Originally Posted By trekkeruss I wouldn't kick you. I don't understand people who get bothered by it, as if it's disrespecful in some way. How? it's a theme park, not a person. Granted, some of the merchandise they are selling at WDW is pretty silly, but if someone wants to buy it (and apparently not many are) bully for them. Were they suckers for buying it? Maybe, but then we are all suckers for buying Disney, aren't we?

Originally Posted By tampabrad Hello from WDW!!! The Hapiest Celebration on Earth is the the celebration of 50 years of Disney Theme Parks, as well as the 50th of DL. All 11 Disney Parks around the world are part of the celebration. Here in Florida the big "thing" is that we got new attractions in each of our parks. Sorin from DCA (Epcot), Cinderellabration from Tokyo Magic Kingdom), Lights Motors Action from Paris (Disney Studios), and a visit from Lucky and Expedition Everest (DAK) Being from FL, I haven't seen any of your adverts, but the ones here actually have Walt giving his welcome speech overlapped onto Main St USA and Cinderellas Castle. Also, on the DL website, much of the Space Mountain Footage is from Mission: Space.
