    Dinoland Characters of Yore

    I'm also a big Dinoland fan. I'm working on taking pictures of all of Dinoland's small details; I hope to get everything up on a website eventually so even when it's gone people can see how much stuff was packed into the place. Did you know Dinoland has three characters you can see repeatedly...

    Place online to find recordings of Dinoland's "radio announcers"?

    Sadly, no. Though I actually totally forgot I was going to send a Reddit message, so that might still be a workable lead if I tried.

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    The kid is supposed to be a parallel to Shortround and make you like Helena more because "see! She's got a heart and she's actually a lot like Indy!". I think they have the same "he tried to pick my pocket" backstory. He just doesn't have any of the stuff that made Shortround likeable, and and...

    Wish (Walt Disney Animation - November 2023)

    The weird thing about Wish is that a huge issue for it is being stuffed with way too many characters, but most of them aren't there for any kind of storytelling reason. - All of Asha's friends are there to be a reference to the seven dwarfs. Maybe at one point they planned for just one and they...

    Wish (Walt Disney Animation - November 2023)

    This film promoted and styled itself as a celebration of Disney's legacy. Aside from the implication that you should be celebrating your hundreth anniversary with something worthy of your amazing legacy (which simueltaneously gives the whole movie a veneer of arrogance and angers people because...

    Wish (Walt Disney Animation - November 2023)

    Surely they know, though, right? Everyone has to know he handpicks? He's very open about "I have been challenged to take a risk today...", no one seems confused by that. Asha seems convinced she can nudge him towards her grandfather's and he says that's happened before. Then again the people...

    Wish (Walt Disney Animation - November 2023)

    Something I think is very important and never see brought up is that Magnifico specifically has a line about the people who come to Roxas failing to achieve their wishes and coming there because of that. "You're completely missing the point; people come here because they know they cannot make...

    Wish (Walt Disney Animation - November 2023)

    Walt was always very open about how he wasn't making kids' movies and even found the idea of stuff solely for children dumb. I think you can see the shift in the company's view pretty clearly with the recent live action remakes and how they handle the exact same concepts. Just look at how they...

    New Enhancements, Dining Options Coming to Disney’s BoardWalk

    Now I'm worried that, if Bon Voyage Breakfast ever shows up again, they'll have a new character lineup there, too. This was the only place to meet Flynn or Eric and I want them back or at least someone exclusive.

    News 1900 Park Fare at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort reopening in April 2024

    It's wishes, but not the actual act of making a wish, more the concept of having a desire. Otherwise known as a base part of characters in Western culture. Literally every film fits. They might as well not even have a theme.

    Wish (Walt Disney Animation - November 2023)

    How is this being judged? Are films put onto Disney Plus in bundles after premiering before the service debuted having "premiere" numbers counted? Because Disney Plus debuted in 2019 and Walt Disney Animation Studios has only made five films since then. (Of course, even if they track all of...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    Cool. Just like how we were all too stupid to understand Lightyear. No dumb ideas, just dumb audiences, apparently.

    Wish (Walt Disney Animation - November 2023)

    - Entire movie gets criticized for feeling like it's so busy aping previous films it doesn't have its own identity - Including the protagonist, who is called a boring clone of previous, very recent characters - Shove in extra characters solely to say it's like the seven dwarves - "We had to...

    celebration cakes

    I wouldn't. They're a cute novelty, but the cake itself is really strange. The outer coating is jelly-like and the inside tastes more like some cake mixed with pudding (apparently it's mousse?). It went almost entirely uneaten when we bought one and we haven't even considered trying one again.

    Rumor Frontierland Shootin' arcade to close and replaced with DVC Member lounge

    That's why I added the little bit about how these people aren't artists and so don't care. Splash opened in 89/92.

    Rumor Frontierland Shootin' arcade to close and replaced with DVC Member lounge

    That's already been happening; apparently they can't reference her in frog form anymore. Note that they were trying very hard to be sensitive when they made that movie and did in fact change things in the concept stage people didn't like, so it's safe to say they were listening and no one said...

    Rumor Frontierland Shootin' arcade to close and replaced with DVC Member lounge

    I just walked past this place yesterday and wondered when they were going to get rid of it. Somehow I just find it hard to believe there's no other possible spot they could do this without taking something away and further crippling a land they insist on continually making worse.

    News Another content creator banned from WDW

    I really admire the people like that cast member who have the patience and restraint to go up to idiots like this and keep their cool while the idiots babble at them.

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    I like it. Especially since it's kinda in the same vein as the acrobats in China or chair stackers in France that we never got back (though, admittedly, not as cool).
