The Monthly Theme Park Thread Spreads the Love

January 24, 2020 strumpterfrabble

As part of last month’s year-concluding Theme Park Thread, I mentioned that I’d like to talk more about non-Disney parks going forward, but that I sometimes had trouble getting quite as excited about Universal Studios and the like as I … Continue reading The Monthly Theme Park Thread Spreads the Love

The Clearly-Not-Monthly Theme Park Thread Closes Out the Year

December 27, 2019 strumpterfrabble

The increasingly inaccurately named Monthly Theme Park thread is the place to go for the discussion of all things theme- and amusement park! To my knowledge, two major developments have happened in the world of theme parks since we last … Continue reading The Clearly-Not-Monthly Theme Park Thread Closes Out the Year

The Monthly Theme Park Thread is Getting Spooky

October 11, 2019 strumpterfrabble

October (or rather, the fall) is one of my favorite times to visit theme parks. During September at Disneyland (my favorite park) crowds are relatively low — at least compared to the summer and Christmas rushes it’s situated between — … Continue reading The Monthly Theme Park Thread is Getting Spooky

The Monthly Theme Park Thread Has Been… Dying… To Have You

August 9, 2019 strumpterfrabble

Today marks the 50th anniversary of my all-time favorite theme park attraction, Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion. The ride had an extremely tumultuous development history, spanning two decades, three ride systems, and dozens of conflicting creative visions. Even when it did finally … Continue reading The Monthly Theme Park Thread Has Been… Dying… To Have You

The Monthly Theme Park Thread Is On An Emotional Not-Quite-Roller Coaster

July 12, 2019 strumpterfrabble

All the way in the back of Disney’s California Adventure park in Anaheim CA — a solid ten-minute walk from the main entrance — sits an area that was once known as Paradise Pier. This land, located in a California-themed … Continue reading The Monthly Theme Park Thread Is On An Emotional Not-Quite-Roller Coaster

The Monthly Theme Park Thread Jets Off to a Galaxy Far Far Away

June 14, 2019 strumpterfrabble

At the very end of last month, on May 31, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opened in Disneyland park in California! This 14-acre land recreates — or rather, creates, for the first time — a location known as Black Spire Outpost, a small … Continue reading The Monthly Theme Park Thread Jets Off to a Galaxy Far Far Away

The Monthly Theme Park Thread Loves The Bird

May 17, 2019 strumpterfrabble

Hey, look! It’s Orange Bird! You love Orange Bird! What’s that? You say you don’t love Orange Bird? You say you don’t even know who Orange Bird is? That’s okay! That can be easily remedied! This is Orange Bird! He was … Continue reading The Monthly Theme Park Thread Loves The Bird

The Monthly Theme Park Thread Doesn’t Know What It Expected

April 12, 2019 strumpterfrabble

Last month, we gave some well-deserved attention to Star Wars’ upcoming presence in the Disney Parks. But let’s not forget that Walt Disney Imagineering has another long term, synergistic project in the works. It’s one that’s still being discussed, just… … Continue reading The Monthly Theme Park Thread Doesn’t Know What It Expected

The Monthly Theme Park Thread May Or May Not Be Behind Schedule

March 29, 2019 strumpterfrabble

There was big news in the theme park world this month. Big enough, in fact, that it very nearly transcends the category of ‘theme park news’ and becomes simply ‘news.’ Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is coming, and it will be … Continue reading The Monthly Theme Park Thread May Or May Not Be Behind Schedule
