I feel like I'm losing it

Yes, I've googled it every day for the last few days and nothing. It's so infuriating not knowing. I am a planner and control freak and this is torture

So true.
I am holding off on making detailed plans because of this and I fear I will not have enough time to plan properly

100% anxious. I actually have this pegged as news for this week (tomorrow if I were a betting person). See if my Disney brainwaves are working.

Like the rest of you, I'm checking daily for MB+ on the website for pre-order.

On another note - trying to plan out my DHS day. Any hear any rumors of Fantasmic coming back?

Recent rumors suggest Oct 1.

Thanks. My little one will be disappointed.

PSA for anyone who hasn’t finalized their plans yet…park passes are filling fast for days with Halloween parties. Lock in your MK days now!

I thought MK was less crowded on party days? Shouldn't it be the last park to fill up on those days?

Park res also include staffing. Lesser crowds would imply less staff during the day so less availibility for park res. especially if you have the same headcount but longer hours due to the party.

Hmm... well, we're planning to buy our park tickets this week and then make our park reservations. This is good info to know - thanks!

I lucked out here, I legit adjusted my MK day yesterday.

Is anyone else anxiously waiting to hear what, if anything, changes on Aug 7th with Genie +? Some of the current Genie rides were ILL and are Genie + until Aug 7th.

Really hope they keep it as is with Remy and Space as regular LL (as opposed to pay by ride).

Anyone else doing pre-Disney watching? Last night I started the movie Avatar...and I also have The Force Awakens on my list of To Dos before we go. Not a Star Wars fan but feel like I should try and watch at least one, and someone said that is the best one for the new rides.

Same here! I cancelled my departure day park res for a MNSSHP day MK reservation (for which I have tickets but I have g+ so I'll try and make the most of it before the party to focus on non-rides activities)

Yes but not that genre, I'm binging on Beauty and the Beast, Frozen, Aladdin, Cinderella......anything with Disney songs in that lift my heart and send my excitement levels through the roof

That said, I'm travelling with my 14 year old nephew so no girlie rides allowed during our trip! It will be FOP, Marvel, Galaxy's edge. No Frozen or Beauty and the Beast sing-a-long for me this year.

We haven't watched movies yet but I have been listening to WDW today on Youtube! It gets me so excited!

I've been wondering how to get my kids/teens ready for Star Wars rides. My 16 year old watched the movies with her boyfriend so that's good. But the other 2 really aren't interested in starting a long watch of Star Wars. So thank you for that recommendation, we're going to watch The Force Awakens and see if it helps.

I still have yet to watch a Star Wars movie and love batuu. I do have to admit that watching Pandora (yawn) made things make more sense!

We watched Ratatouille, the Remy movie, for the first time before went to WDW on a prior trip. It really helped a lot to know what that ride was all about. And we re-watched Guardians of the Guardians before our May trip.
