I think they should leave the movie themes at the Values and keep the moderates looking the way they are. We may rethink CBR if they are all this way and save our money and just stay at a value. Plus it doesn't make any sense since Nemo was in Australia not the Caribbean.
I agree! We stayed at CBR on our last trip and while it's not our favorite, I just feel that changing the theme to Nemo (and even Pirates) takes away from the Caribbean feel. I've been to Jamaica and there is nothing there that says "Nemo" to me. I wish they'd keep the character decor out of the resorts.

I agree. The bedspread and curtain changes were fine but the border definately pushes it to a value resort feel.

i agree with melissa and others that i prefer less obvious character theming in the moderates. and i absolutely agree that it's the border that puts it over. i can live with the rest, but the border reminds me of our pediatrician's office where each exam room has a different disney character border. i hope it doesn't scare my kids in september- haha!

I saw some recent pics and read some very recent info on another board that indicated that a bit of work has been going on over there and that the WDW powers-that-be want a retheming of the Legendary Years (away from the war years and depression and more towards, possibly, the future --- either that or a repeat of the current buildings.)

I'm interested to see if any of that pans out.

What guest panel convinced the powers that be that the border would be a good ideal?????

I am love the curtains, the bedspread is pushing it, but the border is overkill. Sorry all is JMO, and I am opinionated sometimes. I did not see these pics when I changed my ressies to CBR. Not changing again. Can live with Nemo. But will pricing change now that the room looks like a kids bedroom?

Do the powers read these boards?

I just finally looked at the pics (couldn't pull it up earlier)--- don't like it. First of all, Nemo isn't "caribbean" to me, so I don't really like that. Second my husband convinced me that movie theming should be reserved to All Stars, when he's at CBR he wants to feel like he's in the Caribbean--- not in Finding Nemo. I do agree.

Anybody know if the POC rooms are going to be all Family Suites or if they will have regular rooms with that theme too? DD & I would prefer a POC room to a Nemo room but with it just being the two of us we don't need a family suite.

I am torn. I like the curtains and think that the bedspreds are kind of cute and could be considered suttle in the world of characters but I think it's the boarder that brings it down a knotch for me. The introduction of the boarder is what killed it for me. I like the new cabinate and am not going to complain about the new tv

I will admit I did like feeling like I was transported to the places the hotels are themed off of.

I do hope to see if first hand when we stay there in September - but it's more for the selfish reason of it being "new"

I love the idea of the family suites and will wait to pass any judgement of the decor until I see it

That's exactly what I thought. I'm determined to not make up my mind until I see it for myself in Dec. I really loved the feel of the rooms before so I'm hoping it doesn't take away from that feeling too much. But I can't say I'm all that upset about staying in a newly refurbed room.

While I like the bedspread, flat-screened TV and curtains, I think the border is a little overkill. I hope they're not thinking of incorporating movies into all of the resorts.
I agree with Jooki I wish Disney would just finish what they start instead of
starting something else. I'm all for rehab a resort to update it but I don't
like seeing something just sitting there for YEARS with nothing being done.
