  • Household Staff

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    I’ve seen these characters in parades but never greeting guests. I wonder why? I know that they can’t interact with people very much due to the constraints of the costumes but I’m sure lots of people would get a kick out of taking pictures with a fussy clock or a suave candlestick.Read more

  • There’s Something There

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    Due to time constraints this show obviously can’t show every scene from the movie but, still, it’s a big jump that right after the Be Our Guest song Belle and the Beast are immediately shown as being a couple. So much of the movie focused on their courtship but not here, I guess.Read more

  • The Fight

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    Of course, the household staff fight back against the townspeople and end up beating them all. There’s been no sign of Gaston though. What devilry has he been up to? What indeed?

  • Always Look Up

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    While I normally avoid roller coasters, I usually do enjoy the ones at the Disney Parks. There’s so much to look at and everything is so immersive that it really takes you to another world. Compared to the queue, the ride itself is almost secondary.Read more

  • This is It!

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    I made it up to the ride’s boarding area and I’m getting very nervous. It’s not like that fun sort of nervousness like I felt at the Tower of Terror, this is the fear type of nervousness. I’m starting to wonder if I really want to do this. This is one of those roller coasters that start off by shooting off like a rocket. Should I really go through with this?Read more

  • The Aftermath

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    I just finished riding the Rock n’ Roller Coaster and, although I made it, I’m feeling a bit shaky. I’m glad that I did it but would I ride it again? I really don’t think so.

  • Let’s Move On

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    While I’m sure that this roller coaster is very tame when compared to what they have at Six Flags or Knott’s Berry Farm, it was just a bit too much for me. I didn’t know about, or care for, the loops on this ride. That wasn’t a good surprise. Well, at least now I can check this attraction off of my Disney To Do list!Read more

  • The Tower of Terror

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    With one last look back at the Hollywood Tower of Terror, I’m thinking that I’ve seen and done everything there is in this section of Disney’s Hollywood Studios and I’m ready to see more of the park.
    I’m glad that I went with the black and white processing for this shot. It gives it that old-time Universal horror movies feel.

  • Beverly Sunset

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    The Beverly Sunset is a shop that seems to change it’s theme quite often. Right now, it’s Villains in Vogue, a store devoted to all of Disney’s bad guys along with a lot of seasonal Halloween merchandise.Read more

  • Gremlins!

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    A lot of the things in this shop were amazing, like this figure from the movie Gremlins. I’m thinking that this was probably a prop that was actually used in the film. I’m very impressed with this store!Read more

  • The Mummy

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    The Halloween decorations and items for sale go perfectly with this villains store! I did a little extra processing on this mummy display to make it look a bit more creepy.

  • Maleficent

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    Maleficent is the self-proclaimed "Mistress of All Evil", who, after not being invited to a royal christening, curses the infant Princess Aurora to prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and die before the sun sets on her sixteenth birthday. The character is Disney's adaptation of the wicked fairy godmother from the original French fairy tale.
    Here at the Villains in Vogue shop she’s forever watching out the window for unwary guests passing by.

  • Jafar

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    Jafar, in his more sinister serpent form, is one of this stores big displays. I really like these sort of shops, with specialty items and original themes. It’s so much better than just being a generalized souvenir shop. That’s far too common in the Disney parks.Read more

  • Audition Today!

    October 21, 2013 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 90 °F

    This was the first thing that I came to on the other side of the park. I’ve never seen this before so I’m going to give it a try. I’m trying for as many new experiences on this trip as I can get!
