>>70344683
Disneyland is not located in Florida, therefore it is better due to the weather not being dog shit.
suck my dick, choke on it
>>
>>70345080
I've only ever gone in April, and the weather's been nice. I went last April and it was actually pretty cool out the first few days. Even then the highest it got the whole week was in the 80s.

Favorite park is Epcot but favorite ride is Splash Mountain. Restaurant is probably the Boma buffet at Animal Kingdom Lodge. Don't have a favorite character or favorite memory really.

You're lucky. I'd love to be able to go to Disney once or twice a year.

But yeah, I can see how going so often would get boring. I think one of the reasons Disney is enjoyable is because most people don't get to go often.

Has anyone used one of the bands? I'm curious if they really make the experience that much smoother, or, if you know what you're doing, you're better off on your own.

>>
>>70347708
Hmm, the belly dancer at World Showcase Moracco.
>>
>>70347630
I did on my trip last December. Pretty good experience, but nothing game-breaking. It does save you some time as it works as a ticket+room key+credit card,, particularly if you are on a dining plan.
>>
>>70347630
I used the cards. They worked just like the bands, but they were cards.
>>
>>70347089
Honestly I could care less. I never really cared about Maelstrom that much and I kinda knew that Disney would make something Frozen-related in the Norway pavilion before they announced it
>>
>>70347630
If you're just visiting the park for the day, you're better on your own. If you're visiting one of their resorts as a guest, you get one anyway. It's your hotel key and park tickets and other shit combined into one little band. I got one for free during my internship. I might wear it when I go to Disneyland and bang it on the normal turnstyles just to be cheeky.

So apparently Hollywood Studios is going to get yet another rename sometime soon.
>>
>>70348200

I've never been. I'm planning to go with some friends some day. How much money should we save up and how much time should I plan off?

>>70344148
I seriously want to go to one at least once!
>>
>no Frozen-themed park in Canada
>>
>>70348224
to be fair all of the studio portions of the park have been ripped out. Though I still think that the park will still retain the Hollywood theme
>>
>>70348200
rumor is Disney Hollywood Adventure. Would kinda match DCA, and they haven't been even pretended to be a studio in quite a while.
>>
>>70348290

>>70348245
Other anons say it's a waste of money, but I found this guidebook to be a convenient source of info and tips. They update it every year.
>>
>>70348276
They're not that expensive if you go alone, or spend wisely.

I've been able to go three times in my life (all with family, though.)
>>
>>70348245
4-5 days are probably enough. Tickets for 4-5 days are like $330 per person, and a value resort is usually 120~ per night.
>>
I remember Disney was going to re-theme Rock N Roller Coaster but they scrapped it
>>
>>70348245
I typically take a week off (though you only need a minimum of 4 days to do all 4 parks).

You can buy tickets for admission to all four parks. They're around $300-ish. Resorts and such are extra, and expensive, too. You'll also need money for food, souvenirs, etc.

Overall, I'd save around $2000-3000 dollars. With a bunch of friends/family pitching in, it's not that bad.

Hey, I happen to like zoos, so I really enjoyed the day I spent at AK. It's Hollywood Studios that only had one thing going for it for me (Tower of Terror).

I recommend getting a park hopper pass so you can do the morning at AK and the night at HS.

I went to Disney Land once in Anaheim when I was 8.

What are the best parts about Hong Kong Disneyland?
>>
I live in Orlando and have an Annual Pass, I got as often as I can. It's really pleasant just being able to go for a couple hours and not feel like you have to spend the entire day their to get your money's worth. Staying just a bit also means I don't have to buy super expensive food. It's pretty nice.

The more I go, the more I appreciate Epcot, it's just so chill and relaxed. You can do a lot without waiting in lines.

American Adventure doesn't have any singing animatronics. There's songs, but they're all video montages. Different tones too, American Adventure being "The History of the Country in less than 40 minutes", America Sings being more like "Country Bear Jamboree with multiple American musical genres".

Also, gonna fix your problem with the magic of YouTube.

