    Pics of the YETI

    "Look at the top left corner, see anything? Looks like a warehouse roof to me. Look at the set above the yeti, looks like its disassembled. Maybe this was taken long before the ride was all-together?" Almost all Disney rides are essentially in decorated warehouses. If you look at the back of...

    Mission: SPACE "Tragedy" picture

    I'm sorry, but I must disagree. Some of the classic Disney rides are ones where families separate. Also, I should say some people LIKE to skip out on some rides. For example, my parents won't ride Mission Space, so I'll ride it with my cousins while the 'folks grab a coffee and pastry at the...

    Will The Castle Be Covered Or Scaffolded?

    i think the work is small and localized enough that they could probablly do most of it by only covering/scaffolding small portions of the castle at a time... i think they did the 'test' tower pretty easily, possibly even over night...it's not a huge thing we're talking about here...

    Are there Church Services over Christmas???

    Mary Queen Shrine The Shrine is just across I-4, near the Lake Buena Vista Blvd. entrance. A cab ride couldn't cost more than a few dollars. The Shrine is not a parish but a ministry (technical terms). They 'congregation' per se are Orlando tourists; that is, it is specifically targeted...

    Can you videotape TIMEKEEPER?

    Any boats ever sink in WS Lagoon?

    Inept FriendShip captains coud easily bring down one of the boats :hammer: Easier way would be for a captain to slam the boat too hard at the dock thus causing a hull breach.Water would start pouing in, pumps would overload, end of FriendShip (figurative and litterally)

    Any boats ever sink in WS Lagoon?

    THE GLOBE! (and other stuff) A) It's not a FriendShip; if a FriendShip had sunk, the spectacle of doznes of people bailing out at once with orange lifevests would have caught someone's eye. That and the beachhead at Mexico right next to the mystery image is an emergency landing spot for the...

    NY Street Construction Photos

    Yes, the Disney-MGM Studios is an actual working studio production facility; thus, it would not be be unreasonable to see crew preparing a set for a new 'prodcution'. That's also why Rock N'RollerCoaster, StarTours, Muppet Vision, and other shows are in buildings that are obviously labled as...

    Mexico Update

    The ride really needs an update.... I always enjoyed the exhibit in the front, although it was never really utilized well. I've been to the Nat'l Museum in Mexico City..even replicas of the pieces there would be amazing! I HIGHLY doubt they will change the Plaza (Plaza de los Amigo, I...

    Killing the MAGIC slowly..

    SE Not Dissappearing My quick rantings: I swear if anyone else rants about the SE Building dissapearing.... Please re-read the press statement (which may or may nto be true). There is NOTHING about the building dissappearing, but rather seems to very clearly state the interior will be...

    New Pavilion (Spain) at Epcot?

    Ole! Actually, my grandfather (Spanish family) has a picture in front of a sign at Epcot that says "Coming Soon: Spain". Excpet this picture was taken in about 1983 or so! I'll try to scan it sometime so y'all can see. I'm just glad I won't have to go back to Spain to find real Austurian...

    MK Cinderella Castle Rehabs

    Don't worry...most of the fireworkds used at MK detonate well above the Castle. So unless Disney brought in a 300 ft crane, I think you'll be able to see the fireworks just fine :-)

    MK Cinderella Castle Rehabs

    Clearly, there is no way to win in the matter of refurbs. I worked at Epcot the summer before the Millennium Celebration when everything in Epcot was closed, and I had complaints to no end. But as I explained to the guests, the only way to have the whole park competley spruced up for the...

    I think I actually like the JIYI original redo better than this new version

    It is my belief that you, and many others on these boards, will never be happy with anything Disney does. With the Imagination pavilion, you complain about the new redo, you complained about the original redo, and if they were to change it back to the orignial version, you'd complain that they...

    Disney Construction Stopped???

    I recall reading that Disney had accounting errors. However, undereporting profit is apparantly not fraudulent, unlike overreporting profit like WorldCom. It was apparantlly written off as bad accounting, since it didn't cuase their stock to be overvalued ala WorldCom.

    Star Tours Letdown

    I really enjoy the flight in to the Death Star, but I'm open to the chance of a new experience. I think a great solution would be to massivley update the simulators, and keeping a couple of sims running the Death Star run (ie, service to Endor) and the rest running a newer film (perhaps...

    Favorite Celebration

    IllumiNation 25 A & B IllumiNations 25 A, as it is at times refferd to, was very similar to 25 B. The soundtrack featured a Circle of Life finale. The opening (Nations Welcome) was identical. The Second Act (focusing on the Future World pavilions) featured the same laser images. I was...

    Favorite Celebration

    Although the 2000 Celebration is my favorite,I also really enjoyed Donald Duck's Birthday (I love the song) and the 20th Celebration (Surprise!) with the giant character balloons parade in the MK.
