Dateline Disneyland

I wonder if they actually did away with them or if it is one of those supply shortages as they change over to a new design? I can't picture them not trying to slap their brand on every single surface they can find.

If it amounts to a significant savings, I can see them sticking with the generic service items.

If it is about savings, I wonder if they really are there? Unlike smaller scale operations, they order the paper goods in such massive quatities that they may not have a noticeable difference.

Well, I wonder if Coke provides cups when you buy their product in such massive quantities? That right there could add up quickly if Disney didn't have to purchase cups.

that is where the cups come from, if CCE just gives them cups.... then it is a no-brainer. but the worlds largest purchaser of coke(?) should be able to ask CCE to give them the cups with DParks on it ...

Speaking of beverages, I'm not sure if they do this in other parts of the park (they do have a cart at space) as well but they were sending a vendor wearing an old school drinks basket (with modern back support) through the waiting area at radiator springs racers to sell beverages. I almost wonder if they have started designing more outdoor queues so that guests get hot and make impluse buys during the summers.

not in orlando... they wanna sell drinks, not send park guests to the hospital

Latest update from Micechat: Buena Vista Street gets cleaned up as Halloween Time haunts Disneyland.

And if Wizzard doesn't like it then he can post these himself.

I always shoot the messenger, as they are the first line.

They sure love to use the muppet vision theater for promos too.

I know not many tend to go to MVT very much which is sad because I love the Muppets but they should use the other soundstages around there. Get rid of that stupid Dancing with Disney event and move the stuff in there.

You always shoot the messenger ?? How many times have you shot yourself ???? HA!!!! I KILL ME!!!!!!!!!!!! Here Lucky!!

[Wizzard419]

Well, they would have to build a new 4D theater if they had to do that. The other reason people don't go is probably because it's not only dated but also clearly not made for this park.

I love the decorations and wish WDW would go all out like Disneyland. Halloween carnival... awesome.

[Wizzard419]

The international parks put even DLR to shame, they were the first to have attractions for the holiday that ran all day long as opposed to special events.

Ok, so I checked in today and saw HMH's new stuff (they really like to use the reflective glass with the gingerbread house now). All the halloween crap is up and you can also see them building the christmas tree backstage. I am not sure if they were building the main one or if they were doing another one but this one appears to have red fruit like things on it and a gold sash thing (they are still putting decorations on it though).

Oh and ghost galaxy has the green lights again.

Also, at least one of the signals for the red car is functioning again.