I don't know what it's really called. My family always call it 'Cut Your Heart Out Cafe' because of an incident with my great aunt (RIP) on one of our trips. It's the one right before you enter Tomorrowland from Main Street. At Christmas time, it's beautiful. I'm also partial to the soup bowls by Pirates.

Too many, but here's a recent one. Went last January on the last day they had the Christmas decorations out. Me and a friend both went dressed as Spider-man, because he's our favorite extended Disney character. Had a great time, took alot of pics with folks, almost got kicked out because of it (worth it).
Anyways, we were in line for Buzz Lightyear, and these kids just lit up when they saw us. Jumping up and down, asking us tons of questions, etc. One kid would not let go of my hand. Their parents commented that they were amazed how open they were with us. Usually, they are very shy, reserved, and don't talk to anyone. Feels good to have that kind of impact, and its why I wear the suit.
Hey, Disney, now that Spidey is part of the MCU, you sound like you need a Spidey around. I work for churros and pretzels.

You know that little corridor of buildings between Grizzly Peak and Paradise Pier right by Mermaid? That's meant to be a bit of San Francisco. If you can add a stretch of San Fransokyo-ness that and the Pacific Wharf, might be able to do something BH6-y.

Only been to Disney parks like 3 times during various family vacations, live way up North so it's not easy/cheap to just go. The upside is that when we did go we went all out with staying at the resorts for like 8 days or something, it was great. Last time I was in Disney World was way back in 2001 and I had just gone through a big growth spurt. I remember Space Mountain being utterly terrifying because I couldn't quite fit my legs completely under the bar and there was no seatbelt. I felt like I was going to fly out at any moment. I'm sure it wasn't nearly as bad as I'm remembering.

Two of my favorite memories were both at the Tower of Terror though. The first time we ever went I was only like 8 and was terrified of heights. We went through the line and went up the first elevator where they put on a little show and were about to get into the car and I freaked out and couldn't get on. My mom was going to go with me back down the the exit but I told her I'd be fine and she should go. One of the staff running it took me to a normal elevator for staff and stayed in-character the entire way down. It was spooky as hell at the time but in hindsight was really cool.

Then a few years later I got over it and got on the ride and it broke down right before it was supposed to do the drop. They had to turn all the lights on and escort us to service exits and see all the mirrors and tracks that the cars run along. It was really cool to see the innards of the ride like that.

I didn't actually have any trouble getting in there. I know someone who knew someone who had a pass, so they let him use it.

Is it worth the $10k to get in? If you live in Anaheim and you make well over 100k a year, maybe, but otherwise probably not.

The food in there was delicious, though, if a bit too...old fashioned and expensive.

If you get invited, go. Otherwise, probably not worth it.

Being a kid at Epcot - it felt so futuristic at the time. Perhaps because I'm older and the park is older, I feel it's lost much of that futurism feel.

So I just found out about the Easter Egg thingy going on at Disney World. Can someone explain to me what this thing is about and how it works?
>>
>>70373023
I disagree. Epcot still feels futuristic to me, and that's why I love it. Them explaining how to grow stuff via hydroponics and the advances they're making in the agriculture field, the new Test Track subtly teaching kids about aerodynamics and future car design while they build their cars in the queue, at least one of the two innovations buildings always have a new interactive displays explaining recent technology. And the Flower and Garden Festival last year explained how they transplanted plants and discussed the cool sensor they have to water the plants.

It doesn't feel like the "In the year 2100 we will all have flying cars" feel, but it still is futuristic. I prefer this version much more.

I've never been to disneyland. Growing up with wdw being an 8 hour drive away doesn't really make me want to get on a plane for dland especially when it doesn't have as much of a "disney bubble" feeling like world does.

No harm in a little bias in this case. I'm pretty guilty of that myself, seeing I live about an hour or so away from DL myself. At the same time, though, I wouldn't mind seeing what the other parks have to offer. The closest I've been to another was when I passed over HK Disneyland while traveling to Malaysia a few years back.

You do have me curious, though. What do you mean by 'disney bubble'?

