    unDISCOVERed Future World Tour - Recent tours

    I am going on the tour for the first time in over 10 years I am am really curious from anyone who has gone on the tour in the last 6 months or so could tell us where they went. Obviously, there are places I'd love to visit which probably aren't possible anymore (ImageWorks, UoE, etc.) but I...

    Is the clock ticking on the Sorcerer Mickey Hat icon at the Studios? YES!

    Currently standing in front of it. It's a glorious site in person.

    Is the clock ticking on the Sorcerer Mickey Hat icon at the Studios? YES!

    It still baffles me that people think a new icon is being constructed.... They are returning to the original Hollywood Blvd view. End of story. At most it'll be a permanent platform for a stage area. Or a planter like it originally was.

    Is the clock ticking on the Sorcerer Mickey Hat icon at the Studios? YES!

    It looks like they've also removed the stars in the planters as well?

    Is the clock ticking on the Sorcerer Mickey Hat icon at the Studios? YES!

    I've said it once and I'll say it again, the exterior of the GMR better be getting some cosmetic updates to appear as it did from 89-01. I'm talking of course about the spires on the theater itself. That would be a huge disappointment. I know some of them are retractable. I noticed they were...

    Soarin' Expansion and new Soarin' Around the World film

    I don't want to open this can of worms, but if any attraction deserves a refurb its Journey, or Wonders of Life........ IMHO. Those pavilions NEED attention out of pure asthetic for starters.While a third theater is important, I wouldnt consider Soarin in dire need of a renovation at the moment...

    Seeing this makes my blood boil. However I'm happy because it's the last time I'll see this view again.

    PHOTOS - Disney reveals new lobby design and Trader Sam's lounge for the Polynesian

    Oh boy. The one thing I hoped wouldn't be gone once the refurb was over. That and the Samoa Mickey, Minnie, Morty, and Ferdie statues that were on top of the shelves in Trader Jacks (now Moana Mercantile).... Shame. Was one of my favorite resorts since I was young. This is kind of like the...

    PHOTOS - Disney reveals new lobby design and Trader Sam's lounge for the Polynesian

    Does it still have that "Polynesian smell" in the lobby? :) I'll be there on Sunday to see for myself

    Missing Mickey Christmas Wreath at Contemporary?

    I was at the Contemporary last Sunday and the "Frozen Theme"?? - there is barely a theme. So that's a dumb excuse on Disney's part. I'll be staying here for Christmas week and am reluctant to do so because this resort lacks so much cohesion with its Holiday decor - what little they have anyway...

    PHOTOS - Disney reveals new lobby design and Trader Sam's lounge for the Polynesian

    Looks very Adventureland-esque to me. Of course I'm being cynical. Not terrible though.

    PHOTOS - Disney reveals new lobby design and Trader Sam's lounge for the Polynesian

    Does anyone know what they new themed pool area will look like.... If it looks like Aulani, oh man. Originality down the drain.

    Snake-Like Creature (and Ellen) gone from Universe of Energy

    The Universe of Energy is currently one of my favorite attractions in Epcot and is pretty much the only renovated Epcot Attraction I can stand. I have witnessed this park decline in quality and meaning as many of us have an remember the days when Disney wouldn't stand for kind of treatment of...

    Missing Mickey Christmas Wreath at Contemporary?

    I was there yesterday evening and noticed that it was not there on the northern facade of the Contemporary Resort. It's less than 5 years old so I was hoping there was any information on this? Thanks!

    Is the clock ticking on the Sorcerer Mickey Hat icon at the Studios? YES!

    This was probably already asked, but will the spires be returning to the Chinese Theater? I know one of them was/is retractable for SITK, but from an Imagineer's perspective, that's not exactly a detail you can overlook once the BAH is gone.

    Snake-Like Creature (and Ellen) gone from Universe of Energy

    You would think that by 2014 they would've converted the film to digital format. It's not that difficult. I do it all the time.
