    Do you think Shanghai will go for another expansion next or go for a second gate?

    It’s the most logical place for gate 13, with all the infrastructure already in place, and a very captive market who will flood to it and hopefully take some pressure off the first park. Curious what the theme/name might be. I’d imagine it would be quite a mix match. Avatar would seem almost...

    Zootopia Coming To Shanghai

    You know you’re on the international forums and for some of us it’s actually very easy to visit the Asian parks. So yeah, it kinda does matter.

    Miscellaneous Tokyo Thoughts

    I mean, yes, and it’s spectacular, but I thought the question was referring to sit down shows.

    Miscellaneous Tokyo Thoughts

    At Disneyland there were the two parades with dancers. Big Band Beat was an abbreviated version. That’s the only proper “show” at TDS currently.

    Miscellaneous Tokyo Thoughts

    Was at DisneySea today (Sep 1st). Seemed much quieter than it did end of June. New “fast passes” worked well, but seemed to go fairly quickly! We used for Nemo, Aquatopia, Raging Spirits x2 and also for Magic Lamp/20k Leagues (not needed). Longest wait was 50 mins for TSMM at start of day (we...

    Universal Studios Japan - Trip Report

    Universal Studios Japan I made it, finally, to all the Universal theme parks worldwide! USJ has long been on the bucket list for me and I was thrilled to have the opportunity to go. Had read online that the park opened early and it opened an hour before scheduled open time on both days. I did a...

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    The long scenes work very well though (moreso for Be our Guest and the finale than for Something There). Disagree on the finale seeming like an empty room. It’s a huge people eater (I believe each dispatch is 60 guests) It’s a great attraction. Videos don’t do justice to the scale of it.

    Universal Studios Beijing - Trip Report

    Please excuse me if this is in the wrong section, and indeed feel free to move if there is a more appropriate section. Was very lucky to have a day at the newest Universal park in Beijing on 13/7. It was a rather wet day, with the rain not easing up until late afternoon. That said, it didn’t...

    Tokyo Disneyland Resort Expansion

    I find that interesting, because the Peter Pan vehicles look much more like traditional ride vehicles than what you’d expect for a FOP a style ride. The building is also huge! I guess time will tell.

    Tokyo Disneyland Resort Expansion

    Brilliant thank you. Do we have any more info on the ride systems? Are either Frozen/Tangled using the Pirates tech from Shanghai? Is Peter Pan going to be something totally unique? I really can’t tell fro, the ride vehicle photos.

    Tokyo Disneyland Resort Expansion

    With 4 more rides (3 seemingly quite large!) there’s going to be enough to do in one day with no opportunity for re-rides. It will also help hopefully to balance some of the current longer queues like Soarin’ and Midway Mania. I think it’s a well needed addition to the park.

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    Having just been to Tokyo Disneyland, I had a thought that a ride based on Encanto should absolutely take the framework of "Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast". You could focus on three of four musical numbers with some show scenes in between.

    HKDL gets new castle, frozen land and marvel land.

    99% of visitors to the Tokyo parks seemed to be Japanese with a very small %age of other nationalities. Same for Hong Kong it seemed to be very much a locals park.

    Trip Report and Thoughts on Tokyo Disney

    Tokyo Disneyland My final Disney park! 12/12 completed. I spent two days here. First day, we rope-dropped Beauty and the Beast and waited around 45 minutes, our ride through had a technical stop for a couple of minutes just as the beast was transforming. Was a bit disappointing, but we got...

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    Yep, we will have the 2 week pass, so we will have days where we only do part days, or take in more shows etc. My parent's wont do the bigger rides (especially mum) so I think we will do ok without it.

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    Been very interesting to have a read through of this thread. I’ve not been to the Orlando parks in 8 years (we have a trip planned for end of Jan into Feb 2024) but I have been numerous times to the California parks and also Shanghai, Hong Kong and Tokyo. What I found in all 4 Asian parks was...

    Miscellaneous Tokyo Thoughts

    Visiting next week for my final Disney park (TDL) and another visit to TDS (first time in 9 years). Can't get over how cheap the tickets are with the declining rate of the Yen.
