World of Color

[KNRG]

So to grow and reach its potential, it must operate the same way Disney World does? I don't mean to sound rude, but I'm just not following the logic. The resort has been pretty successful for going on 55 years now...

No, like a world class resort - not some hangout for locals.

The same thing Universal Orlando is striving to do along with WDW.

[QUOTE=1FoolishMortal;17345079]Testing video of the show from the PPH (SPOILERS AHEAD, so don't say you haven't been warned...).


This view being from high above the "backside" of the WOC, I wonder if it will be equally as impressive when seen from ground level there? And the soundtrack as well. And if Disney were to offer premium viewing from the cages atop the Fun Wheel, well I'll be the first to get my woolies, mittens and parka, and sign up.

I guess we are going to have a difference of opinions here, I believe Disneyland is a world class resort, as well as Disney World, they just have different operations.

I come to the Disneyland Resort, and I'm from worldwide.

From the official press release...

• Multi-Colored & Flavored Popcorn: A delicious treat that comes in three flavors – red cherry, blueberry and purple grape – and mixed in with regular kettle corn, all served in a Disney California Adventure see-through “World of Color” souvenir popcorn bucket.
• Tropical Mist Cocktail (for adults): It’s a passion fruit and mango liqueur with coconut rum – and a light-up swizzle stick. Available at the Cove Bar and Ariel’s Grotto restaurant.
• Even More Fun: Light-Up Balloons – transparent balloons with light-up “World of Color” art inside; Light-Up Bangle Bracelets; and souvenir “World of Color” travel mugs and sipper cups.

And how, pray - tell, do you know it's not a fact?

I know this is a bit late to the game, but I think the point must be made:

The burden of proof is on you. You must prove your case. You cannot just make claims and then defend it with, "how... do you know it's not a fact?"

I think Disneyland is a world class destination, but I wouldn't qualify it as a resort destination yet. They're working on it, though.

But KNRG is right. It is more of a locals destination at the moment.

Someone else mentioned CM previews... they will be on June 6 at 10pm & 11:15pm.; and June 7 at 9pm, 10:15pm & 11:15pm.

Looks like prices have changed yet again for the dining plans...

Wine Country Trattoria is $39.99 for adults and $18.99 for children while Ariel's Grotto starts at $29.99 for adults and $15.99 for children.

Also, the meal at the Trat includes a pairing of wine.

A) Why do you think $40 for a meal is overpriced? By WDW standards it's a steal.

Yes, and by those same WDW standards, 2001 DCA was a fine full-day park.

"WDW and DLR should be operated the same way."

If this logic was correct, why are they having to spend a single penny to "fix" DCA? Why are they having to build WOC at all?

If the entire history of DCA teaches you one single thing, it is this: DLR and WDW have 2 very different audiences that behave 2 very different ways. That is the only reason the makeover (and WOC) are happening.
