    News Disney’s DuckTales World Showcase Adventure Announced for Play Disney Parks Mobile App at Epcot

    I’m not saying it’s impossible that some higher-ups wanted similar types to what Gravity Falls had (all sorts of precedents are pushed in the writing room from the people writing their checks), but IMHO that’s not inherently a bad thing. And again, I’ll take more Mabels and Webbys over the...

    Epcot's 40th Anniversary

    Thinking about the Figment hoodie but it's going to come down to how much it is and what's leftover after the scalpers attack. Really wish they made more hot-weather wearable items. I love Spirit Jerseys but I have so many now that I can't really justify getting any more when I can't wear them...

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    I'm never going to stop calling it Future World, but I appreciate the EPCOT signage all the same...

    News Disney’s DuckTales World Showcase Adventure Announced for Play Disney Parks Mobile App at Epcot

    Ah yes, and the supporting young female characters haven't been a single archetype since, well, forever? We should be so lucky to see more shows embrace confident quirky girls in media. Bring on the Mabels and Webbys, I say.

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    My hopes for this film: 1) Reunite the Dreamfinder and Figment - they're a package deal in terms of storytelling, and keep their personalities the same. Don't re-design Figment, he's perfect as he is! 2) Use fantastic practical effects - I'd like to see Figment mostly as an animatronic puppet...

    Dinosaur has seen better days

    The only thing that really takes me out for the Dinosaur pre-show is how Claire is styled - IMHO it's the biggest offender for dating the video, plus a few shot set-ups, but oddly enough I kind of like that? Am I alone in this? IMHO, MuppetVision cannot be touched. The pre-show is honestly one...

    Epcot 40 Fan Meet-Up

    If someone can't make it to the Imagination Gardens at 10 am but wants to say hello, will there be any active status updates about where the group plans to be for, say, lunchtime and Harm?

    News Disney’s DuckTales World Showcase Adventure Announced for Play Disney Parks Mobile App at Epcot

    I really enjoyed the reboot! I'm nostalgic for the original of my childhood, but there were a lot of things that the reboot did that I felt were vast improvements while embracing a lot of what people loved about the original and Disney Afternoon cartoons. Webby being a proactive player, the boys...

    News Zootopia and Moana Blue Sky concepts for Disney's Animal Kingdom

    Serenity was the purpose. Joe Rohde said as much in The Imagineering Story. Not every attraction has to subject riders to extreme peril. It's fine if that's not what you want to experience in an attraction, but these parks are meant to be for everyone, which means it's necessary to have a...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    That was the original plan, but with PLAY! on the backburner, perhaps plans have morphed.

    Dinosaur has seen better days

    They had guest surveys done about attractions a few months ago...and those surveys always word things in a tricky way. But I'm sure parents have complained about the ride being scary, or not rating it high because of its maintenance struggles... But they know the public loves dinosaurs, because...

    Dinosaur has seen better days

    I'm so frustrated that Disney just wants to throw in the towel on Dinosaur. Dinosaurs are classic and a tentpole of Animal Kingdom. Zootopia doesn't belong there. I adore Jennifer Lee, but this is so incredibly upsetting. I appreciate them calling it all, "serious talks," which means if...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    I was lucky enough to get a reservation for the Parks presentation at D23 - when the Imagination Pavilion showed up on the screens, I can't tell you how big of a knot was in my stomach. I was ecstatic and then - ugh. As someone said earlier - whiplash! I do have a bit of a theory, though. I've...

    I wonder if a stray spark from Harm might have blown the wrong way :/

    Austin-based Torchy's Tacos is coming!

    If you haven't experienced Torchy's Tacos before, you're in for a real treat! Several locations are going to be opening up in Florida, with the first being St. Petersburg this winter, with Altamonte Springs and Orlando (opening Summer 2023) to follow...

    What will Disney announce for Disney World at the 2022 D23 expo?

    I don't want to hear them announce any new overlays/updates of successful existing attractions (unless there's some specific great need.) The parks desperately need more capacity. They've closed and replaced too many times when they need to be adding - and they have an unfortunate habit of...

    What will Disney announce for Disney World at the 2022 D23 expo?

    I would love to see a crazy Dr. Strange dark ride. There's a bunch of classic dark ride and magic tricks mixed with modern technology to create something really spectacular. It seems like a no-brainer to me...
