    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Yeah it's pretty crazy that they have so many things under construction at universal and a new water park as well. Great to see so many things coming to orlando!

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I am not sure where to post this, but I noticed this past week that the Toy Story Midway Mania Queue area is now partially walled off. The wall cuts the room in half right before the TinkerToy canister. The floor area behind the wall has been removed and the curtain has been pulled over where...

    First Night Dining: On Or Off Property?

    We always like to hit a few places off property. A couple that we like in FL that we don't have at home are Millers Ale house (big menu good prices) and giordanos deep dish pizza (Very good deep dish pizza). Both are on 192. https://giordanos.com/our-locations/chicago/...

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    It would be great to hear 2017, but I have to wonder why didn't they give an estimated date for the project if it would be that soon. What if we compare it to the new fantasyland announcement? When they showed the concept art for new fantasyland, did they also announce the year it would be ready?

    How can you afford it?!!!

    The ones I have gotten have all be $2000 in 3 months. Make sure not to do the one that gives you 25,000 points. Hold out and the 50,000 point offer will show up. I can email you next time I see it if you want.

    How can you afford it?!!!

    1- We get our flights through southwest. (If you get the credit card it's a real deal. $100 annual fee, but you get 50,000 points if you spend $2k in 3 months.) For us a round trip flight is approximately 14,000 points. We book our flights and then watch the prices. If they drop we rebook...

    Space Mountain closing for short refurbishment in January 2016

    Just enough time for them to: #1 - Remove the annoying safety spiel that ruins the classic sound track when you enter the ride queue. (for some reason this really annoyed me, there is not even a section in the ride where you can hear that classic music without the narrative) #2 - Boost up the...

    Possible Frontierland expansion

    To this day I have yet to ride a raft ride at any park that is better than the Popeye barges one over at universal. The ride is well themed and it's one heck of a long ride too :) It would be great if they could make something on par with popeye in the magic kingdom.

    No Extra Magic Hours Starting 1/1/16? Update: EMH to Continue

    We are in the boat on this one as well. We stay just off property and get a rental vehicle and we are able to get from the house and into the parks and on rides faster than people that are on property. It's so much easier to drive vs take the buses from the resorts.

    Beginnings of Tomorrowland Revamp?

    I agree this looks very cool. Ironically, while we probably won't see this sort of dual water fall on either side of the entrance to tomorrow land, it does look like they might be doing something similar with the new King Kong ride over at Universal :) The entrance is flanked with two heads...

    Space Mountain Refurb?

    I just hope when the time comes to replace the trace, they don't replace it with a shortened version. I love the unique layout of the ride. The way it's intertwined and all over the place is so neat.

    DHS DHS Soundstage 1 Renovation - Toy Storia Mania expansion

    I think it really comes down to the mix of visitors to WDW that they are currently pulling in. To those people that get to go once or twice in a lifetime, I think the place is still magical and fresh. They don't notice the things that have been taken away because they probably never had the...

    Luigi's Flying Tires being converted at DCA, what does this mean for DHS?

    I saw on another site today that Luigi's Flying tires is being shut down and converted into a new ride at DCA. The site said the conversion would be into a ride with a bunch of autonomous spinning cars that would drive around with near misses occurring using similar technology to the ride at...

    Annoying change at Space Mountain

    It was like that when I was there last and I was really annoyed by it as well. (glad there are some mp3s of the music out there to get w/o that annoying dialog). It is quite ironic that they have the volume up for the saftey warning, but not for the music and sounds during the ride. Still...

    DHS The Park Formerly Known as Disney's Hollywood Studios? Yep ...

    I very much agree. Popeye is the best Rapids ride I have ridden ever. It's so long and when you think it' s over it keeps on going. Great ride great show and just lots of fun. I hope it stays.

    FP+ only Toy Story Midway Mania

    Thanks for posting this, it makes much more sense. (though it seems like something they could have waited to do after they add more track as not to upset customers.)

    FP+ only Toy Story Midway Mania

    I also don't get why they did this now right after they recently closed down a bunch of attractions in that park. We were there last week and had park hoppers. We fast passed stuff at Epcot and then just waiting in line for TS since there were no more FP's left for the day. I would have been...

    Studio Backlot Tour Closing on September 27, 2014

    This sounds like the cadence that Universal is already on, it would be good to see Disney on that same schedule if it happens.

    Frozen ride replacing Maelstrom?

    I always found it funny that a bunch of things for sale in the Norway pavilion were actually made in china. I never did look to see if the things in the china pavilion were made in china or not... :)

    New Return Procedure at Soarin'

    Well said. What if you are park hopping? You have to make sure that this is the first attraction to go to then? And whats to stop people with fast passes for soarin already on their magic band from grabbing a paper fast pass too? The line of people helps to control the demand while allowing...
