News Sleeping Beauty's Castle to be refurbished

[Stevek]

I love Christmas, so I actually would be interested in looking at the different decorations at the hotels if I were to go during that time.

Now that I’m thinking about it, I think the Disney bubble in Orlando doesn’t appeal to me partly because of my experience growing up in Los Angeles and the other part being my actual interests, which is a given. I did a lot of Disney things growing up, besides Disneyland. All of the Disney movies we saw as children were seen at the El Capitan, I went to a number of Walt Disney Studios events as a child, and sometimes would just be at the actual Studios themselves for no particular reason, wandering around campus, among other things. I’ve gotten a lot of Disney throughout my life, and while I still love and enjoy it, now as an adult, I want to explore more.

I like discovering/exploring and learning new things. When I travel, I don’t like to do the same things over and over again in the same city. So for me, if I were to go to Orlando, Paris, Hong Kong, or Tokyo, I of course would visit the parks, however I would also have to find time to actually explore the surroundings, travel through the cities, get to know the locals, and basically see something else. I enjoy culture, so there’s no way I would travel all the way to these different places, especially the different countries, just for Disney and then leave. I would feel my money would go to waste and I wouldn’t make good use of my time.

I love Disney, but now as an adult, I value other things above it. There’s so much else out there that I want to see.

Maybe it's just the Orlando thing because yes, everywhere else I go I tend to explore as much as possible.

Those were actually some good photos to show for the parks refurbishments. I am glad those Valentines Decorations are leaving. They were awful!

I preferred the Minecraft look.

With how Disney is using the new paint to create even more forced perspective, it may end up looking bigger than Florida's.

Sorry if this has been answered before, but does anyone know when this is scheduled to be completed? I will be at the DLR in the beginning of May and was hoping the castle would be done by then.

Spring is all they say.

Those are definitely the old ones. I wonder if they are just being driven to be tossed out or archived?

 

[JD2000]

We'll start the bids asking $1000. Do we have $1000? Don't miss out of this historic memorabilia!

Hopefully archived... Yes they're damaged but there's likely a few collectors who'd want a piece of the castle.

 

[IMDREW]

Wow, this color is very different than what we're used to. .

 

[TROR]

I’ll wait till the scrims come down but I hope it’s not that bold in the final product

 

[IMDREW]

I went back to look at the concept art again, and I think that color might be final.

Yep!

 

[mickEblu]

Is it just me or do the turrets look shiny and plasticky?

I think they might have gone a little overboard with the Stardust on those roofs

I actually am pretty into it...

 

[Californian Elitist]

The turrets are too shiny and too blue. They don’t seem to match with the other color palettes.

I like the rest of the castle so far though.

Couple weeks in the sun and the color and shininess will tone down.

I don’t like the plastic look though. It’s defintley a different material than what was there previously. Were the turret shingles made of wood before?
