News Round Up 2019

[TheMaxRebo]

so since there seems to be a lot of interest in the Gran Destino tower (looking at you @Farro ) .... thought I would post this here - it's the DISs overview video of it

15 minute mark shows the view from the balcony and how you can see Everest, Blizard Beach, DHS, etc.

@TheMaxRebo Watched it on my way to work!

The strawberry was a bit...chalky...imo. But it's a cute little treat. I would take the Maleficent one over this any day

only one sort of like this I have had (with the alternate flavor of dole whip float) is the Peter Pan one which I thought was excellent - so anything would have to at least live up to that one for me

Just to add to this - looks like new "options" available as you can get the strawberry swirled with vanilla or chocolat and then not in a float. I always love that option of regular Dole Whip, that being swirled with vanilla, so intrigued by this:

Idk why I let little things like this bother me but I’m worried about this. I love that sign and I love the lights and feel if Tomorrowland at night. I hope it doesn’t change too much. I already hate the neon rocket ship signs for Monsters and Stitch got taken away.

If people really look at the reviews and videos, there's nods to Disney all over this hotel. Hidden Mickey's on the hallways and even little Mickey heads on the barn door to the bathroom!

Just saw this bonus...

I’m going to disagree. I’m loving the Tomorrowland changes. More simple clean looking things are futuristic not all this crazy nonsense. I think Shanghai has the best looking Tomorrowland.

I dont know I still feel DLP with its Jules-Vern Influence is pretty spectacular even if they call it Discoveryland instead of Tommorowland. It still has its versions of "classic" Tommorowland rides

That one is good too but like you said not a true Tomorrowland. I think that one is unique in its own right.

While I'm glad they're getting some enhancements, now I'm wondering if adding the WP upgrade to our tickets will be worth it as September is still HOT, HOT, HOT and we'll only have 1 WP to to go....along with everyone else. Hmmm, has me rethinking paying the upgraded price. Wish they'd announced this sooner than 2 months ahead of time.

On the good side, we planned on going to one of the WPs on our arrival day, Sep 7th. Guess it will be BB to get one trip in there before it closes.

WOW!!!! That was fast!!! I do like the clean look crossing the bridge though.

This is a weird one where I'm gonna be nostalgic and miss the old. I kinda loved the weird campy "future" aesthetic. That said, it's definitely the right move, it probably looks ridiculous to the younger generation.

The first part was exactly my reaction too!

Are they still expanding the path by the castle?
