    News Rafiki's Planet Watch is closing Oct. 21st will reopen in Summer 2019

    I would like to know this myself. Family trip planned for Christmas-New Years Day. Anybody have any info?

    News Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

    I agree with this. The building is huge and there’s no reason to think that it can be well hidden. Still, the parks have given us reason for optimism lately, in my opinion. Pandora and Toy Story Land aren’t perfect, but many of the worst fears about those projects simply didn’t come to pass...

    Christmas Holiday Season Walt Disney World 2018

    My family will be at WDW Christmas week this year, and I’m hoping we can get a family photo with Mickey and/or Minnie in their Christmastime attire. Where do you think is the most likely place we can have this opportunity?

    August 21 Solar Eclipse

    If WDW is anything like the public school I work in, the lawyers have advised against encouraging eclipse viewing at all, for fear that guests will look at the sun with unprotected eyes. That said, I'm sure plenty of folks there will come prepared and you'll see many wearing safety shades.

    Rumor All Star Resort Resturant Rumor

    I ate dinner at Boatwright's last summer while staying at POR. It wasn't packed, but there were plenty of other diners. The food was fantastic!

    August 21 Solar Eclipse

    It's only two weeks away now! All locations in the contiguous 48 states will experience at least a partial eclipse. WDW will experience 85-90 % obsucration between 2:00 and 3:00 PM. If you're in the parks that day, some cool photo opportunities may result if you have the proper camera filters...

    August 21 Solar Eclipse

    I haven't seen anything about advertised viewing locations in WDW. It will only be a partial eclipse in Florida, so most folks will be going about their day as if it were any other day, more than likely. But if you've got some safe eclipse glasses in your pocket, you'll be able to view the...

    News New Theater to be built at the Magic Kingdom - now cancelled?

    I just noticed most of the design work for bypass exterior facades has already been done!

    News Space 220 Restaurant dining experience at Epcot's Future World

    This may have already been said, but I think the menu doesn't need to be quirky or overly themed with "space"-sounding items. It could literally just be billed as a fine dining restaurant in space. Steaks, seafood, etc. ...with one heck of a view! Just like real orbiting space resort restaurants...

    News New Theater to be built at the Magic Kingdom - now cancelled?

    It sounds like this will effectively constitute a fairly sizable expansion of Main Street USA, with the theater itself but also the more frequent (or permanent) opening of the bypass along with theming there. My question is: Has Main Street USA ever before received a sizable expansion to its...

    Official name of Star Wars Land - Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge

    The name isn't all that bad, but it's hard to imagine someone in real life standing outside Keystone Clothiers, looking at a park map, and saying to their friend: "Hey, I say we head over to Star Wars Galaxy's Edge!" In my opinion the ideal option would have been to have the entire land be on a...

    Rumor and Upcoming Timeline Tracker

    I'm looking forward to this thread's big update as well. There was so much announced at D23, but we have also had rumors of other things that were not mentioned at the expo. Even with Disney's official confirmations, it will still be nice to be able to check this thread now and then!

    Rumor Pixar's Coco coming to the Mexico Pavilion

    As long as you can still get a photo with Mexican Donald, I'm ok with this.

    General Pandora and Valley of Mo'ara reviews, comments and questions

    Thanks. The reason I was asking is because any time I look for them on MDE mobile app they are not listed/labeled like other photo locations are.

    General Pandora and Valley of Mo'ara reviews, comments and questions

    Are there PhotoPass photographers regularly set up in Pandora? With the floating mountains in the background?

    August 21 Solar Eclipse

    There will Yes! Totality is the big show. My wife and I will be in our mid-60s in 2045. If God is good enough and we can be at WDW on that day we are already planning on it. There will be about 6 minutes of total darkness! Incredible.

    August 21 Solar Eclipse

    Not a bad idea. Animals do respond in strange ways during an eclipse, acting as they would at dawn or dusk mostly. It won't be a total eclipse at WDW, so I don't know how much unusual behavior you might see, but any of the animal experts at AK or AKL would probably be able to talk about that.

    August 21 Solar Eclipse

    Those would be amazing! If only they were really safe for direct solar viewing! I'm a high school science teacher. School starts for me the first week of August, so I'm making it my mission those first few days of August to make sure my kids all know that regular sunglasses won't cut it...
