I'm glad. Overall I don't see a problem with the Princess line, but Merida's uniqueness helps to redefine what a "princess" is perceived to be. Her confidence and admitted flaws made her unique and appealing. You don't need glitter and lip gloss to be a princess, but it doesn't make you any...

The concept art looks great! I immediately was reminded of Soundsational's floats. So glad to see the MK getting a new parade, it definitely needed it.

Spectacular! The effects are gorgeous and it's nice to see several quality AA's in there. The finale was amazing, and the trackless ride system is always impressive. People are no doubt going to compare to The Haunted Mansion, but the theme and mood is so different that it's more like a...

I love seeing these videos. Not only are the delightfully nostalgic, as I first went to WDW in the early 90's, I love seeing the fluorescent 90's clothing! :p I also owned of those plastic Daisy hats they show in the video. (That thing was heavy!)

Yes! She had always wanted to go, but her family could never manage when she was a child. I had gone as a kid a few times, so when we went in 2011 it was amazing to experience it as adults. Even though it was her first trip, it was like re-discovering everything again for me. We both...

If Sindbad came to Epcot I would lose my mind, just saying. Imagine all the Chandu plushies they would sell! Even if a Doctor Who ride is just a dream, it's a beautiful one.

The ballroom scene in "Beauty and the Beast" is so elegant and straightforward, it always gets to me. Seconding about the feeling on the last day of vacation...it's always so bittersweet. No one ever wants to say, "ok, we're done"! (For non-Disney, can I geek out for a moment and say series 3...

Thank you kindly! :)

I love Ariel's current dress, and agree that a lot of the film designs wouldn't quite work in person. (Those sleeves!) The off the shoulder look of the new dress doesn't seem to have the right fit, and looks less regal in comparison when standing next to a dress like Belle's. Off the shoulder...

Some favorites from our last trip/MNSSHP:

Having perhaps too much fun at Gaston's Tavern.

My first ride is always The Haunted Mansion; it's a tradition set by my family back in the 70's! Whenever I go with a first timer, I bring them to it first to really "wow" them with what an attraction can be.

I'm loving the new fabrics! They add a dimension in comparison to the plain satin, which can look a bit flat and shiny under a camera's flash. No question, Belle's dress is the showstopper- I can't get over the draping! (And can we talk about Snow's shoes? How cute!)

I picked up a HM shirt last trip that was actually designed for a woman! It was exciting as most of the HM shirts I see are unisex, and don't really appeal to me. It's a light blue shirt with the HHGs and a few images from the ride. A pleasant surprise.

Last trip during late EMH we walked up to the train station balcony and spend about an hour there. The crowd levels were extremely low, and it was a perfect October night. I distinctly remember "Married Life" from Up playing as we waited for the kiss goodnight. It was probably he most...

I do hope something big happens to DTD soon, as I never was enthused by the chain store offerings at DTD. When I'm on a WDW vacation, I expect and hope for unique stores and concepts. The homogenization of the Disney merchandise is a bit disconcerting, but I always liked the set ups of stores...

He was frozen during an October 2012 trip, I believe it was the morning of the 15th if you're interested in specifics! :p It's disappointing to see him stationary, since he's so out in the open and it's blatantly obvious if something is wrong with him.

Last trip, the alioramus was completely frozen in place when we rode during morning EMH. It was disappointing and killed the mood for the rest of the ride. It was a shame, since when he's working he's a great figure! A side note: Back when it was "Countdown to Extinction", my grandmother...

I managed to have both the drinks on my last trip. I really enjoyed both of them, but it's hard to compare a sweet/creamy drink with a tangy fruit one! The frozen Butterbeer was lovely, but it upset my stomach a bit. It might have been too early in the day for a sweet frozen drink. The LeFou's...

I feel that improved show lighting could "sell" the underwater concept better. @flynnibus said it perfectly, too much unfocused white light makes your eyes wander versus draw your attention to a specific area.
