Can I just add my voice to the chorus of Disney fans out there that feel the decision to paint the castle gold is a bad one? (Run-on sentence...sorry.)

Here's one word, sort of: Bleh.
:mad:

At least it's not a giant cake made from Pepto Bismol...

Let's discuss.

Wait, do we know for sure that the whole castle is being painted? The reports thus far on the Pad are varied and confused.

fyi if you go to disneyland.com down in the right lower corner there is a small link to a write up about the 50th plans, and it shows artwork of the painted castle. (i assume its what the castle is going to look like)

I am less freaked out by the gold than I am by the notion that the castle will be wearing large jewelry-

I'm going to need more details before I decide how I really feel about it

Oh wait, I think I have seen that castle (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00008X353/103-0974735-2335062?v=glance&s=toys&me=A3UN6WX5RRO2AG&vi=pictures&img=14#more-pictures) before.

LOL- Mamabot you are making me laugh alot this week!

I have now seen the picture of the concept and I pronounce it hideous. I can only hope the real thing is better, because right now I am horrified! :eek:

I've taken to using the word "expletive" regarding castle accesorization.

According to AVP, posted at 12:24 pm:


The castle IS NOT GOING TO BE PAINTED GOLD. It has gold bunting on it, and "crowns" on the five turrets.

:eek: That was pretty much my reaction once I saw the piccy on the Disney site. Yikes. Kind of . . . colorful.

I for one am excited for everything! Who cares if it's ugly, it's temporary! At least it's something for our little resort! Would you guys rather them do nothing at all?

Woohoo! We're turning 50!

I said this to LSPoorEeoyreic in a PM and I think it bears repeating.

Our lovely, romantic castle is being Queer-eyed by Mr. T.

Sad.

lol:D. Yes she did.

It looks like Happy Rainbow Brite She-Ra Jem Malibu Barbie Castle (Pink Sunsparkle Pony is extra).

Well, at least it isn't all gold. Bleh.

I don't know what these things have to do with Sleeping Beauty Castle for the 50th but I do find them very offensive.

In this world of things to get truly outraged about- getting offended by this is such a waste of time- :rolleyes:

They have got to be kidding. I hate how they are decorating the castle.

I don’t think that the castle is that horrible. I'm sure it will look alot cooler in person. :)

I'm sorry that you find bigotry such a waste of time and have to roll your eyes at me.

I guess I should seek my information about Disneyland in a more welcoming forum, so as to not waste your time.
