Peter Pan's Flight is the only inch of Disneyana I actively collect. As a child (so yes, nostalgia factor) the idea of soaring over London and Neverland and through stars (yes, the flying factor) was thrilling to me. And it still is. Not just because I loved it as a child, but because I love flying over the scenes from something that, still to this day, makes me feel whimsical and elated and creative. Far more than any other ride in any of the parks.

PeterPan is my favorite of the dark rides.
I am still disappointed with Monsters Inc. I wanted it to be an overhead rollercoaster type ride, using the closet doors sceen as the reason. I haven't watched Up, and right now, it doesn't look as if I will any time soon. |
Peter Pan is a fantastic dark ride and the flying over the sets is an amazing time for the 2-3 min. ride.
I think alot of the talk surrounding the popularity of the ride stems from the fact that whenever non-disney geeks talk about the ride, the long lines are what come up. So, I think there is a faux idea in the general population that Peter Pan is a great ride because there is always a huge line. But the geeks know that is more of a ride capacity issue. Just a thought. |
So.
How about that Nightastic stuff? I know a bunch of you were at the park on Sunday. I have a coworker who was very emotional about Dumbo's flight, saying it was adorable and realistic. |
Dumbo doesn't need a white feather to fly, just a cable! ;)
It was really adorable. I'm not a huge Dumbo (the movie - never seen it - will make me way to sad) fan, but the effect was super cool. I also uploaded and linked some video from Fantasmic of the Eels and the new Toc. Goat trick seems to work better as you get older too ;) |
Link?

BTW: just to note a worthy punny moment - Alex is right... the Peter Pan ride does have an added Hook. :D |

Caught both Nightastic and the new fireworks last night.
Win! Nightastic- I love the new Croc (though on the 11:30 show one of his eyes was not lit), and I love Flotsam and Jetsam! Yay! I love that it looks like we'll be actually seeing the new dragon, since the mist-screens aren't on durng that section. Can't wait until it's fixed! I love the new lights (though not the crowd-washing at the beginning). Gorgeous. They light up the shack now. Fireworks- didn't see Dumbo last night (or Tink, for that matter) but I love the projections onto Small World. I love that there were no crowds at SW. One of these times I'll have to brave the crush at the Hub and see what they do there, but for now I'm happy at Small World. Is Dumbo maybe not visible on the section close to the Matterhorn? Hmm.... I liked the new show. |
But did it snow at the end of the fireworks?
Oh, wait.... |
