I'm missing exactly what's new and exciting about this "coolest summer ever."

Enough with the Frozen already. Doesn't Disney realize they had ANOTHER hit movie just win an Oscar?

I loved Big Hero 6, but Baymax does not look good in a princess gown and tiara.

We arrive on the 23rd. Is this overnight event worth bumping our trip up one day for? We drive so we wouldn't arrive to the parks until after 5 pm on the 22nd. We would really just be taking advantage of the over night activities?

We have been to MK for the 24 hour event before. Bad, bad idea to do it during Memorial Day weekend.

Main Street was so packed that we could not move, literally.

You would think that they learn from past mistakes, but it looks like that is not the case.

Thats kinda of what I figured. I'm going to leave my plans like they are.
