    Glidden's Colortopia opening in Epcot's Innoventions later this year

    And now we can literally watch paint dry thus making it one of the most exciting attractions at Epcot. I wonder what sort of deal TDO is getting to have Gliddens repaint older DVC units. I would rather see Disney Research go into Innoventions. They actually do some neat stuff that gets picked...

    A Spirited Perfect Ten

    I've noticed that myself. Ever since Al took ill & Dusty took over, Micechat just wants to be another life-styler site. Shame.

    Magic Kingdom/WDW's 50th Anniversary

    If the parks are packed and the hotels are packed why bother even acknowledging the 50th in any sort of extravagant form? Cupcake and Special Edition map...Done. #kidding/notkidding (knowing TDO's history)

    Is Disney planning an Egyptian theme park?

    Sounds very far fetched, tourism has been dropping like a rock in Egypt the last couple of years since the uprising in 2011. Plus you might as well just paint a giant target on the castle if they ever did build a park there. I am thankful I got to visit the region when it was still stable...

    STK restaurant to open at DTD

    Hope you're right about that list. Friends took us to The Edison in LA. Great place. Adult bar with Disney level theming!

    STK restaurant to open at DTD

    Oh for sure about prices. I was speaking more about atmosphere. Doesn't look family friendly. Not that that's a bad thing. I fall into the same category as you described. But we aren't the typical WDW guests.

    STK restaurant to open at DTD

    Well I checked out the menu. It's just another steak house food wise. Nothing to get excited about (for me anyway) HOWEVER the interior looks great! Very upscale and lounge like. I wonder how it will go over with the typical WDW crowd? I don't see it working IMHO unless they change the concept...

    STK restaurant to open at DTD

    Meh. I'll pay for a good meal. But another steak joint? What is this number 4 or 5 on property? It's as bad as the number of Italian food places at the resort. Hopefully their menu is a more bit diverse than Shula's, Yachtsman, Le Cellier, etc (I haven't looked at it yet) Looking forward to...

    DHS ReDo (August 2014)

    You would think that Disney now own enough properties that they could populate GMR with their own characters only. Indy is already there. I recall a rumor about a Luke/Vader AA lightsabre duel scene going into the proposed but never built Paris GMR. Pixar Muppets (we could finally get a little...

    DHS The Park Formerly Known as Disney's Hollywood Studios? Yep ...

    Huh. Who knew No Doubt had such a handle on things. And how little things have changed. Now I want to hear this song. To the iTunes store!!!

    DHS The Park Formerly Known as Disney's Hollywood Studios? Yep ...

    Good point but just a layover is required for Paris as they have a RnRC. Share the costs on that.

    DHS The Park Formerly Known as Disney's Hollywood Studios? Yep ...

    Interesting a Marvel version of Rock N Rollercoaster was rumoured for Disney Studios Paris a few months back. I wonder if the rumour wires are getting crossed somewhere.

    DHS The Park Formerly Known as Disney's Hollywood Studios? Yep ...

    If I recall correctly (and at my age that aint always too accurate) it was going to be themed to the Hollywood Records Building and for some unknown reason I think No Doubt was rumoured to be used instead of Aerosmith. Or have I skipped my meds again and am completely off base.

    New after hours street party coming to this year's Epcot Food and Festival

    Well I'm not an AP so I can't comment. Didn't realize that was why they pulled F&W. I'm not saying they are perfect, I'm just saying that between the two I would prefer to spend my money on the west coast. I do appreciate the insight however. Because I'm a tourist and not an AP I guess I don't...
