    IllumiNations question

    Just read on Wikipedia that the Reflections of Earth control room is located on top of the Mexico pavilion. Is this really true? I know Wikipedia isn't the most reliable of sources, but if this is true then it's something I never knew before.

    Spaceship Earth Update

    With you ALL the way! And they should make it smoother too!

    WDW Picture of the Day

    That one makes me cringe! I was there in '96 for my 2nd visit, and even then (at 8 years old) in my innocent little head I asked myself... 'What the HELL have they done to the castle?' Not a great look, is it? Picture SSE dressed as a cake for Epcot's 25th!:eek:

    Spaceship Earth Update

    I'm thrilled that one of my favourite rides is getting (what sounds like) a great update. And as for people's disappointment that it will be closed for October 1st, there's one thing that die-hard Epcot fans (myself included) must face up to - Disney has claimed that there is no great...

    Famous faces at WDW

    :) Wow! That'd be sweet! Where'd you see him?

    Famous faces at WDW

    Has anyone seen any famous people on vacation at the resort? I've only seen a guy from a UK soap opera at Epcot, but no-one really high profile.

    Share a Dream or Disney Dreams?

    After reading the MSEP vs. SM thread, I figured I'd start the same discussion over the MK day parades. For me, it has to be Disney Dreams Come True Parade - much better music than Share a Dream, and the parades look better without the snowglobes, IMO. I still wish they'd replace the castle...

    MK perimeter fireworks

    Good point, cooleo! In this site's MVMCP video (in Wishes video section), at the end of the show just watch all the people in the Main Street hub turn around and look up to the skies directly behind them. Quite :lol: to watch.

    DL vs WDW

    I've only been to DL once, when I was about 10, so I really don't remember what it was like at all. But having seen lots of photos of it recently, I think (while it still looks a very nice park) that there seems to be so much stuffed into such a small space. I visited http://www.yesterland.com...

    Tower of Terror, discussion... CONTAINS ILLUSION SPOILERS!

    I have to agree with Mrdean3 - while I love ToT in WDW, it looks so much less impressive than the one in TDS. Fair enough, they have different storylines, but no real buildings (not even old, 1930s abandoned ones) have painted-on windows. I think what is one of WDW's tallest structures deserves...

    Disneyland Paris steals from WDW

    Downright senseless self-plagiarism, IMO. Why do all fireworks displays at DLPs Sleeping Beauty castle look so rubbish in comparison to DL and WDW? Watch the video that steals IllumiNations' music (:mad: ) - all the shells launched are the same, again and again and again. I think its pathetic...

    April 1st On The Travel Channel Day Of Disney

    Im in the UK and have the Travel Channel, but I cant find anything Disney in tomorrows schedule - maybe its a different channel altogether. :( Can anyone enlighten me? (I'd happily watch all of this tomorrow if I could).

    MK perimeter fireworks

    Just saw a video of the finale of Wishes using the 360 degree perimeter fireworks...absolutely MINDBLOWING! :dazzle: Have never seen these utilised before - can someone tell me when they were last used? I know they cause delays for transportation around MK, and that Disney used a 180 degree...

    Mickey waves goodbye?

    Just a random thought - I remember visiting Magic Kingdom at one point (I think it was October 2005) and at the end of the night (after Wishes), as we got through the tunnels and out of the park, Mickey appeared on the balcony of the train station, and was waving everyone goodbye. Just wondering...

    EFCOT Center

    I'm sure this has been brought up before, but I just watched the 'Special Edna' episode of 'The Simpsons' again - the family travels to 'EFCOT Center' ('When Everything Else Is Booked') in Florida. When the family fly over it, Homer shouts 'It's even boring to fly over!'. :fork: While I don't...

    Video of new Illuminations air-launch fireworks

    I've ALWAYS wanted to see IllumiNations start like that - it's always been a pretty conventional (and far less impressive) shell whilst I've seen it, and I REALLY hope it's still like this when I next go (Christmas hopefully!). Thanks for uploading the video!

    ALF's Back in Illuminations!

    Thanks, it took me a while (:hammer: ) but I get it now. Hope the ALF stays in regular use; I'd love to see it next time I go and it's SO much better than the effect that's been used for the last year or so.

    ALF's Back in Illuminations!

    Thanks for explaining a lot of stuff, but I'm still slightly confused - is the 'Big Bang' firework the same in all shows, just sometimes misaligned with the comet? It just seems like the explosion itself is smaller when I've seen it in person, as opposed to being HUGE in some videos I've seen...

    ALF's Back in Illuminations!

    Can someone enlighten me - which is the ALF, the comet from shore or the 'Big Bang' shell? Should probably know this (as my username would suggest) but I've always noticed that the 'Big Bang' is either VERY big, and well positioned so it looks like it came from the comet, or it's a lot smaller...

    Why the year of a millions dreams?

    It'd be a great shame if Disney ignored Epcot's 25th just because it might conflict with YOMD. Which matters more? :brick:
