    The Town Center construction

    Disney Springs is a mall, not an outlet mall. An outlet mall sales items marked down from their original price. See http://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/outlet-mall

    Lights, Motors, Action Extreme Stunt Show to permanently close in April 2016

    What's surprising to me is that there is a expectation they would stay on. I imagined that they had special skills to be stunt drivers and were paid accordingly, and when the show ended they would go their way. What type of positions would they have transferred to that would use the same skills...

    Haunted Mansion gets Interactive ending

    It's just his opinion whether "germane" or not. But I think you have some serious moderator skills, and a lot of threads could use your input!!!!

    Earfell Tower to be removed

    The cost of moving forward is sometimes leaving things in the past. Our first trip to DW was 1987 when our first born was 9 months old. The Earffel Tower was always pointed out on the BLT. But my fondest memory was my kids and I watching my wife in the WWII scene scrubbing the PT boat. So I...

    Norway Pavilion Frozen construction - Frozen Ever After ride

    Do you think guests ever reacted that way to maelstrom?

    Norway Pavilion Frozen construction - Frozen Ever After ride

    Wow - hard to explain... I like that it goes quickly from scene to scene. Each scene has a focus, that in the case of Snow White it scares. I feel it, then move on. I don't get a chance to analyze the ride itself because I'm in the story - not an observer. In Maelstrom I was am observer, able to...

    AVATAR land construction progress

    It's surprising that there are still people on this board that aren't afraid to be shouted down! :)

    Norway Pavilion Frozen construction - Frozen Ever After ride

    P.S. We tired of the original Mexico ride rather quickly. We were really pleasantly surprised by how much more fun it became with the addition of the 3 Caballeros! So now we ride it a couple of times every year. I'm hoping the new "Maelstrom" is similarly fun.

    Current Studios Map

    To show how people are different, we went to American Idol (and Millionaire and Frozen Sing Along) all the time, whereas LMA was once and done. Fantasmic is a must see! :)

    DHS Makeover - What we know so far.....

    Are you becoming more cynical? Everything we can see and know makes it look like Avatar Land will be very entertaining. It's just a question of is it the greatest thing since sliced bread? Or is it just good? As far as payback, on this board it will be a subjective debate, which means nothing...

    Norway Pavilion Frozen construction - Frozen Ever After ride

    Don't get me wrong - we loved Maelstrom. But to me it was definitely a few steps below Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, Pinocchio, Snow White, Peter Pan, and Alice in Wonderland. I love these classics, and ride them regularly at DL, and I am still disappointed that they are not at WDW. But as far as...

    Norway Pavilion Frozen construction - Frozen Ever After ride

    I didn't hate it. But no way would I call it amazing. I think it ran its course, and I'm looking forward to riding its replacement.

    DHS Makeover - What we know so far.....

    Its hard to know if it's bloated, or just making sure everything is high quality. I don't know how to compare rumors of project costs at both universal studios and Disney. I can compare the as built results, and am looking forward to doing so! :)

    You obviously enjoy Disney - no mention of avatar land not being open spoiling your vacation! :)

    Norway Pavilion Frozen construction - Frozen Ever After ride

    We are in a similar position. We do go every year for an extended period (plus day trips to DL), but to miss it by "that much" is a little sad. Last year it was PoTC - it opened on the day we left. :( But we'll be on Pirates this year!!

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    You are right - Gotham could work. But do you think Disney would want such a "dark" place?
