WDI just posted this to their instagram story! What is the Society of Explorers and Adventurers planning? Changes to the Matterhorn and Big Thunder Mountain in the Spring? I guess we have to keep working on that weekly scavenger hunt to find out.

Project Hail Mary in 70mm Imax was spectacular! With Disclosure Day and the Odyssey coming later this summer, we are in for some gorgeous film prints.

I really feel we could be on the cusp of a new Space Age. And as there is newfound investment and interest, Tomorrowland becomes a place Disney might actually utilize again. Reflecting hope for a united and better tomorrow.

Main Street U.S.A. It exists in our dreams, and the dreams of Walt Disney. He made it a reality in 1955 with the opening of Disneyland. So join Kirk & Freddy as they take a step back on an idyllic new episode of Trammin' - A Disneyland Podcast! @trammin.com trammin.com

Disneyland Resort shared photos of a new Main Street, U.S.A. window honoring Lillian Disney, unveiled today during a private ceremony. The tribute, revealed on the couple's 100th wedding anniversary, continues a tradition Walt started when Disneyland opened 70 years ago.

So the Hollywood & Dine building from DCA will likely be repurposed for Pandora. Can we get an expanded Pongu Pongu as a tribute to the DCA 1.0 Don the Beachcomber? This would also replace the Hollywood Lounge. I just want more tropical cocktails in California Adventure.

California Adventure is about to gain 3 E-ticket attractions. With Avengers Infinity Defense already under construction, Coco to begin by the end of the year, and Avatar starting in 2026 California Adventure is about to become one of the best theme parks in the world.

The Optimistic Future has never been more back! Flying cars, Space-age architecture, Robots, Monorails, and Starships. This is the Tomorrowland movie we deserve.

While I would be happy with Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters receiving similar upgrades to Magic Kingdom, I have a much better idea to go along with the reimagining of Disneyland’s Tomorrowland..
020
Helmsman Freddy @helmsmanfreddy.bsky.social · 26/03/2025
This is fantastic! A happy medium between modern effects and the original practical ones. Keeping Buzz Lightyear in Tomorrowland long term, but dramatically increasing the quality of show. It does make me curious of what’s being cooked up for Disneyland’s version..

The god-tier synergy of this opening right after Epic Universe. Plus the live action film is directed by the same director as the animated films. With Gerard Butler reprising his role as Stoick.

Mysterious Island, Tokyo DisneySea This land inherited the last remnants of the ideas behind Discovery Bay, all while creating an identity all its own. It’s my theme park holy grail and I can’t wait until I see it in person

Tiana's Bayou Adventure is basically the same ride at Disneyland and Walt Disney World, and yet, somehow, I like one of them better. www.cinemablend.com/...

With Vista Parkside Market, and full bars opening with Porto’s, Arthur &Sons, Pearl’s Roadside BBQ, and the Carnaby Tavern.. Downtown Disney will have 11 bars. That doesn’t even include the 7 bars between the hotels on property at the Disneyland resort Drink around the world, eat your heart out.

Just got back from a trip to SF with Anna to celebrate our 2 year anniversary. We stopped by the capitol of tiki, Smuggler’s Cove. Some of the best drinks I’ve ever had at a tiki bar. #tiki

Raiders of the Lost Ark will always be the perfect comfort film for me. Nothing beats the magic of peak Steven Spielberg. I’ll probably put on Jaws, Close Encounters, and Jurassic park next. Working night audit gives me time for an infinite movie marathon.

Just experienced Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at night. And we had a flawless run. Every effect, animatronic, and projection working. I am so impressed with this attraction and the team behind it. Truly gorgeous.

I started with Disney in 2016 at Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage. I eventually worked the monorail from 2018-2019
Tomorrowland will always have a special place in my heart.In 2019 I joined the opening crew of Galaxy’s Edge. There I was a part of the Test & Adjust crew for Rise of the Resistance. I’m technically a THEA award winner as part of that team under Disneyland operations.
Ultimately, Galaxy’s Edge is where I would meet my wife Anna.I joined VIP Tours at Disneyland in 2023. I had the pleasure of being invited to Club 33 on numerous occasions. I’ll always look fondly on my time with Disney Special Activities. It really was the best role I had at Disneyland.  Discovery Bay
The never built land will always have a place in my imagination. 20,000 leagues under the sea, the Rocketeer, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, and Treasure Planet where all childhood favorites. Instilling a thirst for adventure I still have today. The soul of Discovery bay can be found in Discoveryland, Paris and Mysterious Island, Tokyo.

The “Summit Stomp” from Club 33. Celebrating the 65th anniversary of the Matterhorn. This collection is phenomenal! Having worked the subs and the monorail, the 59’ expansion of Disneyland will always hold a special place in my heart. #club33 #Matterhorn #Disneyland
