Much like the 20th don't expect anything on the scale of the 15th. That said I'd rather OLC concentrate on doing a small roster of entertainment than have to endure temporary/seasonal shows like Gift of Dreams and Remember again. The parade is pretty spectacular though and has a very clever concept. Can't wait to reveal it all later in the year! :-p

The 20th totally underwhelmed me except for the parade. I wasn't surprised they had to resort to big giveaways to get people through the doors. It just didn't have the feeling of the 15th. TDS' 5th also did little for me except for Mythica (but I'm bias on that front). It all felt like too many little things (all those largely awful regional shows in each land) and two terrible concepts in Big Band Beat and Over the Waves. It lacked any big impact until Tower came along.

In addition to what you mentioned already, I'm looking forward to the decorations, merchandise, shows and entertainment, special meals, promitional giveaways, and on and on. Also, depending on when you last visited, you might not have seen the new Dreamlights, POC, ToT, Sindbad make-over, etc.

The menu's,merchadise,decorations etc will be fun to look at and try and possibly even buy but you get that sort of stuff all year round for the various events and that. The only thing thats got me the least bit excited is the new parade which I may just sit out and wait until after the Anniversary when the Monsters inc opens.

Besides, all of your hysterias aside, I am willing to bet my sweet rounded buns you will be there bright and early on April 15th, 2008. Who are you kidding?

Must admit that the 20th logo and the stuff that went with it has been my favourite to date anywhere. I really liked the design. I must admit I can't remember if we actually won the lottery watch or if we were given it. I know a very good friend gave me the Tinker Bell 20th silver watch (maybe that was the one that was part of the sweepstakes). I definitely won the pin set at least once. My favourite was the bronze Mickey that we bought though. Such a beautiful pose and a pretty low LE if I recall. And yes...I will be there April 15. There isn't much in doubt about that.

(and that "carnivale" music is SO catchy, and a fun parade, and the castle show...ahh, the memories!! GREAT stuff!) They should just do that one over and over (every 5 years). :D p.s. I'm surprised you liked the 20th anniversary parade, Lee. I kinda thought it sucked, personally.
