Fastpass: Whispering Canyon (I've never been there, but I've heard enough stories from friends that it sounds like blast)
Standby: Skipper Canteen
Skip: 50s Prime Time

Keeping the food theme - Restaurants with cool interior theming

Blue Bayou, Be our Guest, Sci-Fi Diner

Fastpass: Be Our Guest (love that roast beef sandwich!)
Standby: Sci-Fi Diner (have seen all those movies)
Skip: Blue Bayou

Disney World upcoming attractions:

Tron Roller coaster, Guardians of the Galaxy, Ratatouille ride

bison74 · Posted: Sat Aug 11, 2018 7:26 pm Post subject:

Fastpass: Tron Roller Coaster (I've probably been waiting for this since I was 9)
Standby: Ratatouille (only because my daughter says we're going to the park just to ride this when it opens)
Skip: Guardians of the Galaxy (not that I'm against this attraction, it just doesn't have my attention like the other two)

Okay, so I've been gazing (longingly) at the Food & Wine menus ... what shall we eat over the next few months (my gosh, I could only pick 3!):

Beer-braised Beef served with Smoked Gouda Mashed Potatoes (Belgium)
Seared Scallops, Truffled Celery Root PurÃ©e, Brussels Sprouts and Wild Mushrooms (Wine and Dine Studio)
Kalua Pork Slider with Sweet and Sour DOLEÂ® Pineapple Chutney and Spicy Mayonnaise (Hawaii)

Fastpass: Beer braised beef
Standby: Kahlua pork slider
Skip: Seared Scallops (just not a big seafood fan)

Bringing back some defunct entertainment -
Electric Light parade
EPCOT double decker bus playing reggae and serving Red Stripe
Off Kilter

Fast pass: Off Kilter
Standby: Main Street Electrical parade
Skip: Dbl decker Epcot bus

Really do miss Off Kilter.

Thinking about possible actor replacements should Disney ever decide to make a new Circlevision film for Canada.

Rick Moranis, Eugene Levy, Will Arnett

Purely hypothetical-really enjoy the film with Martin Short!

bison74 · Posted: Thu Aug 16, 2018 1:04 pm Post subject:

Great question!
Fastpass: Will Arnett
Standby: Eugene Levy
Skip: Rick Moranis

This is no cut to Rick Moranis, but I honestly just tried to think which of these guys I could sit and listen to for 17-20 minutes.

So, here's the scenario: You've been chillin' on a bench in the middle of Epcot - dead center in front of World Showcase. Do you ...
Go left toward Mexico/Norway, Go right toward Canada/UK, or go back to Futureworld?

kraysister · Posted: Fri Aug 17, 2018 1:08 am Post subject:

Fastpass: Mexico/Norway (margaritas!)
Standby:Canada/UK (love the street performers)
Skip: going to futureworld

I love futureworld but it needs some work to put it into the future.

Who would you like to hear narrate Spaceship Earth?
David Attenborough
James Earl Jones
Helen Mirren

bison74 · Posted: Sun Aug 19, 2018 7:21 pm Post subject:

Fastpass: Helen Mirren
Standby: David Attenborough
Skip: James Earl Jones

Jones would probably be fantastic, but I'm afraid I'd spend the entire time going "Darth Vader is narrating this".

Not that I'm encouraging sequels, but if they had to ....
Enchanted 2, Fantasia 3, Incredibles 3?

schinkus98 · Posted: Mon Aug 20, 2018 5:49 am Post subject:

Fast pass: Incredibles 3
Standby: Enchanted 2
Skip: Fantasia 3

This one wasn't the softball I thought it was going to be when I started really considering these movies.

Since we're on movies anyway, I really enjoyed "Maleficent", and got to thinking about the back stories of other villains. Think those could be some very interesting stories to learn!
These are the three I thought of first:
Gaston, Ursula, and Cruella DeVil

bison74 · Posted: Mon Aug 20, 2018 6:15 pm Post subject:

Fastpass: Cruella De Vil
Standby: Ursula
Skip: Gaston

I actually think there is a "Young Cruella" movie in development, I believe the rumor is Emma Stone - I'm not 100%, could have been pure rumor. Ursula could be very creative. I'm not sure how interesting Gaston's younger life would be.

Let's do another round of villains worthy of a back story:

Captain Hook, Gideon and Foulfellow, Scar

schinkus98 · Posted: Sat Aug 25, 2018 8:02 am Post subject:

These could all be interesting!
Fast pass: Capn Hook
Standby: Scar
Skip: Gideon and Foulfellow

Let's go completely theoretical:
Lifetime of free park admissions, lifetime of free meals, or lifetime of free resort stays?

bison74 · Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2018 1:38 pm Post subject:

Niiiiice!

Fastpass: Free Resort
Standby: Free Park
Skip: Free Meals

Where do I sign up?
If you get free resort, but you can only choose 1:
Animal Kingdom Lodge, Grand Floridian, Wilderness Lodge
