Title: Characters October 2011 - SEEING DOUBLE
Post by: jenniedisney on October 19, 2011, 05:05:58 PM
HI EVERBODY!

Just got back from a week in DLRP.
I have a couple of concerns.

The BIGGEST one being with regards to the characters. Obviously, being halloween the villains were out in force, which they aren't usually most other times of the year.
However, on many occasions i was seeing double.

I would stand (not deliberately the first few times) in frontierland, with a view of the castle stage. I saw that the villains show was happening. All the villains, captain hook, queen of hearts, maleficent all onstage dancing. If i then stayed put and turned my head to Phantom Manor.......THERE WERE THE VILLAINS AGAIN! Come on Disney you don't usually make mistakes like that! It happened on many occasions.
And once, during the OUAD parade, during the floats interactive stop, the jungle book float was near caseys corner/ entrance to adventure land. Just inside adventure land at the new meet n greet, there were RAFIKI AND TIMONE. Now this one wasn't as bad, because technically i wasn't seeing double, but nevertheless could potentially be confusing!!

Has anyone else noticed this?

My other concern, is during this visit we saw MANY mice and RATS running around the park. Particulary in adventureland. Sometimes it was after dark, but other times it was broad daylight. HMMMMMM maybe a problem there?!?!

The villains meet and great in conjuncton with the villains show was badly organised at times.

However, they were obviously trying to limit the chance of seeing double. We were going to the 3pm show, and at about 2:55pm Dr.Facilier came over to Cruella and said they had to go to the show. But they were completly different people who were on stage.

It was a bit odd.

This was a tricky one to explain to Kyra.

We arrived on a Sunday when the Halloween show was happening and obv Dr Facilier was on stage, I at that time was taking Kyra to Frontierland to see Dr Facilier as I had arranged, luckily Dr Facilier had a great excuse to tell her because she believed it. She never question it again.

Last year said good-bye to Sleeping Beauty in the Auberge, only to see her again in the castle courtyard outside, that woman can move!!!!!!Maybe Flora ,Fauna and Merryweather gave her a hand.

I've noticed this on many occasions.

The recent one was during my last trip in August - we queued to meet Aurora in the morning and then went to Auburge about an hour later - who we saw, however "another" Aurora - and when she asked us what we did - just just looked at her like; "Umm, we met you."  But we just said meeting princesses. LOL!

Same with the New Generations fesitval last year, we saw the hub show, and by the time we walked from the hub to the entrance- Tiana and Naveen where going their meet and greet under the gazebo. lol

We had that yesterday, Dr Facilier was by Phantom Manor AND on stage at the same time... But he's got friends on the other side, so who knows... ;)
