With the upcoming return of Ariel's Grotto and Storytime With Belle, has there been any news or rumor about when Tinkerbell might return to the MK on Main Street next to Mickey?

For all it is worth, I have a friend who was in the old production and is also in the new production. I'm being vague out of respect for their privacy, but they had years of experience in the original production and are currently back in rehearsals for this new one. I asked what they thought...

I know that both Alice and Mary Poppins are appearing for socially distant photo ops in the tea garden at the U.K. pavilion, and have randomly encountered each of them. Does anyone reliably know if they are appearing on any kind of a set schedule, or if it is completely random? I am asking...

It did. I wrote a book about it.

Speaking as the parent of an autistic person: Thank you everyone in this thread for not piling on the parents. When I opened the thread, I kind of expected it to have multiple critiques of the parents for not controlling him, and was very pleased it to find otherwise. When I first heard about...

He hated it. Like... after he got off, he was furious at us for making him go on it. He has avoided that area of the park ever since. He doesn't even like looking that direction.

Hey all! In honor of the fifth anniversary of the closing of Snow White's Scary Adventures, I have made my book free on Kindle for the next five days. That final night was truly amazing, and I hope you enjoy reading about it. https://www.amazon.com/3500-Autistic-Ten-Year-Romance-ebook/dp/B00BFTDHV4

Snow White went on SWSA with my son on two occasions - the first time on his 2,000th ride, and the second time on the final night of operation for the ride. Both were extremely memorable events, and I am grateful to the cast members who made it happen.

One of my minor joys used to be pulling my hat down over my eyes and taking a three minute micro-nap on Snow White's Scary Adventures. I figure over the years I got a combined several hours of sleep on that ride.

I went on the ride this evening, and I have to say I was disappointed that the ride isn't even officially open yet and one of the spinning barrels is not working properly. You can never get Snow White to appear, because no matter how much you spin one specific barrel the ceiling projection never...

Seriously? Way cool! I'll have to take my wife there this September for the tenth anniversary of when I proposed to her on that spot.

Yup, that would be my son Benjamin. (Shameless self-promotion: I wrote a book about the whole thing, there is a link in my signature below if you are interested). Over the past ten years I have met several other families who bring their autistic children to the park. Sometimes it is a good...

Bear in mind that all Time Lords are Gallifreyan, but not all Gallifreyans are Time Lords. When one becomes a Time Lord, the Gallifreyan High Council essentially imbibes them with the (for lack of a better term) "energy packets" required to power twelve regeneration cycles. The council had the...

He's been on Test Track I think two or three times. Definitely once since the recent redesign. He didn't hate it, but he has never asked to go there specifically. At Epcot he mostly wants to go ride the boats. He will either sit on the shuttle going back and forth between Canada and Morocco, or...

Not quite. Peter Capaldi will still be the 12th Doctor. John Hurt's regeneration very specifically did not take the name of the Doctor; while he is certainly the ninth incarnation the Time Lord who has mostly gone by that name, the Doctor is not his true name but rather a chosen one. And yes...
