I think this is the closest thing to the "real" reason for it as anything I've read yet...

"No one blinks an eye"??? I most certainly blink an eye (or both) when I pay $400 for a hotel room in NOLA and then get slammed with a $50/night parking fee. But you don't really have a choice...

I remember it as if I was standing there seeing it last week. I was standing between the gift shops and Canada with one of my best friends from High School/College. It was the summer of '83. We were both completely blown away. We saw it 3 more times on that trip. I'm so happy that there are...

Agree completely. DL's Fantasmic! is an awesome show. The Columbia enters as a full-sized pirate ship and for the finale the Mark Twain comes into view with the full cast. DHS's version has a bad Pocohontas scene, and the "steam boat" in the finale looks like a bad Mardi Gras float built by an...

I have loved the EP night time show ever since I saw Laserphonic Fantasy for the first time. I've seen all of the iterations since, and I have to say my favorite was the last version before they introduced the globe. Even with today's version, the "middle finale", before the show comes to a...

Seeing it listed this way, DHS will be second only to MK with regards to attractions at 16 (9 rides and 7 shows). Based on my mental count, EP has 15 (8 rides and 7 shows), and AK has 11 (7 rides and 4 shows - and assorted walking trails). Don't kill me if I'm off by a number or two (I didn't...

Here's another from the Site that shall not be mentioned... An Illuminations replacement is being fast tracked - to the point that the new soundtrack is already being recorded. Any confirmation?

Totally cool! Thank you.

I have been to many theme parks across the country and I see what draws the lines. If Disney broadened it definition of "family" and built a coaster with an intensity level similar to The Hulk, Kraken, or any of several Busch Gardens Coaster, it would soon become one of the most popular...

I'm not sure if this the right place to ask this or not, but here goes. The site that shall not me mentioned is reporting that Pinocchio's Village House will start serving a Dinner TS buffet of various "Italian" dishes. Is there any other confirmation of this?

It was definitely a step down when Alfredo's left, although I have to say I do like the pizzas at VN. TI is not bad, but I can get better at home. I haven't read many good reviews from the Edison...

Please refresh my memory - which other WDW restaurants are part of the Patina Group?

Go ahead, boycott. Shorter lines for the rest of us...

I'm pretty much assuming that virtually every day of the week will have some sort of up-charge CM breakfast/ride package or after closing "party". Disney's going to suck as much money out of this as possible. And with predicted wall-to-wall people, SB lines in the 3-5 hour range and FPPs gone...

Or the hotel could be a short distance away, and you board a landing shuttle (i.e. windowless lite rail similar to Hogwart's Express concept) that then "lands" directly in SWGE. There could be hotel-exclusive pre-RD or post-closing "excursions" to SWGE giving hotel guests exclusive admission to...

Sorry if I missed this somewhere in the 12K-plus posts, but how will the finished rock work here compare to Pandora with regards to height?

The original soundtrack was awesome; the last version was horrible. I was hoping that this would go back to a more "epic" sound with full chorus and orchestra, but instead it descended even further into "contemporary" Disney-pop trash. I do like what they did with the visual montage; I think it...

No, both rides have two sets of 4 disks; assuming the ride is the same length, the capacity should be identical.

And remember that this is an outside company contracted to build the system that doesn't necessarily share the internal Disney model of stretching construction over as many quarters as feasibly possible. The motivation is to complete the project as efficiently as possible, not drag it out as...

Yes, a re-themed clone. But I've ridden Mater and it's a lot more fun to ride than it looks.
