay now I’m just rambling. I guess I have a lot of good memories haha.

I get why that woman was crying, it brings a nostalgic longing for what we don't have anymore. I mean maybe that's not why she's crying, but that's how I interpreted it. I remember snuggling up to my dad as a little girl watching Peter Pan, and then holding his hand while we went on the ride. I'm 24 now and it makes me tear up a little knowing that all of that childhood magic will never come back and that it's over now. That's part of growing up. But I think it's okay to miss that feeling. I REALLY like Brett and her videos but maybe she just can't relate to that feeling because, well, it wasn’t a part of her childhood and she doesn't have those same memories.

My kids love to watch buddy Davis on there. Worth it for just that to prep a month before you go. People think of things like Noah’s Ark as some sort of cartoon, but what they claim is things like Noah got the animals to came on two by two, when scripture never said that kids songs and books painted that picture in our minds. Read Genesis 1-11 and John 1. I would actually love to see those museums expand. Our family is actually in science too. Whenever I hear about how God spoke through Jesus as the physical of God I pictured the atom’s vibrating into perfection. Look up resonance experiments, they don’t have anything on that type of science yet, that’s just my own thought that they should. I’ve personally experience supernatural things in my relationship with God. But when it comes to history and science the Bible doesn’t contradict what’s Known, what’s known always proves the Bible. Problem is most people need to humble and get back to the basics not only of Bible come up but of science, sans the nonsense that everyone loves to add. It’s not about seeking our truths, it’s about seeking the truth.

I'd like to see your thoughts on the Star Wars Celebration cosplay videos with this in mind. Dressing up for those conventions is not only allowed but probably encouraged! And the quality some people put into their outfits is heckin impressive like an art.

Thank you for touching this subject. I recently went to Disney World and thought some of these "adults" were weird, and how Disney has sucked all the fun out of visiting their parks.

30 years ago, we were able to see the entire park as a family. 8 years ago I went with my oldest and granddaughter. It was so crowded, we saw 1/3 of the park.

Given what Disney has become as a company in recent years, though, there is no way my husband and I are taking our kids now. Universal all the way!

Some people love fandoms, Disney included. As someone who is naturally is more imaginative and has been since a child, much of Disney is close to my heart. Loving a world a fantasy is not a bad thing if you don’t let it overtake your life.

Imagination, innovation, hard work, achievement, dreams, and the pursuit of happiness. It’s just the corporatist takeover of Walt’s beloved company that should be condemned.

I had a best friend who you would probably consider a “Disney Adult.” She was in her mid to late 20’s. Had season passes. Loved their dapper days and dressing up for the occasion. Loved the movies. She was also a devout Christian. The most christlike person I have ever known. She didn't lack love of God or religion. She just loved Disney. These things made her happy and there is no shame in that. Where is it written that once we “grow up” we are no longer to enjoy the delights of a childlike spirit? It's not. I love Brett and many of her takes, but this isn’t one I would expect her to understand because she really had no childhood. I understand what Disney is- good and bad. I've seen how the movies changed. I see how the parks are changing. I understand it is not to be trusted. Carolyn passed in 2020. She never saw what Disney became and part of me is very grateful for that. But we shouldn’t be shaming those like her. The girl in that tik too probably spent her entire childhood watching those movies and seeing the commercials about the place where all those characters and all that magic comes to life. For her, this was likely a childhood dream that she was never able to make a reality until adulthood. Who doesn’t feel immense joy when they finally experience something they spent a lifetime dreaming of? We all do.

Many people, including me, love it for nostalgia reasons. It doesn’t change much and feels just like it did when you went with your dad, who’s now gone. You can share it with your own kids and almost pass down those same precious memories to them. The world changes but Disneyland feels like getting in a time machine.

Hi! Disney adult here (or maybe call me a disney teen bc I’m only 19)- I went to Disney as a kid so now as an adult it’s a nostalgic and comforting place for me. It’s a place to enjoy time with my family and have fun.I didn’t lose my mind over not being able to not dress up in costume. “Disney bounding” is just a fun way to wear Disney themed outfits. It’s really nothing more than that. I would also like to point out that Disney these days thrives on the selling of alcoholic beverages, especially at their food events which normally run year round. While Disney certainly started off as a place marketed towards kids, you can’t deny that they have things that are for just adults now too. I’m a Christian, so thankfully I have filled my spiritual void with something other than Disney lol. While I find my main peace and comfort in Christ, Disney World has been a comforting place to me the past few years as I have been dealing with very bad illness. It makes me happy, just like going to a Taylor swift concert or sports game does for some people. I do NOT like how the Disney company as a whole has been politically these days- and I don’t support a lot of the child indoctrination they spew now. When I was a kid, Disney was not like that, and nothing beats classic good movies like beauty and the beast or Cinderella. They already have gone too far and if they continue to do so, i really will have to reconsider my love of Disney. I will say Disney has gotten expensive over the years, but as you said you can always budget and do Disney for way less than that woman on tik tok. I go often and im not forced to buy stuff bc the lines are “so long” in fact 120 minutes is not really the norm unless it’s spring break or Christmas. Anyways, that’s just my thoughts, everyone please be nice. Liking something a lot shouldn’t be automatically seen as creepy.

