Not a 'real' lightsaber (Disney isn't into weapons tech) -- presumably (according to a patent) it's two swirling pieces of plastic that unspring, sorta like a corkscrew from a slightly larger-than-average hilt to make the fuzzy glo-toy "fssh!" look, kinda like the way the glo-carts have those...

I wasn't arguing, I was simply agreeing, haha!

I mean, yeah, absolutely. I wish we could have both. Do you think they cost about the same amount?

To the point of the goat and Barnabas -- I don't think the inclusion of him hurts the actual attraction in any way. What the area did was make one of the most interminable outdoor queues at Walt Disney World less horrible to wait in. I can happily use my Fastpass at a different attraction...

First off, I love the character design for Alberta. Second, this character has been around since the Skipper Canteen, as has her entire backstory (Love that the mom is named Sneh Falls, hilarious). "Adventureland" as a place has been canonicalized far earlier with the opening of Skipper Canteen...

I had always said that something like MagiQuest would have been an excellent fit for DisneyQuest, but these are all wonderful ideas. I've done Boda Borg before, and it's a lot of fun. Essentially, it's a ton of mini DIY escape rooms that you don't get any rules about until you enter, and then...

I think writing a BTMRR/Frontierland storyline with meaningful indigenous narratives and the connection to Frontierland would be really excellent. Isn't Paris' story that the "curse" on the mountain is due to the "Thunderbird"? Or they could conversely ignore it and make it a spell that Madame...

Agreed. I'm surprised there isn't an Enchanted Tales with Vader experience in the (empty?) building that was supposed to be the restaurant (if that's how the land was built, I am a little confused what happened to the concept). Make the back of this building an entry into one of the giant "black...

It hadn't occured to me till you said that that they also changed the flood lighting from the traditional orange hint to a more night sky purple to match the rest of the icons. Really smart and subtle.

I'd actually heard that they were not planning on holding M&G in the land at all, or else that this was at least an idea.

Looking at the site: Eek, I hate that they are advertising the cast members as a feature of the event. It really furthers the guest perception that they are advanced audio-animatronics and is a transparent attempt to erase the effects of COVID. I also hate the phrase "Classic Favorites and...

The way the Disney Parks Blog talks, they make it seem that the "fireflies" in the Tree of Life are going to be physical effects, as they also make the SSE effects seem. I think both of these will actually look really, really nice. It reminds of the fiber-optic sidewalk that used to be at EPCOT...

He looks incredible. I can't wait to see the rest. Will be interesting to see if heights changed to make the four regular characters closer to their movie heights, in comparison.

1. I know "I should be glad that we get anything", but does it not sting for anyone else when they discuss "classic rides" as a major selling point for the anniversary, and (obviously, for good reason) not parades or fireworks? It's very hard to get excited about this. 2. I'm liking the tease...

And Camilia Falco, from Tokyo's Soarin', and the women in the Adventurers Club. The nasty men in the Adventurer's Club often got their comeuppance, too, especially Hathaway Browne and Otis T. Wren. Alberta Falls, the presumed current runner of the Jungle Cruise and Skipper Canteen, as seen in...

I think this is honestly one of the most intelligent discussions I’ve seen on these boards. I honestly think there’s nothing more to say on the subject. Pivoting for a moment, do you suppose that the boats will get onboard music/narration aka Kilimanjaro Safaris/Great Movie Ride? I wonder what...

I don’t see the big problem here. The punchline is more visual and more funny to me than “ha ha these people have fezzes and the white guy’s on top.” Not that I had a problem before, but I think I like that this new joke has layers in it. You get it all at once, but repeat visits have Easter...

Zootopia makes more sense to me in the “Play!” Pavillion with Wreck-It Ralph and the Incredibles. The franchises that are set in modern day with vague technological marvels and don’t have a particularly country, time period, or story about animals in a natural earth-based environment.

That’s true, especially when you consider the Breaking Baaaaaad moment.

Without getting too political, I think that it would be interesting to green light this on the heels of PatF (in Splash), considering the optics of a police officer being one of the lead characters and the film’s unique way of dealing with social issues that may or may not have aged well in this...
