    Favorite Underrated Animatronic!

    I'll say the hippos in Jungle Cruise. They're simple but the bobbing up and down in the water really makes me smile.

    What part do you miss most about UoE?

    Honestly, I miss the soundtrack and design of the attraction. The rotating screens in the pre-show (at least before the Ellen refurb) were marvels. The subject of the show was presented in a dignified fashion, too. I wasn't around for its original incarnation but I was pleasantly surprised by...

    Where in WDW is your “happy place”?

    Theres a few, but I love walking the trail behind dinosaur in anima kingdom. Hardly anyone back there at most hours, and its very surreal to be able to walk through a forested trail in the middle of a huge park.

    Favorite cancelled project/attraction?

    The St Louis park that Walt wanted to build after Disneyland opened. There isnt a whole lot of info (online at least) about the park, but from what I’ve read, this was before WDW was even thought up. Wouldve been interesting to see how the parks division changed if not for WDW.

    Favorite "Little Detail"

    I always appreciated the caged spider in the jungle cruise queue. Never fails to surprise young ones when it jumps about

    My Unpopular WDW Opinion - post yours!

    Probably has been said but I think Animal Kingdom really is the best park on property. The background music to the lighting of the park at night, especially with Pandora, is just very well planned and executed. The food is pretty spectacular, and I really adore the smaller details of the park...

    Whats a piece of media you discovered on resort tv?

    If I recall correctly, its one of the first few channels when you first turn the tv on. Channel 5 or so sounds about right.

    Whats a piece of media you discovered on resort tv?

    I happened to come across a channel that broadcast only the new Mickey Mouse shorts. I was very surprised to see the Mickey characters restored to a more mischivious and childlike personality, and I thought the art was very pleasing to the eys! Wound up leaving that channel on in the room.

    What is your favorite ride scene?

    For me its floating over London in Peter Pans Flight. The scaling of the town below the ships really makes you feel so high up. Such a sleepy little ride in general.

    The fate of Star Tours?

    I remember reading about some ideas that WDI tossed about during the early days of Hollywood Studios. One of those was The Great Muppet Movie Ride featuring Muppets parodies of each scene from the original ride. Would be kind of brilliant if they rethemed Star Tours to feature the Muppets in...

    Your favorite relaxing spots.

    I think the boat ride back to any of the Magic Kingdom resorts from said park are very relaxing. Hearing the boat's whistles and being on the water is a nice way to end the day. Seeing the Electrical Water Pageant is a plus.

    Scariest Animatronic ?

    This may just be me, but when I was younger, I used to wonder about what the animatronics did after the parks shut for the night. The one that I thought about a lot was the Michaelangelo figure in Spaceship Earth, painting the Sistine Chapel but never finishing it. The other ones that got to me...

    Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Since the announcement of this land, I always felt DHS could benefit a lot better from a PixarLand instead of just one IP. The whole Pixar Place, where TSMM is, even has a pretty nice entrance. I have to say, WDI missed a big chance to have a play ground like the Honey I Shrunk the Kids one. I...

    Favourite Resturants

    I'd like to recommend Artist's Point at Wilderness Lodge. I have never been a big fan of fish, but the Pacific Salmon, along with the raspberry sorbet, was absolutely marvelous. The ambiance was very well crafted. And our waitress was really attentive and asked us about our trip so far. Really...

    RnRC New Theme Discussion

    I always thought this would make the most sense in terms of adding something GoTG related to the parks. Pipe in some Blue Suede and Redbone in the seat speakers. Even the giant guitar on the building's facade lends itself fairly well to Star Lord's fun loving attitude.

    Additional Attractions versus Replacement Attractions

    I definitely agree with this. Leading up to the opening of Pandora, it became clear in my mind that, while the new area may not have many rides, its purpose to reign in new interest for Animal Kingdom and alleviate crowding concerns was the primary function (in my opinion). Regardless of what...

    New WDW Today Loop (Information Channel)

    I honestly really enjoy these loops. Its been a past time of mine to leave it on this channel while we get ready to go to the parks in the morning! The loops from about ten years ago have always been my favorite. Chic, elevator-esque remixes of Disney songs!

    Most memorable Magical Moment you ever had!

    I remember during the Year of A Million Dreams we were at the Magic Kingdom and one of the things CM's could approach guests for was an opportunity to be in the Main Street Family Fun Day Parade. Our family was chosen to march down Main Street along with a couple others. That was a pretty...
