    News Disney’s DuckTales World Showcase Adventure Announced for Play Disney Parks Mobile App at Epcot

    Agent P was (is) a fantasatic hidden treat, gave WS an additional layer of depth. Ducktails is a perfect series to move to now P&F is fading into the archives. Hopefully they will do a litle more than slap a few stickers over the existing props, to mix it up for anybody who has done it all before.

    Transformative Multi-Year Expansion Announced for WDS Paris

    There are 1000 litres in a cubic metre, and a US gallon is 3.78541 litres. So that is 17,699,527 US gallons, or 54.3 acre foot. Can anyone do the math on what the average depth will be, assuming the lake is a perfect circle? Thats beond what I recall of volume etc.

    Thoughts on a Skyliner between Transportation and Ticket Center, Magic Kingdom and Wilderness Lodge?

    I think they should be considering moving the TTC south into the Alladin lot, and integrating it all into a 2 or 3 storey parking lot. It would mean a little new resort loop track, and moving the ferry dock a little South; but that lake-side area is all prime real estate for new resorts and DVC.

    Is Disneyland Paris better than the parks at WDW?

    Paris Magic Kingdom is better than Orlando.... better layout, better versions of rides etc. The layout of the resort, with hotels and the 2nd gate, all within walking distance is also much better than WDW, and having an international train line in the middle, with an airport transfer of 10...

    MFSR 40 minutes; Slinky Dog 50

    It is interesting how the land nobody wanted, Avatar, was a huge success; whilst the land everybody wanted is under performing. ROTR will probably change that if it lives up to the hype. You get the distinct impression Disney marketing has really messed up. Everybody heard the place would be...

    Rumor New ride coming to Animal Kingdom. D23 announcement expected.

    I always wonder if they would consider building a modern Aquarium and moving the Seas Pavilions residents across to AK. That would give them a way to build a Monorail hotel at the Epcot gate by redeveloping that area, and having all the zoo elements in a single park. The oceans would be a good...

    Transformative Multi-Year Expansion Announced for WDS Paris

    A cheap Avengers overlay for the next couple of years for Lights Motors makes sense. The format of making a movie could stretch to that theme, and it would be something "new" they can advertise. Once some of the lakeside stuff is open, they can afford to lose the attraction, which is a bit long...

    Am I Alone... WDW Food is BAD

    Epcot's Fish and Chips are just wrong.... 2 oblong fillets in a smooth batter is not something you ever be given in a UK chippy.... it should be 1 large randomly shaped fillet in bubbly batter. Harp lager died out about 30 years ago too. Cooks of Dublin in Disney Springs is a much more...

    Transformative Multi-Year Expansion Announced for WDS Paris

    They really should suspend one park tickets whilst the Studios have so much work going on. It isn't offering a full days entertainment, so only sell tickets giving entrance to both gates until there is an improved offering at the Studios.

    Grand Floridian to Magic Kingdom Walkway

    A bridge like the Gateshead Millennium Bridge would work splendidly to retain canal access. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gateshead_Millennium_Bridge

    Has there ever been any legitimacy to the long-standing "rumor" of a Villains-themed park?

    If Disney ever get serious about a 5th gate, they should just make a 2nd Magic Kingdom park. The current one is full, but the most popular park. Make a copy over the TTC and put multi storey parking lots with monorail access in. They could close it in off season (if that ever happens), and...

    Animal Kingdom Lodge vs. Yacht Club (Suprise We're Going to Beach Club)

    AKL is a great hotel, has the Disney feel but is very relaxed being a little further away from the hustle and bustle of the parks. It is a completely different setup being at the Epcot resorts. You are able to walk, get a boat (or Gondola?) to the parks, have shops and restaurants on the...

    Dining Reservations not showing in plans

    Try looking on the web version as well. In my experience, the two don't always agree on the bookings you have.

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner -

    Nobody has to stay at any of the resorts. If you don"t like the look or the concept, choose one of the many other on site resorts to stay at. It does feel like Disney is just catching up with 1960s Butlins in the UK ;-)

    Long live the Eastern Gateway or how I learned to love the Anaheim City Council after the election.

    Blackpool Pleasure Beach in the UK has a road right through the middle. You don't notice it, although it does affect the layout significantly. https://maps.app.goo.gl/cPgAd5op3eLhy4Ex8

    New Roundup Rodeo BBQ sit-down restaurant coming to TSL

    The strings of lights are one of the best indicators that we are supposed to feel toy sized in the Toy Story lands to my mind. A lot of the other stuff feels like they are giant objects, but the lights are really effective. I can't think of a better lighting solution that is practical and on theme.

    New Roundup Rodeo BBQ sit-down restaurant coming to TSL

    A lot of the structures in Pixar place don't look structural. I wonder if they could join enough bits there to build an Als Toy Barn frontage (at an angle across to Joffreys) and have a large merch store using the Pixar Place real estate? It would bring the entrance to the land forward quite a...
