    News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

    Every time I see those dreaded rocks, I think of 1960's Sci-fi, or in some cases I mentally update to this....

    Broken Hopper Effect at "It's Tough to Be a Bug"

    Perhaps to fill in the blanks, they could borrow a spare strobe from Everest?

    News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

    The DHS option would have been cool as the Flynn Arcade building would have made sense as an entrance to the attraction. Guests would enter through the arcade building by walking through Flynn's with the 80's music going and the arcade games in their demo modes, all non-playable props out of...

    DHS Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway confirmed

    Yes, you are correct that the yellow is walking area, but that was NOT the only attraction area accessible by guests. The original Backlot Tour was huge, covering far more area than you demonstrate with the yellow. As many newer WDW DHS guests are not aware, even the Backlot Tour that closed in...

    Tokyo cars spotted near the speedway

    You're right on about this. Dare I say, (as many in these forums consider this blasphemy), Musk is a LOT like Walt Disney. Both have/had visions of great ideas, some their own, some are improvements on others ideas. If we reflect back on Walt's vision for EPCOT, which was never realized as our...

    Yeti Update

    Maybe for the AK 25th anniversary in 2023, they'll either fix him or install a new lighting package.

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner

    The curious thing, and I apologize if I overlooked this part of the prior discussion, is the unload to pause time requirement. The ride time determines how long they must anticipate a pause as once they stop loading, they must allow time for the already loaded gondolas to unload at the...

    Full online check-in comes to Walt Disney World Resort hotels

    Yeah, we saw some signage regarding MagicBand usage at the entrance to our resort earlier this week. If the parking access is now going to work like pool access, then both should be less cluttered with cars/swimmers that don't belong there, with an added measure of security.

    What do you think of the EPCOT Central Spine redesign?

    I agree that it looks odd. It's like a pool on an observation deck. Perhaps that's the new "Floating Desert Party" where a $195 upcharge gets you a cool dip, a cupcake, and a grand view of the fireworks?!?

    What do you think of the EPCOT Central Spine redesign?

    In all the various forms we've witnessed for the potential future of EPCOT, the one thing that seems to be clear, is that they are addressing the countless issues raised by guests that have been stated here as well. Those issues being related to the heat, patch work "updates", and empty shells...

    Mission:Space update (confirmed)

    I'm sure it's because the videos & presentations are created well in advance. My company does a lot of expos far larger than D23, and to get an executive or busy team who edit & produce the deliverables to do so at the last minute is next to impossible. Back up plans for expos are typically...

    Replacement for Tomorrowland Speedway?

    I see lot's of arm chair imagineering going on as we all would LOVE to hear about plans, but alas, they have nothing set in stone (or in the case of Florida and TDO's wishy-washy approach....nothing is set in sand). So while I typically don't post like this, the "what if" on this land is fun to...

    DHS Muppets Mini-Land / Muppets Courtyard Additions & Refurbishments

    Funny, (or not so), I was looking at all those photos and thinking how it feels like the new park name will be DCA-East.

    Possible Frontierland expansion

    You're so silly....$8.95 for a cupcake! Everyone knows those "special" cupcakes are only available at the $79.95/person dessert parties where you're provided a plastic lawn chair and a view of fireworks that everyone else sees for free (not including park entry). :D

    Cruz Ramirez meet and greet coming this summer

    Thanks for sharing! The talking and eye movements help, and I saw Mater's motor oscillating, but they are still absolutely motionless. My thought for motion is simple and no danger to stand next to during photos. It just needs a little something to give them "life". Still disappointing that this...

    Cruz Ramirez meet and greet coming this summer

    I've never understood, with the technology Disney uses/used for the talking Mickey, Muppet Mobile Lab, and Luck, why aren't these cars animated? 3 simply cylinders can tilt the body around the wheels a bit, flexible surfaces would allow the mouth to move and a DLP would take care of the eyes...

    EPCOT Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    Sure, but a little further back. Perhaps, back in the dumpsters. It makes no sense to move such an aged attraction between parks, let alone any attraction. While it's classic, and I do enjoy the classics, if it were to simply go away in favor of a new generation attraction, I don't think it...

    New projection show at DHS "Disney Movie Magic"

    I went through all 4 pages and didn't see this, so excuse me if I overlooked your post..... That said, does this not seem like a potential add for the rebranding of the park to take a feel of the guests impressions of the concept? Current name "Disney's Hollywood Studios", new name "Disney's...

    DHS DHS Aerial View

    There is indeed a certain level of "mental laziness" induced by the current technology. I find myself pushing my kid to really use his noggin and not to default to lazy if he wants to be cutting edge with ideas and creativity. You and I know that not everything the Imagineers present can be...
