What is your Disney shameful secret?

[SirKillawatt]

I've always just disliked the hoop dee dew review. I don't know why, I just can't get into it.

 

[Stacy's a freak]

Part of what I regretted was not being there on the official opening night! I was supposed to work, but instead I watched it in TV from my hospital bed while I dealt with life threatening pregnancy complications. I missed a night I dreamed about! (Obviously was worth it for my son and my health though!). I did all the soft openings though, including some special openings just for the movie actors and big wigs. Getting to meet some of my fandom idols will always be a great memory for me!

I think they really really put a lot of effort into getting the detail right, which is partially why they hired people like me - mega fans who could help school the new area leaders and other team members. I don't think they anticipated the congestion in the shops as bad as it was at the beginning and still can be, I was just there in Feb and it was still congested for a low attendance day. Overall as a potterhead I will be happy with just about any effort they put in there as long as it is true to canon.

Wow! I hope you and your son are perfectly healthy now! As another "potterhead", I'm glad they did such a great job in theming the area. I'm very excited to see Diagon Alley (not sure when, but want to!).

I just spent over an hour debating what my husband and I will wear to MNSSHP this year. We still have no conclusion, and I am not sure why I am so stressed out about this considering it is June...

We were a spectacular Cinderella and Prince charming last uear, but now I am a redhead, DH doesn't like hans, and I'm just not sure I can top last year with a kiss the girl little mermaid. The long sleeve pink dress seems like it would be awful to wear since the ones i would order are heavy satin... but I may have to.

Disney addict problems. Losing sleep over princess costumes 4 months out. (;

This is normal for costumers. We start working on our costumes for the next year the minute Dragon*Con is over, and sometimes our costumes take us a couple of years to assemble.

1. I think Avatar Land at AK is a TERRIBLE idea.

2. I think Star Wars Land at HS is a GREAT idea.

3. I hate It's A Small World.

4. Often I see people on the forums saying they're gross... But I have to eat at least one turkey leg per trip. One the upcoming trip, my first solo, I might have two. Three if I get really crazy. (Not all on the same day!)

It is not shameful to say Avatar Land is a terrible idea! It is.

There's Meridia from Brave?

My wife loves wearing her Merida.

I considered this but it puts me in a long sleeve dress made of velvet (though probably better than the thick satin of pink ariel), and I would need a wig since I have a lot of hair, but not that much. It's mid back but stick straight and won't hold a tight curl. The wig thing turns me off, I hate them. I suppose it isn't totally out of the running though, I would live. Also, I have no clue what I'd do with DH, who would feel very left out

I'm hoping he will get over his newfound hatred for Hans and just go with it, since I already have an Anna gown. If not, it's looking like it will be Ariel.

 

[keahgirl8]

Does he also hate Kristoff? Or what about Olaf? There were a lot of guys dressed like Olaf at the PHM.

He doesn't want a wig either lol. Not blonde.

I actually found an amazing Ariel dress today, blue just like the one she wears in the park, it is just way too big. Beautiful though. I'm in talks with the lady who has it about if it can be altered to my size, if so done deal, I'm wearing that.

If he can't get over the hans thing, maybe he will just wear a white shirt and I'll make him an olaf hat and he can be done with it. lol!


It's not the biggest deal in the world obviously, we are just very much into MNSSHP

Plus my nieces think it's cool when I show them pictures. Cool aunt status over here.

My shameful secret, today...

I don't like Frozen!
(ducks to avoid arrows!)

I tried! I was SO pumped up for the movie to come out.

Just couldn't feel it. And I LOVE Disney.

I feel the same way.

My other shameful secret...I don't get the appeal of World Showcase.

......My one Disney loving friend and I were dancing with the guy in candy stripes playing the piano near Mainstreet. It was at that point our magic was cut short as we heard someone make a comment on it being weird for adults without kids to be dancing. Then we realized we were in fact the only adults dancing. After that experience, I've been back a few times but didn't really enjoy myself......

This just makes me sad. I know it's so much easier said than done, but please try not to worry about what random people say or think! I would have had some "smart" comment back to that person about how sad their life must be to not get up to dance and enjoy it. It's Disney! It's fun! Dance like no one is watching! Cheer on the characters! Walking through the gates is magic in and of itself. If you find magic in dancing with the music, or twirling in front of the castle, etc., be happy to be living in the moment

-I hate Animal Kingdom
-I like to go back to the room and take a nap during the middle of the day
-I hate parades
-I don't like the characters to mess with me when I am eating or put their hands on my face after all the little gross kids they touch
-People who decorate their windows bug me so I put liquor bottles in my window
-I hide my purse under my jacket and go thru the no bags line
-Think anyone with an ECV should have to have note from Doctor to ride

I have to object to your dispersion of people useing ECVs I use one in the parks. There is a lot of walking and I have 2 bad knees, very bad feet, and asthma riding makes it easier for me to get around and enjoy my time at the parks with my family. If this makes you unhappy I am sorry but that is your problem. Disney is for everyone and that includes me and anyone else who need help getting around. I would use a wheelchair but since I don't need one to get around at home I am not use to rolling myself around and I don't want my family to have to push me around I rent a ECV.

Amen! My mother has 2 injured knees but does not medically need a wheel chair. But it would be too much on her to walk all day so she uses an ECV. Everybody should enjoy the parks and if it makes it easier and more enjoyable, then why not.
