Giselle from Enchanted??

[jenniferma]

Hi-- I just wanted to double check.. my DD4 LOVES Giselle and I was wondering where you can find her in the parks? I had heard in the DS (mgm) parade-- is this the only place?

thanks!

There was a thread on this a couple of days ago and I can't find it to give you the link, but Giselle is no longer appearing in the DHS parade, but it has now been "confirmed" that she is seen at the "pre-parade" at MK. I tried to call Disney regarding this (because I too have an obsessed 4 yo dd) and they had no clue what I was talking about. We will be there in a few weeks and will post when I return to confirm or deny.

I do hope it is true though - we'd LOVE to see Giselle.

As a side note - don't forget to pick up a copy of the Enchanted DVD being released on March 18. This is going in my daughter's Easter basket - can't wait!

Here is the thread you mentioned: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1735957

Yes, she's now part of the MK pre-parade, but I'm not how long she will be. I'd LOVE to see her doing meet n greets somewhere.

thank you for your responses. I can't imagine why she wouldn't be out more in the parks.. I am sure there are plenty of little girls that love her too?!?! weird. I would think right now she would be hotter than Pocahontas or some of the other Princesses???

thanks again- jennifer

I simpsize with you. unfortunatley I think it will probably be a while before they decide to have her doing a meet and greet. I have a DD that is absolutley in love with Tinkerbell. The only place that you can find her in the parks is in one of the parades or comming down from the castle durring the fireworks, and she has been in the hearts of many disney fans for years. I do feel your pain but I would not hold my breath for this one. The reason you can find pocahontas in mhop is that she fits in so well in the Animal Kingdom. Tink and Giselle unfortunatly or just two more princesses to add to the long list. Maybe if we are lucky they will get the hint and add them to the list of meet and greets or to a character meal somewhere. That would be nice wouldn't it.

My kids love Tinkerbelle too-- have you done the "Waking up Tink" at the Tinkerbelle Treasure's Toy store?

we missed it, but my friend did it and her dd loved it!
have a great day

Which "pre-Parade" are we talking abt? The 3pm parade? We were just there 2 weeks ago and did not see her at all. Maybe they just started having her? I'm bummed if we just missed her! I don't get why Disney is not cashing in on her popularity right now.

They probably have her for the pre-parade due to the release of "Enchanted" on DVD.I'd guess she probably won't be in the parade for more than a month or so. We've been in the parks when Nemo was in the pre parade due to the movie coming out and the same for some others.

Got more info from my friend...She believes it's going to be running until the 25th...but definitely until the DVD release.

I don't like the idea of having a live action "princess" as a character. I know what Amy Adams looks like, and unless you have a dead-on look-alike, it's just silly. My family was not very convinced at some of the Jack Sparrows out there.

Yes, I would imagine it's difficult to live up to Johnny Depp, isn't it?! And Amy Adams for that matter!

If you ask the Jack Sparrow at the park, he'll tell you that he's the REAL Capt. Jack. Johnny Depp was just playing him in the movies.

I agree. No one could top Amy Adams as Giselle.

I don't know. That picture of the gal above your post is awful close and very pretty. I would love to meet Giselle, cause of her bubbly personality and all.

I agree, too. And let's get rid of those Mary Poppins and Bert characters at MK. They look nothing like Julie Andrews and Dick Van D yke. And that new Cruela De Vil meet and greet at DHS? That's not Glenn Close! Stop it right now!

Obviously, this is sarcasm. Disney has a long history of characters from its live action movies appearing in the parks. Anybody remember Pete riding the Elliott float in the ELP? I see no reason why it should stop now.

lol, Jack actually mentioned Johnny? That's funny!

Not to mention there is a Walt Disney character in the "3 O'Clock Parade" at MK.

No kidding-hope it stays until MAR 28 when we arrive.

Technically Giselle isn't an actual "princess", and (according to Disney) she isn't considered part of the official Disney Princess line like Snow White, Cinderella, etc are.

I simpsize with you. unfortunatley I think it will probably be a while before they decide to have her doing a meet and greet. I have a DD that is absolutley in love with Tinkerbell.

Don't worry, Tink will get her fair share. Rumor has it that she will be making her meet & greet debut sometime around when her movie is released (October 28).
