Disney Changes Out Classic Songs, Scrubs Gendered Language from Paint the Night Parade at Disneyland

A series of controversial changes to Paint the Night at Disneyland has stirred controversy among the Disney fanbase once more.

The return of Paint the Night at Disneyland should’ve been a triumph—a beloved nighttime parade revived to mark the park’s 70th anniversary with dazzling lights, familiar characters, and a wave of nostalgia.

When Disney announced its plans to construct a brand-new theme park in Abu Dhabi, heads turned around the world—and not just because of the surprise location. While speculation continues to swirl about what Disney might bring to Yas Island, one question loomed larger than all the rest: how exactly do you build a Disneyland in one of the hottest places on Earth?

Thanks to Miral Group CEO Mohamed Abdalla Al Zaabi, we now have at least one clear answer—you take it indoors.

Disneyland’s 70th anniversary celebration is already off to a strange start after a new silhouette installed in the Esplanade suddenly vanished with no public explanation from Disney.

There’s a video making the rounds on TikTok right now that perfectly captures everything wrong with what EPCOT has become. Nine full-grown adults, drinks in hand, shouting the Star-Spangled Banner in front of the American Adventure pavilion as though they were frat boys on a bender—culminating in one of them leaping into the decorative fountain and sloshing around like it’s a Vegas pool party.

Disneyland Resort is Quietly Fixing the Infamous Curved Eiffel Tower Scene in Soarin’ at Disney California Adventure

Years of ridicule over the warped Paris scene has finally led to a fix as Disney Imagineering will update the Eiffel Tower in Soarin’ Around the World at Disney California Adventure. 

For years, one of Disneyland’s most talked-about visual oddities hasn’t come from a mischievous animatronic or a breakdown on Rise of the Resistance—it’s been the Eiffel Tower itself. The iconic Parisian landmark, featured in Soarin’ Around the World, has long appeared unnaturally curved when viewed from the sides of the theater. Now, Disney has finally decided to straighten things out—literally.

Disney Expands Controversial and Unpopular Virtual Queue System to Cruise Line, Sparking Fresh Outrage

If you thought each virtual queue rollout was a disaster at Walt Disney World and Disneyland, it looks like Disney is ready to bring that frustration to the high seas as part of the Disney Cruise Line.

Guests aboard the Disney Wish were met with an unwelcome surprise during the ship’s April 21 voyage — the rollout of a virtual queue system for popular onboard experiences. Using the Disney Cruise Line’s Navigator app, passengers were encouraged to reserve times for character meet-and-greets and rides like the AquaMouse water coaster. Access to the app is complimentary even without a paid Wi-Fi package, but that doesn’t make the move any less controversial.
