Walt Disney World's roadway entrance gateways are now adorned with the 50th-anniversary crest.

With just a couple of weeks to go until the October 1 start, each gateway features the familiar blue and gold 50 design on each pillar supporting the arch.

The 18-month long "World's Most Magical Celebration" begins October 1 2021.

All I see here is Bob Cheapek being too cheap to cover the entire thing. Yeah, I know he didn't order this one thing, but his pennies on the dollar spending is showing through loud and clear on the 50th celebration. Hell, Tron was a mid budget film, but they managed to wrap two entire trains and even put out a toy with both wraps on it.

Hopefully the return of MOUACT in November is a good sign and we’ll see FoF return shortly after. Of course it greatly depends on what’s holding FoF back in the first place.

Maybe we will see this once again when Tron opens at MK?

Bob Gurr, Joe Rhode?... do tell!
Went to McDonald’s today. I got R2-D2, but didn’t receive a 50th anniversary box. Maybe next time haha
I honestly think that monorail looks terrible. It's just a giant sticker that they slapped on the front and back when they could have done so much more and so much more creatively.

Does anyone think that there's any other big announcements to be made prior to the first?

Yes. Illuminations is coming back and Mission Space is going to be torn down to make way for Horizons..... What an anniversary present!

Just kidding.

I will stop short of saying it looks terrible. I will say I am underwhelmed by it. Gold's wrap was not an advertised part of the 50th. If it was "and as part of our 50th Anniversary's Most Magical Celebration we will be wrapping up Monorail gold with some extra pixie dust...." kind of thing then this would be disappointing. As a "surprise" its just eh. I appreciated they did it, but at the same time..... yawn.

What other "selected hotels" have the earlier time?
I assume the Shades of Green, Waldorf Astoria and Dolphin/Swan ?
