    Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway confirmed

    Every night with the current version of the show? Last I checked, I could walk through the courtyard during SWAGFFA. I thought, if anything, it depends on the wind. I also thought the shells they use are too small to warrant a fallout closure. Much like at Comissary Way, there's falling debris...

    We sure do agree! I would love to see the parks return to form with live entertainment. The days when they had strolling bands just wandering through the park providing atmospheric entertainment were fantastic. I would love to see some of these small things return for the 50th and stay. (In...

    If the shareholders don't care, then why is Disney so careful where they spend money? Why don't all 4 parks have the budget to build and operate a parade? Why is Tomorrowland getting painted white instead of re-themed? My opinion does matter because it's my opinion based on my knowledge of how...

    You can argue that, but until you can prove it on Excel spreadsheet and show it to shareholders, It doesn't matter. Management loves cutting entertainment because it easy to cut without leaving a noticeable hole in the parks (See Stitch's Great Escape) and again, doesn't directly make a profit...

    Interesting how people are reacting to Magic Happens. I've found reactions to be quite polarizing. I'm personally not a fan of it, though I can understand why others like it. For me, the costumes have a little too much going on in them and I am not a fan of the soundtrack. If there's one thing...

    Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway confirmed

    So... I did the thing. Here's my opinion: The Queue: Entering the Chinese Theater was like a walk down memory lane. The original queue up until the preshow was beautifully intact and still includes the digital movie poster displays. The preshow is fantastic! As many people have mentioned, the...

    But on paper parades don't make money. Why would you spend money on something with no calculable return on investment? The shareholders will never see its value in an earnings report. Also, I don't ever want a parade at DAK again. MJJ was cute, but it made it so difficult to get around the...

    This is definitely my experience. 100% incorrect. We can post whatever we feel like - especially if we post semi-anonymously on a blog. ;) You'll hear my opinion in several days. ^ What he said.

    Mandalorian and Grogu meet and greet for Walt Disney World

    The archival photos were mainly taken because the show, with it's most current effects and lighting, wasn't up to date in the DPLE archives. A lot has changed in 28 years. I wouldn't read into that too much. Also, what minor issues are you talking about? The seats are literally the only things...

    Also, don't forget that some ride vehicles have changed. Space Mountain used to be able to hold more passengers before they switched to the individual seats and Splash Mountain takes longer to load with lap bars. Yes. I think there's probably one or two others who will experience it before me...

    At this point, we'd be lucky if they'd at least fix the LED light rings on the current Astro Orbiter spire...

    Actually, we have regarding a night parade. We know it's designed. We just don't know if they're going to build it or not.

    Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway - Disneyland

    Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I actually believe this is not true. It's my understanding that Disney uses California Building Codes worldwide, meaning that every new, from-scratch attraction built in Florida and California could be cloned EXACTLY on the other coast. It's crazy to think...

    Magic Kingdom 50th Anniversary Plans

    To be fair, they do a pretty damn good job with the resources they have. Again, the biggest problem is the lack of downtime. Things DO get fixed. It definitely comes down to how the budget is spent. The talent is there, the amount of people they choose to hire are relatively few. The other issue...

    I figured they would copy Disneyland and use their new color scheme as model. My concern is that they're forgetting why Cindy's castle has such a muted color scheme to begin with. The darker colors are impressive, but within two years they're going to be extremely faded from the Florida sun.

    Things are happening. We just don't know what yet. Maybe some of you have noticed that the dams are being put in the Swan Boat Canal in front of the castle? I'm pretty sure the castle overlay is about to start. The reason we have heard nothing is because the parks' management has heard nothing...

    Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway confirmed

    Regarding questions about cast members' first reactions, everyone I know on the test and adjust team (like, 2 people) is very excited for MMRR to open. They seem to believe it is a high quality ride that guests will greatly enjoy and have shared nothing negative to me about the ride experience...

    Magic Kingdom 50th Anniversary Plans

    You are very correct that the primary issue with parades in WDW is how they are treated, but climate has EVERYTHING to do with how they end up in such horrible condition. How often do you see Disneyland send out a parade in the rain? Almost never. Now how often do they do it in Florida? All the...

    Despite what a certain website may be saying, if the ramp itself were in rehab, they would not have built scaffolding on top of it. More than likely they are repairing something inside the ceiling under the Astro Orbiter.
