When Tower of Terror opened in Paris they did an amazing building projection show.

I have to say that the building projections are very nice, and vibrant. I just think when it gets to the photos, it looks like somebody's screensaver.... Also, why do we want to watch people having "Disney memories" while we're standing in the middle of a Disney park, where we're supposed to be making memories of our own? So, I'm next to It's a Small world, where I could take a ride and enjoy myself, but wait, let me stand here and watch some random family's pictures of their ride instead!

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Me too. Ariel, Aurora, Belle, Jane, Megara, Snow White, Cinderella and Jessica Rabbit wish for guests to share with them in their new meet, greet and grope. And for the ladies or alternative gentlemen, Tarzan and Hercules are standing by. When interviewed, Stags (stag party) said "We find our guest feedback is very important to us. WE know that our guests lover interacting with the characters, and at the same time, many letters have been pouring in disappointed by the closure of Pleasure Island. As Walt Disney once said, our resorts will never be completed as long as their is imagination in the world."

Making mamories, Making Mamories, taking picture of, beautiful Mamories.

And so it's a place I'll visit once or twice a year with free tickets. Guest photos projected on the castle? Sounds as dumb as painting the castle to look like a birthday cake.

Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer I actually don't mind the idea of the promotion, I think it's a good way to use nostalgia... ..because the parks suck now a days. ;-) Also excited to see the projections on CCastle.
