1. Where will the houses be?
2. After a close 2nd look at the expansion, they realized it was focus too much towards girls. So they took out cinderella, aurora (boo), and the fairies. Instead they decided to add the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, a new type of roller coaster with swinging mine cars.
3. I can't believe this news was 2 1/2 years ago. Seems like just yesterday, and now they're so close to finishing parts of it!
4. They're hinting that The Little Mermaid ride's queue in WDW will rival all other queues (even its sister ride in DCA). They compared the level of immersion to the Indiana Jones ride in DL.
5. OH FUCK DISNEYLAND'S EXPANSION, WDW MAGIC KINGDOM EXPANSION IS WAY BETTER THEN DUMB CARS LAND
6. will this be done by september? I plan on going for my 21st birthday and bringing along my 6 year old niece and I know she would love to experience all the new princess adventures
7. What did I heard at 2:56? DCA doesn't have an E-ticket on that ride, and they're putting this e-tiat MK
8. "We are nearly DOUBLING the size of fantasyland..." "WOOOOO!" "...to include more of your favorite princesses!" "ohhhhhh........" LOL 0:30
9. oh cool cinderella gets her cottage and a castle and princess tiana gets a boat. and um excuse me what about mulan and Pocohontas?! 
10. it's Universal that is trying to keep up with Disney with the wizarding world... Honestly lets all think about this... The sun never sets on Disney, they have Disney Land Paris, Disney Sea, Hong Kong, DisneyLand Cali. and Walt Disney World! They have princess, pirates, star wars aka Lucas films, Avatar... Not only that but they care, you go into a Disney park and they have nothing but convince in mind for their guest. they pay close attention to detail so you can really feel like you are there
11. We like the new opening of 4 new value resort hotels and atlast there is a kitchen and can sleep 6 ppl rather than go to a deluxe resort to accomodate more ppl but anyway it doesnt matter if your a member of the disney vacation club.but hey Im just saving points rather than milking it all out in expensive hotels.
12. I was at Disney last night and discovered that Mickey and Minnie's houses are going to be moved towards the front of the park. I'm so excited to see Ariel's castle, seeing as she is my favorite Disney princess, but I wish they could do a little more with Alice in Wonderland! That's my favorite old Disney movie. (:
13. along with Jasmine you can't forget the newer princesses like Tiana and Rapunzel. I myself would love to see this expansion!! Going to Disney world in march but it surely will not be done by then :( I would also love to see a kingdom of hearts section in the park!
14. I went to Disney World a couple weeks ago and I saw a poster of the new Fantasyland..... it had a GINORMOUS roller coaster they didn't explain here....
15. DisneyLAND's expansion was Cars Land and Ariel's Undersea Adventure. 
16. Aren't they doing this in Cali 2??
17. Hey wat about Jasmine she is the best princess.. plus her castle rocks
18. okay. now wheres our kingdom hearts section.
19. why cant they do this to disneyland california
20. Me and my family went in september and all of the fantasy land was all gone, it was our favourite part in magic kingdom and, we really like mickey and minnies house, which we was sad about, but we are might be going again for the sixth time. When will all the reconstruction be finished ? So we know the right time to go back that's all
21. i went to Disney World in October, i saw where they were building the new Fantasyland and it looked pretty cool! all i could see was a tall (not built yet) mountain thing and a castle of some sort. I bet if we rode Dumbo, we would have been able to see over the wall! Unfortunately, we never got to :'( the lines were too long. (70 minute wait for Peter Pan!)
22. I'm wondering if this is going to be opened by March 2013 or August 2012?
23. HAHAH yeah, If universal can produce some more things like the wizarding world and expand their parks and add more hotels then they will be competing with Disney. Ive been to Florida four times, ive just got back in fact. Me and my family had never done a walt disney world park, this time we decided we would do Hollywood studios. To be honest i thought universal studios was better :p The theming at universal is much much better.
24. Yes it is true. It was only built to be temporary. Only the Goofy ride rollercoaster will stay but it will be a little re-themed.
