  1. Firework/Your Song ~ sung by the cast of Broadway's MOULIN ROUGE: The Musical. The whole soundtrack rawks!
  2. I forgot to throw in "the extra Mickey," here in this thread. Nonetheless.... As the recent Spiderguy film showed, Marvel Multi-verse Universes do gain benefits. See: The Movie, duh. So here is my TDR candy case Multi-Verse Universe shot, Mr. M. Mouse Size, of course. ... And on a vast TokyoDisney ..... uh ..... Sea of Duckies!
  3. .... (Continuing on ...) And since there were 3 Spiderguys in A-particular-film-that-did-NOT-get-Oscar-nominated ... <grrr> Ooops. Forgot that SPOILER ALERT thing ....
  4. Just got these from Tokyo Disney Resort via/e-Bay. Decided to pose them together, and immediately thought... it's .... A Marvel Multi-Verse Encounter .... .... On a vast sea of duckies .....
  5. ^ Looks awesome, Garet! Tokyo Disney Resort, besides offering those insanely LARGE popcorn buckets most of the gp go nuts for, including in the USA (See; WDW, Figment), they also thankfully offer a (what's called a) SNACK CASE line, which is for easier snacks to carry, like M&Ms, jelly beans, etc. And certainly easier to display around my home, lol. These two arrived today, and I figured out a rather fiendishly clever place to display them. Bwa - ah - ahhhhh. This one, you found in Tokyo DisneySea. And this one could be found in Tokyo Disneyland. Put them together and ....... ...... it's A Marvel Multi-Verse Encounter! On a sea of duckies!
  6. ^^ With the new ending (7 attached mini floats) to the Electrical Parade, I'm sure that "some fans" will be livid that the "To Honor America" float, which traditionally ended the parade, is being replaced, at this time. Even if they bring it back into the parade later on, people will still bitch about the "THA" float being put "on hiatus." By the way, I do love all the mini floats they've created, especially that all of them are honoring Mary Blair's iconic IAsW designs/style.
  7. The posters are now up, all over New York City and Broadway! Wish I could be there to see it. <sighs> Hopefully, an eventual Cast CD will happen. Photo from the net. Thanks, whoever took this!
  8. ^ Maybe this is the start of their renovations for the future expansion? Or, it's for several brand new rides to replace the removed ones in that space? It also looks like the kids' train ride is gone too, including the station. What I can see from this angle. And I just noticed the Carousel has been moved, too, from it's original northern spot. Closer to The Beast. Thanks for the photo. Hmmm. Guess we "stay tuned" till then. EDIT to add: David just told me, there had been a big fire on the PNE grounds, on Sunday. The fire was not near Coaster, but involved "one of the buildings" there. Hmmm. Found a link to the story : https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/pne-overnight-fire
  9. The Canadian truckers' blockades are stupid and useless, for what they've done already. Which includes hasseling a Food Bank for free food, something they should have never done. One of them quoted, said this was a Big Deal and not a minority that is unhappy with the vaccine mandates. Fuck them. It IS a minority of truckers, not to mention people there who aren't truckers, causing additional hassels. Get your shots for C's sake. Your life is not being totally taken over by The Government. Idiots.
  10. Two 'celebrity' couples I want to acknowledge for their determination and love for each other, outlasting whatever anybody thinks, blah, blah. First up, Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn, who have shown that a 'piece of paper' doesn't mean you can't love the one you love. (Do I see lyrics here?) Then, Carl Dean and Dolly Parton have just celebrated their anniversary .... since being married in 1966! A wonderful couple from what I see of them. Happy Anniversary to You Both!
  11. My current comix reads, are ...... "Harry Pothead & The Marijuana Stone" Issues #1 thru #5. <exhales> EDIT: Just checked and it seems there is now an Issue #6 and #7 of the series!
  12. Last Wednesday I did my Once-A-Month 'Thing', which was having something non-pizza, then ordering a pizza for take out, later on. I had the next salad offered, along with two meatballs for protein. What I got was A LOT OF greens. And my meat balls. But I managed to take my time and eat ALL of it all. And later on, picked up a white base-sausage-rapini pizza. Still great, even eaten at home! Still cold outside. But no snow, knock wood. Rucola con Limone was my salad choice. And the 'crispy prosciutto' was added on. What I got. A LOT OF ARUGULA, hmm? Red onion in there too, a nice vinagarette.... and the meat balls. Oh yeah ..... and all of that crispy prosciutto on it, too. My 7:30pm pick up order. So good and yummy.
  13. Stir It Up ~ Bob Marley
  14. ^ Have a great time at both! I'm hoping both Cirque du Soleil's re-imagining of ALEGRIA, and the upcoming tour of HAMILTON will reach us in late ^ April and late May (for Ham). This was our very first Cirque show, back in ...... 2003! And our top seats were ..... $65 each, back then!
  15. Creating a coconut curry chicken dish, tonight. Here's hoping ...... EDIT to add: It turned out awesome! I definitely want to do this recipe again, soon.
  16. Great! I asked, because when TPR was there in 2014, I had the good fortune to run into the actual owner of Power Park and his father, who was there for a visit, just after I had walked through the village. That's when they told me of the history of it all, which was really cool to find out. And a definite great memory of visiting that park,.
  17. I thought the "hatching eggs" for photo ops was pretty cute. Looks like you guys had a great visit there! Thanks for sharing it all. And I am thoroughly sad that I never had any bounce houses in my childhood!
  18. It looks like, at this point in time, the PNE will be going ahead (we hope), this late summer. Woo hoo! Nothing about Playland's 2022 season happening, though. Hopefully, that will be announced, soon. https://www.pne.ca/fair-vendors/ All the info. for this is available at the link.
  19. Here's the pizzas I had in the past couple of weeks, "across the street." All as good as ever. And this Wed. I am repeating my "salad & meat balls" order, w/different salad. And ordering a pickup pizza for later in the evening. It's all good. My 'casual place setting', lol. A repeat of their special "woodcutter's pizza". Or (as it's called) the boscaiola Pizza. Awesome repeat. And I saved a piece for David. This week, I noticed something 'interesting' in the beverages menu. "dat juice, would crush" ..... ???? I mean what does all that mean? I must ask, next visit. Double Pepperoni with Mushrooms added. All nice and chewy with the chile oil.
  20. ^ Those were three of my favourite parks, on past TPR Scandinavian tours ('09 + '14). Power Park I especially enjoyed, truth! Not as busy there when we were there, with everything open and operating for us. Thanks for your TRs and views of where you visited in Finland! * Forgot to ask! Was the all-wooden 'village' still in back of Power Park? It was for a kids' fantasy movie and they kept the set there, afterwards. * And the Take-Off I remember riding there in Sarkanniemi Park, was pretty intense. At least for my "tender age" lol. Taken 6-26-2014. Behind Thunderbird.
  21. A quick question to those who might know... Which (mainly) indoor attraction has the most water in it? Examples: Pirates~Caribbean / Splash Mountain / Small World .... Just curious of me.
  22. .... and .... THIS JUST IN! There was another revival of Sondheim's ASSASSINS recently. And now Broadway Records is releasing the third (along with the original 1991, and the TONY-winning first revival in 2004) cast recording of this musical. Produced Off-Broadway this version had an amazing fist rate cast... More info can be had here https://www.broadwayrecords.com/offbroadway/assassins-the-2022-off-broadway-cast-recording-cd Physical Release on April 15. Digital Release on March 18.
  23. Lyrics ~ "I got hungry eyes..." Sounds intriguing.
  24. Isn't It Ironic ~ Alanis Morissette
