Re: Fantasyland Expansion...

I haven't had a chance to get through the 27 or so pages in this thread, so I'll just post my quick thoughts and hope they're not a repeat. Isn't it about time for a Mary Poppins E-Ticket dark ride?? The movie and stage show continue to be hugely popular, something I think Disney underestimates. The...

Re: Considering Tokyo trip - suggestions?

That's a relief! I'll add it to my list to call the credit card companies before we leave. Off to collect some more questions and find video of Pooh's Hunny Hunt...

By the way,did you go anywhere besides Disney? We were considering a side trip to Kyoto in addition to seeing Tokyo.

Re: The People mover is coming back!

Love to hear the name change! If only it did signal a return of the Peoplemover in Disneyland...

And yes, I sure would like to see a return of the original Epcot too...

Re: Considering Tokyo trip - suggestions?

^A trip report would be super exciting. I'm hoping to go in early May, just after Children's Day (May 5th).

A quick question. Were you able to use your American credit cards? Domo arigato!

Oooh, that new parade looks fabulous. Has anyone heard when it starts (besides the general 2011)?

Re: The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

Interesting...no, I didn't get the trailer before Toy Story. It looks like they're following up pretty well (Disney should have stuck with the series, Caspian didn't even make a great book). I was surprised to see the White Witch, Peter and Susan in the trailer, though. I certainly don't recall them...

Then and Now Pins

Ok folks, quick rage here. Has anyone seen the 'Then and Now' pins at disneystore.com? They're so awful!! These are spinner type pins with things like Monster's Laugh Floor or Pooh on one side and Timekeeper or Toady on the other. Each one makes me long for the return of the old ride (ahem, Mission ...

Re: Disney Recipes

Thanks, disneylizzie! I wonder why they put soda water into the syrup. It couldn't come out fizzy after boiling...guess I'll just have to try it myself.

Pin Trading in Tokyo?

Just a check for an upcoming (hopefully!) trip to Tokyo Disneyland. Is there pin trading in the Tokyo parks? If so, I'll definitely want to pack some American pins!

Re: Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair

Did anyone else see the trailer for Tangled at Toy Story 3 (two Potato Head thumbs way up, by the way)? I was disappointed to say the least. Looked like a Dreamworks film to me, way too modern for a traditional Disney fairy tale. On the other hand, I wasn't thrilled with the Princess and the Frog tr...

Re: Halloween Time

Halloween Screams is only going to be available to those who pay extra for the party?? That's just wrong! As Al Lutz said, the only way to conquer this one is to boycott (easy for me to say since I won't be there during Halloweentime anyhow ;) ). Still, that would be a great way to bring back the fi...
