    News Disney to develop residential communities with new 'Storyliving by Disney' business

    Agreed. But I also think this is what will either attract people to buy in or brush this off.

    News Disney to develop residential communities with new 'Storyliving by Disney' business

    I think the major issue with this press release is that it does not once conjure a “story” - instead, it lists off buildings and amenities. They never discuss what it will be to live in this community - and how to engage in “storyliving”. They don’t even give a fake Town backstory or examples of...

    News Disney to develop residential communities with new 'Storyliving by Disney' business

    This feels very 90s Disney, which to me is a very good thing. Because there will be a hotel, I imagine some of the “Disney entertainment” will be pretty good. My predictions: - The first on-land Paolo’s. - The resurrection of a concept like Club Disney or DisneyQuest. - A restauraunt with...

    News Disney CEO Bob Chapek hails the metaverse as 'the next great storytelling frontier' and sets up a new team at Disney to create new experiences

    …does this mean they’re bringing back VMK? Because, despite whatever gobbledygook Chapek says to make this seem like this was his original idea, I would enjoy that.

    Social distanced Fantasmic coming by February.

    I feel like they might incorporate Pocahontas at the end, if not just to pay homage to the previous scene, and to not appear as if they’re getting rid of “American Indian Representation” — I imagine Disney would be shrewd like that.

    Those Voices costumes are awful. They make other performers all around World Showcase dress in period/“national” costume, I see no reason for these performers, who ostensibly are singing songs from the nation’s past, to sing in period costume. If people are upset by the colonial ware due to the...

    Chapek and D'Amaro continue the tradition of no bonus or Christmas gift for Disney's Cast Members

    As a CP about three years ago, I remember getting a very cheap-looking but thoughtful metal/tin Christmas ornament with the 101 Dalmatians on it. I still hang it on the tree. Really stinks they’re not doing this any more.

    Rumor Indiana Jones to possibly reopen this holiday with changes

    First off, I think that it’s okay to be okay with some sensitivity changes and dislike others. I’m glad they no longer portray a clueless audience member, especially as if they are a dumb, non-English speaking tourist. Not only was the effect hokey, but I imagine this could offend a great many...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    For those complaining that this woman is using an iPhone, this is done for a story reason, clearly. It's priming you to accept constant iPhone use in the Star Wars Universe, because the Play Disney Parks app is going to be ESSENTIAL to following this experience, and if you can't accept Star Wars...

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    After reading an article on the Forbidden Site, I have been wondering about what Cast Members will do about recovery situations. While it is easy enough to do a single access to a Lightning Lane queue for those that have not purchased Genie+, what good is a "multiple experience" pass for...

    Fantasmic Reopening Watch

    I’m pretty sure the “adventure” sequence is going to be a mash-up on three different parts of the stage of Anna and Kristoff being attacked by Marshmallow at the top of the mountain as Elsa shuns them, Moana trying to restore the heart of Te Fiti as she rows her boat, and Aladdin and Jasmine in...

    Food portion cuts to increase profits?

    Comment and current discussion aside, isn’t it smart of Disney to make “meals” smaller in order to promote more “snacks”? Snacks are probably easier to make, and as we’ve seen, they’re HIGHLY marketable. I’ve never seen a Le Cellier steak on a dress before. Snacks have become as much of a...

    News Walt Disney World holidays 2021

    The thematically appropriate character overlays are infuriatingly jealousy-inducing. They get the princes on their float, as well as what looks like a fully-staffed dance crew (which ALSO performs on normal days.) Hans, Oaken and the Duke of Weselton are out, as well as Elsa in her blue holiday...

    News Disney plans to include a black Santa Claus at Walt Disney World this year as the company continues its diversity and inclusion program

    Several years ago, I was told by a World Showcase cast member that they have the “Real Santa” at Epcot. Initially I was confused because there are upwards of four Santa stories being told at the same time around the lagoon. Of course he meant the one “in America”. I went to visit him, and he...

    Food portion cuts to increase profits?

    And, even as I am horrified by the syntax and gaffs that were given out by the company, I would not mind smaller portion sizes myself. Many single portion meals serve at least two. But hiding within this comment are indications that Genie’s price might increase, that the company may begin making...

    Food portion cuts to increase profits?

    I can’t believe, of all companies, a company that LITERALLY MAKES HAND BAGS SHAPED LIKE HOT DOGS, a company that is pushing a PURPLE WRAPPER ON THEIR ICE CREAM AS A MAJOR CELEBRATION OF THEIR 50TH ANNIVERSARY, has the gall to, in PUBLIC, call out their guests for being fat. I mean yeah. There...

    If the MSEP is returning to Disneyland, what happens to Magic Happens?

    I’d have to agree with that. Those late-night hours with the spray of Splash on you as you looked out onto the purple-blue castle in the Florida humidity at 11:00 pm, watching Spectro come down Frontierland. That’s the magic.
