That's true but a nice stroll after Illuminations and then dinner is pretty perfect:)

I think between boardwalk, epcot and world showcase, you have one of the biggest clusters of food and entertainment on wdw property. Probably in direct comparison with the springs. You add in a few rides for the kids and it's a pretty ideal place for childless couples (and those with children old enough to roam on their own) to wander on their own for a bit.

I agree. We just got back from a stay at the YC over thanksgiving. My kids are 22,21,& 16 and it is our favorite area to stay in (Boardwalk, BC, YC area).
 
So I watched the ABC Holiday day special:
- the Toy Story Land Sneak Peak was pretty useless if you've followed it at all
- the new Last Jedi trailer/sneak peak was fun and had some new scenes
- noticed they referred to the Olaf's Frozen Adventure as a "featurette" not a "short"
- some good performances - I liked Fitz and the Tantrums, Darious Rucker, and Hanson
- the lighting the Castles in multiple Disney Parks (they Skippers piped Tokyo) was pretty cool

The Toy Story preview on the Disney Channel special was better even though it didn't show much.

I was disappoint when the fireworks at Disneyland at the end were CGI. Like really Disney?

I thought the same thing about all of these. The Toy Story sneak peak was useless.

The only thing I really noticed was all of the "fake" fireworks for Disneyland at the end. In my eyes, it really looked fake which made me upset in a way since that is my favorite park. I also wonder what the lighting of the Castles means when it is just the projection technology? Do all of the Castles around the world not decorate their castles with lights?

The only thing I wonder is when did they film it? If it was after a certain time, they can't shoot off fireworks. Also, the weather could effect it. I was disappointed in that as well.

It definitely seemed like they wanted all the castles to have a similar look/technology

Most of it was filmed a few weeks ago.

Shanghai and maybe HK are the only ones that don't do the lights I believe. Paris, DL, and MK all have castle lights.
