    News New Polynesian Resort DVC villas building to open 2024

    I like Tikiman, but he's a way off the mark. Most, if not all, of the criticism thus far of the Polyday Inn / Hale Moena Low Income Housing Complex (FL Annex) is about its exterior. But nice attempt at a strawman visual argument and deflection.

    News New Polynesian Resort DVC villas building to open 2024

    I'd like to apologize to the Polyday Inn defenders. I am sorry. After seeing the paint job, I now realize that this new DVC tower is super appropriate since its design appears reminiscent of a real complex in Polynesia. The Hale Moena affordable housing units in Kapolei, but with balconies. I...

    I'll throw this question in here again: does anybody know if this new tower will feature a gym? Or will the small Grand Floridian gym now play host to 3 hotels ' worth of guests instead of the current 2?

    MK New Disney Vacation Club Member Lounge coming to Walt Disney World

    Well, that stinks. The Disneyland shooting gallery is largely responsible for stoking an interest in one of my favorite hobbies and past times.

    Are there any people who still insist that this thing does not look like a Hampton Inn? Great job, Disney. They've even managed to exceed the lazy mediocrity that has become their signature lately.

    EPCOT Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    Which is exactly how I felt about the airport concourse food area they built in place of the Electric Umbrella. I just heard the office park park lighting is already broken. 🤣

    EPCOT Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    A better question would be "What town center shopping center or what corporate office park doesn't have a park like this?"

    EPCOT Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    It looks pretty, but EPCOT's been a total mess for five years... for this?

    News Disney World's Magic Kingdom is experiencing widescale attraction closures this morning due to a bear

    Looks like the woods just behind It's a Small World. Love that video's audio. Reminds me of UVB-76

    W Thanks for posting that since I don't think I've read anything so far about what the plan was for parking or expanding the Polynesian parking lot and I wondered about the impact on the existing GF Villas and Wedding Pavilion parking lots. Looks like ~ 160 new spots in a dedicated lot. I...

    News Disney World's Magic Kingdom is experiencing widescale attraction closures this morning due to a bear

    I was tempted to leave my den and post in this thread as an opportunity to gripe about the unbearable changes announced for Country Bear Jamboree, but I had the forbearance to know my griping would be unbearable. This fun bit of news is certainly upbearing WDW chatter for the day and I have...

    EPCOT Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    When did the demolition and construction begin? 2019? And when is it expected that it will be complete and the walls removed?

    Does anyone else feel the urgency to visit WDW at this point more than ever?

    Not really. The parks have been in a tailspin for a long time. Maybe even before all of the forced and cringe IP insertion synergy stuff really hit critical mass. If anything, the only urge I have now related to Disney parks is to visit Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea if/when I ever visit...

    News New Polynesian Resort DVC villas building to open 2024

    Construction quality of respective buildings has absolutely nothing to do with the question of whether or not the GF gym will now serve 3 resorts instead of 2, or if the new resort will serve 2 and the GF gym will serve only 1 in the future.

    Pretty sure I already posted something relevent waaay earlier in this thread. But here's another one. Take your Polyday Inn concept art, strip away the palm trees and boardwalk. Or take your average Hampton Inn, add palm trees, and a flying overhang or whatver that element is called over the...
