    MK Big Thunder Mountain to receive full retrack

    Sorry to see the change in paint scheme for the train cars. The yellowish color with ‘wooden’ crossbar patterned wood was iconic. Surprised this was decided to be changed. Don’t really see a need, except removing more color from the world…which seems to be a trend now. Hoping for the best...

    News Walt Disney World Launches After 2 PM Summer Ticket for 2026

    Yeah…. There is a real good reason folks do not want to visit Florida in the summertime. -

    News D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event 2026 in Anaheim

    This. Glad I went the one time I did, in 2015. No way I would try to do it now as before… Once was enough. But hypothetically if I DID decide to go again, I would do one day at the convention center….no Honda Center. I prefer the ‘smaller’ Events, and lately non-D23 related. Retro Magic is...

    Is Disneyland even worth visiting anymore?

    The short answer is YES, Disneyland is indeed worth visiting. The one and only, and it still carries that legacy and ‘Magic’. More people should make time to visit Disneyland in sunny California. Just do it…and enjoy…! 😊 -

    News D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event 2026 in Anaheim

    This. Iger getting a ‘Disney Legend’ award after …all of this…..seems ….well, excessive and self congratulatory. Smacks of a level of self righteousness that has yet to be seen. Just wow. On a more positive note, YAY ERIC GOLBERG! THE only person on the list I feel truly earns and deserves...

    Soarin’ Across America to replace Soarin’ Around the World for Nation’s 250th Birthday

    MK Cinderella Castle Set to Return to Classic Color Scheme

    So with the Castle now looking beautiful again with its refreshed paint job, can we expect a refresh of paint on this building opposite it - I don’t recall if this shop has always had these colors, but looks to me like it was repainted to match the former ‘EARidescent’ Castle hues. Would be...

    Soarin’ Across America to replace Soarin’ Around the World for Nation’s 250th Birthday

    It is not a properly themed airport …er…gliderport until it has specially themed socks. Yes, socks. Disney is leaving money on the table. To complete the real airport feeling, ‘Soarin’ needs to have socks made to resemble the carpet pattern one traverses on the way to their ‘flight’. You know...

    Soarin’ Across America to replace Soarin’ Around the World for Nation’s 250th Birthday

    Seeing this reminds me…. People always complained about the Effiel Tower looking ‘bent’ when seen from a certain angle. Straight lines on curved screens sometimes don’t work nicely together. Now…just image seeing all those ‘lines’ on the stripes of the American flag projected onto a curved...

    Disney making $1 billion investment in OpenAI, will allow characters on Sora AI video generator

    Glad this didn’t move forward. Seemed like a bad idea and a real waste of money that could be better invested elsewhere. This is good news. -

    Carousel of Progress. Do you think it should have seat belts?

    Strap me in! I will gladly rotate around for an hour or more watching ‘Carousel of Progress’. Who here will be sitting next to me…? I will be sure to smuggle in some snacks. 😎 -

    News Bluey arrives at Disneyland Park in March 2026

    I am an adult. I wouldn’t say a ‘Disney Adult’ as the term is referred to here, but a 55 year old adult who loves the Parks and has had them be a significant part of my life over the past four and a half decades. And I never had any children..never wanted em’, to be honest. I have visited and...

    News D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event 2026 in Anaheim

    The longer they wait, the higher the airfares will be due to fuel costs sky rocketing due to the Iran war happenings. For those planning to attend, I recommend start saving more money NOW. Methinks this will be a more-expensive-then-usual event. And of course….the Expo tickets will likely be...
