Pixar Pals Countdown To Fun Parade
The newest parade at Disney World just exudes fun. The Pixar Pals Countdown To Fun! Parade at Disney's Hollywood Studios includes floats, dancers, and an unbelievable number of characters from 6 great Disney Pixar Animated Films.
The music sets the stage for this upbeat parade and the song they use is a remake of the Todd Rundgren classic: "Bang The Drum All Day." The tune is instantly recognizable and will have you wanting to sing and dance along with the characters and performers.
Leading off the Pixar Pals Countdown To Fun! Parade are the characters from The Incredibles. On the ground they have Elastigirl (aka Mrs. Incredible) and Frozone. There are also many brightly attired performers including some on scooters to help keep the energy level high and to engage the Hollywood Studios crowd. On the red and yellow Countdown to Fun Float is none other than Mr. Incredible dancing to the music.
The next Pixar film represented is the 1998 classic A Bug's Life. The float is a recreation of the P.T. Flea's Circus Caravan from the film with Francis prominently positioned in a saxophone.
Preceding the float you will find Flik and Dot making their way along the parade route with performers in colorful ladybug costumes.
P.T. Flea has never seen his circus so well advertised. The float instantly brings back memories from the movie. The overall float design is excellent and looks great.
You can see Gypsy riding on the back of the float and it is followed by Slim, the walking stick bug. Seeing these characters made me want to see the movie again (which I am sure is part of the goal of including them in the parade!).
Ratatouille
Next up is the float representing the adorable "little Chef Remy" from Ratatouille. The float returns to Countdown to Fun! style, but adds it's unique flavor by making the blocks look like cheese.
The characters on the floats like Remy were very active and were constantly dancing to the music and waving to the crowd.
Monsters Inc.
There couldn't be a parade of Pixar characters without including Mike Wazowski, Sulley, and the gang from Monsters Inc. Their float is an ingenious recreation of the Scream Floor with Mike and Sulley along for the ride.
The float depicts the Scream Floor and the large canisters that are used to store the screams that are collected. Also high above you can see the doors that are used to transport from Monstropolis to the human world. The details are amazing. There is even a tote board that shows the scare totals with Sullivan (Sulley) having a slight lead over his nemesis Randall.
Up!
The heart tugging Pixar film Up! is represented next with your favorite characters: Russell, Dug, and Carl Fredricksen. Leading the way in the parade are Wilderness Explorer Russell and Dug the Dog.
Carl Fredricksen rides the float and impresses the crowds with his dance moves. Note the balloons that are worked into the design of the float.
Toy Story 3
Last, but not least the characters from Toy Story 3 are represented. Leading the way for the Toy Story gang are Mr. Potatohead, Jessie, and Bullseye.
The float for the Toy Story characters incorporates many of the great classic toys that you see in the movies like: Speak and Spell, Tinker Toys, and Barrel of Monkeys. You will also see Buzz Lightyear and Woody take center stage on the float. The representation of Buzz Lightyear's spaceship and the little green aliens at the top of the float are great.
You will also see the "villain" of Toy Story 3 - Lots-'O-Huggin Bear making his appearance on the float as well.
Parade Worth Seeing
The Pixar Pals Countdown To Fun! Parade is definitely one that is worth seeing. This high energy parade will have you singing along and excited to see all of the characters from some of your favorite Disney Pixar films.
It is definitely worth your time to make sure that you catch this parade during your next visit to Disney's Hollywood Studios. Whether you have children or you just love the memorable characters from these Disney Pixar movies you will enjoy the parade.
