WTF

During Sleeping Beauty, on Aurora's sixteenth birthday, King Hubert mentions to King Stefan that he already built a castle for Aurora and Phillip and that they can move the next day. Stefan gets visibly upset because at that point he still hasn't seen his daughter yet and Hubert was already preparing to send her away.

Disneyland opened in 1955, and the icon of the park and the main entrance for Fantasyland, an area themed to the fairy tales of the studio, was the Sleeping Beauty Castle. This castle served as the main symbol for the Disney studio until it was replaced decades later with the Cinderella Castle, from WDW.

However, although the castle was present in the park as earlier as 1955, Disney wouldn't premiere Sleeping Beauty until 1959. That means that when Sleeping Beauty premiered, there was already a castle built for Aurora and Phillip, just as Hubert wished.

Favorite Disney Parks Attraction Showdown: Round 7/FINALS

Videos and propaganda under the cut!

Haunted Mansion: Disneyland, WDW Magic Kingdom, Tokyo Disneyland

Propaganda:

"The ride system was perfected by Bob Gurr, gay icon. Seriously, any Disney gays and Haunted Mansion gays, thank gay icon, Bob Gurr for giving us an iconic ride vehicle and system. The whole ride is iconic. It inspired modern day horror tropes, gives goth kids a cool ride to enjoy as they pretend not to enjoy their trip with family when they actually do, has that really interesting spider story in the ballroom scene, X Atencio giving us an iconic song, story, script, and voice acting in the Lemme Outta Here ghost and the break down spiel, THE FREAKING STRETCHING ROOM, THE WALLPAPER!!!!!! Hatbox Ghost being an urban legend, with his existence being argued and questioned for years until we finally got a blurry picture confirmation and him coming back years later, ICONIC! Madame Leota and Little Leota! The hitchhiking ghosts!!! GHOST HOST!!!! The freaking conveyor belt at the end of the attraction that you step off to and if your not careful, it's easy to almost fall, accidentally giving one last scare before you leave the ride and makes you realize how clumsy you are? Iconic. "

"This is a ride that I was absolutely terrified of when I was a little kid. I actually have photographic evidence of this (ask for it if you'd like). But, my goodness, this rough start only made me love it all the more as I grew up. This is such a fun and goofy ride despite the morbid theme and occasional eerie bits! It's a duality. The ghosts have such a personality and the Ghost Host is such a charming guide (and I find the fact that he abandons you to go join the swinging wake hilarious, especially because you wander into the attic with Constance when unguided). It's just such a well-crafted ride! There's so much to see and I never get tired of it. The Doombuggy itself is an ingenious way to move people through the ride with such a distinctive design. The Ghost Host raising and lowering the lap bar for you is neat (fun fact, The Phantom in Phantom Manor is a terrible host and doesn't do this for you, probably because he's too busy planning your death. Asshole.). The effects in the ride are so cool and hold up, especially the Pepper's Ghosts effect. The rooms are distinct and eccentric. The Grim Grinning Ghosts song is absolutely delightful, and it's such a nice touch that you can distinguish the vocals of different ghosts you see in the graveyard. I should also just give a shout-out to the soundtrack for the ride as a whole, which wonderfully warps the Grim Grinning Ghosts theme to match the scene you're in. The ride also does such a good job of plunging you straight into the experience with facade of the mansion (I adore the look of the conservatory) and the queue. The tombstones are so funny and I really appreciate the interactive elements they added in the exterior section. And then you get inside the mansion, hear the Ghost Host's narration, and get into the Stretching Room. How can I describe that room other than frightfully fun? So, why Walt Disney World instead of Disneyland? I prefer experiencing the changing portraits on the ride rather than in the queue. I love the library as the setting for the busts that watch you. The music room with the ghost you can only see in shadow playing a version of Grim Grinning Ghosts is captivating. And, my goodness, the staircase room takes my breath away and I love watching the ghostly footsteps on the stairs. It's even going to have the Hatbox Ghost soon (I am not weighing in on the discourse over the potential location for him).

"I love it. I love ghosties. I love the effects. I love women who murder their husbands. I love the jaunty tunes. I love having to stop for 4 minutes not even partway into the ride and having to watch the same things going on for ages. I love a good ghoul ride, man "

"Epic conveyer belt keeps the line moving (though that won't always stop the line from being long)."

Tower of Terror: WDW Hollywood Studios, Paris Walt Disney Studios Park, California Adventure (2004-2017), Tokyo DisneySea

Propaganda:

"you forget how scary it is until you watch the preshow. and then you forget how fun it is until you ride the ride. 10/10 would recommend went on it with my friends twice last time we went."

"WE LOVE HORROR MEDIA REPRESENTATION!!! ONLY PUSSIES TAKE THE STAIRS"

"This ride made me absolutely terrified of elevators for a bit. xD Anyway, the bellhop cast members are hilarious. The hotel that is covered in cobwebs and was clearly abandoned in a rush after a terrible event is so cool. The Rod Sterling Twilight Zone intro is iconic. The basement is an interesting setting for the final part of the queue. The generators, lights, and floor indicator malfunctioning helps build your anticipation. The friggin elevator moving into the hallway and into a new shaft when the electrical ghosts make their appearance and you enter the Twilight Zone is so impressive. The dropping and rising of the elevator is such fun and I love the randomized events they added. I have to say, though, that ventriloquist dummy in the unloading room still makes me uncomfortable."

"Who doesn't love a creepy dark drop narrated by the man, the myth, the legend Rod Serling himself?"

