Disneyland Resort

[DTH]

Got on Tiana's (is there really no thread around here? Huh) and I think the reviews were spot on.

Pros:
- It's GORGEOUS, easily the best looking ride in the resort. I could see a lot of proposals possibly happening on this ride.
- Animatronics are AMAZING. Again, best looking in the resort.
- The ride in itself is still a great time, Splash was well built
- The new additions to the queue are great little tidbits of world building
- There's some fun surprises in how they overlay certain scenes (the light shining in your eyes during what used to be a dark drop was very weird in a fun way)

Cons:
- The narrative is REALLY weak
- It's missing an element of danger to keep things exciting and to match the thrills/drops
- It desperately needs some antagonist of some sort.
- Not a huge fan of projections, but these parts feel minimal all together, so don't ruin any scenes necessarily
- This is obviously temporary, but you get WAY too wet. Like seriously WTF. Bring a pancho.

All in all, I miss Splash Mountain, but Tiana's will do so we get to keep the mountain. Most of my friends loved the ride but agreed the story could be a lot better. It'll definitely be something I hit most days when at the park, at least when VQ is over (which I think is unnecessary even now, btw -- it was a total walk on)

The Santa area should be fun if done like Pixar fest (I mean better then nothing happening in the theater)

wondering how the coco show will work, maybe at the five and dime show area?
I assumed the coco show would be the same spot as the Encanto show

Here is the full list with everything new and old coming back

The Resort gets like 10+ new shows during these times. I know its busy but wish we could get a handful of these smaller shows during other times of the year more.

Anyway, while tickets cost alot if you see all these shows and ride the rides...I do think you can make your 200 dollars worth it

Yeah, we bought a pair of three-day Park Hoppers with whatever we're calling Genie+ now for $520 each. It's a lot of money, but we've been doing this (going for a weekend during December) for three years now and it's honestly become a pretty welcome tradition.

Yeah, its the best time at the resort even with the crowds...just no one else is providing this much at once

Hope you guys have fun, if you see me say hey I will also be there that weekend with my wife.

(USH and sea World also do very well considering its cheaper to go to these but Disney just has so much to do during this time..they are just king for now)
