Whoopi Invasion!

As if the over-marketing for Whoopi at Golden Dreams in Disney's California Adventure wasn't enough, she's now invaded the Universal Studios Hollywood Tram Tour.

Is she going to take over another theme park in marketing herself soon?

I'm not much of a fan of it all...what really irks me is the Tram Tour I guess. Ron Howard is an A-lister...Whoopi not so much. Ron was current with Universal's movies and wasn't cheesy either.

Thoughts? Knowledge of other deals she has in the works?

Re: Whoopi Invasion!

Whoopi just signed a multi-picture deal with Universal, and I presume that the hosting duties was part of the contract....

Re: Whoopi Invasion!

Yeah, what a waste of good Tram time.

No new material either. She says the same stuff that Ron Howard did. Of course, she also talks (way too much) in other segments. I could really care less about what movies she made back in the 80's. Pretty boring stuff if you ask me.

I say less Whoopi and more movie stuff.

(I also let the customer relations booth know about my feelings, for what it's worth)

Re: Whoopi Invasion!

Hmm, your information may be incorrect; I read that the Universal Tram ride will actually be hosted by Tennessee Tuxedo's, Mr. Whoopee.
