And I'm saying they are wrong It's really hard to trust many so-called "Insiders" But I'm just telling you what's true because I was there.

It was originally designed to be only seen for 2 seconds and hoped people would say "Did you see the Yeti?" it was so quick so it would add to the mystery and legend.

The foundation and the figure is fine, it's the movable platform that supports the figure is where the problem is.

He was the Senior VP in charge of all the WDW Engineering Teams when the Yeti had its problems, he didn't want the spend the money to fix it then, so I'm sure he doesn't want to spend it now.

He graduated from Georgia Tech with a Mechanical Engineering Degree He was the Manager of MK Engineering Support services in the mid 90's, basically as the money guy in charge of Engineering In 1997 he was selected to head up the Engineering team to open up Animal Kingdom After that he got...

The France pavilion movie "Impressions de France" has gone digital. It is the same movie and same soundtrack, no changes, the only thing that changed was the media. I heard that it is greatly improved really crisp and clean images and remastered it and adjusted some color and some alignment...

The Inferno Barge is scheduled to be out for rehab from April 27 - May 27.

Air Launched Fireworks. The first 2 shots of ROE are the ALF system and the rest are normal shots. The ALF system is mainly used at Disneyland and just used for part of ROE.

It was just product testing, trying out different vendors. They have been having issues with poor quality fireworks from certain vendors. So they tried out some different types. The ALF system is fine, it was all product issues mainly with the timing chips.

The Holiday ROE w/ Peace on Earth Tag will be exactly the same this year again. No other changes are coming anytime soon, next year maybe. I also heard that Showcase Plaza Xmas Tree stage and Lights of Winter aren't ever coming back. First, (like most times) it's about money, it is expensive...

Repairs are still being made to the Inferno Barge, hopefully it will be back in show by Monday. It will be going out for another rehab in probably Jan or Feb.

That's the feeling I'm getting also, just similar to Casey Jr and a ride through Storybookland but it will be a mine ride through Fantasy Forest. The working title (for now) I heard was "Seven Dwarves Coaster"

Pretty Good. It is going to happen, it is just a matter of when. I think it is going to be France and The Land next. Epcot still has film in Energy, Norway, China, AA, Canada, Captain EO, Soarin. It is going to be a while to replace it all, but it is all planned to be replaced eventually. They...

I don't know if anyone has noticed but the Mexico Boat Ride (Gran Fiesta Tour) during the last couple of weeks, all the film projectors have been changed out to digital video projectors. Slowly, they will be replacing all the film with video. After Star Tours shut down, there is only a couple...

Just remember, they aren't officially open yet. They open tomorrow at 3 pm. Then on Friday, they begin their regular schedule of 11am for the Cantina and 4pm for the Hacienda. They are still testing the audio, as well inside and outside. There was a lot of speakers on the rooftop that have...

The Grand Salon and Formal Dining rooms have great water views. There isn't a bad seat there. A lot of tables near the windows and booths in the back but every seat has a great view. There is different architecture and lighting fixtures in each room. Only in the Pantry dining,you don't get a...

They have been serving VIP's already. The food looks really good, but I haven't tasted it yet. Here is some info I learned about the Hacienda/Cantina, the hours for the Cantina will be 11am - 9pm and the Hacienda will be 4pm - 9pm. The seating was the biggest surprise for me. As of right...

La Hacienda de San Angel is scheduled to open on Sept. 15 for table service and La Cantina de San Angel will be open for counter service. But, of course, this is the scheduled date, it might have a soft open or could open later depending on how the finishing touches and operations go.

I was in there the other night and it still needs a lot of work. It is very slow progress. I heard that they already ran out money for the project, so now it is over budget, I hope they don't cut back on a lot things. One thing, it is definitely going to have the best view for Illuminations...

Here is my take on the situation since I know a lot of the people involved at DAK. I find it funny when people use the term TDO, (like everyone is together on the same team) There is a lot of office politics involved like most corporations. It is more like WDW AES vs WDI. Everyone is pointing...