I go every year and even if I'm not visiting the parks, being in the presence of Disney just does something I can't explain. Obviously nothing fills the void like Christ but I see nothing wrong as well with a person loving Disney SO MUCH because I know how that feels. Besides there is SO MUCH more than Disney to visit as well in Orlando, but no Florida vacation feels the same without stepping somewhere onto Disney property for me.

My stepson's mom is so obsessed with Disney. They go every year, and her house is like stepping inside a Disney shrine. To each their own, I guess.

I think that you should attempt to take them at least once as you said. It’s more common for adults to have these types of reactions especially if they’ve never gone and always wanted to go. Many kids I grew up around never went because their families couldn’t afford it, I think it’s worse to be able to afford it and knowingly withhold it from them. My little sister even knows Disney is a shit company, I complain about it often enough she can see the film qualities have gone down, yet still wants to take her best friend this summer since her parents would never put the effort in to take her themselves and doesn’t want to leave her friend with that childhood craving.

I've never been to Disney, but I took a week long senior trip to Yellowstone National Park back in September. It was much more magical, majestic, and beautiful than anything Disney could ever dream up. Not to mention the fact that it was a whole lot cheaper. It's pretty sad that participation in an institution set up by the government is less expensive than something made for literal children.

I was aware that in the US there's a a huge hype and cultish following of Disney pilgrims, because I have relatives in Florida. But I was never into Disney things.

I once visited the Chelsea FC store in Chelsea and (wanted to buy my dad a souvenir) and I was 100% got caught in the marketing and consumerism thing. i was so entrapped and in awe I wanted to buy everything even if like 5min ago I didn't even cared about Chelsea FC. Thank goodness I have some restraint and just got my dad a ring, and left 😂 its a powerful feeling, needing to be part if something so well designed and developed with a single purpose, people to buy as much stuff as possible.

The changes they’ve made to the parks has been on the decline to where I have not wanted to go at all. However, to write off the parks only as a place for kids is throwing out the legitimate work done by these imagineers which are some of the most brilliant storytellers I’ve listened to. At the the same, Disneys current projects just give ammunition against my argument since they feel cheap and lazy.

I'm a 37 year old who grew up going to Disneyland. It's 100% nostalgic for me. I find myself torn because in my logical brain I know how stupidly corrupt Disney has become and not at all what Walt Disney invisioned. Then, you have the emotional/heart side where I absolutely love going to Disneyland. Ugh. I sicken myself even haha. It's a love/hate relationship. Totally don't trust them, but I just want to go to Disneyland without their sick agenda behind it. The tangled webbs we weave....

I was a Disney movie kid, but not really a Disney Channel kid. And I never did go to the parks mostly because I’m terrified of mascots, and the thought of a giant Mickey, or a goofy interacting with me sent chills up my spine. In fact, the only Mickey anything I actually enjoyed was Fantasia with the broomsticks and that’s because he didn’t talk.

Disney has definitely changed and it makes me a bit sad. I still love Disney though. The tik tok seems like they didn't do their research about pricing and when to visit the parks. They went during one of the busiest times of the year (spring break), did the extremely expensive light saber build and probably didn't use the lightning lane to their advantage.

But to some people who doesnt have a disney land or any theme park in their country, its a luxury, a dream, a bucketlist. Some people Dream to visit Paris.....I dream to visit disneyland.

I just had an amazing week-long trip to the UAE all the way from Texas and it still managed to be slightly cheaper than my last trip to Disney. It felt more rewarding and memorable too.

I'm a Disney fan for sure, along with Pixar. And it was an important part of my childhood.

And with all the remakes, shitty movies, and bad decisions Disney has been making, it has genuinely hurt and offended me and my "inner child" or childhood nostalgia. But I'm most definitely not OBSESSED with Disney! I dont obsess over most things actually, and when I find myself reaching a point of obsession, I stop myself. Because it's unhealthy! And weird!

