    Main Street U.S.A. hub redevelopment at the Magic Kingdom

    The brown/bronze light poles are the new color scheme for the light poles in the hub. Also the new light brown pavement (which can be seen near Crystal Palace, Adventureland and patches around the hub) will also be apart of a new color scheme for the hub.

    Main Street U.S.A. hub redevelopment at the Magic Kingdom

    Those LED lights are apart of the lighting/freezing of the castle. A small increase in the lighting this year. It looks really pretty during the Electrical Parade when all the surrounding lights are off.

    Tower of Terror debuts new on-board video souvenir with Memory Maker and MagicBands

    Exactly. Plus each photographer’s photos are sent via the wifi from their camera’s PDAs to the QA server. So wifi strength or issues can account for untimely uploaded photos. Strictly Memory Maker with a magic band, otherwise it will not automatically associate to your account, and currently...

    Haunted Mansion closing for refurbishment in December and Yankee Trader refurb extended

    Rumor is instead of an On-ride Photo, we may see the first On-ride Video, with the hitch hiking ghost segment being filmed. Again rumor, but Disney is looking to adding video to its digital park media.

    Avatar construction aerial updates

    They were, until construction started and those break rooms and wardrobe areas were centralized at entertainment base for the characters that did do meet and greets at CMM and in the new theater for FOLK. Now they are the construction trailers for the third party builders.

    AVATAR land construction progress

    They are pilling rigs but not drivers, rather they are equipped with long screw drills, as i kinda stated previously, but could not post pictures as backstage has a plethora of signs saying no photos of construction.

    AVATAR land construction progress

    Two of the three large cranes that are on site have drills and are digging quite deep, at least 40 ft. I am not sure if this is just for soil tests or stabilization and progress towards foundations.

    AVATAR land construction progress

    Mostly just a lot of dirt moving, compacting soil and preparing for actual construction. There are now three or four cranes on site.

    New rope drop process at MK

    I think it has a lot to do with the heavy local demographic and many of the tourists being asian, which as stated before can be some of the politest and respectful towards characters. Another idea that came to mind may be the length that characters can be on set. In Orlando, heat and humidity...

    Main Street U.S.A. hub redevelopment at the Magic Kingdom

    Adventureland Veranda will be taken back by F&B, once Tink moves to Town Square Theater. It will probably need a nice refurb after and be seasonal but, it will be able to be opened in the future.

    New 'Winged Encounters - The Kingdom Takes Flight' macaw experience will open at Animal Kingdom

    Similar to what they do with the military macaws at Discovery Cove, very cool to see. Interested to see how far the flight pattern will be.

    New Film for Soarin' and Potential 3rd Theater

    Idk if spiderman is an accurate comparison, they kept the same exact scenes and didn’t have to reprogram the ride vehicles. Just new projectors i believe. Star Tours refurb, which changed scenes and programed movements, was from September 2010 to May 2011. So eight months. Both Star Tours and...

    SOFT OPENING WATCH - Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Coaster

    I agree, when doing projects like Falcon and Seven Dwarfs, where you are using new technologies, it is probably more important to make sure everything can function as originally planned with day to day cast and guests, than set a date only to still be tinkering with the ride to make sure it is...

    Mine Ride Construction Update

    Noticed this morning during the commercial shoot that the first lift hill has the same fin as Everest's and just like Everest was quiet while the train went up.

    SOFT OPENING WATCH - Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Coaster

    Attraction marque is up too. Not sure if anyone has shared a picture of it before. Edit: you can see some of the cottage from where they are filming but they didn't want me standing close to the equipment :( On a side note Anna and Elsa have a three and a half hour wait already, yeahhhh.

    SOFT OPENING WATCH - Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Coaster

    Shoting the commercial and ads this morning. Sorry for the blur was trying out my new telephoto lens for my iPhone. Edit: rumor has it all walls are down Thursday. But that doesn't necessarily mean soft openings. Another cast said maybe may 8th as opening, but this is all cast rumors and should...

    New atmosphere entertainment being tested at DinoLand U.S.A.

    I don’t know if "watching" is the right word, those attendants are definitely getting hit by the tail. Im just hoping it doesn’t hurt as much as it seems it would.

    7DMT Animatronics

    Idk if projection faces have the same issues. With Madame Wardrobe’s eyes, Lumiere’s face, Mr. Potatoe Head’s eyes, even Buzz Light Year all having spot lights on them and being in all different lit environments, i don’t think the lighting environment alone would directly make it so projection...

    AVATAR land coming to Disney's Animal Kingdom

    Even still i would want a mountain to be bigger than a tree lol, that is why everest is larger. Yes they are not the center icons but all parks have tertiary icons that vary from smaller (in Epcot and MK) to larger (in DHS and AK)
