I wish ... :D

Ok Pete ... Since you apparently know ... whats the magic number?

I think that was the first year we did it as well and it was a ghost town no pun intended. We did it twice last year and once the year before ... Last year was the most crowded I have ever seen it and it was not a sell out, thats what leads me to believe that number is close to 40K now.

Since you apparently know ... what is the actual number?

I hate to say it but I think that number now a days is probably around 40K ... the last 2-3 years the parties have been packed ... and this is on "non-sell out" dates.

I agree it looks horrible when compared to the rest ... but according to Joe Rhode's Instagram Page he is really pleased with the Asphalt. ;)

True, but WDI is not at fault for budget cuts. @Eddie Sotto 's original plan for Mission Space was pretty epic ... what happened when the bean counters (and Eisner ... who green lit it) got a hold of it was what we are left with today ... the attraction is still pretty impressive and I do like...

I heard Bricker @WDWFigment went 60 for 60 ... or at least thats what he tweeted ... Im not sure if he was serious or not ... but when it comes to good food and good free food, he doesn't mess around ... I could see him put 60 away ... the kid must have a metabolism like a pack of termites.

Which is even more astonishing ... the best creatives in the biz know their history ... whether its art history, ad history ... but to not even do your research on your own company let alone an attraction you are in charge of re-imagining ... that's just stupid ... or ignorant ... or both.

How that thing even made it out of the concept stages blows my mind.

It looks like his key light was set to low. If you watch as he walks up ... his face is lit then goes into shadow. His chest is lit, but not his face, its pretty apparent when he is standing next to Mickey.

Disneyland is also much better at crowd control and distribution than WDW.

While I agree to an extent ... in the case of the WL I honestly can't see how they can accomplish those plans with out removing a substantial portion of the surrounding trees on both waterfronts, which in the case of the lodge would detract from the theme of the resort.

I wonder, in hindsight ... how much of the change had to do with the hand off between Rasulo and Staggs ... because doesn't Rasulo have girls, in which case all the pixie hollow stuff made sense ... and Staggs I believe has boys ... which was why the mine train returned and the meet and greets...

My bad guys, it was a tounge and cheek comment. My sarcasm was clearly not represented as it was intended.

I'm not sure either ... I worked on some of the launch creative for it before the park opened, a handful of us actually got to tour the park while it was being constructed ... Universal partnered with Dodge (I was at BBDO at the time) we did several print ad's with the Marvel Characters and the...
