Big changes coming to Boo To You Parade And other MNSSHP changes

[JSchnitz]

I'm surprised they haven't. I can see it happening. But I know they're popular. I think the Halloween parties could use an overhaul in the meet and greet department.

I can't believe they haven't been cut either! I'd like to see them add more villains, like Hades, Malificent, Big Bad Wolf, the Hyenas, Frollo or even any Hunchback characters! They should mix it up more year to year!

So... between the version of Mickey chosen to replace the GMR and the insertion of the descendants, it sure feels like Disney is absolutely panicked by the declining popularity of the Disney Channel. Which, combined with the ESPN problems and the concern suggested by the increased discounts and AP dates in the park... I suspect Iger won't be eager to delay his departure any more.

The Halloween Party has been declining in quality for years, and more cuts is par for the course. One might suggest it isn't worth anything like the ridiculous amount the tickets cost.

Glad we cancelled our trip. We're skipping WDW entirely this year, and sadly we're not even upset!

I heard years ago the Halloween event used to mostly have meet and greets for Villains old and new before they changed the format. Since Halloween was the best time to meet Disney baddies and antagonists.

In short Disney Villians had babies.....Which than were being taught dance lessons from Danny Ortega and learned to sing via re-broadcast of High School Musical......

In other words.....

How was the second one that aired recently? I heard it featured a pirate girl.

While Judy is fun, I truly hope she will be in addition to and not in replacement of Clarabelle Cow. Our family LOVES Clarabelle. Wish Horace would return to the parade as well.

I hope she becomes additional.

Checkout the Disneyland MNSSHP parade and then tell me how unacceptable it is.

It's very short.

It's times like this where I wish Disney XD wasn't premium since their animation lineup is much better (Helps that a few of their shows premiered on Disney Channel where it was easier for people to watch and notice before bumping them to their other channel).

ZPC is changing or leaving (Weak)

Forgive my ignorance, but what is ZPC?

I'm alright with most of these alterations, except Descendents. How can you cut the VILLAINS from a Halloween parade? There can't be any truth to this.

I mean, they already cut most of the villain meet n' greets and the rubes still come, why not?

The Boo-to-You parade is one of my favorite things at WDW. The party itself could use some changes year to year, specifically more villains! No Descendants please!!!

All what Disney seems to care about is advertising these days. The new "Mickey" ride will use the 2013 Disney Channel design, despite EVERYONE on Earth knowing who Mickey is. Disney, your guests aren't stupid.

The Disney Channel is failing, and they're scared.

• hoedown scene to get Judy Hopps from Zootopia in her farmer outfit (Eh, Lets say medium)
• Goofy's Candy co doesn't return and is still WIR themed (STRONG)
• Descendants replace Villans (Likley)
• Other minor BTY stuff: Budget Cuts GLORE!, Grave diggers may move down to 4 or 5, New Outfits for Mickey and Minnie

I suppose we'll know in a couple months!

The Descendants rumor sounds like a done deal.

They should overhaul the network, like they did in 1997

 

[drizgirl]

So if they take all the traditional villains out of the parade, maybe they could put them all in the castle somewhere for a dessert party and you could meet them for an additional $100/head.

Oh, wait............

I still don't get how Tokyo gets basically a new Halloween AND Christmas parade (in a country where neither are a major holiday) every year, while Florida's Halloween and Christmas parades are a mish mash of floats with some of them being several decades old. Unacceptable. Period.

Reason is simple people keep buying tickets no matter what Disney does. If enough of said NO im spending my money elsewhere things would change

We'll call that the "Chapek Effect".

I hope this guy gets fired soon.... I can't stand him. In today's world, no company can afford another Pressler.
