MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

[HMF]

MOVE THE HATBOX GHOST TO THE ATTIC and also add the new Ghost Bride lol

Agree with point A sort of , I would put him just outside the attic as he currently is at DL.
Hard disagree with Point B or at least I disagree with the idea of getting the current DL model whose backstory is never explained and doesn't make much sense. I want to keep the axe basically.

Remove Jack Sparrow from Pirates and restore the original ending scene. Also touch up the queue, fix the chess scene which has been broken for awhile, etc etc

I don't forsee them removing Jack unless Depp does something unforgivable. I would absolutely want Barbossa gone and the majority of the original audio restored. restoration of the original auction and chase scene can never and will never happen.

. Maybe bring over Stitch from Tokyo since that Tiki Room is closing?

Please no. Our Tiki Room was already messed with one time too many.

you lost me at the Space Mountain switching to one track and longer trains... If they did that, the ride would ultimately feel shorter because of the train size the radius of every turn and twist would have to be broader... Just reproduce the new track basically matching the old with maybe some more banking on the curves... Our layout is completely unique...I would love it to stay with better effects and on-board sound...and finally put in a new Post show with speedramp... Something engaging and fun...Something that feels like an attraction itself....like the original exit show scenes were....

I concur.

The Happiest Homecoming on Earth wasn’t actually all that extensive. A new parade and fireworks. A new C-Ticket in an abandoned space. An already planned rebuild’s schedule adjusted and a lot of gold paint. The biggest thing was that the place didn’t look run down and was being run by people genuinely excited to have the job.

I do wonder how many people who visited MK in both 2005 and 2021 were confused about which resorts 50th anniversary it was seeing as how the Florida Castle was also decorated for DL's 50th.

What Ouimet and Emmer managed to do for DL’s 50th, on a budget far less than they wanted (IIRC), was amazing.

You can see why Iger wanted them out the door ASAP.

Ouimet left because Iger wouldn't promote him to the top Parks position. Iger wanted Yes Men.

Yes, and Jay Rasulo and nearly every one of his successors were indeed that. In fact Staggs was the least objectionable and he started in Strategic Planning

We don't talk about... them.

Telling your boss you’re gunning for his job at his expense is generally a poor career strategy.

It is, generally. But I look back and... Al Weiss and Meg Crofton, plus Ed Grier. Ugh...

Telling your underling that he will get your job as long as you can stay in as an advisor and then handing over power for a little bit under a year and then taking the job back while he is at an Elton John concert doesn't seem to be a way to win friends either.

I think Disney World got more for Disneyland's 50th than its own.

Elton John? I thought it was a Coldplay concert?

You are confused….A Coldplay concert is where you go when you are involved in a secret affair…

Aren't all affairs "secret" ?

In a whole other time and place, I once was a general manager of a printing/publishing company. I had a policy calling in employees when they reached their 6th month. I tried not to ask stupid questions like "where do you hope you'll be in 5 years" simply because my stock answer to that question was always "alive". I did, however, ask what, if anything, his goal was with the company. This young man looked me in the eye and confidently said, "I want your job".

Took me by surprise, but honestly was amused by it. I just said he had a big hurdle to get over.. mainly me! I stayed in place for another 5 or so years until I decided to move on. He left after I did, but never got to get my job before he gave up and moved on himself.

I think the DL 50th was a better overall quality promotion. The 60th felt a bit more overhyped than it probably should have been. The 70th seems like an afterthought according to what I have heard.

This is a VERY accurate assessment, having experienced all 3 celebrations for multiple days.

 

[britain]

The 70th needed to be more muted if you want the 75th to feel like a big deal.

All one-day ribbon cuttings look alike to me!!
