    New Maleficent Parks Costume

    ^ Thank you!! ^ It's a great costume - the skin is a little too green and shiny, but the robes and horns are great!

    New Maleficent Parks Costume

    This is obviously just promotion for the new movie. If the movie is a hit, they may keep the character in her "Angelina Jolie" version at Disney Studios, but most likely for parades and shows she'll stay with the animated version's costume. HOWEVER, I've always thought that the Maleficent...

    Festival of Fantasy Parade coming to Magic Kingdom in 2014

    There's an old parade float that still makes an appearance at Halloween with Jack Sparrow on top, sort of like a large rocky cliff. If they repainted it, it would be fun maybe at halloween or some other special event to have Philip on top in front of the dragon "fighting" it. Not in the actual...

    Festival of Fantasy Parade coming to Magic Kingdom in 2014

    Maybe they'll add a pre-parade for Frozen. It could happen. They just need some sort of large ice-like castle float...

    Festival of Fantasy Parade coming to Magic Kingdom in 2014

    Reasoning that they didn't include Frozen because the design/build process was already in the late stages before Frozen's release is in fact very fair. Frozen debuted at Thanksgiving and it's now January and the parade is already complete and sitting in the park pretty much. Parades like these...

    Festival of Fantasy Parade coming to Magic Kingdom in 2014

    While I find the parade floats from Disney's Tokyo parades in general to be beautifully designed and visually stunning, they're a little too abstract for me. I prefer the more literal settings represented by the floats in the American parks. That's just my personal taste though.

    Festival of Fantasy Parade coming to Magic Kingdom in 2014

    I also have a hunch that there is no "mystery float" as well. I think there will be eight in total. I could be wrong though.

    Festival of Fantasy Parade coming to Magic Kingdom in 2014

    They said "Part of a train set" didn't they? I think that could actually refer to the Princess float or Pinocchio float. A train may not necessarily mean an actual steam-engine-style train, it can also mean a series of vehicles linked together. Both the Princess and Pinocchio floats are made up...

    Festival of Fantasy Parade coming to Magic Kingdom in 2014

    There will most likely be 8 floats: Mickey's Balloon Brave Tangled The Little Mermaid Pinocchio/Dumbo Princess Garden Peter Pan Sleeping Beauty The Sleeping Beauty float won't be the one from Paris - I'm pretty sure it was destroyed when they got their new parade back in 2007.

    Festival of Fantasy Parade coming to Magic Kingdom in 2014

    With the new "Maleficent" movie coming out it would make sense to have a big Sleeping Beauty float in the parade. A great choice too, such a beautifully animated movie should make a great inspiration for the parade's most "spectacular" float.

    Festival of Fantasy Parade coming to Magic Kingdom in 2014

    I'm really glad that there's finally been some progress on the long-rumoured "Festival of Fantasy Parade". Definitely a few surprises in the line-up though - I'm really happy to see that there might be a Sleeping Beauty float as there has been very few units in any parade at any park dedicated...

    SpectroMagic being prepped for return..

    I completely agree with this post. Nostalgia is wonderful but really Disney should be taking full advantage of the technology available today to make a parade that would leave its predecessors in the dust. I'm sorry, but people are now using more sophisticated lights on their houses at christmas...

    SpectroMagic being prepped for return..

    I generally find the "you can't judge something from youtube" attitude rather maddening. You can see the parades in hundreds of different videos of varying quality, from the hazy cell phone clips to the almost professionally shot HD videos by devoted fans who make it their business to document...

    Magic Kingdom Parade for 2012

    Wow.... It's been running for a quarter of the time that the park has been open. I never thought of it that way.... Yeah it's time for a new one. Actually it was time for a new one years ago. I'd say a new parade is in development SOMEWHERE down the line. Surely there must be someone in the...

    SpectroMagic being prepped for return..

    I don't think arguing over which parade has better floats or better music is going to do any good. There will never be a definitive answer to which is best because people have different tastes. Someone who loves MSEP and saw it in its prime is always going to enjoy it more than spectro, just as...

    interesting Spectromagic rumor

    Hmmm, I think running a parade in Downtown Disney, although it would no doubt be popular, would be difficult as it really has nowhere it can run from/to. There's nowhere to begin it or end it really, and it wouldn't be possible to run it back around to a warehouse without running it back through...

    New Magic Kingdom parade?

    Yes, definitely was a good one! But did you know most of the floats were actually just reused units from other parades? AND the parade was only six floats long. The Beauty and the Beast float came from DL and was used in the early 90s during their annual "fantasy on parade" at christmas (now...

    Was there ever a live wicked witch character on Snow White's Scary Adventures?

    Thanks for all the replies! Yeah it sounds like I must be confused. Perhaps my friend met the witch elsewhere in the park and I misunderstood him when he told the story as he was talking about the ride as well. As for the guidebook, I'm still not entirely sure what was meant by the removal of...

    Was there ever a live wicked witch character on Snow White's Scary Adventures?

    Just something I was curious about. I remember a friend years ago telling me about a trip to WDW where he met the Wicked Witch with his family. I don't remember the conversation too well as I was only very young at the time but I'm almost sure he said that it was on the Snow White ride itself...

    Pictures of the 2011 mugs....too cute!!!

    That may just be one of the most ridiculous things I ever read. Yes, we may be arguing far too long over something so petty here but seriously? Just because a rule is not enforced means it does not exist? So if no laws were enforced against murder anymore it would make it perfectly fine to go...
