Was cleaning up some things in storage and I found this old WDW pictorial souvenir book from the early 70s... before Epcot, before Space Mountain, when there was just the Polynesian, Contemporary and Fort Wildnerness. I thought I was an old-schooler but this predates my first visit by 15 years...

So this sounds kind of horrifying and brilliant at the same time. Shame we'll never get to see it. Will be fun to watch the Mouse's lawyers bring down the hammer...

Have y'all ever used Bing Maps -- stop laughing -- used Bing Maps to check out the photos taken from a plane/helicopter? Not just satellite views, mind you. There are some great angles of WDW (and other places) that way. But the interesting thing I've noticed is that a lot of the shots of the...

Much as I love drinking at WDW, I feel like craft beer selections are kind of hit or miss. I'd love a proper craft beer bar somewhere, but absent that... what's the best restaurant or bar with a nice, diverse selection of craft brews? I'm thinking either Wolfgang Puck's or Raglan Road, off the...

http://www.pitchfork.com/news/45193-disney-is-selling-a-joy-division-mickey-mouse-shirt/ So I'm gonna guess that there aren't too many other Joy Division fans on this board... but! Isn't this just a completely strange thing? Nothing says family-friendly and pixie-dust like an incredibly dark...

So one of my most-used tricked for saving money on WDW trips is forgoing the Park Hopper option. Since Park Hopper now seems to be the default on Disney tickets, I'm curious, does anyone else do this? I understand the benefits of the flexibility Park Hoppers offer you, but my ideal way to...

Are any of you members of SniqueAway? They've got a deal for an on-property (but not Disney) hotel this weekend: http://www.sniqueaway.com/secret/event/645/product/677/ SniqueAway is a great resource and very trustworthy. And knowing this is a WDW hotel narrows down the choices compared to...

So I've been thinking, lately, about how much I hate the Transportation and Ticket Center. It's the gateway to the Magic Kingdom, and gives you access to these really cool and unique forms of transportation (monorails and ferries!), and yet it has all the ambiance of a run-down commuter rail...

One thing I've never understood about WDW is why they're so reliant on motorized transport. Why are there just a small handful of walking paths connecting resorts and parks? I know there are a few (Epcot-Boardwalk-Studios, for example), but there aren't enough IMO. You could walk from All-Star...

Disney has apparently told ABC affiliates not to interview Johnny Depp about his new movie "The Rum Diary", based on a Hunter Thompson book. Childish move on Disney's part. Last I checked, "Rum Diary" stars Johnny Depp, not Jack Sparrow (and no, not they're not the same thing). I guess it's only...
