    ‘The Muppet Show’ Returns With Disney+ Special Produced By Seth Rogen; Will Serve As Backdoor Pilot

    Not that I'm aware of, but I could ask that of anyone who liked it or anything else since Henson's passing.

    ‘The Muppet Show’ Returns With Disney+ Special Produced By Seth Rogen; Will Serve As Backdoor Pilot

    IMO, Muppets Christmas Carol was awful, as was Muppets Haunted Mansion. They simply weren't funny, the songs were weak, the writing was terrible,......the only redeeming things were how well it tied in the Disney World ride elements.

    ‘The Muppet Show’ Returns With Disney+ Special Produced By Seth Rogen; Will Serve As Backdoor Pilot

    As much as I do love the Muppets, I have to give this idea a hard NO. The Muppets lost everything they were when Jim Henson died. Yes, the company has tried to go on with them, but none of the films, shows, etc.....have been even slightly entertaining. Henson had a very special wit, the previous...

    MK Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    I like to think I stay open-minded when it comes to Disney re-doing some of their attractions. But for me, the first major strike was when they decided to go with a Princess and Frog theme. It certainly isn't one of their most beloved films, and for me, it isn't even one I mildly enjoyed. So...

    EPCOT Epcot Forever to debut as interim show before full Reflections of Earth replacement

    If "Epcot Forever" is meant to merely be a filler for the true replacement, then I understand why it's a rather disappointing show. Still, you'd think Disney would have put a little more imagination into it. All that EF is, is a paint-by-numbers fireworks show with some callback voiceover...

    News WDW Resorts to add fees for parking

    As much as I love Disney, I sincerely hope this ridiculously stupid parking fee change bites them hard. It's basically forcing people like me to have to fly down and make use of their Magical Express service and nothing else simply to save money. Perhaps I shouldn't say that too loud, though, as...

    EPCOT Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

    Yes, I saw the original version prior to the Ellen garbage. The original version, sure it was boring, but actually stayed true to the ideal of Epcot. The garbage refurbishment that brought in Ellen couldn't have been further from that idea of teaching and education.

    Never Been There

    I've never done the Enchanted Tiki Room, and since none of these existed the last time I was there: Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Little Mermaid, Test Track 2.0, Soarin' Around the World (I HAVE been on the original Soarin many times).

    What similar ride should be in the other parks?

    We all know that there are certain types of rides that are basically copied - though different in theme - from one park to the next (or even tripled up in the same park). I'm primarily referring to what I call the "kiddie spinner" ride such as Dumbo, Flying Carpets, and Astro Orbiter......which...

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner

    I agree. It is a shame, though, that the only real way to get to Animal Kingdom is by bus (or drive yourself). Linking it to the Disney Skyline would be more expensive, but ultimately worth it.

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner

    Given the funny layout, I wonder how any possible future expansion could happen. I would have figured it to operate in some kind of circular pattern or wheel-n-spoke.

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    In theory, this is going to be really good for Disney and it is a good idea, but we can pretty much expect this to be THE place now in WDW and its cost-per-night will be astronomical.

    News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

    So basically the WDW Railroad track will stay put and it will simply go under/through the building for Tron. Ok. At the very least, though, if they're not getting rid of the Speedway (which they should do) but merely modifying the track layout, they should also adjust the theme to be more...

    EPCOT Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

    UoE was way too dated, tired, and boring an attraction that really never worked very well.
