I’m glad to see this return. In fact, I’d like if more rides got special Christmas makeovers.

Preview starting September 29th on tablets, with the actual debut on Disney XD on October 3.
→ Ranking the Beer Available at Epcot
Important information from Scott Wurzel over at TouringPlans.
→ Review of the Good Morning Breakfast with Goofy & His Pals at Four Seasons Resort Orlando
Mickey looks adorable in his little sweater vest. Of course, I am not sure I am ever going to want to spend $750 a night for a room at this hotel.
→ Using Google Glass at Walt Disney World
I am not particularly interested in Google Glass, but this article on TouringPlans is kind of interesting. I never really thought about Google Glass would play at Disney World.
→ Thoughts on the newly released ACC Basketball Schedule
Only two ACC teams avoid facing any of the league’s presumed top five teams twice: Florida State and Clemson. Both drew Duke, North Carolina, Louisville, Virginia and Syracuse only once apiece, a notable advantage considering it’s hard to imagine any of those programs being easy to beat this season. Florida State gets improved Miami, mid-tier Pittsburgh, Clemson and Virginia Tech twice next season. Clemson draws Notre Dame, NC State, Georgia Tech and Florida State.
So, at least Clemson has that going for it.
→ NFL wants Super Bowl halftime acts to pay for the privilege of ‘exposure’
(1) I think this is ridiculous.
(2) The NFL better enjoy this while it can, because football as we know it is not long of this world.
→ WWE.com Reports Dean Ambrose Is ‘Missing’ And ‘Significantly Injured’
This was such a great way to write Ambrose off television while he filmed his movie. I also love the “Ambrose is missing” angle. It is completely in line with his “lunatic fringe” personality.
→ Site preparation underway at Flamingo Crossings for new Marriott hotels
I would be all over a Marriott Springhill Suites just outside the Walt Disney World grounds.
→ 101 Dogs Walk the Green Carpet at First-Ever Disney Side Dog’s Day at Magic Kingdom Park
I am not even a huge dog person and I wish that I could have been there for this.
→ Jets release rookie QB Tajh Boyd
Bummer. I like Tajh so much I was even going to cheer for him if he was on the J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets.
→ Batista Reenacted The Dancing Groot Scene From Guardians Of The Galaxy, And It’s Predictably Delightful
Speaking of Grooting…
→ Casting Change On Arrow As Rila Fukushima Joins The Show as Katana
I was looking forward to seeing Devon Aoki, but I think Rila Fukushimra is going to be just as good in this role.
→ 2014 College Football Week 1 TV Schedule
I am so ready for a full day of college football tomorrow.
→ Laughter has been banned from DC movies
I hope that this rumor about DC movies is simply an off-hand comment getting out of control. I want my superhero movies to have some degree of levity.
→ Shakin the Southland Previews Clemson vs. Georgia Game Preview
I fear their prediction of a Georgia win is going to be correct, but I really hope they are wrong.
→ Epcot Planning Live Entertainment Changes in September
This is a huge bummer. I loved Off Kilter. I can understand that Disney wants to update its entertainment offerings, but I wish there was some way they could keep Off Kilter playing a few days a week.
