Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort “Top of the World” Lounge and Fireworks Viewing – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

We were invited to the Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort by friends to enjoy an evening at the Top of the World Lounge.  I’d spent some time last year taking photos and video of the resort prior to opening, but had not yet been inside. In the lobby, there is an area set up for a cast member to assist guests who want to go up to the lounge and observation deck (below, right).

Summer Nightastic at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Twilight Zone Tower of Terror Re-Imagined, Rock ‘N’ Glow Dance Party – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

Summer Nightastic is in full swing, we already have photos and video from the Main Street Electrical Parade and the Summer Nightastic! Fireworks Show! We went to the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror on Sunday night to see what was new – and after we rode, we were told it wasn’t quite finished. It is finished now, and it includes a new drop sequence for Summer Nightastic, and you’ll see your photo just before you drop and at the end of the ride before the doors open again. There is also some old-time (40’s) music before the drop, and a star field where the 5th dimension normally is. At night, the Hollywood Tower glows green from the shafts (below left and right).

Interactive Talking C-3PO Thrills Guests At Star Wars Weekends, Weekend 2 Recap – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

Star Wars Weekends was another hit this week, and C-3PO has been the biggest draw of all! (below, left and right). Crowds have followed him anytime he’s left his meet-and-greet spot, and lines have been long today to meet him. He was in the Celebrity Welcome as well (below, left), standing next to Tom Kane.

Star Wars Weekends, Week 2: Interactive Talking C-3PO, Guests: Matthew Wood, Lorne Peterson and Tom Kane – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

We were very surprised yesterday at Star Wars Weekends to see an interactive talking C3PO in the park! While waiting for the Hyperspace Hoopla, we heard the crowd get a little louder – we turned around, and C3PO was walking by (below left and right). He is fully interactive, in the way that the Mickey Mouse was in a test at Disneyland.

Star Wars Weekends 2010 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios: Weekend #1 Recap Plus Toy Story Midway Mania Update – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

This is my second Star Wars Weekends update (read about opening day here), I really enjoyed Sunday even more than Friday – the actors and characters seemed a lot more loose and relaxed. We were able to get there early enough to see the Stormtroopers at the entrance (below, left). The Friday “Legends of the ForceMotorcade had featured the new R2-MK astromech, but that was a one-time event for 2010. Jedi Mickey led the parade as always (below, right).
