I've been enjoying Jack Plotnick for many years in many different formats (stage, screen, bars, etc.). But his recent videos about the history of Disneyland are particularly brilliant. Here Mr. Plotnick details the behind-the-scenes drama that took place as Walt Disney brought It's A Small World...

I know it seems like we don't need yet another thread talking about how Disneyland is still closed, but it seems like this is news that some folks may need and that shouldn't be buried in a months old thread with an unrelated title. So I apologize in advance if this is redundant, but it seems...

I didn't see this mentioned in the main "Everything Sucks And Disneyland Is Still Closed" thread, or whichever variant of that basic topic has not yet been banished to the Politics forum. But... The 2021 D23 Expo at the Anaheim Convention Center has been now postponed until September, 2022...

You won't have seen this on CNN or MSNBC today, but on Monday August 31st at 3:00pm, Speaker Nancy Pelosi was in San Francisco and got a fresh cut, a shampoo and rinse, and a blow out at a closed hair salon. All without wearing a mask. No one else in San Francisco is allowed to do this...

In sort of surprising news that isn't that surprising, the big Halloween extra-cost party at DCA has been cancelled for 2020. These parties generally start in late September and run through October 31st two or three nights per week. From the OC Register... "It’s only July but it’s already...

As if the SoCal tourism economy and hospitality industry needed another setback, they have just cancelled the Rose Parade this January. The game is still trying to be planned, but without an audience. https://abc7.com/rose-parade-2021-canceled-bowl-tournament-of-roses/6318666/

Within just a couple days of Hamilton being available on Disney+, it faced increasing criticism for glorifying racism and glossing over the white supremacy that the entire play is rooted in. Alexander Hamilton owned slaves and worked as an accountant for a trading company that shipped slaves to...

Even though the parks are indefinitely delayed (again), Downtown Disney is reported to be going ahead with its reopening plan next Thursday, July 9th. The Grand Californian Hotel and Paradise Pier Hotel will remain closed, along with nearly every other hotel in the Anaheim Resort District except...

I just posed this question in the massive Covid thread, but then I thought it would be fun to do a poll instead! :D Assuming their "Proposed Reopening" (the language currently on Disneyland.com) is approved by Governor Newsom, Disneyland and DCA will obviously have drastically reduced operating...

Not a huge surprise, but another big hit to the culture and continuity of Southern California life, and another hit to the history of Disneyland. Disneyland has now officially cancelled all of its Grad Nites for 2020. The 16 different Grad Nite dates were set to begin in mid May and run through...

"The Disneyland website that once proclaimed Avengers Campus would be “opening July 18” now says the new Marvel themed land is “coming soon.” https://www.ocregister.com/2020/04/10/disney-delays-opening-of-new-marvel-avengers-campus-amid-coronavirus-shutdown/

Because I spent the morning with contractors in my house ripping apart my guest bathroom, I went for a walk late this afternoon for some peace and quiet. Something told me to go check out Disneyland, and I'm glad I did. I knew the place was shut down, and I knew the neighboring businesses were...

Breaking news! Just announced on the radio that Disneyland will be closing effective Saturday, March 14th and remain closed through at least March 31st.

I can see the writing on the wall where this current Coronavirus panic is going. And a reminder that we have an active and interesting thread on the Coronavirus in general here...

So this happened today out at Disney World. A Jungle Cruise boat took on water and sank midway through the cruise, stranding a bunch of tourists on the sinking craft. Please write your own jokes.

I woke up way too early today for some reason, and the news is blaring that Disney will be closing Shanghai Disneyland indefinitely effective end of business today, due to the spreading Coronavirus across China. This is the start of their extremely busy Lunar New Year vacation period, which...

I got home from Christmas vacation a few hours ago, I'm still on Hawaii time, and while flying across the Pacific this thread idea came to me. Surprisingly, Hawaiian Airlines has no WiFi service on its planes, even the flagship routes to the West Coast on their big new A330's, so I had to jot...

In the fun Top 3 thread that @1LE McQueen started, I listed the Viva Navidad! show at DCA as one of my favorites. I don't think you could get a bigger dose of Christmas cheer with a SoCal flair if you tried, and it's a sparkling little jewel in Disneyland's crown of many holiday happenings. But...

Tonight is the Candlelight Processional at Disneyland, a tradition that Walt Disney started in 1958 to thank the local business community for their support of Disneyland throughout the year. Each year hundreds of local choirs process across the entire park before filing in front of the Main...
