    Disney Architecture...

    Yes thats a key thing Walt wanted, and for the most part, it has been upheld. Also, pretty much its maintained. Architecture and landscape architecture must be maintained. I unfortunately have never seen EPCOT during the flower and garden festival.....is it nice???

    Disney Architecture...

    Yes Isozaki is who I was thinking of. Always love to discuss architecture with another design buff. When I was studying modern architecture (the 80's) I always thought of EPCOT....the expansive concrete (ie Communicore, Horizons) and the use of metal (Spaceship Earth, World of Motion)...

    Disney Architecture...

    Disney is what made me desire to become an architecture. My BA is is achitecture, but many architectural professors dispise Disney, unfortunately. They call it fake and compare it to Las Vegas. On the otherhand, I find it amazing since it makes plaster, fiberglass, and cement look the...

    TOT vs. TOT

    politely, I disagree. I see what you are saying, but I picture the tower at night, and I see the looming dark tower with that blinking out-of-whack sign and the theme is amazing. I think a red light not only would clearly point out the top of the building, but might make it look like radio...

    What is this building all about?

    It is designed by Frank Ghery, world reknown architect. I must commend Disney, they have some top names in architects, Graves, Ghery, Arquitectonica. But Ghery is a crazy guy who comes up with these radical designs that he has to make a model first, since it is rather hard for his firm to...

    Digital Camera Help

    I will give you my .02. I used to work during college at Circuit City in their digital imaging department, and as far as the megapixel, MKT is correct.....you should base the megapixel on the size of picture you want. Also, you have to remember, the larger megapixel you buy, the more memory...

    NASCAR Disney Diecast

    I saw the Daytona '04 stuff at the Homestead race and boy it was neat. Like someone else said, seeing two of my favorite things combined is great! The paint scheme Elliot (9) and Mayfield (19) ran earlier this year with Lion king was really nice, and they tactfully chose their drivers to...

    Joey's Disney Tidbits

    I think Michael Graves (Swan and Dolphin architect) would sue if they tired running the monorail through his hotels. They were not in the preliminary designs of the final either. I really think aesthetically, the beams would take away from the tranquil look of the lagoon between the hotels.

    Paradise Hotel?

    Loved the outcome. And yes I agree, Charla tested Dave and he failed. He really showed his true colors to her. I bet if she gave him the money, he'd have grabbed it fast. Keith is a great guy, and Tara was genuine. Great ending!
