Fastpass: PhilharMagic (my favorite of the 3)
Standby: Monsters Inc
Skip: Country Bears (I've only been once, maybe twice)
What should have happened with MuppetVision 3-D?
Move attraction to existing empty space, update tech
Close it & throw some Muppet overlays onto rock n roller coaster
1st ride in a new Muppets Land/area |

Fast Pass: 1st ride in a new Muppets Land (updated or as-is, I’ll be happy with either!)
Standby: Move attraction to an empty space and update
Skip: Close it and throw some overlays onto R-N-R.
First choice was easy, but ordering up the other two, that was tough.
World Showcase Pavilion that really needs some sort of attraction added to it:
Morocco
United Kingdom
Japan |

Fastpass: United Kingdom (they have the plans already for a Mary Poppins themed ride)
Standby: Japan
Skip: Morocco (although that pavilion needs some love & attention)
Something surprisingly lacking at Disney World -
Shade
Graffiti/trash
Unkempt bathrooms |

Truly surprising, all of these are rare at Walt Disney World!
Fast Pass: Unkempt Bathrooms - with the traffic through these, it’s amazing the attendants do as well as they do to keep them presentable
Standby: Trash/graffiti - Again, kudos to the crews that keep things nice, but I do wish the hair bands would disappear on Everest, Mine Train, etc.
Skip: Shade. I get why they don’t put up more shades (ruining the sight lines, etc).
You have to eat all future meals in Epcot at one World Showcase pavilion:
Italy
Mexico
Germany
(If I missed the one you would have picked, I’d be interested in which one it is!) |

Fastpass: Mexico
Standby: Italy
Skip: Germany
If they had an Indian pavilion w/restaurant , that would be #1.
Did you see Disney announced a new theme park to be built in Abu Dhabi (that better be covered for the most part. I don't think a couple of shades here & there are going to cut it.)
R&M that should be at the top of the list -
Make Space Mountain a smoother ride
Get all the moving parts of Rise of the Resistance moving again
Make Rock n Roller coaster a smoother ride |

Fast Pass: Make Roc-N-Roller Coaster smoother-my ears just hurt from slamming into that restraint repeatedly on that one!
Standby: Repair all the moving parts on Rise of the Resistance-these high tech rides are great until stuff starts failing.
Skip: Make Space Mountain smoother
That was my first thought about a park in Abu Dhabi, too. They average a high of around of 110° for several months through the summer!
Secondary characters for which a fun attraction could be developed:
Yao, Po, and Ling from Mulan
Al McWhiggin (Al’s Toy Barn guy) from Toy Story
Mama Odie from Princess and the Frog |

Truly hope none of them ever disappear, but I’d order them just as you have them!
Fast Pass: Christmas Story Tellers
Standby: Rose and Crown piano player
Skip: Scavenger Hunts
The new Pirates themed Beak and Barrell restaurant will have storytelling and sing along. Other possibilities:
LaFou in Gaston’s Tavern
Bert in a Mary Poppin themed place
Big Daddy (maybe at a piano) and Charlotte in a Princess and the Frog place |

Fastpass: Bid Daddy
Standby: LaFou (with special appearances by Gaston maybe?)
Skip: Bert (would be very similar to Rose & Crown pianist I think)
I read somewhere that the Beak & Barrell will be a timed experience, like Oga's Cantina. You'll have 45min to enjoy the place & then you have to leave?!
For the sake of this game, all the following are open to all Disney guests even if in reality they are not.
Which DVC lounge would you want to try the most?
2nd floor of Imagination! Pavilion (EPCOT)
Former Frontierland Shooting Gallery (MK)
Top of the World lounge, 16th floor, Bay Lake Tower |

Fast Pass: Top of the World Lounge - Bay Lake Tower
Standby: Second floor of the Imagination Pavilion
Skip: Frontierland Shooting Gallery
I believe I’ve heard the same about Beak and Barrel being a timed experience for guests. I suppose I can see both sides of that, but I would rather not have a running clock on the guests.
Bring back:
ADR’s at 180 days out
Original paper fast pass system
Morning and Nighttime Extra Magic Hours |

Fast Pass: Soarin’ It would be awesome to get 3-4 rides back to back, that 4 1/2 minutes just goes too fast!
Standby: Kilimanjaro Safari
Skip: Big Thunder - Once a day is plenty for us on this one anymore!
Hopping on the monorail at Magic Kingdom to grab a resort quick service:
Captain Cook’s at the Poly

Fast Pass: Fab Four
Standby: Movie Characters
Skip: Princesses - I prefer doing regular meet and greets with “face” characters. The meal ones seem more hurried, and it’s fun to talk with characters that can talk back.
Adding a new scene to PhilharMagic:
“In Summer” from Frozen
“I’ve got a Dream” from Tangled
“When I’m Human” from Princess and the Frog |
