Fast pass: Carousel of Progress
Standby: PhilharMagic
Skip: MuppetVision 3D
Carousel wins because of the 3D glasses required for the other two.
I grew up with a love if the seasonal Peanuts specials, and couldn't wait for the next one to roll around (Thanksgiving one was always my favorite, Easter one a close second). For which set of Disney characters would you like to see a series like this done?
Toy Story characters (already have Halloween and Christmas)
Classic Disney (Mickey and the gang)
The Muppets
I've heard that the ride lines are deceptive. You made my day with the news about the preshow at MuppetVision! Also glad to hear they've made some improvements to the Boarding pass system. Glad you are having fun! |

Fast pass: Nightmare Before Christmas - prequel or sequel, I'll take either!
Standby: Treasure Planet - Ending was fairly tidy, but seems like there's a story with the dying pirate from the opening scene.
Skip: Zootopia - probably the most likely to happen.
Rate the sequels:
Return to Neverland
Lion King 1 1/2
Jungle Book 2 |

There's a Family Guy episode where Stewie is complaining that Disney "has really stopped trying. I mean look at this, Aladdin 9: Jafar Gets Glasses". Cut to scene of Jafar in the eye doctors chair, answering #1 or #2. #2 or #3.

Fast pass: Dining plan - a lot of folks say this isn't really a good deal, but it's always treated us well!

Cape May Cafe
Hollywood and Vine
Cinderella's Royal Table |

Stuff they're doing now in the parks you wouldn't mind seeing stick around:
Physical distancing in queue (not 6', and get rid of the stickers on the ground. Just letting us all have a little room instead of filling every available inch full of people)
Hand sanitizer available before and after a ride
Cleaning ride cars 2-3 times a day |
