    Most bizarre things WDW has ever done.

    Yep, I agree..with 1 small distinction....it's not just one ride, like with the examples you mentioned...it's literally an entire section of the park. I just think that's extremely bizarre, given the investment. If it were one ride, I wouldn't post it in this thread...in response to this...

    What makes you tear up/cry in the parks?

    Got engaged at the castle over dinner...had our honeymoon at WDW as well. My parents are DVC owners, and my wife and I had zero money to our name, as I was in law school and she just started teaching....so they gave us points to stay there. When I'm there now, especially as we get ready to...

    Most bizarre things WDW has ever done.

    I don't mean to be a Debbie Downer before this even opens...but I think it's intensely bizarre to devote an entire land...an entire section of a park...not just 1 attraction.....to intellectual property that's as culturally irrelevant as Avatar is. When I saw the ideas for it and read about the...

    Star Wars Launch Bay coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios later this year

    Can you tell me more about this? Is the Disney Visa perk necessary for pictures with Kylo Ren, Darth Vader, etc? What did you enjoy about this? I don't have a Disney Visa, but considering it given some of the perks. I feel like I already have more than enough credit cards...but.....the...

    Soarin' Expansion and new Soarin' Around the World film

    I'm hoping for the same. My family and I will be in the parks from the 4th through the 11th of June. EPCOT is our favorite park, and Soarin' is a big part of that.

    Will deactivating my old MagicBands make for an easier check-in?

    Probably a stupid question...how does one deactivate a band? Last one I used was 2 years ago....would it still be active? EDIT: forget it...I figured it out. Sorry!

    DHS PizzeRizzo announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios - Was: Rumor: Pizza Planet/Mama Melrose closing?

    I agree completely! We ate there for the first time on our last trip...my kids were both saying, "dad, make sure we eat here again on our next trip!" I've said this before, but I live in a city that is incredibly diverse and has amazing restaurant offerings...there isn't a whole lot I could...

    The music playing in Epcot

    Anyone else having trouble getting in to d-cot right now? Looks like they're down on their end. EDIT: Searched it and found out their server stopped working...the guy who runs it said he's getting new hardware to correct the issue. Should be back up and running tomorrow.

    The music playing in Epcot

    It's definitely on d-cot. I'm listening to Epcot Future World area music right now through d-cot.

    Alligator in rivers of America?

    The original post reminds me that this last summer, while riding the train at DisneyLand at night, we saw a HUGE rat scurrying along the perimeter. Clearly had enjoyed some after hours snacks in the park. "rat schmat...what do they know? they're tourists!" No seriously, we really did see...

    DHS PizzeRizzo announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios - Was: Rumor: Pizza Planet/Mama Melrose closing?

    You're not the only one. It's certainly not a "can't miss" experience for us...but it's come in handy a few times for us. I thought the meatball sub there was one of the better counter service meals I've had in WDW. I wouldn't miss it if it was gone, really...but I think it's fine for...

    Soarin' Expansion and new Soarin' Around the World film

    Saw on Touring Plans that the scheduled re-open date is June 2. I'll be at WDW from June 3-10. Fingers crossed that it's on schedule! I'd love to get to see the new film then!

    Trip with another family

    Thanks again for the help from all of you. So I need to connect with my friends...my family and I are all connected already from previous trips. Do I add them saying, "i will manage all the plans...?" or just add them as "i will invite this friend to make plans with me..." I want to make...

    Trip with another family

    Ok, we actually aren't staying under the same reservation....we'll be at OKW and they'll be at POFQ. Does that matter?? Thanks again for your help!

    Trip with another family

    I've used the magic band and fast pass plus on my last trip in June of 2013. It was easy for us, because though we travelled with others, my family of 4 made all our plans together and did everything together. This coming June, we are heading to WDW with another family joining us. They have...

    Favorite Sports Teams

    I'm late to the game, but here goes: MLB: Astros NBA: Rockets NFL: Texans NCAA: Baylor EPL: Everton I love the NHL, but it's really difficult for me to have a rooting interest when there's not a team playing in my city. I end up picking a team when the playoffs start and go from there. As...

    Post Something You Miss

    This. There are all sorts of components of EPCOT that I miss..that were either neglected or replaced. But the general theme and spirit of this park is entirely lost. The closing or neglect of those components are symptoms of a park that seems to have lost its way.

    Disney confirms 'Frozen' makeover coming to Epcot's Norway Pavilion

    To be fair, you can't tell the story of Norwegian culture to modern times without discussing offshore drilling. It changed everything for them. It's why they're as prosperous a nation today as they are. With only so much space and only so much time, an offshore rig is absolutely a necessary...