I hate the woke stuff as well! I went to Disney for the first time about a couple years ago and we had such a great time! But you will never see Disney themed things in my home. It can be a great vacation without revolving your life around it. I love the parks and will enjoy it when I'm able to!

Wow. I was raised on a few movies and no cable too. So grateful.

My boys have never been Disney fans and despite their mom (my ex) and I asking if they would ever like to go to Disneyland or Disney World, they have always said, no, even when Make A Wish offered to send us for free. They cited the long lines, obscene prices, and their general lack of interest in Disney properties, though they do like Marvel, Star Wars and some Pixar. I have fond memories of going to DL when I was a kid. But that was because our annual excursion was paid for by my grandfather's company. General Dynamics used to rent out the park one night a year for the families of employees, and it was awesome. WHen I went back as a teenager on a regular day (30+ years ago) and saw how insane the prices and lines were I was shocked. I went back once more as an adult, when it was part of attending a conference and only went on two rides because of how insane the lines were. My boys and I are planning a long overdue trip to SoCal in the next year, but we will skip DL instead planning to go to Knots Berry Farm and Six Flags to hit the roller coasters and load up on Boysenberry everything.

Oh and Brett said about not being aware of Disney during her upbringing, my parents showed me a Disney film as a kid and my response was (why are they all singing? People don't act that way!) And they realised Disney wasn't for me. I watched Robocop when I was 9, I loved it. I think Brett should watch Robocop and see if she picks up on the "predictions" it made and the satire.

I'm sorry but I laughed at the "why are they all singing?" part. Have you watched any movies where the Disney formula was parioded?

Not all of us are into musicals. I don't like them one bit. It's cringey. It's like an audible fancy cheese grater to my ears. I like music. I don't like musicals.

I'm not a big Disney person but I do love musicals and sing a LOT (not so as to annoy anyone though) so it's totally fine if you don't like them but it's funny to me when people think it's "unrealistic", it's a movie so of course it isn't real, and to someone who loves music it's not quite as unrealistic.

I do think you are missing out on some great movies because you don't watch musicals. Some are better than others but I think Fiddler on the Roof, Hunchback of Notre Dame, and Prince of Egypt are great movies even if you dislike musicals.

I’m a brazilian who loves Disney, but not even close to Disney adults😂 Unfortunately my country ia going through dark times, right now they’re trying to censor the information we have access on the internet, even Google was censored because they said censoring is bad. I love Brett’s channel, but it may become unavailable very soon for me 😢

Dang.. ❤🇧🇷 I am sending you all my best wishes (as if we, 🇺🇸, are doing much better). The West was amazing while the freedoms lasted.

As someone who grew up on the classic Disney movies like Cinderella, Snow White, and Sleeping beauty, I am so sad that my childhood has changed. Disney has pushed so much onto young children and I would never allow my potential future children to watch anything made by that company.

This makes me so sad. We used to have Disney passes and my mom would take me, my brother, and my cousin to when we were all babies and toddlers and now I can’t even think about Disney without thinking of all that they represent now

I've heard of Disney bounding. I actually think it's pretty fun to see how people create "costumes" out of their regular clothes.

It is actually really fun, especially when putting the outfit together. I Disney Bounded as Captain Hook once.

I'm not a big Disney fan anymore, but me and family always enjoyed going to the thrift store for our bounding outfits. An entire Disney wardrobe for $20 with matching accessories? Don't mind if I do! We'd always pick out stuff we wouldn't normally wear (like sparkly shirts, dresses, whatever) then get the photo people to take loooaaadssss of pictures of us bahahaha

I have a brother who’s a Disney adult. He refused to listen to me when I said that Bob Iger’s return wasn’t going to fix Disney because he started a lot of these issues. He’s just really nostalgic and doesn’t follow the news surrounding Disney like I had; probably because I was invested more in Star Wars and Marvel and never really forgave Disney for messing up those franchises lol.

@@lancethefilmguy9392 No, he just blames everything on Bob Chapek. I couldn't convince him that Disney had problems before his tenure.

To be fair, this is a luxury trip to Disney and it can be done on a budget. We travel to Disney Florida from England and we always to a shop at Walmart to buy foods and snacks, and we always go on off season so its cheaper and less crowded.

My only issue I see with the not allowing costumes/cosplay rule is that people aren't even allowed KH outfits despite Disney not even having KH in the parks.

I was a big history nerd and I went to DC with my family at age 10 instead of Disney world. I was really happy with that choice!
