Fastpass: Epcot Storytellers - think this would be very interesting
Standby: Merry Menagerie at Animal Kingdom
Skip: Altering rides for Christmas - always think about the guests who’ve maybe never been to the parks before, and might never get to do it again. They’re missing out in the attraction in the manner that made it a classic.
World Showcase pavilion to which you’d most like to see added a Circlevision 360 theatre and film:
Germany
Italy
Japan |

I'd prefer seating, but...
Fastpass: Japan (have never been)
Standby: Germany (castles!)
Skip: (but not really) Italy

Fast pass: Zootopia 2
Standby: Toy Story 5 - had to weigh these last two. Really felt this series should have ended at 3.
Skip: Frozen 3 - seems Disney is more concerned with checking all the “diversity boxes” instead of making sure the movie is simply good when the cast is human characters. Not bothered by seeing a diverse lot of characters, but it’s a disservice to them when the movie is a mess.
IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth
Epcot Forever
Harmonious |

That order if you were asking which one I like the best.
Fastpass: Illuminations
Standby: EPCOT forever
Skip: Harmonious
I did love the Tapestry of Nations parade (with the enormous drums) that used to go around World Showcase.
You rent a car instead of using Disney Transportation.
Big SUV
Mustang convertible
Give me any car as long as it has a/c |

Fast pass: Anything, as long as it’s got that a/c!
Standby: Mustang convertible
Skip: Big SUV - Just betting a big thing that really fills the parking slot from stripe to stripe is inevitably going to get door dinged at some point.
You’ve got the Beauty and the Beast sing-along in Epcot, and the Frozen one in Hollywood Studios. Which others would you like to see get the same type of attraction in one of the remaining parks?
The Jungle Book
Tangled
Mary Poppins |

Fastpass: Mary Poppins (songs are still well known thanks to the recent live action movies)
Standby: Tangled
Skip: The Jungle Book (catchiest songs, but not sure how many of the younger generation would know them & be drawn into a sing-a-long)
Existing ride in need of refurbishment (e.g. paint job, audio system, etc no major changes) Magic Kingdom edition
It's a Small World
Carousel of Progress
Under the Sea: Voyage of the Little Mermaid
Side note - between Covid & now not being able to get employees (thanks in no small part to poor wages), I feel that failing to do basic upkeep/maintenance is really showing. |

Fast Pass: It’s a Small World - they’ve added dolls in wheelchairs to the DL version, hoping if they do the same in WDW it will coincide with some maintenance.
Standby: Under the Sea
Skip: Carousel of Progress - there are issues, but they don’t seem as glaring as the ones in other attractions. New seats would be nice, though!
Perfect quick afternoon snack:
Mickey ice cream bar
Mickey pretzel
Popcorn |

Fast Pass: Walking - would love to stay so close to a park, and storms or technical difficulties won’t shut down a simple sidewalk!
Standby: SkyLiner - even though it’s far more likely to be shut down than the monorail, it’s so darn neat!
Skip: Monorail - but only because, in this scenario, one of these incredible choices had to land here!
Theoretical “Dream Suite” you’d most want to call home for a trip:
Tangled Rapunzel’s Tower suite
Tower of Terror suite
Snow White/Seven Dwarfs cottage suite |

Fastpass: Tower of Terror Suite (open up the Tip Top Club!)
Standby: Snow White cottage (although privacy might be an issue)
Skip: Rapunzel tower suite. (Isn't the tower part of the bathroom area? That could be dicey.)
I think a lot of money could be made if a Tip Top Club were built.)
Favorite park icon -
Cinderella Castle
Tree of Life
Spaceship Earth |
