What is that "cheesy" Disney detail that you love so much?

[Simba's Mom]

When you're boarding Peter Pan's Flight and the cast member "sprinkles" you with pixie dust, then snaps their finger to lower the safety bar. Such a cool touch that adds a little something extra to the ride.

No fair! No one's ever done that for us. Probably because we're two adults, they figure we're too "grown-up" for that, but sounds like I'd love it. Maybe we'll just have to bring our DGDs next time to see if it happens.

Just look at them with a ridiculous amount of excitement! They might get the hint that you are waiting for something magical!

We love reading all of the tombstones while waiting at the Haunted Mansion.

Exactly what I was going to say! They're awesome!
Love to homage paid to Mr Toad in the pet graveyard.
And Rosie the Pig...she bought the farm haha

When they say "Welcome Home."

This!!!

when you're on the people mover, passing monster inc laugh floor and hear Roz say "YEAH YEAH YEAH KEEP IT MOVING"

this thread has me smiling from ear to ear. i'm about to cry...7 more weeks!

 

[TI double-GUH ER]

Oh thank you for this thread! You are my kind of people!
I love all the cheesy details- I can't choose just one and everyone has listed some of my favorite things- but I have to say all the songs are what get me. I tear up at several (like the song in American Adventure), and just plain dance along to others (hello Tiki Room!)
My enthusiasm isn't exactly shared by DH though, so it's nice to know that I'm not alone!!!

Music in the park gets me all the time.
But if I had to pick one, it's Carosel of Progress.
"It's a great big beautiful tomorrow..."
Nothing instantly transports me back to my childhood faster than that. Nothing!

I just love all the cheesy jokes on the Country Bears. Big Al's: There's...............Blooooood ...........on the......................sadddllllleeee! Gets me every time. Also the back and forth of the deer and moose heads on the wall.
I love the jokes in the Muppets too!
Something about those cheesy jokes that crack me up and make me feel "all Disney and fuzzy inside"

When "talking" Mickey in Town Square Theater tells me, "I'm so glad you're here!" Omg I smile ear to ear

 

[DVCcurious]

At 10pm or so we go to Storybook Treats and buy a sundae. Then we walk back to Gaston's Tavern to eat it.

There's nobody there. We sit and eat ice cream listening to the instrumental Beauty and the Beast music and hearing the mine train coming out of the tunnel every couple of minutes.

I love everything about it! My family (16 ds, twin 17 dd,) rolls their eyes when their 54 yo mother starts skipping in the park.

I haven't gotten to meet the talking Mickey yet! I need to do this...but I might cry!

We love reading all of the tombstones while waiting at the Haunted Mansion.

These tombstones are one of my favorites, also. I use pictures of the tombstones when I teach my students the difference in epitaphs, epigraphs, and epithets. I give them a paper with a picture of a blank tombstone and they make up their own epitaphs. The Disney ones can inspire the students to create some pretty creative ones.

The themed soundtracks on the buses! I don't know quite why but there's something about hearing The Mickey Mouse theme pulling up to MK or Time Warp on the bus back to POP. I'm actually disappointed when the buses don't have anything playing.

Yes! What a great detail. I find that the Pop buses and the AKL buses seem to be some of the best about playing theme music. I also notice when no music is playing. One night a few weeks ago I was riding on a bus back to Pop after midnight and it was packed with exhausted guests. The bus was playing Bohemian Rhapsody and several of us started singing along. Really made what could have been an unpleasant trip actually fun. Reminded me of that commercial where the guy is singing Sweet Caroline while he was sitting in traffic and another driver joined him. "A happy driver is a safer driver" or something like that. At Disney, a bus full of singing guests is a bus full of happy guests.

What?!?! This needs to be a must do on your next trip!! It is one of my favorite things in the Magic Kingdom.. it is so cool to actually get to "talk" to Mickey

 

[glassslippergirl]

The Mickey heads on manhole covers -- loved that detail since I was a kid.

 

[bobbiwoz]

The modern era of CoP has to be the cheesiest. It is so hopelessly outdated, but I still love it!

I especially love the dogs!

Then the the Laugh Floor, I love every thing about it! It's a must do for us!

"It's a great big beautiful tomorrow..."

This is my favorite song to sing the day before we leave for our trip. My kids know the words and now they'll join in. I almost feel sorry for DH... almost

 

[disneydreamer1980]

the opening show used to get me all excited and "in the mood" for a great day at MK. Kind of worried about the new show and how I'll like it. Also agree with COP being the most nostalgic ride, for me, in MK. It's a must do. And the kiss goodnight chokes me up every time.

 

[Mrs~Incredible]

Love this thread!

One time I had to call (magic band question), and the CM said,

"hello this is so and so, how can I turn YOUR pumpkin into a carriage?"

Made me giggle for a while