I see what you mean. Honestly, I keep forgetting about everything that's surrounding the resort...and keeping it from expanding. For some reason, once I step foot onto Main Street, it just seems so out of mind.

I wish I could say the same for California Adventure, though. Seeing the Convention Center literally across the street from California Screamin' is a bit of a wake-up call.

>>70378230
The only part of Disneyland that was originally supposed to be Disney-related was Fantasyland.
>>
>>70377953

The disparity of poverty and wealth of Anaheim around the hub of Disneyland is hilariously abrupt. Traveling north on Harbor or east on Ball past the main park unfolds into empty or abandoned businesses and a sharp decline in the quality of the care for the streets.

Katella is the only nicely maintained front and it's absolutely packed with restaurants and hotels. You can really feel the limited economy of space the resort has by how jammed together everything is.

It's really funny, my childhood memories regarding Disneyland was the excitement of seeing the lumber mill on Ball since that meant we were close to Disneyland. I can't imagine that 'Disney Bubble' of Florida but I guess it makes sense given there's more land there to create that atmosphere.

I went to my first Passholder event the beginning of this month. It was to celebrate so many years of Indiana Jones being open.
They had a slightly themed live band, a guy standing on a circus ball all night, and some Q&A thing I didn't go to.
It was fucking amazing. Even though the only lands open were Adventure, New Orleans Square, and Frontierland the place was practically empty. The only ride with anything that could even be considered a line was Indiana Jones.

Best thing though. I got on the very last Jungle Cruise boat. The guide had the boat up to full speed and never took a breath "there'sarefirstsignofdangernowovertherearesometigersthoseelephantshavetheirtrunkson"

Totally going next time they have another event.

This week we're going to give you a very special look at the early development of UNIVERSAL'S ISLANDS OF ADVENTURE park, back when it was still known as "PROJECT X".

Long before The Incredible Hulk coaster, a concept was developed for a SILVER SURFER COASTER, with some of its main features being a CHROME TRACK and PROJECTION DOME FINALE featuring a climactic showdown with Galactus!

The 2nd attraction in our unofficial look into the early development of UNIVERSAL'S ISLANDS OF ADVENTURE theme park is an incredible concept for an X-MEN ATTRACTION.

Utilizing a moving theatre, 3D sound, and a colossal 3D dome projection screen, guests would be immersed in Professor X's CEREBRO CHAMBER as they embark on a thrilling journey alongside the X-MEN!

The 80s were full of "This is Not For Kids" movies in the "Kids Movies" section of the video rental store. Darby O'Gill is straight up horror and we are all marked by that banshee scream.
I imagine one day that the ghost coach is going to roll up outside my door and the banshee is going to scream at me until I get on. Then I'll have to listen to some smug-as-shit Leprechaun talk for the entire ride, and maybe, who knows - he'll kick my ass out for a laugh.

I worked at the park about ten years ago, specifically on the World Famous Jungle Cruise in Land, and on the steam trains. Anyone that works there now able to tell me if it's still a great place to work? I'm considering moving back to SoCal, I follow their job listings on Twitter, and I'm thinking about trying to get back into the park.

I figure, a table service position would pretty much be the best job in the world, since you'll be receiving damn good tips on top of the hourly pay and all the other benefits.

Same. I live in Florida, near Orlando. And I think we've become anesthetized by the experience, the magic become nullify once we seen the wonder beyond the illusion.

You know, when you listen to Walt describe what's going on in the Pirates ride it's slightly disconcerting. You have this kind, fatherly voice describing ransacking and slavery.
>>
>>70407504
Well that's what pirates did. Did you expect him to bullshit it?
>>
>>70409195
No of course not, but you don't really think about it too deeply when you're on the ride. However the way Walt lays it out so clearly you suddenly stop and think to yourself, 'wow, it's like riding through a recreation of the Rape of Nanking'.

I'm not complaining, it's fantasy and all that but even so, I'd rather not think too hard on the subject.

Fuck Tim Burton and fuck Disneyland for allowing this shit to go up way too early. It should at least go up by the end of September/beginning of October.

