Could these liens be filed because milestone payments have not been made for incomplete work (i.e. May payment not made because no work completed)? Some of these companies are possibly in financial distress, so having a court approved lien would be seen as an “asset” allowing the companies to...

The more pictures I see from various angles, I am starting to come to the conclusion that NOT theming the BBB was the right decision (and may have been more of a conscious decision and not simply cost cutting). Once the decision was made to build this ride in this location, there is no theming...

I believe those who stay for 3 nights already get a card, this is just adding an AR Mickey code to it. Sending cards to everyone would exponentially increase the number of mailings (and likely create multiple mailings to many guests).

Security is more about deterrent than prevention. Having multiple layers creates more opportunity to be "caught". Bag screen, metal detector, entrance gate. Spacing out those barriers also makes it more difficult for someone to try and bolt past security. The more security/cast members you...

What about the canopy and show building being black?

What about a new division of Disney focusing on adults (without kids)? More standalone DVCs, retrofit one of the old ships, more romantic or adventurous vacation destinations. Still something very much Disney (brand oriented) but bridging the gap between kids and families.

I would guess there will still be bus service, just not direct bus service between locations served by the Skyliner. Disney would not add the Skyliner without either being able to reduce busses or increase overall capacity. When one form of transportation goes down, busses provide ability to...

It says in honor of her 90th Anniversary, but Minnie and Mickey first appeared in Steamboat Willie on November 18, 1928 correct? So it's a little early. They always make a big deal of Mickey's birthday in November, so do they just celebrate Minnie on National Polka Dot Day so she has her own day?

The problem with JC Penny was the Exec didn’t understand a basic principle of clothing retail. People don’t want a $10 shirt. They want a $25 shirt for $10 even if it’s the same shirt. I don’t think Disney is trying to copy Apple’s minimialistic design, what they are trying to implement is a...

There is no sense in using logic when it comes to opinions on a discussion board because for every opinion, there are 10 other views with similar and contrasting perspectives. There are those that wish the original Mr. Toad's Wild Ride would return, while others think the theming and...

No, I just put the psychological welfare of thousands of children into consideration for not shutting down the park sooner than necessary. At the parks, 'little susie' can eat and run around until being locked up in a hotel room for 24 hours. You close the parks early and the resort kitchen...

It is not just a matter of costs. You have tens of thousands of guests on property. The parks not only provide entertainment, but food, amenities, and space for all those people to go. If you close the parks too early, you can have thousands of guests overwhelm the resorts and run out of food...

What is the primary reason that an estimated 20% of original show building will not be used by the new attraction? Layout (simple layout instead of using every niche), physical restrictions (support columns or uneven floors), smaller sets (projection screens v physical sets), future expansion...

Except I don't think that is the reason for "shutting down" the attraction. The studio theme is now gone. Instead of a "working" studios or movie themed rides, you now enter the world of the movies. Galaxy's Edge, Andy' bedroom and back yard, a haunted hotel, a limo to a concert, a theater in LA...

What Marni is suggesting is that the by-pass will not be used to get to/from the theater. Guests will use Center Street which will be opened up to allow access. So the by-pass gates remain shut during normal operation. I would assume additional gates or crowd control methods will be added to...

Tron will draw more people to an already crowded park. The theatre will provide extra capacity to the park without significantly increasing attendance. So, they are adding a "short" ride that will have a long standby line and a theatre with a shorter wait and longer show. I don't think its...

If they put in a ride like Mr. Toad's themed to Monster's Inc or Peter Pan themed to The Incredibles, I can only imagine the outrage over the lack of inovation, low capacity, and doing it on the cheap.

The rendering looks to me like a quick 3D model put together for the presentation. This may have been one of those last minute changes and they did not have time to develop artwork. I would suspect updated artwork at some point and the final product to contain more details, color variation, and...

While I agree with you, it's also true that the original Disneyland and Magic Kindon used much of the existing IP at the time. Even Small World and CoP were recycled rides. Today there is vastly more IP to utilize. I don't think it's bad if they combine the talents of the studios with WDI...

Walt had nothing to do with the version of EPCOT that was built. This never was his vision to begin with.
