Does Early Entry start on Oct 1 and continue for the foreseeable future? Is HS included? Thanks.
Good grief. They are freakin Cinderella paintings in front of Cinderella Castle. How dare they hang Cinderella tapestries by her Castle!Looks like someone hung their homemade quilt.
And it's yet another item that isn't WDW specific.
I don't understand how so much of the 50th stuff can be so lackluster. It's just comically bad.
And that's fine. I just don't think they look all that nice, and I love me some Mary Blair as much as the next person, but we're celebrating WDW's 50th, not Cinderella's. If those banners had concept art of the Magic Kingdom from the '60s, that would make a lot more sense in my opinion.Good grief. They are freakin Cinderella paintings in front of Cinderella Castle.

I hope all the whiners here stay at home the next 18 months. Is everything perfect? No. Neither was the Castle Cake from the WDW golden age.
The response to the 50th is comically toxic around here. Everything is awful, apparently.
I actually like these. Now I will go dine on Chef Boyardee.
What did the giant pink birthday cake have do with WDW?And that's fine.

I'm sorry, but compared to other parks's milestone celebrations, I find a lot of this disappointing. And I don't think it's unreasonable to think a 50 anniversary celebration should be about the thing that's 50 years old.
Because cake is a very common thing at milestone events...? How does a giant birthday cake NOT fit into a 25th birthday celebration for WDW?What did the giant pink birthday cake have do with WDW?
Cake has nothing to do with WDW. It is something used for birthdays.Because cake is a very common thing at milestone events...? How does a giant birthday cake NOT fit into a 25th birthday celebration for WDW?
The castle cake was more ambitious, but there’s nothing inherently more celebratory about cake when compared to other festive decor like the banners, pennants, gilding, and bunting we’re getting. The cake also has literally nothing more to do with WDW’s history than the 50th medallion.Because cake is a very common thing at milestone events...?

Stay tuned for Season 2 of "Disney's 50th Chopped". Is the 50th cake grand enough? Will the fondant be sweet enough? What will the proper colors be? Will the cake stand adequately support the cake for Disney's great 50th Anniversary without appearing unsightly? How will the "judges" review the offerings? Watch the next episode to see what or who gets "CHOPPED". Oh wait, maybe we should just have a Throw Down with the Swedish Chef vs. Remy!'![]()
I don't know, have you seen how many special edition cupcakes Disney has put out? It is a running joke on here after all!Cake has nothing to do with WDW. It is something used for birthdays.
So are banners.
And for 50th birthdays and anniversaries, we make everything gold. At least these banners aren’t from Dollar Tree.
Funnily enough, you could argue it's now become part of the resort's history because it was so... memorable and opinions are still so strong about it.The castle cake was more ambitious, but there’s nothing inherently more celebratory about cake when compared to other festive decor like the banners, pennants, gilding, and bunting we’re getting.

Which is why I prefer that we don't do the equivalent of dressing it up like a clown (pukey pink cake).How is celebrating Cinderella/Cinderella's castle not a part of the 50th? The castle is the one of the most memorable icons there is of Magic Kingdom!
