Sad to hear this news. Nemo became my stage show of choice on property when I did the CP in 2014 (FoLK wasn't running because they were building the new theater at the time) and it was a delight every time. I took my parents to see it when they came to pick me up at the end of my program. My...
I had to ride Star Tours five times last trip (September 2018) before I got a single scene or character from the new trilogy. Funny to see others having the opposite issue.
I feel like we're in some kind of Keanussance, with the amount of work he's been getting lately. Between John Wick 3, TS4, and showing up at E3 (for Cyberpunk 2077) - he's everywhere!
I knew this was coming, thought about it when I was in WDW two weeks ago watching the fireworks - still such a bummer to read this news. Nothing lasts forever, but I have so many memories with Illuminations. From my one and only childhood visit, to having to hear my brother's marching band play...
Makes sense. Is the trail going to be completely gone post-Tron construction? Smoke aside it was a beautiful walk, shame to have quiet spaces like that disappear entirely (although with the buzz of a new ride around it, it probably wouldn't be that quiet to begin with.)
Glad they moved the Tomorrowland one. The other areas are moderately out of the way and condensed, but walking the trail to Storybook the other night the smokers were spread out throughout a majority of it.
I've made myself a PB&J Milkshake (50's Prime Time Cafe) multiple times back home. Not nearly as good as the original, but enough to get me by when I have a craving for one!
Speaking of music from Wishes, I've got a bit of an odd request.
There's the initial announcement audio ("In just 15 minutes…"), which then segued into an orchestral version of "A Dream is a Wish…", and a few other songs. I have tried for years now to find that orchestral audio. If anyone has...
I've got a bit of a different perspective here, as I was a custodian in the MK a few years ago. I spent a lot of time in the bathrooms. None were very 'fun' to clean, but if I had to pick a favorite it would be the Splash Mountain ones. Pretty quiet most of the time, loved the soundtrack loop...
Via Napoli is hands down my favorite restaurant on property. I love the space, love the pizza, and seriously - try the fried mozzarella there if you ever have a chance. I dream about it on the regular.
Other places I enjoy - Yak and Yeti QS ($3.50 or so for a giant serving of fried rice is my...
I used to love watching the Banjo Bros set while waiting for FoF to step off. One time I actually shared an elevator backstage with two of them and was incredibly starstruck. Made sure I let them know that they were great and one of my favorite smaller things about WDW. Really sad to hear this. :(
I did a BTS tour of Mansion when I was doing my College Program, and we were told that there were plans in place to bring the overlay in a few years ago, that were eventually axed. The most logical reason being that WDW is more of a 'once in a lifetime' destination, vs the local pull that DL...
Low key glad that the menu will remain the same. I know plenty of people hate Disney Parks pizza, but it was always a guilty pleasure to me. I spent plenty of afternoons there during my college program eating my mediocre pie and relaxing. And as a Muppets fan, I'm looking forward to the new theming!
