    Disney may have interest in Sea World

    Blackstone Group is the most likely purchaser of Busch Entertainment, having already a sizable portfolio in the Theme/Amusement Park market. NBC/Universal's desire to unload their ownership share in their theme park business has very little validity here.

    Bad day at the Germany pravilion

    Ironicly english i a germanic language, which most people don't know, probably because their are little word that are similar. Unlike the romantic languages, their are strong similarities. But this sad to hear about, one of my favoriate places in WDW.

    The Future of Transportation To Disney World

    Very true...... Most flight operations are controlled by computer now on aircraft. After about 1500 to 3000 feet off the ground, most of the time the pilot activate the autopilot which may stay active all the way up to including the landing, or to the very end of the landing. Airbus aircraft are...

    The Future of Transportation To Disney World

    Airports have to reconfigure some of their termals to service this aircraft. The terminals that service this aircraft have 3 jetways for boarding. While I think the aircraft is a great replacement and alternative to Boeing's 747. I think Boeing still made the right projection of future air...

    If you were WDW boss, what would you do? (5th gate)

    If I was president of WDW and had to make a decision about the 5th gate my decision would be not to open one. Building another park would boost attendance consistently, certainly not consistently enough to fill the park over the long term. The market isn't there for a 5th gate. You another...

    Does anyone know where the Harry Potter park will be built?

    Unfortunately, the Lockheed Martin site was not sold to GE with the Universal sale. Either Vivendi saw the real estate value in the land, since they needed to cash in as much equity as possible giving the debt they had. Or, GE wasn't interested in expanding the resort so they didn't want to...

    Universal likely to get Lord of the Rings theme park rights...

    First, Disney's parks work independently when it comes to building new attractions. Even at that I can't remember when Disney expanded two parks at the same time, or even added two major E tickets at the same time. Second, Simpson is not a major addition. I don't think Universal would buy the...

    Universal likely to get Lord of the Rings theme park rights...

    The problem is where would they put it. Unless they they convereted the rest of Lost Continent into an area for that. Also, with addition of HP at USO, which doesn't open until 2010 mind you, I don't see a point in adding a new major theme. You would be overshadowing your own project, which...

    Harry Potter Park announced!

    I am sure people said the samething about Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Mickey Mouse. You can't say that after the last book and movie nobody will follow the franchise. Trust me I never read a single HP book, nor seen any of the movie and in all honesty have no desire to do so either. So don't...

    Disney and apple...together

    quick question: Is he the largest single person shareholder, or the largest shareholder in general?

    NO Harry Potter for Disney!

    based on the owl pic. You can see DD to the far right and Flying Unicorn in the center. The castle will sit right next to JP River Adventure. One has to wonder how this will affect JP island. With Speilbergs departure from Universal, maybe JP's island seems expendable.

    Should DisneyWorld Build a 5th park with more emphasis on thrill rides?

    besides adults do have their parks, Epcot and PI. If you want more edgy rides go to Universal, that is what their niche is. There is no law against going to both resorts. Let each work their magic in the areas they excel in.
