    Toto, I have a feeling we aren’t in Hollywood Studios anymore..

    I was at The Disney MGM Studios the summer it opened in 1989, and that "original vision" was interesting, the first time, but kinda boring too. All they had was the Indy Stunt Show, The Great Movie Ride, the Animation tour, which was the first time I ever heard that Disney was doing a animated...

    How would YOU have made a Star Wars land?

    I think if the actual ride was ready to go there would be a lot less complaining... but it would still be missing some important stuff. It's like they opened Caribbean Plaza in Adventureland, with the gift shop, Tortuga Tavern, Jack Sparrow stage show, Pirate costume shop for kids, Treasure...

    Guest Surveys as way to gauge interest in new rides/shows: how does this work?

    My personal feeling is, that in the early years... before Little Mermaid and Roger Rabbit... Disney World was a place focused on Disney Fans, basically an East Coast Disneyland. Between Walt's death in the late 60's and the Little Mermaid in the late 80's the Walt Disney company kind of just...

    Where is the imagination pavilion in the new EPCOT?

    I can't imagine they will do anything with Imagination until Spaceship Earth and Central spine are complete, it would be too many Future World attractions down at once The new young dude at Imagineering overseeing EPCOT, Zack Riddley, mentioned "the little purple dragon" and "signing fruit" in...

    Predictions! Secret WDC Project — August 22 @ D23

    "1 MONORAIL CONNECTING ALL 4 PARKS!" because they've upgraded every other road way and piece of infrastructure on property, and even built the Skyway which would be a lot more practical if it connected to an expanded Monorail at the Studios... and are building a bridge to connect the Grand...

    Mission: SPACE redo

    Oh Ok, I see the problem you're having... You're not supposed to express "your own ideas of what you'd like to see" on WDW Magic, you're supposed to check in everyday, waiting for someone in the Disney Corporation to "leak info" to one of the "insiders" here, so they can then tell you about...

    Anyone else not like Cars Land?

    I don't have any interest is the Cars films or characters, same with Avatar, the trend of building giant lands, themed to 1 movie, with 1 or 2 rides, is not something I'm a fan of. I'd much rather be at the Magic Kingdom with a wider variety of things to experience

    Just got back from my 11 day stay. We had a blast but feel extorted by Mickey Mouse.

    It's really beginning to seem like a rip off, even the most basic things like drinks... It costs $4 to buy a 20 ounce Coke at Disney now, most of which is ice, but you can find sales at grocery stores or an everyday price at whole sale clubs that'll sell 2 liter bottles of Coke for $1. So that's...

    News Disney's DescenDANCE Party begins later this month at Disney Springs

    Our kids would love this, but our trips have never lined up with the releases of the Descendants movies... did notice at the 10pm kick off of Villains After Hours last night, the DJ play the "Wicked World" song from the Descendants to start the show

    Grand Floridian to Magic Kingdom Walkway

    Is that the dock for the little "open air boats"? Took one of those small boats from Wilderness Lodge to MK last summer, the security area was tiny, but very fast

    Per Jim Hill, the Star Wars restaurant is coming.

    Ok, so is there any type of "themed restaurant entrance" in that area? So that they could build the restaurant out of sight of the guests and just open it when it's finished? Something like the archway in the Germany pavilion at Epcot, that would have been the entrance for the Rhine River ride...

    News Astro Orbiter Problems?

    Astro Orbiter is a "must do" at night with all the lights on, dusk/sunset isn't bad either

    Per Jim Hill, the Star Wars restaurant is coming.

    At the risk of bringing this back "on topic", is this building (circled in red) "not" the table service restaurant? but some part of the queue for the 2nd ride? If so, there is a lot of extra room at the Hollywood Studios to expand Star Wars Land where the train tracks are in Disneyland, maybe...

    How much does the music at Disney add to the experience for you?

    The unique music is half the reason to go, Haunted Mansion, Pirates, Tiki Birds, Country Bears... really miss all the old Epcot music, One Little Spark, Fun to be Free, all the Horizon's music... I'm really looking forward to "Epcot Forever". Last summer we stayed at Wilderness Lodge, and at the...

    Rumor Country Bear Jamboree to be Replaced by Toy Story Show?

    If a rumor for something "they may be thinking about" pops up, and you don't like it? ...you say something about it, you let them know you don't like it, you don't wait for their D23 press conference to "confirm the thing you don't like" They tried to turn Disneyland's Main Street Movie Theater...

    Rumor Country Bear Jamboree to be Replaced by Toy Story Show?

    What they really need is some A1000 bears, give them the same types of fluid movements that the old hand drawn animation had, that would really make the Country Bears impressive
