Disney week in review

Posted on 17:42 by john mical
A new iPad app, new attractions opening and some new announcements took place this past week in the Disney Universe. Here are some highlights in case you missed them:

DISNEYLAND
  • Disneyland is introducing the New Orleans Bayou Bash starting next weekend where New Orleans Square will have music, characters and street performers. It will take place 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Feb 10-12, Feb. 17-21, Feb. 24-26, March 2-4 and March 9-11.
  • The Downtown Disney area will see a remodeled LEGO Store in the spring. This month the LEGO Store will move into a temporary location while the remodeling takes place. The changes include an interactive outdoor play area and new large-scale LEGO models.
  • In addition to LEGO remodeling, the La Brea Bakery Cafe is also getting a facelift.  The full-service restaurant will remain open during the refurbishment through mid-March. The restaurant will reopen its doors with a fresh new look in April.
DISNEY WORLD
  • Habit Heroes, a new exhibit, opened at Innoventions in Epcot. People can join Will Power and Callie Stenics battle against villains like Sweet Tooth and The Snacker. There are three interactive areas including the "Control Freak" area for the remote control, resist Sweet Tooth and then make "Lead Bottom" shake his booty. You can then go online and play games at home.
  • “Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom" will open at the Magic Kingdom later this month. This interactive role-playing game takes you around the park to in attempt to stop villains. Using casting spell cards, featuring Rafiki, Rapunzel, Woozles, Mr. Toad and more than 60 other characters, guests will try to defeat Disney villains.
APPS
  • "Disneyland Explorer," a free iPad app is released. The app takes you on a photo-realitstic tour of the entire resort with a variety of activities such as creating your down water show in "World of Color;" steer a Soarin' hang glider over California; and take photos of the Yeti at the Matterhorn.
NEWS
  • Disney releases information on the 19th annual Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival. It will feature the largest ever Disney front entrance topiary with an 8-foot tall Sorcerer Mickey, according a news release from the company. The topiary in front of Spaceship Earth will stand atop a 12-foot tall floral mountain cliff where Mickey Mouse will direct shapes of broomsticks, buckets, mushrooms, hippos and other animals from the movie "Fantasia."
  • Kermit and Miss Piggy take a shot at Fox News for the network's comments about how the new Muppets film was pushing a dangerous liberal agenda. During a press conference in the United Kingdom, reporters asked the green star about this. Kermit's response: "If we had a problem with oil companies, why would we have spent the entire film in a gas-guzzling Rolls-Royce?"
  • A lost Disney song from "Lady and The Tramp" called "I'm Free as a Breeze" will be part of the Feb. 7 Blue-ray release.
