    Hollywood Studios Icon

    For what it's worth, the new 2015 vacation planning DVD shows the Earful Tower quite a bit.

    Innoventions into Big Hero 6

    I'd love to see this! A robotics expo would be lots of a fun and a very exciting edition to Innoventions. A big part of the positive reaction to BH6 was how it portrayed science and technology, especially to young people. Capturing their imagination with some cutting edge-displays (and...

    Kingdom Hearts

    It would be great to see anything Kingdom Hearts at the parks! I've always felt like the series has been underutilized by Disney, unless you count Hot Topic merchandise. There was even a Kingdom Hearts animated series that was planned and pitched a few years ago, but it never came to fruition...

    Disney Stuff you like that's NOT represented in the parks?

    I'd like to see something Tron, as it had a huge impact on pop culture. Think of how gorgeous and immersive a "Grid" could be. Anything Kingdom Hearts, too. The video game is wildly popular, and you think the crossover promotion would be great for Disney. Imagine a build your own Gummi Ship store!

    New Maleficent Parks Costume

    Loving the new look. As much as I like "classic" Maleficent, the fake chin and opaque green makeup has always been a bit distracting to me. The fabric texture on the new dress is absolutely stunning and that headpiece is unbelievable!

    Best song for your trip?

    Our last trip: "Neon Lights" by Natasha Bedingfield "Life in Technicolor" by Coldplay (it brings back those beautiful EPCOT mornings!) "Good Life" by OneRepublic (no escaping this one!) "When Can I See You Again" by Owl City We used all four songs in our vacation video, and they never fail to...

    Another MK smoking area goes up in smoke

    I don't mind smokers in the park in designated areas, but the areas always seemed too close to the walking paths: I'm thinking in particular the one in Adventureland. My partner has severe triggered asthma and it's very frustrating when smoke lingers away from the path and she's scrambling for...

    Marvel teases a Journey into Imagination comic

    I'm really liking the sound of this, and that John Tyler Christopher cover is gorgeous! The Disney Kingdoms comic books are a nice idea; they can easily cater to both casual and more "hardcore" Disney fans. @Matt_Black I'm also hoping for some parks stuff to show up in KH3!

    Magic hours worth it or not?

    Morning EMH are great for getting the big rides in before the crowds show up. We've had a lot of luck at AK with the morning EMH. Evening EMH can be a bit busier, but some of my favorite moments have been late at night in the MK. There's a different feeling to the parks late at night.

    New Franchise for Disney???

    I asked a cast member during MNSSHP! After the stretch room, a few CMs were looking at my costume (a HM maid) and I asked if I could go into the foyer for a photo and exit through the "chicken exit". She said absolutely, so we went back through the stretch room, into the foyer and out through...

    Your Best Overheard Conversation

    I remember seeing a large, very exhausted looking family standing in HS by the entrance to Pixar place. Kids were crying and the father was so angry he was red in the face. He shouted, "There is no schedule! We're not following any schedule! This is a vacation and we are going to have fun!"...

    Water bottles allowed?

    I highly recommend Vapur water bottles; they are lightweight, flat when not in use and can fold! I brought one to my last trip and absolutely loved it. It's very durable, too. Most of them come with a carabiner so they clip to your belt or bag.

    Changing from POP! to Port Orleans Riverside?

    Hi all, Planning has started for our next trip, and we're playing with the idea of switching up hotels. For the past two trips we stayed at POP! Century and very much enjoyed our time there. However, with the long bus rides to MK (our favorite/most frequently visited park) and since the trip...

    Cosplaying at WDW

    I love that Disney accepts and embraced Disneybounding! It's a lot of fun and allows cosplayers and non-cosplayers alike to express their love of a specific character or theme. It's also a bit more comfortable than cosplaying all day at a theme park...

    New Franchise for Disney???

    When I was brought into the back hallway of the Mansion in October 2012, the keys were all artificial and glued to the board. Some seemed to have been missing "intentionally." Not sure if they've always been fake keys, though! :)
