Ralf en Michiel zijn terug in de D-Tales studio - na vier afleveringen over onze reis door Azië is het hoog tijd de nieuwtjes van de laatste tijd door te nemen. Wat staat er te gebeuren in Disneyland Paris, hoe viert Disneyland Anaheim de 70e verjaardag en: kun je je binnenkort in Orlando weer echt volledig laten onderdompelen in de Disney-bubbel? We bespreken het allemaal en blikken ook met verse indrukken terug op Shanghai, Hong Kong en Tokyo. 00:00 Introductie en welkom terug
It's a trip report from the smallest of the Disney castle parks around the world, and our 3rd of the year, Hong Kong Disneyland. Find out what it's like to walk down Main Street USA for the first time AGAIN, and why this park gives that old school Disney feel. Plus, their new Frozen Land, an attraction that's exclusive to this park, and an explosive ending to Jungle Cruise! Find out also about what else to do in Hong Kong, and getting to and from the park. We also have all the latest from Walt Disney World, including dates on two new shows for Hollywood Studios, a classic attraction that's closing for an update, plus how SIngle Rider has just got better.
Even though modelled largely to the Anaheim original, this is not just a Disneyland-copy. There are aspect that make the Hong Kong park truly unique. Enough to go a bit into ‘nerd-mode' and to go deeper into the analysis of this impressive place. Masterplanning; IP's; Mini-lands; animatronics; perspective-shift and many more industry terms will be discussed in this episode. We dive into the very details of theme park development, because there is so much to talk about. This park has some incredible quality standouts, but there are also definitely points of criticism. Are those weighing enough to knock down our appreciation and rating? More importantly, was it still understandable or did we take it too far with industry details?

We vervolgen onze D-Tales door Azië met een bezoek aan het kleinste kasteelpark ter wereld: Hong Kong Disneyland! Toen dit park in 2005 opende was er veel kritiek op hoe weinig attracties er waren - dit park was net als Walt Disney Studios en Disney's California Adventure een 'doe-maar-goedkoop'-park onder de laatste jaren van Michael Eisner. Het park heeft inmiddels flink bijgebouwd, met het recent het door de Nederlandse Imagineer Michel den Dulk ontworpen World of Frozen als laatste wapenfeit. Hoe ervaren Ralf, Jorn en Michiel het park anno 2025? Schuif aan bij ons in de lobby van Disney's Explorer Lodge voor alle verhalen! 00:00 Introductie
It opened as the smallest Disney park, using the original Anaheim park as the main inspiration. Often criticised for its modest setup a lack of major rides and an overall lack of originality and minimised risk. How did the park evolve to surpass that reputation? It was an attempt to seamlessly blend tradition, innovation and the Disney magic through the use of feng shui principles in its design. All uniquely set in a subtropical climate adorned by green mountains. Hong Kong Disneyland often provides a relaxed and less crowded atmosphere, allowing visitors to enjoy a more intimate experience. The park has come a long way with the necessary expansions, transforming it into a worthy theme park. The introduction of Frozen has boosted attendance and attention massively. Might it even be the perfect choice for a fulfilling one-day visit?

What secret tributes can be found in Big Grizzly Mountain to several attractions that came before it? In this episode of Distory with Kate & Kirk, we laugh our way through the creative storytelling of Hong Kong Disneyland's Big Grizzly Mountain Runaway Mine Cars. Starting with the backstory of Grizzly Gulch's resident bears (and a huge gold nugget), we then move through into the ride to find some incredible details in the queue that not only honor Chinese culture but are also a throwback to the detailed history of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad that we've been uncovering throughout this series. Kirk asks some inappropriate questions about bears, Kate laughs at his fictional niece, we learn a little about sawmills and stoves, and find some magnificent crates that hold a few nods to previously explored places. After going for a thrilling ride in an unlucky mine, we meet three curious bears, remember Marc Davis, and find a number that has reversed its meaning from the one we found in Disneyland's Big Thunder. Join us LIVE on TikTok every Friday at 5:30pm Pacific/8:30pm Eastern for more Distory!

We talk about Lewis' Collector Zone finds and Hong Kong Disneyland. May contain traces of cruffin burger.
This week, a new concept for ears is coming to the resort, Pixar Fest is in full swing, we have the details, two locations in Downtown Disney have opened, with another more up in the air, we talk about our days in the park, and more! Please support the show if you can by going to https://www.dlweekly.net/support/. Check out all of our current partners and exclusive discounts at https://www.dlweekly.net/promos. News: Fans of Mickey and Minnie ears, you will want to hear about this new item coming to Disneyland! Custom Character Headbands, which are already popular in Hong Kong Disneyland, are coming to the original Disneyland! Guests pick a headband, then choose a mini plush (or multiple), then secure the plush to the headband to wear! The Mad Hatter on Main Street and Bing Bongs in Disney California Adventure will carry the new items. – https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2024/04/wildly-popular-custom-character-headbands-coming-to-disneyland/ The Fantasyland Theater is currently home to the Pixar Pals Playtime Party for Pixar Fest. The area hosts a range of Pixar characters including characters from Onward, Luca, Elemental, Up! and more! There are also crafts, a dance party on stage, and great people watching! – https://www.micechat.com/385538-disneyland-update-the-good-the-bad-the-pixar/ Weeklyteers who remember the 50th anniversary of Disneyland might find this next Pixar Fest game familiar. The resort has disguised 50 Pizza Planet Trucks around the resort for guests to find! Guests will need to look everywhere from windows on Main Street, to the shooting gallery, and more! – Disneyland Update: The Good, The Bad & The Pixar (micechat.com) A couple other parts of Pixar Fest are receiving mixed reviews. The Better Together parade has a ton of characters and a lot of energy from the cast, but is too short at less than 15 minutes. The floats also are lackluster. Club Pixar in the Hollywood Studios Backlot features cast members inviting guests to dance along with characters. – https://www.micechat.com/385538-disneyland-update-the-good-the-bad-the-pixar/ Two of the locations in Downtown Disney are finally open! Centrico and Paseo are open to guests! MiceChat reports that Centrico was good with a lot of great choices and good ambiance. Paseo features two display kitchens where guests can see tortillas and baked goods being made, and entrees in the other. – Disneyland Update: The Good, The Bad & The Pixar (micechat.com) One of the other locations that was slated to come to Downtown Disney isn't a sure bet anymore. Rumor has it that Porto's may not come to Downtown Disney after all. No word on why, but Earl of Sandwich will probably have to move still anyway. – Disneyland Update: The Good, The Bad & The Pixar (micechat.com) SnackChat: Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month Foodie Guide 2024 – https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2024/04/disney-eats-asian-american-and-pacific-islander-heritage-month-foodie-guide-2024/ Pickle Lemonaide – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/04/30/sparkling-pickle-lemonade-is-coming-to-a-disney-park-tomorrow-and-we-arent-sure-how-we-feel-about-it/ Discussion Topic: The rest of Tage and Teresa's time at Disneyland.
