How did today's AP "priority access" work today at HM? Long lines? Also, we heard yesterday about the Constance portraits not working yet, the missing "hitchhiking ghosts" narration, raven audio missing, and this rumored "air blast". Any updates on those today?

I'm curious if WDW will add any music to the renovated attic to go with the Haunted Mansion's new bride. Back in the 90's, Disneyland's attic received an organ, played by a shadow seen on the wall (much MUCH better than the WDW shadow organist after the library). That organist plays "Here...

Two questions: Any word on whether the new castle Christmas lights will be turned on every night, or just during MVMCP? Also, since it does not appear on any rehab schedules, I'm guessing the Country Bear Christmas show will not be returning this year, either? (I remember there was...

Anyone know if the Ghost Host's "lost tracks" of audio will be restored in the renovated Haunted Mansion? For the longest time, the DL and WDW versions had the identical narration from the Endless Hallway to the end of the ride. However, during a rehab of the DL Mansion in the mid 90's (the...

Any word on whether the County Bear Christmas show is coming back this year? Also, anyone ever find out exactly why they cut the show last year? Rumors included using the budget for an overhaul, for Mansion, or to test the waters to see if it would be missed.

The rumor that will not die has just been dealt another blow. In the print edition of the Orlando Sentinel (I can't find the online version), Disney denies that the entire MGM theme park is being re-named "Disney-Pixar Studios". However, Disney did confirm that the area around Toy Story...

This is about as "breaking news" as it gets. I live within firework-viewing distance from the MK, and just TEN minutes ago was startled to see what appears to be a brand new fireworks show being launched. The show started at midnight (the park closed at 10pm tonight). Living so close...

Ladies and gentlemen: place your bets! Who do you think the new Spaceship Earth narrator should be...and why? My pick is Walter Cronkite, and not just because he was one of the original narrators of SSE. Assuming SSE will still have the same theme, I think Cronkite is as important of a...

There have been a lot of threads from people claiming that EPCOT Center (1982 to the late 90's) was the "educational" park, and that it's original intent was to "learn" something. Alright folks. Time to put your money where your mouth is. What did YOU learn at EPCOT? How did this...

The new Living Seas is AWFUL! (and I will always call it "The Living Seas", because that's what the original Imagineers intended, and since they came up with the name first, that is the only one that should be used. Ever.) The pavillion is DESTROYED! A beach for a queue? What's up with...

I've read a few rumors scattered across some threads suggesting Turtle Talk may be relocating to one of the old "Living Seas" theaters, and that the current "Nemo and Friends" module (with Mr. Ray's Lagoon and the clownfish tanks) will be gutted to make way for the queue. Does anyone have...

Here we go again. Another Epcot pavillion is about to unveil a controversial make-over. Most people seem excited to see that "The Seas With Nemo and Friends". But there have also been some very vocal about the "dumbing down" of Epcot, and how the park is no longer "what it was supposed to...

I'm not sure if I should be starting a new thread on this, but I hope to add some new info that hasn't been discussed yet. EXTERIOR/QUEUE Pirates "movie" music is now pumped throughout Caribbean Plaza (such as above/behind the restaurant, fountain, and Frontierland entrance) tying the whole...

I'm looking for a jpg of an old WDW resort map (around 1979). It is a very colorful, whimsical map with cartoon images that shows the entire property. I had originally found it on a website a few years ago and have since forgotten which site it's on (I've already searched EVERYWHERE for it)...

As the grand opening approaches, what effects on Everest are still not working? As of a few weeks ago, the steam from the train, the cold mist going into and out of the mountain, and the Yeti himself were not working. Are those back up again? And have they blocked the light coming into...

A thought just hit me. I wonder if there's any chance Disney will relocate the Timekeeper animatronic to the new Pirates of the Caribbean? Disney has relocated animatronics in the past. At DL, a few of the "America Sings" geese became droids at "Star Tours", and of course, the rest of the...

Over the next few weeks, I think it might be interesting to keep track of Everest's status, especially when it comes to special effects. Today (3/5) Everest was running an 80 minute wait around 1:30 pm. *The steam was NOT working. *The cold fog going into and out of the mountain was NOT...

Unbelievably, it looks like Hong Kong is getting it's own version of "Stitch's Great Escape"! That's the LAST attraction you'd think of Disney wanting to clone. It's unclear from the article what "UFO Zone" will be. The long-rumored Flying Saucers? Or is it a water-squirt midway game...
