Disney has shared a short video with a site update on Cotino - Disney also mentions that sales are expected to begin in 2023.
I can’t believe they’re giving updates at all…I would have thought they would try to “hide in the weeds” on this for the time being?
Sales in 2023 with move in dates of 2035 going by history
Guess the HOA would prevent my peeps from pulling up in our double wide?

Now that there is an RV, Clark
ehhhh - that's going to turn out well, in a severe drought area 😆.
I can only imagine the level of HOA Nazism that will be patrolling...
Disney has shared the first of a 4-part video series on "The Story Behind the Making of Cotino Community".

Who's idea was it to produce this video? It's the first out of a 4 part series, but is just 2 minutes of corporate buzzwords being thrown around like "storytelling" that don't even apply to Disney anymore. Is this generic housing development with Disney's name slapped onto it really going to "inspire creativity"?

This is just the beginning of the homeowner hero's journey: The call to check out real estate.

The next chapters will detail the strenuous obstacles the home hunters have, and to face and thwart the antagonist, which is the lack of water in a dessert amidst a historic drought. In the last chapter, they use their heroic power -- being a multi-millionaire -- to have water shipped into their quaint village so they can water their lawns and golf courses.
I like how on the bottom of the screen, they basically confirmed this is just another Celebration, FL.

You've never been to Rancho Mirage and/or Palm Springs, have you? The entire Coachella Valley is irrigated with water from the Sierras of Central and Northern California, and the Colorado River. It's always green, always lush, always flowering, with ponds and streams and fountains.

Especially in the golf course housing communities...

With another six weeks to go before the snow starts melting to fill up the reservoirs, California is already way above average for the entire year on snowpack. As of February 16th, 2023...

Well, that was particularly vapid. I feel dumber for having sat through it.

She's a 50 year old woman who continually uses the word "amazing" to describe normal people and average things, as if she was a 20 year old sorority girl with a stunted vocabulary. That's not a good sign. Amaaaaazing!

That someone in the marketing department still thinks they can call it "legendary Disney service" when referring to Disney CM's is alarming. What year do they think it is, I wonder? 1992? 1986? 1979? They either haven't been to the parks in the last two years to see how low CM work performance has been allowed to sink to, and/or they think it's still the 20th century.

She said so many words, without saying much. But then she said...

"Walt Disney called this his laughing place." Uh... she isn't reading the memos, is she? :oops:

I can't hear the name Cotino without thinking of Totino's...

Oh, great, now I can't either! Good thing those Totino's commercials were some of the funniest SNL has ever done.

I still sometimes wander out of my kitchen and say "Here's something for my hungry guys..." to absolutely no one. 🤣
