Hench was even the last of his kind, he was one of a kind. We were actually talking about something like this at work yesterday: could someone like Walt even make it in his company today? I originally took the stance of "no", but was rebuffed by older guys who talk about cycles, and Steve Jobs...

Now that we've hit November, this is my favorite Easter Egg:

Samantha Brown has cost me countless $9.50 receipts from the France kiosk. Ever since her show that featured the Grand Marnier slushee, my wife canNOT walk by that kiosk without getting one.

Great point, I wonder how many in upper management know when Walt's birthday is.

There's no reason figment "ears" should be sold on Main St, and people like Tony realize that. I don't recall when everything became 'Disney Parks' (did you happen to see Werner Weiss' April fools post this year?), but it signaled a shift in approach, and not for the better.

I could be tied to the big press events surrounding 12/6.

I'm curious; what would your reaction have been had you never seen pictures or updates about the expansion? If you heard that they were building, and went to the park one day walked into what you just experienced?

How bad does it suck that Tony Baxter has to wait for movie returns to build something?

The back story was never meant for public consumption, it was only supposed to be an achor for any questions that came up during construction/theming.

There's a port hole from one of the Nautilus ships in the Ariel's grotto scene of the ride.

I still think a Main St. based on American Graffiti would be cool too.

If you're going to develop an attraction, you have to have a back story. Since we were making a three dimensional animated movie, you have to know what the rocks, and trees, and ground, and things would look like.

Um, actually that was pointed directly at me. I didn't think this was a big enough story to warrant credit to the water bearer (and I wouldn't post someone's name without their consent). You can believe me or not, I was just stating a fact about the four pages of conjecture I had just read.

That brings up a funny point. Disney's version of The Little Mermaid isn't set in Europe, where Andersen hails from. In researching the themed queue for the new Fantasyland attraction, it became apparent that the setting for the movie wasn't clear. Prince Eric's castle looks kind of...

I haven't been here in a while, is it worth reading 51 pages of this?

Not that it will make much difference to half of the posters in here, but the water did come from 20K. The person who collected it is a long time Imagineer, and big Disney fan.

Nope, it's there all the time.

I know the 27th is a WDI preview, it might be for construction workers too.

There are a few; Gaston's fountain, mermaid queue, inside Be Our Guest. For the best one, you'll have to wait for the sun to hit it on Mickey's birthday.

It's a cast breakroom and entertainment green room.
