Not that anyone cares, but Toy Story Mania switched over last weekend with a couple of new elements related to the upcoming Toy Story 3 movie. Only one game is completely changed - what was Bo Peep's balloon pop is now
Dino Balloons.

Disney Dining is taking reservations for reserved seating for World of Color. You don't have to pay anything up front. You reserve a seating at Trattoria or Ariel's and after you pay you receive a ticket for the seating area.

Also, Silly Symphony Swings opened today.

That's awesome. I was hoping that the games would change. It seemed like a simple thing to do. Cool!

Does SSS have the music that went with the cartoon, I wonder?

That's not a bad way to go for reserved seating. People are likely to be paying for dinner, so it doesn't require a huge premium to get into the reserved seating, just some forethought.

Right. Details on package pricing and food options here. Adults are about $40/person and the menus are fixed price.

I wonder where the seats will be.

At DLR the Fantasmic reserved seating is a bit off to the side but as long as you sign in early, it's not bad at all.

At WDW the Fantasmic reserved seating is in the corner section and I was not very impressed with the view.

OKay, I take it back, that is about a 2-3x premium over a normal dinner cost. But still better than having to pay for dessert when you may not have otherwise wanted dessert. Much greater odds of people wanting dinner in the first place.

Is there a weight limit?

Wonder if the concierge at the Disneyland Hotel will be able to snag some "tickets" to see WoC. Hmmm. (Of course, I'm not gonna be available to see it either of the nights of my stay, but still - a perk's a perk.)

I'm pretty sure the physical part of the ride is the same as before, so I'm sure it hasn't changed. But I don't know if it had a limit before....

As long as you are willing to, I guess, but expect at least an hour.
