Jungle Cruise is already in development. Pirates I believe also now holds the record for most people in one month. Remember, it's not necessarily just how long the line is, but also the Hourly Ride Capacity is that determines this.

To clarify, calling in sick is 1 point, for up to 3 days. Reprimands come after calling in 3 times in 30 days, 6 times in 90 days or 9 times in 180 days. You can also get fired for calling in 10 days in a row. It takes 4 reprimands to get fired. Cast members also get sick days (which do not...

I believe its either a 1 or possibly 2 point safety reprimand, which would naturally be upsetting. There are also witness statements to fill out, which are also not fun. As for the language, it probably wasn't a big concern unless someone specifically complained about it. I do hope the skipper...

Being a skipper, I'm interested to hear about this one. I have an idea of what or who you could be referring to...

I was able to see it last night as well and I was floored. The lights look absolutely amazing! :D Unfortunately I think this is gonna be the type of thing where pictures just won't do it justice, you really have to see it in person.

CP's make $6.67 presently, which I think is minimum wage in FL. I could be wrong, but I don't think face characters make that much, and I'm rather certain lifeguards start at closer to $9. Quick serve F&B gets a small premium as do housekeepers and a few other roles. Overall it's competitive...

I've been reading Al Lutz for a few years now, and I find his articles to be some of the best out there for understanding the politics of the Parks and Resorts division. Is he always right? No, and the way things change so rapidly at Disney, I'm not sure he really could be. But he definitely...

I'm pretty sure the rumor is that a new July 4th show is in the works for next year, maybe a Wishes-version. Anyone know for sure on that?

If these guys were simply "hanging out" and not causing any sort of trouble as this article implies, Disney was clearly in the wrong. Like others, I'm not convinced that this was the whole story. Whatever the case is though, it's quickly turning into a PR nightmare, just saw it as a lead story...

Alright, since you asked ;)... *SPOILER ALERT* First off, I should mention I've only read the script and haven't actually heard the new narration myself yet. But here's what I know... Ms. Jobson is gone completely. Which thereby eliminates my favorite line out of the whole...

Yeah, that's pretty much right. As far as the new script, I won't get into detail on it, there are quite a few changes, but storyline-wise, don't expect anything radically different.

Yep, more and more of the trucks are getting the new spiel as the drivers get trained on them, up until June 1 when the whole thing will officially change over.

Didn't they do this last year as well?

I agree, that tarp has been up for a while... I think Japan's taking even longer. I don't know, I'd complain, but then I'm just glad they're fixing things.

Did anybody else find it fascinating and more than a little surprising that Iger reguarly eats dinner with Jeffrey Katzenberg? My how things change...
