News Round Up 2017

You don't have to be checked in to the resort to pick it up. We did this for a shirt for my mom that she wanted to wear the day we got there. We ordered it a couple days before we got there and when we got to the resort we went to the gift shop in the resort to pick it up. She changed in the bathroom, put the old shirt in her suitcase, dropped it off at luggage services, and we left for the park. It was great!

I never knew this was an option! Thank you for posting your experience, very helpful indeed!

I'm not a fan of either of those rumors... I would love to see some different shows in that location, like the Disney Broadway shows, or the traveling Cirque shows.

I am with you - I think more entertainment is needed more than more restaurants ... unless of course by "adult entertainment" they mean something like the Adventurer's Club - then I am in! (though if they wanted to do that they could have just kept the Adventurer's Club)

You know I'm in on that...but just in general I would like to see more adult oriented entertainment on site. Things like AC and Comedy Warehouse and the other clubs at Pleasure Island and the one piece of adult entertainment left to enjoy - Jellyrolls...we will easily drop $100 at Jellyrolls in a night and would've easily dropped $100-150 at Pleasure Island had it still existed. Instead we go back to our room and watch TV... definitely missing out on a market here.

Yes! Its very convenient if you want something right away! I did it on my last trip. It was exciting getting to pick resort delivery and anticipating my arrival and package

Wait, a trailer for a short? Is it like 8 seconds long? (If you do the ratio from a full length movie to a regular short)

True. I bet the only reason they are doing a trailer at all is because it's frozen.

They actually do release trailers for most shorts. I don't think they promote any of them on GMA though.

Here is the trailer for the Frozen short:

It actually looks interesting.

This one isn't that short though - it's more than 20 minutes long. I believe it was originally produced to be a half-hour long special on ABC, but I guess they've moved it to theaters help sell Coco tickets?
