    News Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance Standby Line and Boarding Groups at Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I got 110 yesterday, but was really frustrated that the app wouldn’t let me join a group (button greyed out) despite following all the guidance from cast members and friends to use cellular, until I gave up and used the WiFi about 40 seconds after opening time. Not sure if this is because I’m...

    REVIEW - Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo at Disney's Hollywood Studios

    As many have said, I don’t really understand why parts of the land have been designed to be small, with the Cantina and DB7 being the worst offenders. Whatever the excuse might be (DLR clone, cosy by design etc.) it doesn’t make sense to me? Surely you’d want to make use of the available space...

    Rumor Version of MaxPass coming to WDW in May?

    Would paid-for FP also apply to the folks staying on-property? If those staying on-site also lose their FP entitlement then I’ll honestly fail to see what benefit staying with Disney offers, especially as someone with a DVC timeshare. Taking away that privilege would be a step too far. *To be...

    News Announced: Mary Poppins Attraction in UK Pavilion

    If I were Disney management trying to save a few $$$ I’d ditch the idea of a carousel that moves. Let’s get a static one for people to ride and trip a little strobe fantastic.

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Haven’t realised until now how less “open” the CA version is. Understand there’s less space to work with over there, but looking at how the pathways narrow due to the railroad and how guests will be required to walk quite close to the facades in some areas, do we think the DHS version will...

    News PhotoPass at some character locations being replaced by automated cameras

    Just tried out the new automated camera at Town Square Theatre. Bought a dozen prints for the extended family.

    PizzeRizzo Closing or Receiving Menu Changes?

    Table service options, other than MM, isn’t all that enticing at DHS in my opinion. Making use of this space, I’d Love to see a Muppet themed table service restaurant with Skipper Canteen/Be Our Guest level theming. Even if a portion remained dedicated to QS, there’s a lot of space available here.

    Rumor New Monorails Coming Soon?

    Who let this guy in? Just FYI, any posts which do not, at a minimum, include at least one of the following will be deleted by a moderator: 1. A reference to Walt turning in his grave 2. Suggesting that Disney is destroying the resort by filling it with IP 3. A request for Bob Iger to leave the...

    Tom Sawyer Island - 2 Month Refurb

    I wish they’d close TSI and expand Frontierland. I love the river boat and the whole area looks very pretty, but there’s so much potential to open the land up, increase the footprint and create more attractions. Sorry for anyone who’s a fan of the island, I respect that, but I think there’s...

    News Disney to launch new Vacation Planning site to help guests with date-based tickets

    They’re investing in some great stuff, I agree. But they also seem hellbent on running what they have at the moment on a margin that’s tighter than Elastagirl’s suit. Great business sense, unless your income comes from people on vacation who do require a bit of spontaneity. I’m not saying Disney...

    News Disney to launch new Vacation Planning site to help guests with date-based tickets

    Anyone else absolutely hate the term “vacation planning” now? Sure elements of MM+ (the app, MagicBands etc) are excellent but you can easily see through it’s flashy exterior. And this ticket pricing is another example of corporate micromanagement being forced onto guests, but dressed up as...

    News Speedier Wi-Fi at Port Orleans French Quarter

    I hope that upcoming streaming service Iger and Co. keep pushing will be included on the in-room TVs. I agree the wi-fi is dated, but not having on-demand movies and content on the TVs is a missed opportunity for the world’s biggest media company with thousands of people staying on their...

    Rumor Is Indiana Jones Planning an Adventure to Disney's Animal Kingdom?

    You made it! I knew you would. And guess who made it back with you? I better find him before security does...

    News Dragon caught fire in today’s Festival of Fantasy parade

    Self-sabotage for budget cuts? Anyone? Come on, there must be some lunatic on here thinking this?!

    Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I’ve seen quite a few grumblings in this thread about the speed of Toy Story Land’s construction. But to be fair, it’s an improvement on the mine train...
