Please Help Me Justify This $89 Decision I’m About to Make in Disney World

By 4 Comments

Oh, hi there. I appreciate you coming to read this and possibly deter me from making what I am absolutely CERTAIN is a monstrously horrible financial choice. Or is it…????

Magic Kingdom fireworks

Disney keeps doing this to us — with the $79,000 Spaceship Earth and the clock that costs 2 grand — but those are pretty easy to resist, TBH. I don’t know about you, but if I have $79,000 it’s probably gonna go in my retirement fund. And $2,000 could get me one night (maybe) at the Grand Floridian…(LOL except it’s kind of true).

But THIS. This could potentially be within the realm of a “questionable but defensible choice” rather than a pipe dream, right? Check it out:

NEW! Pixar-Color Slushes Added to Neighborhood Bakery Menu in Disney’s Hollywood Studios

By Leave a Comment

Yesterday we had a HUGE surprise when Pixar Place — that space where the Toy Story Mania entrance used to be back in the day, and which used to be called Municiberg — re-opened in Disney’s Hollywood Studios!

Mr. and Mrs. Incredible at Pixar Place Meet and Greet

It’s right on the way to Toy Story Land, and it’s now where you can meet Incredibles characters and Sulley from Monsters Inc.!

But the BEST part about Pixar Place in OUR humble opinion is…the Neighborhood Bakery! This tiny snack stand is the ONLY place where you can currently get Jack-Jack’s Num Num Cookies in Disney World! (And believe me…you definitely want to get them.) And we’ve just spotted a BRAND NEW addition to the menu!

Three Super Popular Ways To Get Severely Hurt in Disney World (Speaking From Experience)

By 4 Comments

Hi! You might think Disney World is all safety and not-getting-wounded, but I’m here to tell you that’s NOT ALWAYS TRUE! It is, in fact, rather common to get hurt in Disney World…at least in these three ways… .

Haunted Mansion in Disney World

SO MANY Disney fans have experience with these injuries, so we’re sounding the alarm and making sure YOU don’t make the same mistakes WE have…over and over again!

We’re headed to Magic Kingdom first, which may look all kinds of unthreatening. Those cute Main Street U.S.A. shops, fluffy characters, and magical princesses couldn’t possibly end in disaster could they?

If You ACTUALLY Like This Character…He Has More Ears in EPCOT Now

By 2 Comments

OK OK OK don’t come at me I KNOW a lot of you are huge fans of Chuuby from Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Disneyland. In our WhatsApp thread for DFB there is HUGE LOVE for Chuuby, so heads up if you are a part of the Chuuby fan club!

Chuuby!

He’s already got two pairs of ears that you probably have in your collection (these ones, and these ones), but a new pair of CHUUBY-CENTRIC ears have just dropped in EPCOT!

(OK he IS kind of cute, but maybe I’m still a little bit salty about Great Movie Ride.)

These new finds are the see-through ones that we’ve already seen online and in Disneyland, but it’s a first for us to see them in EPCOT.

“There’s No Shortage of Money” Says Disney Executive on New Theme Park Projects

By 4 Comments

I sat down this morning with Josh D’Amaro, the Chairman of Walt Disney Parks, Experiences, and Products, with some fellow writers and reporters for a Q and A, and he had strong thoughts on the future of the Disney parks. 

50th Anniversary Cinderella Castle

Colloquially referred to as DPEP by Walt Disney Company insiders, D’Amaro’s silo is an arm of the Walt Disney Company that’s extremely profitable, and actually supplements the budgets for up-and-coming projects like Disney’s streaming services — which have lately seen huge losses to the tune of $1.4 Billion. And DPEP continues to thrive, with profits nearly doubling year over year. [Read more…]
