    News EPCOT Parking Plaza refurbishment?

    Exactly this. IP in Epcot isn't exactly new. When I was growing up in the 90s, there were already characters in Epcot...they were just dressed in culturally representative clothing (or "futuristic" clothing in the case of Future World). I had zero problem with it. What I do have a problem with...

    New Enhancements, Dining Options Coming to Disney’s BoardWalk

    I went to the location in Indy years ago - somewhat ironically when I was in town to see Off Kilter perform at the Indy Irish Fest. Whimsy is most certainly the signature look of the bakery, from the gorgeous decor to the baked goods covered in edible glitter. I feel like it will be a great fit...

    New Enhancements, Dining Options Coming to Disney’s BoardWalk

    I saw my BIL/SIL over the weekend for Christmas. We were chatting about the Universal/Disney trip they took in 2019. I wouldn't consider them diehard theme park people by any means. But even they said there's a stark difference between appearances at Universal and Disney. They felt like...

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

    Better yet, change the Aladdin area to Moana in Adventureland. Reskin that spinner to the one in the Blue Sky and voila! It fits the Adventureland theming better than Aladdin anyway, and you get an updated attraction based on a more up-to-date IP. And it frees up Dinoland for a different IP (NOT...

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

    I just visited Oahu/Aulani for the first time last week. While on a tour we drove past the Cultural Center but didn't stop. This makes me wish we had. And I agree they could easily do a Polynesian cultural stage show here...or even smaller scale entertainment throughout the day. Especially since...

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

    I just personally don't feel like it's a great fit. And if it gets green lit, makes the Moana Epcot addition seem a bit pointless. Why make another water/Moana based area when they're currently already building something with that in mind? Instead, give us something new and different to replace...

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

    I'm not saying that's the most popular IP choice...just one that I feel might fit better thematically. And it would allow the area to transform into another continent based land alongside Africa and Asia.

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

    I've been trying to think all day what IP would be a better fit than Zootopia/Moana. One I keep coming back to is Rescuers Down Under. Dinoland could be replaced with Australia, which is one area that desperately needs to be better represented in WDW. Dinosaur could easily be replaced with an...

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

    That's one of my biggest annoyances with current Disney. They have TONS of classic, beloved IPs to work with. And yet they seem to only focus on what's new and popular at the moment. Some of those newer IPs may end up still being popular in the long run, some will be outdated in no time. So why...

    News Splash Mountain retheme to Princess and the Frog - Tiana's Bayou Adventure

    I feel like replacing SM with Coco or Encanto would have been a better IP choice for that area. Shoving PatF in a western themed area is just so cringe worthy for me. And then to not have any kind of storyline that makes any kind of sense on top of it. Yeesh. My expectations for this attraction...

    News EPCOT's Harmonious to be replaced with new nighttime spectacular Luminous

    I've seen videos of drone shows from Dollywood and Holiday World, and they seem so cool and impressive! I'm truly shocked these smaller parks beat Disney to the punch on using this technology. Honestly, a drone show would be great at Animal Kingdom since they can't do a big firework production...

    Merchant of Venus construction

    I do appreciate the use of the "New Tomorrowland" posters. The Tomorrowland Tower Hover-Hotel has long been a personal favorite of mine, and I've hated seeing it so faded.

    I heard they were going to be replaced by floating beignets!

    News Reflections of Earth confirmed to be replaced by Harmonious

    Boy, do I feel this in every part of my soul. I'm also mid-30s and my family also went to WDW every year at least once a year. So I too grew up with those classic 90s Disney movies with the iconic songs, but also with Disney parks that FELT Disney without cramming Disney products down your...

    News Reflections of Earth confirmed to be replaced by Harmonious

    You know, I keep thinking what would have happened if Disney had partnered with Cirque du Soleil for this show...or at least some of the people that have helped produce Cirque shows. I'm not talking acrobatics or live performers, of course. This would obviously be a much different show from what...

    News Reflections of Earth confirmed to be replaced by Harmonious

    I feel like my husband and I were the only ones who really enjoyed the PatF cover. It was probably our favorite part of the show, especially my husband's as he kept talking about it afterward. And I don't even like PatF. I did feel it stretched on WAY too long and really didn't fit in Epcot at...

    News Reflections of Earth confirmed to be replaced by Harmonious

    I actually agree with you. I like the twinkling aspects. But overall it's oversaturated and busy. I'm hoping it's better in person. I will say I'm glad they didn't go with projections. I'm likely in the minority but I feel like Disney does not do projections well at all. I thought I just hated...

    News New lobby layouts coming to Disney's Old Key West and Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort

    I wish they would redo the layout of Saratoga's quick service and especially their shop. Maybe the layout is deceiving, but it felt way smaller than most of the other deluxe resorts. Even moderates and values have larger shops than Saratoga. Honestly it makes sense to have less check-in desks...