Also, can any anons tell me what the Park Greeter role is like over in DL? Kinda don't know if I lucked out getting this role or what.
>>
So apparently the reason why the Star Tours upgrade took a while to make was because George Lucas hated working with Michael Eisner
>>
>>70410568

Was someone finally willing and able to stand up to George and say 'no' to him?

Regardless, I've only been on the revamped ride once, and I don't think I ever will again. It feels like a videogame, and looks like one, too. What was nice about the first one was that it looked real. The new one, by comparison, looks totally fake.
>>
>>70410685
Hey at least Star Tours actually feels like a Star Wars ride
>>
>>70410110
That's how it goes. Everyone wants to celebrate the big name holidays sooner and sooner. Why else would you explain the stores breaking out the X-mas decorations in September. It's ridiculous.

>>70411282

Because Nightmare Before Christmas is a Halloween AND Christmas movie.

Actually, I was speaking in more of a general, non-DL related sense. My fault for not being entirely clear.
>>
>>70411609

Wait, they do up Main Street and Small World too?

Barring NBC, DL is pretty good about keeping the holidays in check. X-Mas decor doesn't usually go up until after Halloween has passed.

I'm still on the fence. Can't help but admit that I like the Geonosis sequence.
>>
>>70411848
It's still just a rumor, but it's a pretty convincing one.

There's a big, fake looking wall in the HM attic in the exact spot where Hatbox Ghost was kept when the ride first opened. Later on the Disney Park Blog, they made a post teasing that the Mansion would be getting another ghost in the attic and were purposely coy when everyone immediately assumed it was HBG.

That plus the fact that it's the 6th Anniversary, making it the perfect time to put him back in the ride, makes for a pretty convincing argument.
>>

I'm guessing you meant 60th?

Also, I think Disney officially announced he would be coming back.

From my memory, I've only been on it twice: Once in 2005, and again in 2014. I don't recall any differences, though my memory of the 2005 version is very vague, as I was young.

When was it revamped?
>>
>>70416782
46th.
>>
>>70416882
2011. They added a whole bunch of shit set inbetween episodes 3 and 4, and each ride is pretty much a random pull from a bunch of scenes.

>>70417191
Ah. Well, I don't remember the original that well at all, so I guess it doesn't really matter to me.
>>
>>70417191
is the queue still the same?
>>
>>70417817
It uses the same layout before but now the G2 Droids are now doing security and much like the original version, they are more interested in talking to the guests rather than doing their job
>>
>>70417817
It's still the witty banter between R2-D2 and C-3PO, but the dialogue has been changed up a bit. Apparently, Threepio doesn't think too highly of the Gungans. In the second half, the droids in the back make several comments about the increased security in recent times.

Do it man, do it.
The food is all right, beats most anything else in the park and the prices aren't really that bad by Disney standards.
Everyone should eat there at least once if only to drink the lemonaid and sit at the edge listening to the "crickets" and waving at the people on pirates.
Wait for a table near the ride.

I'll admit I haven't had the fried chicken but the couple times I've eaten there the food was just lackluster. Although if the band is playing it's got good atmosphere.
The mickey beignets are very disappointing though.

I usually end up at Carnation Cafe. There's just something really nice about sitting down and having your food brought to you. Plus if you can time things right it's a good place to watch the parade, if you've seen it multiple times before and don't care about not being right up front.
>>
>>70419249

Carnation is great, but it's SO expensive. And because it's a proper restaurant, you have to figure a tip into the cost, too.

Man...it would be great to work there. You'd practically be swimming in cash.

It's not that much more expensive than anywhere else in the park. Unless you're there with a big family, then yeah the little bit extra for everything would add up.

Only very loosely related, but whatever. I made a Lego model here that needs votes: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/95531

The real-life steam trains on which this is based have a Disney connection. The engineering company that made them was run by a personal friend of Walt Disney who shared his passion for old-timey trains. Also, Ward Kimball, original Disney artist and another personal friend of Walt Disney and train buff, did the colors and paintings on the engines.

This sort of makes the steam rail operation at the Golden Spike National Historic Site in Utah an unofficial, secret Disney railroad.
