    Interesting blog post (tangential to Disney)

    Hi all, Thought this was an interesting post, especially given that we are often the 2% that get annoyed when Disney changes something. http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/typepad/sethsmainblog/~3/0jCIt932VqA/alienating-the-2.html Is he right? Mathematically, he is. There are people who didn't...

    Magic Kingdom currently (30 Dec 11:45am) closed to some guests due to capacity

    Mk Magic Kingdom is at Phase 3 or 4 -- all vehicle traffic is being directed away from the park at the moment. It's loony busy. Not going anywhere near there tomorrow. :-)

    Jim MacPhee is new Epcot VP

    "Champion" 's strong stance that there wouldn't be ANYTHING was the problem... it's ignorant to assume that something like that CAN'T change... it presumes too much. I've been around the Diz long enough to know that EVERYTHING can change and nothing is set in stone (except for the Legacy...

    Best Entrance Music

    I love reviving old threads like this one -- but this is a class thread... Ray Lynch is responsible for many pieces of the Wonders of Life background music, some of which are woven into the various versions of the BGM played at the front of the park... Epcot has by far one of the most diverse...

    Medical Emergency at Haunted Mansion Last Night?

    I won't mention any names either. I'll just tell you that your posts are not logical, not all that intelligent and you are making blanket statements on topics you seem ignorant on. Don't pick on people, don't make blanket statements and DO learn to use punctuation. That being said, welcome to...

    El Rio Del Tiempo Refurb Question....

    Because Walt himself was a fan of progress... change for change's sake isn't a good idea -- you don't change something because you can, you change something because you should. If it can be improved, if it can be done differently, if the story can reach more people and be more effective at...

    The character bus in Epcot is ending?

    The bus was a nice thing to have at the rope drop in the mornings, and the music was fantastic... very lively, and made me dance... some of you might have seen me! :-) joe

    Siemens to redo Spaceship Earth?

    Actually, the Land's escalators tend to go down quite frequently. The Seas, not quite as much, but occassionally. I dunno about the ones at AA, but the condition of the ones at JIYI are not very good. Maybe insurance wasn't it -- maybe just too cheap to redo it for what they perceived as nominal...

    They took away my steak!!!

    Okay, so this is forever in posting -- it happened over 3 months ago, but I'm just getting around to posting... At the Yachtsman Steakhouse at the Yacht Club (great restaurant when you want to get out of the parks for a bit of relaxation -- it's a close walk or boat ride from Epcot), they used...

    Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater

    they're not expensive, at least not in theme park speak. They have sandwiches and other items for decent prices, and even my favorite entree, the Coke ribs, are only $16.95, I think. Expensive would be Cindy's at $35 a plate starting. My last dinner for 2 there was over $100. That's expensive...

    Le Cellier Booked Through June!

    Whilst I don't want to bash on the lovely Rose & Crown -- they have excellent food and even better people, you'll be missing out. Coral Reef is magnificent, and the ambience is truly amazing. You won't even pay attention to the food, if you're at the right table. We sat at the larger booths...

    Siemens to redo Spaceship Earth?

    Let's hope so........... although he's also a Disney contract player... I know everyone knows this one, so i'm not even going to give trivia points for it.

    Siemens to redo Spaceship Earth?

    Hiya to you, Zac! :-) My hopes too, my friend... having worked in the pavillion and being on the opening team of JIYI (don't throw any tomatoes, it was the assignment I got!) ;-) I have a little love for it, because it's got SOME of the original flair and is cute in it's own way. I understand...

    Siemens to redo Spaceship Earth?

    Last I heard, it won't be available for special events without Siemens' blessing, which pretty much requires that it be for them or someone they know/like on a corporate level. I cleaned that stainless steel bathroom recently -- and let me tell you -- even without much usage, stainless steel...

    Siemens to redo Spaceship Earth?

    While I respect ya, I have to disagree a little. The current JIYI isn't as good as the original, but it's light years ahead of the in-between stage. I miss the stuff from upstairs in the old ImageWorks, and I know how much of it is still up there sitting unused, including the potentially amazing...

    DisneyQuest to close?

    Add this to the combine DQ/ESPN Zone/Club concepts into one big ball, call it ESPN Zone, powered by DisneyQuest, keep original concepts like PoTC, CSM, the recording booths (has anyone used these? They're a blast!! I have some tracks I'll share if you don't know what I'm talking about)...

    DisneyQuest to close?

    First of all, please learn a LITTLE proper grammar (and yes, I am shouting... or at least emphasizing my point). Second of all, you obviously don't know what you are talking about. Your post about Disney paying ESPN money is a ludicrous concept. That would be akin to Epcot paying Magic...
