Should Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge have a more fluid timeline? – DePaoli on DeParks

The Walt Disney Company has mentioned over and over again (and seems proud of the fact) that when guests are surveyed, character interactions in the parks are always among the top-rated aspects of a Disney vacation. Whether it’s seeing your favorite characters in a parade, show or for a meet and greet, this is always a delight for many Disney fans. That’s why it’s so baffling when we hear of Disney projects where classic characters won’t be found. (I’m looking at you early-years Epcot and Disney California Adventure.)

If the Osborne Lights came back, where could they go? – DePaoli on DeParks

The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights at Disney’s Hollywood Studios was awesome in the truest sense of the word. Even if you weren’t a particular fan of what some may consider over-the-top tackiness, I’m sure you would still be in awe at the scale of this enormous holiday light display. Sadly, we all had to say goodbye to it back in 2015 to make way for Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. But what if the lights were brought back to the Disney Parks in a different location? Where might they be displayed?

More Thanksgiving in the parks, please – DePaoli on DeParks

I love Thanksgiving. I know a lot of people simply feel like it’s just the holiday stuck in between Halloween and Christmas, but I love it and I wish the Disney Parks did more to celebrate this holiday.
