    AOL Names Disney world #18 with their fourth of july fireworks

    You pretty much summed up why I think that WDW's fireworks (Magic Kingdom's fireworks in particular) are the best firework displays in the entire world. People sometimes like to say that all firework shows are alike... But fireworks in front of Cinderella Castle is something that is truly...

    VIDEO Disney's Celebrate America!-A Fourth of July Concert in the Sky, video and info

    Does Magic Kingdom or any of the other parks ever close due to capacity issues on July 3rd? The family and I are planning on visiting Magic Kingdom tomorrow specifically just to see these new holiday fireworks, but I'm not sure if we'll bother this year if the crowds are going to be insane.

    Walt Disney World vs. Dubailand (from MiceAge)

    It's an inevitability that the US Dollar will get stronger again. I'm sure these things go in cycles and the US Dollar has to get weaker from time-to-time so it can remain competitive in a world economy. I think it's obvious that WDW is so successful because it is Disney. That's one...

    A David is 'Going to Disney World!'

    David Cook appeared on "The Tonight Show" with Jay Leno yesterday and mentioned the Ad along with WDW yesterday. Out of all the things that must have happened to him over the past 2 days, that Ad was the one thing that stood out in his mind and he found special enough to mention it on the...

    A David is 'Going to Disney World!'

    Just saw the video and it was great! American Idol and WDW teaming up is turning out to be a great marketing machine. I mean... WDW was just advertised on a non-Disney show on a rival network on one of the biggest night's on TV! I hope there's a lot more TV promos for WDW to come.

    Does Epcot Need Saving?

    There still is a lot of learning to be had at Epcot as it exists today. Disney is trying to find a happy medium between education and entertainment with these new attractions instead of boring the general public to death with educational dark rides. I think the fact that Epcot is still the...

    Does Epcot Need Saving?

    There needs to be at least one fun and exciting ride (roller coaster or water ride perhaps) in World Showcase. Currently there's really nothing drawing people to that part of the park; especially if you're not into 360 films or dark rides.

    MK Themed parties...ripping off regular customers?

    These parties are actually a great bargain for a family on vacation. You basically get full access to a park with extra activities/events in a less crowded atmosphere for around half the price. The only people Disney may be "ripping off" are the people who are Annual Passholders; and I would...

    Night Kingdom... Here we go again

    The biggest problem I see with Night Kingdom is the "game" aspect of the experience. What will motivate guests to complete these tasks and finish this "game" unless there's a big pay-off at the end? I could see some guests being self-motivated and would probably consider the experience as a...

    Night Kingdom... Here we go again

    Interactive experiences can be great, but they have to be done in the right way. An interactive experience like Discovery Cove is a great idea. It focuses on an area in which many people want to participate in, but very few actually get to. The problem I see with Night Kingdom is that there...

    MSN Disney Article

    You're trying to compare Nazi Germany to Walt Disney World...:rolleyes: You're on a WDW fansite... Don't get so insulted when you hear people trying to defend the place if they feel someone is unfairly judging it. I think the person obviously had an agenda against the Disney Corp. before...

    When are they going to announce a true e-ticket?

    A lot of people also forget the little "additions" Disney has added throughout the years. The Cinderella Castle Lights has to be one of the best additions to any theme park in my opinion. I'd seriously take those lights over a roller coaster any day...

    "Rockit" High-tech Coaster to be built at Universal Florida

    The only thing Universal has on Disney is that Universal has announced its projects while Disney is keeping their plans under wraps. But what has Universal done in the past 3 years? They opened one dark-ride during that entire 3 year time-frame, Nice job Universal! While Disney has...

    "Rockit" High-tech Coaster to be built at Universal Florida

    I’m not sure it was very smart for Universal on deciding to make this new coaster an outdoor- coaster. I think Universal Japan has a coaster very similar to the one mentioned on this thread, and although it does look like a fun and thrilling coaster, it’s also a real eye-sore that doesn’t fit...

    THis may not really be news, but...

    Don't forget that Disney also bad-mouthed McDonald's at the end of their contract by saying that they didn't want their characters associated with unhealthy eating habbits. In the end, money is always more important than pride and that's OK with me... I'm happy to see WDW back at McDonald's...

    Attendance at theme parks continues to skyrocket

    Magic Kingdom is just a monster in attendance.:eek: I can't believe the park actually managed to cross the 17 million people mark!:eek: That's a huge accomplishment!:eek: DHS and Animal Kingdom also saw amazing gains in attendance. All 4 of WDW parks are now really thriving... It's...

    New Travel Channel Schedule

    Too bad Travel Channel isn't in HD yet. Discovery HD Theater just had two Disney World specials on this past week and everything looked amazing. I hope these new specials will make their way over to Discovery HD Theater as well sooner or later because these WDW specials in SD just won't cut...

    BIG Ratings News

    “American Idol” is by far the highest rated show on TV and has been since 2002. No other show can touch it in terms of how many millions of viewers tune-in for each new episode weekly. Shows like “CSI” and “Grey’s Anatomy” have been averaging a good 3-8 million less viewers for each new...
