    1900 Park Fare Reopening April 10

    I was wondering if they even remember they had this space? Maybe a manager walked by and realized, "opps, forgot to unlock the door!"

    Shiki Sai - Fireworks Viewing

    From what I remember from when it was Tokyo Dining, the baloney sat a few feet below the restaurant floor. So the view is slightly over the heads of the crowd on the balcony. But we usually dined before or after, and watched from the balcony.

    Dining Plan Newbie- help

    You can add the DDP or QSDP to a DVC Rental. The DVC owner has to add the DP for you. Whatever agency handled your rental should be able to arrange that. Everyone on the reservation would need to be on the DDP, ... its and all or nothing thing.

    It's only time before the Caesar and "All Dressed" follow.

    Is There Really Good Pizza in Disney?

    Sure. And in the context of the question, and the information the OP provided, I said there are no really good pizzas available at WDW. If someone said they love Pizza Planet at DLR, I would tell them to they'll love Pizza Rizzo's. But this is a discussion forum, open for input on open-ended...

    Is There Really Good Pizza in Disney?

    And yet there are people who grew up on the latter and that's the pizza they want and consider "good" pizza. De gustibus non disputandum est. I remember vintner giving a tour and declaring a good wine is whatever wine the drinker likes, and he is right. But his stainless-steel aged wine was...

    Is There Really Good Pizza in Disney?

    Tastes are subjective, and heavily nostalgic. I agree there is no "really good" pizza at WDW, but someone can find something to get their fix. Florida is making strides, and of course you can find some really good pizza within the 65K sq. mi. state, but it's few and far between. For generations...

    Mando & Grogu Movie is official

    People take it all too seriously. I was 5 when I saw Star Wars* in 1977, in 70mm and on the largest screen in my state, and I napped through 20 minutes of it. Went through, and relished, the prime '77-'83 Star Wars mania, suffered through the Holiday Special like every other '70s boy, and...

    Mando & Grogu Movie is official

    But Solo wasn't a "hit", even earning $400M worldwide, it still lost ~$100M. Ep. 8 and 9, Rogue One each made $1B+ each. And I just don't see that box office is there anymore, not when people can get their Star Wars fix on Disney+. I have no crystal ball, but this just seems to be Disney...

    Mando & Grogu Movie is official

    I'm not sure this is going to be a major box office return to form. Will the public line up at the box office for what many may perceive as a 2-hour special episode. I don't see much headroom to scale up from TV to film.

    Getting from Wilderness Lodge to International Gateway

    Traveling to DHS and walking, boating or skyliner are all options (assuming you can get to HS early enough). The downside with the skyliner is you'll have to wait in line with everyone from AOA, Pop, and CBR headed to Epcot when you transfer at CBR. If you do Uber, your only option is to ride...

    Beauty And The Beast The Enchanted Christmas

    The direct-top-video market was getting hot. Disney was making several direct-to-video sequels, but with setting for this one had to be during the timeframe of the first filmto include both Belle and the Beast in the story. Disney opened up animation studios in Canada just to produce video...

    Any resorts still serve chilli in a bread bowl?

    Columbia Harbour House was the OG bread bowl location for WDW, serving clam chowder in the bread bowl for a couple of decades but the only time I've seen it in recent years was their Haunted Mansion themed version in 2021.

    Anyone every have any luck requesting a free upgrade at a Disney resort?

    We were Pixie dusted to water view at the YC because it was close to our requested, but unavailable, room. I've never heard of requesting an upgrade working. Generally they upgrade for their own reasons and make it seem like it's just to be nice. They might ask about special occasions, like...

    Soarin’ Over California Returning to Epcot Until Feb 27, 2024!

    I like how Soaring Over California is real footage and very tangible. Where as Soaring Around the World relies heavily on visual FX, digital animals, etc.; maybe half of what we see is real.

    How come Billy Joel never did voiceovers for Disney movies again?

    Billy Joel was a massive music megastar long before The Bridge or Oliver and Co. In 1985. he released a 21-song double Greatest Hits album. Some hits... 1973 - "Piano Man" 1976 - "New York State of Mind" 1977 - "Just the Way You Are", "Movin' Out", "Only the Good Die Young", "She's Always a...
