New 'celebratory' clothing for Mickey & the Gang to wear in the Park ( well, maybe....)
Since you mentioned that, a thing I loved about Disneyland Paris's 25th Anniversary was that they not only have celebratory clothing for Mickey & Friends. But for almost every single Disney character were spotted wearing celebratory clothing. Usually that's something Tokyo Disneyland would do.

We do know from insiders that HEA was supposed to b a temporary show until the 50th. Then, when it showed that is was very well received, the inside scoop was Disney considering only tinkering with HEA to include a 50th nod.

Now, raccoons are nesting in the fireworks pad.


Id be happy with a borrowed parade and HEA 50th nod. Just send MSEP back or PTN. Geeze DL doesn’t need both of them. Let WDW have one of them for its 50th.

This is the one that bums me out the most. If Disney isn't going to enhance classic attractions like Peter Pan's Flight or the Jungle Cruise for the 50th, then they likely never will.

There were already plans to make changes to the Jungle Cruise in conjunction with the Jungle Cruise movie.

Who knows if they will still follow through with that, but it seems like somewhere they'd be willing to spend a little money for marketing purposes.

Or retheme Splash.... in a couple years.

What are the chances of the Philharmagic revamp making the cut? They can market it as ‘new’ in a way that you couldn’t for a Peter Pan or Big Thunder refurb, and with it being in five resorts already they’d be setting themselves up for an easy shot in the arm at everything except Shanghai.

I read it as "everything is so uncertain right now that we won't know if something is happening for the 50th until the 50th."

Well, realistically I would think we will get official word what’s going to happen by early Summer at the latest. Hopefully Spring. But if there isn’t large improvements with Covid19 and a vaccine by Spring... We will know the 50th will definitely just be cupcakes.

It'd be nice if the new parade featured an Elliot float as a "tip of the hat" of sorts to the Main Street Electrical Parade.

I hope that we at least get Hatbox Ghost, the Big Thunder finale, and a plussed Jungle Cruise and Peter Pan. At the very least.

Also throw in the Pirate Barker Bird to make a return.

(And the return of the Orange Bird walk around character)
Whatever happened to that Barker Bird, anyhow? I've heard he was in the World of Disney store for a while, I've heard that he was moved to somewhere in the ride, I've heard he's in the archives... which is it?

He is in the archives! They actually included him in a D23 event a few years back.
