Disney has said in the past that it will be existing characters, just with circus outfits. Think of Donald in his frontiersman clothing in Frontierland, only in Pete's Silly Sideshow he would be dressed as a magician called "The Great Donaldo."

I've taken it. I don't know what you mean by "Disney Parks imagery to the point of bludgeoning" but all of the questions you listed are real. But I didn't feel it was dumbed down at all. As people mentioned above, there are MANY people who don't know the difference between WDW and UOR or that...

For those who haven't seen it, you should watch the interview that Ricky Brigante conducted during last year's D23 Expo with Scott Mallwitz, the "overall concept architect" for the Fantasyland Expansion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PDRuRDBR4A At the 2:34 mark Scott explains what Pete's...

I was at an event where Bret confirmed that he was involved with the creation of the Talking Mickey, but he wasn't allowed to give any further details. I took his response to mean that he created a bank of pre-recorded names and phrases for CMs to choose from.

Iger confirmed it during last week's annual shareholder meeting: "We've done some preliminary design work. … We're working on some concepts," Iger said. "It's our hope, in a few places around the world, Marvel characters will appear either in attractions or lands or in some form to provide...

I was at the meeting as well and agree with your assessments of Iger and Rasulo. I also found it very telling that the montage that included Disney's movie accomplishments had clips of Muppets, Pirates and Brave, but not a single image of John Carter. I think they know which way the wind is...

The Great Goofini actually is a magician: For the Barnstormer, he's apparently added "daredevil pilot" to his repertoire.

There actually is a rogues gallery of sorts. Doofenshmirtz belongs to an evil organization called L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. which has made a couple of appearances on the show. It would be very easy to make the game fit World Showcase by having Perry oppose L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N.'s plans to take over...

That's one of the wings of the new Dumbo attraction. :)

The missing chariot projection might be explained by the fact that it's no longer Rome that is burning. The Judi Dench narration now says: "Rome falls. And the great Library of Alexandria in Egypt is burned." Now that the burning scene takes place in Egypt, not Rome, the chariot...

Judging by recent official press releases, it appears that the attraction will still be called the Barnstormer, or more formally, the Barnstormer Featuring the Great Goofini.

There is absolutely nothing posted on the Hub about any AP blackouts, so I'm not sure where that information is coming from. As for cast blackouts, it only applies to their Main Gates (which they use to admit friends and families). They will still be allowed to enter using their cast I.D. or...

You're definitely right. Kasa Panzu Mor Thiam

FYI, the Bucs stopped training at WWoS in 2009. They now stay home in Tampa. But the Atlanta Braves still have their training at WWoS.

Pirates of the Caribbean Disney Dollars available now To celebrate the “Pirates of the Caribbean” film franchise, the fourth in a series of Disney Dollars has been released. The new bill is available in a $1 denomination only and features the iconic skull and ship highlighted in the motion...

Yes, they're scheduled to return on 10/30.
