Wine Bar George to add brunch March 30th

It would take a lot of work to move and change that area. Right next to TSL you have a cast parking garage. Then around that you have all the old studio buildings now used for various other things. While yes they could move all of that I don’t see it happening anytime soon.

have no doubt, if they got permission to use the Avengers tomorrow, I'd wager there would be bulldozers firing up that afternoon!

(all kidding aside, that's still what I would put my money on for future use, it just might take a while before it happens)

I actually don’t see how this version of BatB fits well. I’d rather see a Mary Poppins themed aesthetic.

well, wasn't there a bar scene in BatB ? Don't recall one in Mary Poppins but I admit I am not a movie buff.

There's that dole whip mimosa again....

Speaking of themed bars, I'm still sad the Neverland tunnels never happened.

I am thinking more about the theme of movie and the resort not that there is a bar in the film.

PHOTOS: New Lotso Bear Hat Spotted at Toy Story Land in Disney’s Hollywood Studios

After all the bar talk my brain read this as; "New Lotso Beer Hat Spotted at Toy Story Land..."

Well, that would be one way to go, but something else entirely...

On the DVC side, Riviera info is out, and we have at least one board poster indicating they have bought already....though they are not suppose to be on sale for 2 more days.

It'll be an interesting project/sales task. I know people have griped about the new restrictions, but I think it will still sell well.

Apple TV+ is Apple's new original content service. I guess naming conventions for these services has come to "Why not take our name, and add a "+".

Points Chart, Pricing Revealed for Disney's Riviera Resort

Probably not as big a deal to folks on these threads - but a quick review of the points charts shows that the comparable is probably best looked at at Bay Lake Tower - with the Standard/Preferred at Riviera points-wise comparable to Lake view/Theme Park view at BLT. A lot of folks thought they were going to target Grand Floridian points rates, but they didn't go that high.

Truthfully, even at BLT rates those point values are a tad on the high side, but you could figure they were going to sell Riviera as "adjacent to two parks via Skyliner", as a big-time selling point. If you consider it an equivalent location to a BLT then it's probably a fair point number.

Do you think we might get some information about the new shows before the show begins?

Probably not much. They don’t use these for announcements really.

Let’s not discuss what ages are right for strollers and such here please.
