    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    It’s the orchestral version from the preshow loop for the fireworks. Gorgeous piece of music.

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    I was told there was a sudden delay in timelines due to a recent issue with fitting show sets and props into the facility. This may have played a role.

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    “This is too weird for EPCOT Entertainment” *looks in the direction of Splashtacular, Daredevil Circus Spectacular, The Kristos, skyleidoscope, and the Cirikli…* Remember kids, it’s liquid magic.

    News Former Walt Disney Imagineer Joe Rohde to be honored as a Disney Legend at D23 2024

    I’ve been spending most days in Dino Rama recently just soaking it up. It’s a beautiful ode to roadside Americana, with lore so carefully jabbing Disney for the fact that carnivals and regional entertainment like Dino Rama grew in popularity because of the Disney Parks. It also embraces the...

    News Former Walt Disney Imagineer Joe Rohde to be honored as a Disney Legend at D23 2024

    If you read closely, it says the master classes are “work sessions”. It sounds to me like he’ll be working as a consultant on new projects as younger Imagineers shadow him. Seems like WDI wanted to announce he was back as a consultant but didn’t want to have to publicly admit that they...

    This is the kind of archival and preservation work that goes so under appreciated in the moment, but means the world decades from now. Bravo.

    News EPCOT's Harmonious to be replaced with new nighttime spectacular Luminous

    No, the show doesn’t use the WWIII barges. They finally get a vacation after years of working way harder than they needed to.

    MSEP ending at Disneyland on Sept 1, WDW return in 2023?

    The Brave unit sitting backstage with her insides gutted for parts would like a word with all of you asking for FoF to return to full strength…

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    I wish WDI would stop trying to fit modern and contemporary design into attractions that take place in eras which wouldn’t have featured these installations. It’s a commonly recurring situation that continuously leaves me puzzled. You’re going through the trouble of fully immersing me Iin an...

    News EPCOT's Harmonious to be replaced with new nighttime spectacular Luminous

    So the super zoom photo I took of the center barge in my iPhone isn’t supported by the site… but it definitely ain’t lowering down. It stayed up last night through the post show and into the evening, until I left World Showcase around 9:57 pm.

    MSEP ending at Disneyland on Sept 1, WDW return in 2023?

    The cuts are more for streetmosphere and character meets/interactions.

    Rumors. Musings. Casual.

    I remember planning short weekend staycations with my parents at Pop for less than $100 a night pre-2020. We forget that some of this stuff has happened *very* recently.

    RnRc Retheme?

    This is pretty much why Guardians ended up being pitched to go to RnRC before Paris sent that idea off the deep end, iirc.

    MSEP ending at Disneyland on Sept 1, WDW return in 2023?

    Unfortunately not. Universal Orlando just saw a massive entertainment cut across all their parks, including plans for EU. This came from individuals within Universal Entertainment.

    MSEP ending at Disneyland on Sept 1, WDW return in 2023?

    This is actually wonderful considering Epic Universe just saw a gargantuan slash in their entertainment plans.

    News Test Track to be reimagined

    What’s always been fascinating to me is the fact that Test Track was part of Transportation’s original plans for much of it’s development. So while I can see that it’s a bit outdated and inferior to Motion, it *is* faithful to concept and purpose.

    New Enhancements, Dining Options Coming to Disney’s BoardWalk

    Funny enough there’s motivation for the longer timelines too. Ratatouille sat completed and ready to go for months, and TRON gave them financial breaks during COVID. I don’t think motivation is the issue. Intention is.
