    “EPCOT”’s New Name

    I was thinking the same thing when I thought it up, RobWDW1971. For what this park is being transformed to it fits a bit better than EPCOT (I love EPCOT's name everyone). And I thought is could fit a cruise ship as well.

    Disney's Discovery Park (Something old is new again. Hey, they're not using it for the Island anymore, right?)

    Haunted Mansion Refurb.

    So, the article says the refurb is expected to last to "late March or April"...ugh! Does anyone have any more precise information as to an exact finish date yet? I only ask because I wanted to go to Disneyland for the first time ever. But only if I can ride the original Haunted Mansion. I...

    Fully Immersive Lands...Are They Played Out Already?

    Really good points, @Mickeyboof. You're right. "Realistic" is the most apt. I was trying to get to that by saying "Fully Immersive". But "realistic" works!

    Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

    In another thread I started yesterday, I proffered the idea that perhaps these fully immersive lands are not the right approach. The Star Wars movies were hopping around from planet to planet. They could have used a multi-planet approach to the "land". Or perhaps gone with a...

    Fully Immersive Lands...Are They Played Out Already?

    So, Star Wars land aka Galaxy's Edge has been getting criticism for being somewhat "meh", lacking a music soundtrack, lacking a recognized SW environment, etc. Harry Potter's areas at Universal are terrific. But the movies profiled the areas pretty well, Hogwarts and Diagon Alley. Pandora is...

    Man Accused of Stealing Buzzy's Clothing from Disney World Arrested

    After he's been restrained, the end back and forth is pretty funny... Patrick Spikes: "Hey!" Officer: (opens back up the door) Patrick Spikes: "Can I call my Mom and tell her that..." Officer: "You're an adult, correct?" Patrick Spikes: "Yeah" Officer: "I'm not calling your Mom"

    Insider info/ AMA on WDW's 50th Ann.

    @Disnerd2003, just wanted to say thanks for your work on Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom. It's a terrific, terrific attraction. And as far as the changing soundtrack to Pandora...I had suspected it changed! Soooo cool to learn that it actually was designed to be this way. I couldn't find an...

    Insider info/ AMA on WDW's 50th Ann.

    Hi @Disnerd2003 . *I know I'm posting these again, but you said you're taking questions in a different way now. Just would like your thoughts! 1.) Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge: The Last Jedi movie proved to be pretty divisive among even decades-long SW fans. It personally put a bad taste in my mouth...

    Insider info/ AMA on WDW's 50th Ann.

    Hi @Disnerd2003 . May I ask you a few questions? (Sorry some of them are pretty specific!) 1.) Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge: The Last Jedi movie proved to be pretty divisive among even decades-long SW fans. It personally put a bad taste in my mouth for all things Star Wars…and I’m a lifelong fan. I...

    Fandom and/or Industry Term For "Realistic" Disney Attractions?

    I had forgotten about this post! @mergatroid, is "FGR's" a real thing? I"m thinking you're kidding...F'n Good Rides, maybe? haha But really, is FGR an accepted term for these types of non-IP rides? If not...man it would seem strange that after all these years there isn't an established term!

    Haunted Mansion Christmas Overlay Dates?

    Thanks for your reply Phrubrah. Do you know of any way to confirm the exact date? I'm not going to do to Disneyland if it's not reverted back.

    News Star Wars Galaxy's Edge opening day reports - Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I personally like the idea of a new planet/story in Batuu. But if Disney thinks a change is needed, I profer the below idea: 1. Make each SW land unique, if only in facade/theming and renaming. Attractions can remain mostly unaffected.(?) Use the more iconic SW planets or at least...

    Fandom and/or Industry Term For "Realistic" Disney Attractions?

    The rides that I connected with as a child and that keep me going back to Disney are the more "realistic" rides/attractions in the park. For example, the Haunted Mansion, Space Mountain, The Jungle Cruise, Pirates of the Caribbean, Big Thunder Mountain, Carousel of Progress, Swiss Family Tree...

    Is there any way I can confirm the specific date in 2020 that the attraction will be back up and running as the normal Haunted Mansion?

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner -

    So @Magic Feather, what actually was the reason (or reasons) for the investment in the Skyliner? I was thinking about this, and my guess is one of two. The first is for increased security. The second is possibly lessen liability or disorderly conduct due to the alcohol consumed at the Epcot &...