Hey there everyone and welcome to night nineteen of the ninth annual Wreck-it Ralph Pin Post Month!

Tonight we have the DLR/DCA/WDW, Magical Mystery Series 22, Vehicles, Vanellope Von Schweetz, Wreck-it Ralph pin. OE.

This pin was apart of a small release of grab bag mystery pins, with each bag containing one of six Disney vehicle pins. Each of the vehicles are iconic, easy to recognize cars from different Disney and Pixar animated films. Like with all mystery pins, this is a simple single layer pin that was originally packaged in a bag to hide its identity until purchase. This pin itself is of Vanellope's kart, which is easily identifiable from dozens of Disney vehicles.

While there are many choices for vehicles that could join this release, I believe Vanellope's was a very good choice. For one, as I said before, it is easily identifiable with its candy theme and chaotic design that immediately makes it stand out from regular cars. Then of course there is the significant role this kart had in the Wreck-it Ralph movie. It being the symbol of friendship between Vanellope and Ralph, as well as the literal vehicle that brought the end of King Candy's reign. The detail put into this pin is also rather nice for a mystery pin, especially when you consider the amount of different colors used for this pin when compared to others in the same release. Overall, it's a very nice pin that certainly deserved its spot in the release.

Wonderful Things That May or May Not Be Wonderful For years of development, Imagineers couldn't decide whether their new haunted house attraction should be spooky or silly. This was only brought to light when one brave soul asked "Por que no los dos?" and it became so. Not only does this teach us the value of compromise, it also gives us one of Disney's best experiences. Spine tingling visual illusions, an iconic ghost host, an iconic main tune with Grim Grinning Ghosts and nine hundred and ninety nine happy haunts all ready for a swinging wake. And that's just the Disneyland and WDW variations. Disneyland Paris' Phantom Manor has a wild west backdrop, a grim backstory, and Vincent Price. Disneyland Hong Kong's Mystic Manor doesn't have any departed spirits due to cultural customs but it does have a trackless ride system, a demonic music box, and some spectacular visuals. Regardless of the theme, regardless of the location, regardless of the ghosts, one thing is clear with this Disney Classic: There's always room for one more. Any volunteers?!

WDW* scents you never see used for candles or soap or whatever but are Iconic(tm):

Pirates of the Caribbean Water

Maelstrom Mildew Memories

Plastic Cheese

Someone Else's Suntan Lotion (Jungle Cruise edition)

The Baby Giraffe Won't Move (grass and salt water (aka sweat))

Giftshop AC on a Summer Afternoon

Flooding in Hollywood Studios (rain water and idk fucking what does Jazz smell like???)

Regret: Festival Drinks (rotating seasonal scent)

Fireworks (intense smell for "oh no is Fantasyland on fire again)

Please post about et adventure, i work there and there arent enough posts about it especially with the 40th anniversary of the movie and the 32nd anniversary of the ride that just happened ♡

You know what's funny about E.T. Adventure? I've been to Universal 3 times, each time longer than the last, and I still haven't ridden it. And I hate that I haven't! It's just every time we go to the park we just seem to miss that part of it.

I have seen POVs, of course (One of which will be linked at the bottom of this post), and while it looks like an odd one, I really want to ride it!

For those who don't know, E.T. Adventure is a dark ride that opened in Universal Studios Orlando in 1990. It's based on the 1982 Speilburg film: E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. The ride features things like the iconic flying bike scene, E.T.'s home planet, music from the film, and plenty of animatronics.

From what I know and have seen, it is very much a ride from the early 90's. The animatronics are pretty decent and in good shape, obviously not the quality of animatronics in newer rides such as Reign of Kong and Hagrid's Magical Creature Motorbike Adventure. That being said, of course, they absolutely still hold up considering, I don't believe, they've ever been replaced.

Between that, the bright, fun colors, and creative scenery, I'm not surprised this ride is such a fan favorite.

I also know the Tribute Store is currently set to "Summer" and themed to a cinema, and that the first "theater" is specifically themed to E.T. for the anniversary. From what I've seen it's extremely well done and I think it's super cool to see the Tribute Store all lit up for a change.

The E.T. portion of the store features things like a 40th-anniversary cup for $10 (Which is an absolute steal for something like that), an E.T. hidden in the toys figurine for $95, as well various shirts, trinkets, and toys, such as the Speak and Spell that was featured in the movie.

Most of which are available on the Shop Universal website: HERE

I recommend that if you're headed to the parks soon, you not only make sure to ride E.T. Adventure but that you also make your to the tribute store to see the wonderful theming and possibly get an E.T.-themed snack from the concession!

I would also like to say that while I do post articles and videos from WDW News and Universal News I am not affiliated with them in the slightest. They just seem to always have the most up-to-date and trustworthy news for the parks I've seen.

Check out this listing I just added to my Poshmark closet: Barefoot Dreams NWT Slipper L Disney Mickey Men's Cozy Chic Gray cc NEW.

Another design of trash can has appeared at WDW's Toy Story Land inside Disney's Hollywood Studios. This style uses 3 primary colors - blue, green, and yellow - and moves away from the standard LEGO-like block pattern to one that emphasizes diagonals. Featured in both inlet flap and flapless designs for the trash can version, the recycling version utilizes the common circle-slot inlet on all units. These cans have appeared near the construction area for the planned Roundup Rodeo BBQ restaurant. // Walt Disney World, Disney's Hollywood Studios, Toy Story Land, 2022 [Source: LaughingPlace.comk.
