Does this fake window look as bad in person?

Isn't that in Tokyo? Or was that added to DL this year?

@Rich T your dreams may be slowly coming true.

No, it looks fine in person. TDL's HMH is better than ours in almost every conceivable way, although they have a headstart by having a clone of WDW's Mansion maintained at impeccable standards.

Martin just uploaded a tribute to Epcot's France pavilion and besides being a great look at its history, it also made me think about how New Orleans Square was a kind of precursor to World Showcase (and I think from a design standpoint, France is just as nice). It's the kind of thing Disney used to do best. Building romanticized depictions of historical places and ideas, instead of the giant Vegas/shopping mall models*. It's what DCA is largely lacking and why it doesn't feel very Disney at times. If only we had gotten WestCOT instead...
*Unfortunately, instead of adding rides and charming diversions over time, Disney added booze booths and character meet and greets which took away from the focus of the various countries IMO.

BTW, does anyone know if it’s true that Tokyo’s HMH decorations were made for WDW, but TDO, last minute, decided that holiday overlays weren’t worth it and OLC bought the decorations?

For as much as we like to dump on Orlando's management- if this is a true story, then they deserve all the praise in the world.

Hahah. It was you though right? That wanted more Humphrey in Grizzly Peak?

Absolutely! I would completely retheme the rapids to Brownstone Park with Humphrey and crew, Ranger Woodlore and a very distraught camper Donald. Now, *that’s* an overlay!

I think it's hysterical that WDI copied some fan art posted to Twitter for the Humphry graphic in one of the huts.

Lol really?
Lol. Welp. I’d say the copied background design makes it more than clear. It is their character though. If i were the artist I wouldn’t have even brought it up. To me it would be cooler to go to DCA and see my copied work (and show fam/ friends) than to get 2 minutes of fame and see how fast they switch out the design.

I'm not bothered that the Snow White ride doesn't have an happy ending scene, but it's missing some of the extra animation in the Tokyo and Paris versions. The mine cart that runs and "crashes" towards you, the skeletons that shake and swing out to your car* in Paris, or its dunegon's extra fountains. The California version seems more cramped despite hitting all the same beats. Are the bats in the woods in Paris too? I forget.
*which is amazing. So classic pre-Disney dark ride
