Jim Hill gives details about Tangled from the Comic Con panel. It sounds really promising and I am more excited about this movie then any Disney (animated) movie in awhile. I have really liked almost all the recent Disney animated movies but there haven't been many I have been really excited about beforehand. Happily, three of the main characters (Rapunzel, Mother Gothel and Flynn) will be coming to the parks before the movie release (rumors say Oct for WDW at least) and I can't wait to meet them in December! Disney posted this behind the scenes video describing how they came up with the "look" of Tangled
The Disney Parks blog posted the following awesome video of World of Color from an airplane at 1800 feet... it is a pretty awesome view!
WDW Magic reports that the Glas und Porzellan shop in Epcot's Germany pavilion has closed so that construction can begin on new Karamelle-Kuche shop that will replace it. The new shop will sell gourmet caramels and other tasty German treats. It is supposed to reopen in late Sept and we will definitely be checking it out when we go there in Dec!
Disneyland Paris released some more teasers about their upcoming Halloween festivities and parties. The main news as I reported before is that Dr. Facilier will be joining the other Disney Villains. He will definitely be in the Halloween pre-parade and shows... not sure if he will be available for Meet and Greets but we are hopeful! Speaking of the "pre-parade", for those that aren't familiar with DLPs normal Halloween offerings in years past there has been a short pre-parade before the normal day parade with all the villains, Jack, Sally, and a bunch of Pumpkin People; however, this year it sounds like the special Halloween section might be *after* the normal parade instead of before and will include a new float themed for Dr. Facilier. They also released more details for their Halloween Eve party "Terrorific Night 2" which will be held in the studios park and they promise to be much more scary than the normal Halloween parties in Disneyland Park and will include "Scary creatures , monstrous figures and artists from another world that are determined to haunt your nights for eternity." (rough translation from the French press release). They are strongly discouraging people from bringing younger children to this party. The rest of the parties sound about the same as previous years with slight changes to some of the shows possible. It does sound like some of the normal day time Halloween shows will also be receiving some changes (and one, Witches Dancing Spells, may either be removed or replaced). We will be there for both the Terrorific Night and the main Halloween Night party so expect lots of pictures and details from Halloween at DLP here!
