    News Test Track to be reimagined

    For sure. Guardians has a large indoor queue that's mostly unused now. Could hold lots of people in nice air conditioned comfort.

    Unpopular opinions about the parks?

    Walking into Alien Encounter without any preconception on what was about to happen was one of the best experiences Disney has ever created.

    What "it's a small world" do you think is the best?

    I voted Disneyland, but the line can be really brutal, sitting out baking in the sun. They really need to add more trees and umbrellas to the queue, at the very least.

    New Construction in Galaxy’s Edge

    I wonder how much money these restaurants make for Disney. Unique restaurant experiences (Space 220, Blue Bayou, Oga's, etc) seem like something that not only add a lot to the guest experience, but also seem like they're priced in a way that would make them rather profitable. A Galaxy's Edge...

    Winnie the Pooh - Blood and Honey

    Definitely agree with all that. A friend and I went to this tonight as well. We were expecting it to be pretty bad, had a couple of drinks before and during the movie, and it was still bad. Had they gone with more of a campy "yes, this is ridiculous and we're really leaning into that" it could...

    Trip Report Mid October Trip, Tuesday - Sunday at Boardwalk

    Sure, yeah. Kind of a random assortment: I always forget how nice and quiet it is behind Canada at night. The fancy margarita with a bubble of foam over the top. The waiter is holding the machine that does the bubble/foaming and he was having a heck of a time with it. With the flashing ice...

    Trip Report Mid October Trip, Tuesday - Sunday at Boardwalk

    Figured I'd write up a report for our trip last month. Sorry if this got a little long. The really tldr; version is that we had a good time :) We were last there in 2017. Would have been back sooner if not for COVID. We'll likely be back in 2026. Stayed at the Boardwalk. Great location. Six...

    News Zootopia and Moana Blue Sky concepts for Disney's Animal Kingdom

    Tron didn't flop, nor did Tron Legacy. They both made money, just not Marvel or Star Wars money Tron: $17 million budget, $33 million (domestic) box office Tron Legacy: $170 million budget, $400 million box office

    News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

    I had kind of resigned myself to the fact that Tron wasn’t going to be open until after we were there this fall. I’m a huge Tron fan having watched the original probably close to a hundred times, so my plan this winter was to treat myself to a quick jaunt down to Florida to check out the ride...

    News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

    I've been wondering about that myself. I'm kind of hoping they're planning on opening it before Tron does, mainly for selfish reasons. It'll be a sort of consolation prize to be able to buy some Tron merch when I'm there later this fall, assuming the ride isn't open by then. Also assuming they...

    MagicBand+ announced

    I was just able to pretty easily order six Magicband+ for our party of 6 by selecting the option here. It required having a name engraved (stamped?) onto each one.

    ILL Time Selection

    Heading to WDW in a couple months and trying to plan out our days a little in advance. My mother is coming with, and she's in her early 70s and still in rather good health, but it helps if I can just optimize our day a little bit. We'll be staying on site. When Individual Lightning Lanes become...

    Savi's at WDW has evening reservations again

    I've been keeping on a eye on Savi's reservation times as I get closer to my 60 day window. I had noticed that there were no evening reservations for quite some time, but today that changed, with times being added to lots of days. Earlier this week, there were no evening times for any of the...

    You're all saying "October 1st" wrong ... I'll be there in mid/late October :)
