    DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    What does that have to do with awful maintenance that was going on for years? It's okay to have people still go past the "politically problematic subject" with the story still easily heard and understandable but only if the animatronics are broken? How does the awful state of Tiana's fit into...

    News Disney World Faces Rare Hard Freeze - January 31 2026

    Unusual intense weather when they're closing Dinoland. Nice to see Mother Nature doesn't believe the gobbledygook about Humanland fitting either. Now I've got three days to turn my Summery Dinoland outfit into a Wintery one. Doable, but I will need more fabric paint.

    DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    This is good to hear, I was worried that the last day might not be as big as people might've chosen to say good bye while the land wasn't an embarassing, depressing wall corridor. I'm working on my outfit. I was surprised at how underdressed I was at Rama compared to other people, not making...

    Tiana's Bayou Adventure Effects Status Watch

    Animatronic Maintenance - $1,000 Screen Maintenance - $300 No Maintenance - $0 Note: Numbers are hypothetical except for that last one.

    2025 was an awful year

    We personally enjoyed them when we got them, and they just dropped them off at the front desk to be picked up whenever we happened to go past there so very convenient. The price was the downside (especially since I paid a significant upcharge for a chocolate monorail decoration that was just...

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Poor cast members wish they could let people know there are more seats just over there, but alas, they are merely toys and have no concept of Batuu.

    2025 was an awful year

    I called up Disney to order a customized cake to be delivered to my hotel (literally just going down to ride Dinosaur and sulk, wanted a Dinosaur cake), which I was able to do two years ago with no issues, only to be informed that service isn't offered anymore. They want you to come get the cake...

    2025 was an awful year

    Yeah, especially since Animal Kingdom should have more sit downs and anything you wanted to put in there can be justified with "...tourism...". The carnival plays into the story, too, but I know you know that already. Animal Kingdom used to have interesting things to say about our...

    MK New Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin Updates Coming to Walt Disney World

    The ride has already established the bright green and purple look; I would hope they would feel they don't have a choice but to continue with that. I would say Buzz has established that color scheme himself, but Lightyear showed us he doesn't have as much pull with the creatives as you would...

    Dinosaur has seen better days

    We're supposed to accept a worse experience for the sake of Disney saving money a lot. If you didn't know any better you would swear we were neighbors trying to come to a compromise about hedges on the property line rather than customers to a company.

    Do we know what logic determines which rides get temporary delay warnings?

    So you're saying there probably is one and I've been on this ride like 80+ times and I haven't gotten to hear it!? Why does nothing cool ever happen to me!? Edit: Thanks for the information, by the way

    Raglan Road/Disney Springs On St. Patrick's Day

    For the record, if you can't get into the proper restaurant, the attached quick service's food is delicious. The chicken and mushroom pie thing is one of my favorite quick service meals on property.

    Dinosaur has seen better days

    The more I see people on here talk the more I'm convinced that where you're from and your personal experience shapes your view on Dinoland. Like, a lot. Significantly more than normal. I would go so far as to say that's why some people dig their heels in so deeply to the idea that everyone must...

    DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    I had a revelation the other day that when Chester and Hester's opened with all the 2D cutouts on Primeval Whirl Disney didn't have rides full of screens. You had 3D movies and simulators, but if your cart was actually going forward you were getting actual sets. Might get a shadow projection...
