Why can't they use a darker dye in the Echo Lake water to hide the infrastructure?

I'm not immensely familiar with how pond dyes work, but chances are a darker color would just mean using more of the same dye, which could potentially cause issues with animals. It's safe when used as directed, but I'm not sure about going over that. Might be an issue with whatever irrigation system they have in there as well, dunno.

Could also just be cost savings.

So I wonder if they will be adding more to TSL. Because it seems a bit weak for all of the hype.

2018 Holiday Decorations at Disney's Hollywood Studios

I'm usually the anti-nostalgiac, but the Echo Lake decorations stir a nostalgic... what do you call them?? Oh, yes, feeling. They're the kind of Christmas decorations from my childhood, which, though was in the 60s and 70s, the decorations we had were purchased in the 50s and put away every year and brought back out for decades following.

Now all DHS needs is an aluminum silver tinsel tree with a spotlight on it with a four color wheel rotating in front of it.

OK, the poodles are great! Not a fan of poodles but they are PERFECT for Hollywood Studios. Kudos to the designer.

Kudos also for the dinosaur antlers. Well done.

 

[DisneyGigi]

That whole poodle thing I know somebody had when I was little! It clicked a major memory off in my head lol. Can’t wait to see it all in a couple of weeks.

Does anybody know if Toy Story Land has a Christmas music loop? Do you know @wdwmagic ?

As far as I know just on Alien Saucers

DHS is now proportionally the park with the most decorations by acres of park.

Hollywood Blvd, Sunset, Echo Lake, Grand Ave, TSL are all decorated.

Only area missing is Animation Courtyard

They have a small tree lighting ceremony for this year, I don't know if this is new or not. Yet again another WIN for DHS Christmas!!

They did this last year.

Should look better when the echo lake stuff is fully installed.

Osborne Lights had to die in order for DHS to become a well-decorated park for 'the holidays.'

Lasers for Sunset Seasons Greetings are AMAZING!!!

They are also doing the vignettes more often this year. There's less than a min between each one instead of the 15, I think, from last year. Overall still a great addition!

Some more pictures of this:

It really does look like the concept art they put out a while back.

As we knew, there is no high level fireworks in JBJB. Well done Disney, absolute travesty. Why is it always one step forward and 500 steps back?

No BAM! from high pyro but there is some high pyro. I will say that so far they brought the low pyro!

Jingle Bell Jingle BAD was very boring

Here's a video of Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! Showing the pyro situation


Also, Sunset Seasons Greetings with the new lasers
