Dick Dale, Guitarist on the 1996 Soundtrack for Disneyland's Space Mountain, Dies at 81

Did not know he did that he did anything related to the parks. He was awesome. Sad to see him go, he put on a great concert.

PHOTOS: New Tommy Bahama Enchanted Tiki Room Shirt Arrives at Disney Parks

I really like that shirt, but $150 for a shirt? I mean, the rest of my clothes would be jealous as I think I spent the same on all of them collectively

Yeah, but it says Tommy Bahama on it.

Yeah, but it says Tommy Bahama on it.

ah, so that explains it .... I'll stick with my Star Wars Hawaiian shirt I got at Kohl's for like $17

Yeah I always wait for discounted Tommy Bahama items or at the outlets.

Cannot wait for these! We never rode Space when it was pitch black for last year's party....dh needs to be able to see where we're going on that ride so he can lean appropriately....."iffy" back/neck.

Not sure if this is news or not, but blog mickey has a photo of the Star Wars screen for the play parks app:

Also, there is a WestWorld connection!

Should be exciting. I'll have to brush up on my game skills.

That seems odd. You'd think they would continue to offer the Toy Story Land one after SWGE opens due to the high demand of people wanting to go to that park. I am sure there are plenty of people that would get this just to get those attractions out of the way so they can spend the day at SWGE.

Though, now that I think about it -- maybe it is a crowd control thing. You wonder how many people would buy EMM for Toy Story Land and just skip it to just be first one in line over at Grand Avenue (or wherever they would start the line for entrance into the land).

Hopefully the path to get to SWGE would be completely blocked off to EMM. Isn't it rumored that the entrance (at least in the beginning) to SWGE will be at Grand Avenue? So only allow EMM people get to Toy Story Land via THAT path.

I was surprised how long bag check was backed up at MK this last time we were there. I suppose if they really wanted to, I think they could expand into the lagoon, moving the boat access back in the process.

I kid you not, I waited an hour to get into MK at park opening one of our days last fall. Dh just walked right in since he didn't have a bag to check. I passed the time by talking to people waiting in line with me.....it's all fun.

Now your pets can get into the Disney Spirit (Jersey) too!

Not sure I would pay $35 for these for our pups. We'd have to buy each of them one so no sibling rivalry would occur. I can definitely see our daughter buying them for her big dogs!

ah, so that explains it .... I'll stick with my Star Wars Hawaiian shirt I got at Kohl's for like $17

Yeah, $150 is a lot of money.

 

[PolyRob]

looks like it just opened:

You will also be able to buy them online soon.

So if you don't already have one, buying one right now in person is just to have one for your own personal use/to bring home? They're not actually on sale in the parks to have in front of MK right now?

If I can order one on my next trip to actually have in Florida, that would be so cool! If not, I guess I will be stalking ShopDisney.

So that I understand, what is said below from that ink is for a souvenir version... just a decorative thing to have at home... correct? Seems a tad odd if you never had one to begin with, but why turn down the extra $$$ if I'm Disney?!

"Also available to any Guests, not just those who originally sponsored a brick in “Disney’s Walk Around the World,” will be a 6” brick ($29.99 plus tax – available now), 8” brick ($49.99 plus tax – available now) and ornament ($24.99 plus tax – on sale soon), all with customization included. These are at Tomorrowland Light & Power Co. (at Magic Kingdom Park) or the Marketplace Co-Op (at Disney Springs), or on shopDisney.com starting this spring."​

Somehow I think you just called me odd. You haven't been talking to Mrs. Tigger have you?

 

[Bay Max]

i saw that - definitely a bummer for people that participated

We don't have one there but do have one at the stadium the NY Mets play at and always fun to find our brick and the kids enjoy seeing it, etc.

Nice to see a fellow Mets fan on the boards! We've got a brick and Citifield as well. And one near the Polynesian. The later brick has not been legible for years.

Ya think you know what your purpose in life is, and you are all good with that ... and then BAM a girl starts giving you ideas that there is more out there and you start questioning everything!

Toy Story 4 Trailer

So excited!!

 

[OhioStateBuckeye]

Meh toy story 4.

Granted the toy storys were never my favorites, but haven't we done this before? Woody gets lost, other toys have to find him, his beliefs are challenged, he comes back home.

I'll probably see it, but not excited.

I’m sort of the opposite in that I love the Toy story films. Yes there are some similarities in Woody getting lost but it is different enough. Bo while still “nice” to Woody almost seems to play sort of the villain side as she doesn’t want Woody to leave.

I am a sucker for these as it brings me more back to my youth and identified with Andy when he had to "grow up" and put away childish things, etc.

So I am very into this and see where it goes ... the actors keep talking about how emotional this is so I wonder if it is this time Woody knows it is time for him to move on and he doesn't go back
