We went last year at Thanksgiving and had a great time, so we are going again this year. We didn’t go to any parks on Thanksgiving Day, just swam in the pool and hung out at the hotel, but had dinner at Chef Mickey’s. Chef Mickey’s did have turkey and other Thanksgiving traditions on the buffet...

The Garden Grill @ EPCOT Center was my favorite restaurant in all of Disney, until they changed the menu now it’s a bit further down the list. 1. 50’s Prime Time @ Disney/MGM 2. Cinderella’s Royal Table (is that what it’s called now?) @ Magic Kingdom 3. Coral Reef @ EPCOT Center 4. Garden...

Are Hoop De Doo and Spirit of Aloha the only dinner shows? :veryconfu I can’t think of any others. I would like to see a dinner show when we go this Thanksgiving, but am not sure what show to see, I’ve seen Hoop De Doo but not the Spirit of Aloha, but I doubt my sister’s family would sit...

40 Days left!!! We’re staying at Dixie Landings er…. Riverside, and will be there over Thanksgiving (for the 2nd year - becoming a tradition) we’re not sure what we are going to do. My sister’s family is staying off property so we’ll need to coordinate things (she was going to stay with us but...

It has been so long, it’s hard for me to remember, but the two memories I have from that time are the Haunted Mansion (I remember my Grandmother pretending the ghosts were real and that they really followed us home) and Mr. Toad’s Wild ride. I’m not sure what ride was actually the first one I...

I never thought of the Stargate comparisons, I don’t think that Atlantis was a direct rip-off, but you’re right about how close the early parts of the plots are however the motivations of the “team” is completely different between the two films. I think what I find the most attractive about...

No - Atlantis was a great film, it just needed to be about an hour longer or a mini-series. The story was way to complex to fit into such a short movie with so many characters. Naturally without a longer running time and with so many characters, the film … well … wasn’t all that it could have...

Fantasia was a bigger bomb in its day. Should we forget about it???

If you think back to when Disneyland (and Walt Disney World) first opened the only land to have rides based on films was Fantasyland (yes I remember the Swiss Family Tree House, but that came after DL opened), until recent years the other lands had been untouched (for the most part) and they...

Now forgive me if I’m wrong here but wasn’t the entire re-design (if you can call it that) of Tomorrowland based around the X-S Teach Convention Center concept. It was my understanding that the entire Rocket-Tower Plaza area was serving as a place (in the far-flung-far-out-future) where...

Thanks

I’ve been known to download few tunes in my time, but I also have hundreds of purchased CDs. However I’ve started a new obsession and that’s the music of Disneyland Paris. I was there in September 2001 and bought the only two CDs I could find, one was the park CD and the other was the Toon...

You know what … I bet this is the doing of that evil Michael Eisner, you know every bad thing that has ever happened at Disney is all his … what? … he what? … no?!? Oh gosh now who do we blame????

I can beat that I paid 6 bucks to park in Miami for 15 minutes.

On the subjects of TV specials, I have (or had) a tape that had the making of Captain EO, Ernest goes to Splash Mountain, the Making of the Disney/MGM Studios and I believe the Start Tours Preview. I can no longer find the tape!!! If any of you can point me in the direction of where to find...

About time!!! :sohappy:

Great I’ll look up some and post them, but I have to ask if anyone has the recipe for the catfish from the Garden Grill in the Land pavilion at EPCOT, they don’t have it anymore and I’m missing it.

Well finally I have a reason to go back to McDonalds. Once I had a kid I stopped going so much, the food is just so bad for him. But once my boy got older we started going again, but the movie Super-Size Me put an end to that. I only go to Mickey Ds when they have cool Disney stuff but I end up...

Well I’m no Doctor Phil but I would say that the “Golden Age” is different for everyone. It depends on how you look at things. I feel the “Golden Age” for me was when the Grand Floridian was under construction and EPCOT Center (that’s the parks name I don’t care what you say) was new, but...

How are the maintenance fees? I heard that Disney can jack them up every year and to be honest that’s what keeps us away.
