News Round Up 2018

Tokyo is getting Nintendo first set to open in 2020 I believe. Universal Orlando looks to have pushed Nintendo to its third gate.
That's what I'm referring to, Tokyo's Nintendo land is supposed to open prior to the Olympics and broke ground last year and a Mario Kart ride was announced as a big part of it. Construction should be showing on the buildings before too much longer to meet that timeframe.

First Look: Cast Members Enjoy an Early 'First-Ride' on Slinky Dog Dash!


I get this is a Disney-produced video, and really, cast members wouldn't even think of saying anything negative, but to describe anything about this coaster as "amazing?" "phenomenal?" C'mon.

Though I give kudos to the one CM who kept it real, yet still toed the company line "It was everything I was expecting." :)

Yeah, that one kind of stood out to me. lol

Though the key for that is keeping expectations in line ... I think this will be a fun family coaster with the launch parts giving it some uniqueness and just be fun ... it won't be Big Thunder or Everest or anything, so let's not complain when it isn't :D
 


That logo is disturbing looking. :scared:

Does DS really need this addition? I'm thinking no...

The logo is terrible, but I'm oddly intrigued by the concept. DS could always use more QS-type dining though I wish they'd keep it more chicken shack-ish, like Gus's Fried Chicken - just fried chicken, chicken strips, maybe a sandwich and sides.
 
Talk about working down to the wire. Pixar Pier media days start today. The Lamplight Lounge sign was installed last night. Other work is still going on right now.

Polite Pig worked for us last time with great sandwiches and chicken strips for the kids. Wife loved the "smoked and fried chicken sandwich". Me, I am a bouncing bbq brisketeer!:tigger:

Well, the do have D-Luxe, and Blaze, and the Morimoto To Go, Polite Pig, Poutine place. Just added Wine Bar George Picnic Basket ... so definitely options.

It's actually Universal Japan, and it's in Osaka. Just so no one tries to visit it in Tokyo. It would be a long walk or subway ride:) Hopefully, we will be seeing it in person in Japan in 2022.
