    My son just returned from Japan and visited TDS..1 boy's opinion..

    the irony is that most of the creative stuff in TDL passes through the creative minds here in Florida, especially a lot of the entertainment stuff.

    Why Doesn't Moracco or Norway light up for Illuminations?

    it was money. they also had spent a lot of money to get it what was there to do what they wanted to for RoE, nevermind put in a whole new country. The guy that co-produced the show actually lectured about RoE and if he were to make a BS story, i think he would do better that saying they just...

    Without a car, can you live, work, and play at WDW?

    Lynx is ok. I don't use it but I tend to study/analyze cities and urban growth. Comparitely, It has a lot to be desired for. It's really designed for the poor and people who don't mind waiting all day for a bus that smells like hell. Not the most professional-friendsly. I visit Chicago...

    Article on Universal-Disney

    i think at one point UNiversal Studios did in fact blow D/MGM out of the water. THre used to be a plethora of production, faux production that looked legit, lots of streetmo and their cityscapes (esp NY) are incredible. Now, almost all of that is gone. the only thing better is the cityscapes...

    Contemporary Demolition Permit Filed

    Well, kinda, you can see it from Liberty Square and parts of main street since they killed some trees a few years ago. ALso keep in mind that the new tower is going to be next to the tower where now you see nothing but sky. If you can barely see the N corner of the orginal tower, what...

    Contemporary Demolition Permit Filed

    i think what upsets me the most is that this tower will most likely be visible from all of if not most of magic kingdom. that totally defeats the purpose of why the magic kingdom is where it is and the thousands of acres that surround it. I guess DVC feels that few more extra units and the $...

    castle color ?

    I was told that the reason for the new color was to give it more contrast to the sky, make it pop out more, esp in pictures. i gues behind a blue sky the white/very pale pink gives it more contrast, esp on overcast days. the only thing i don't like is the real pink towards the bottome near the...

    for the past few years the opening comet shot comes from one of the perimeter launches (the one near Rose & Crown) which someone already said was NOT ALFs. So which is it?

    Big Huge Fireball in Epcot

    Not to stir the pot, wdw magic, but i believe you might be mistaken. I've seen a lot of the behind the scenes stuff of ROE, both in person and on TV, I"ve spoken with Mr. Dorsey, and the guy who hired him and co-produced the show. In fact, he was a mentor of mine while I did an inernship doing...

    Big Huge Fireball in Epcot

    you can tell if the pyro is ALF or not based on watching them go up. If you see the trail (or that little spark on the end as it goes up) it isn't ALF. Most of what comes out of the 4 main barges is ALF. ALl the ones that shoot out in different directions are (scattering bees (pink things...

    EPCOT failed - Epcot is great!

    nicely said, original poster. you make valid points. however, i have to make a counterpoint. Epcot isn't supposed to be another fairytale park with magical characters. It's supposed to be an infusion of real word cultures, technology, and situations presented in a way to engage our...

    Epcot / Germany River Ride

    I'm not sure how much can/will be done. Keep in mind that anything big would mess up that visual balance of WS. Theming would be something that would have to be thought out carefully since WS is supposed to be about culture and history, not neeccessarily nearly pi$sing your pants on a crazy...

    Location of a fifth park

    A 5th park would saturate the market. Just b/c the list of options gets bigger doesn't mean the vacations get longer. I swear I've replied back to the same topic in at least 3 threads. Can we soon drop the discussion of the 5th gate and discuss the 4 that already exist.

    Nemo bad for Epcot?

    the world showcase is supposed to make you feel the charm and ambience of the countries in a specific time. I'm not sure iof an e-ticket ride makes much sense there.

    Universal Diss!

    Nobody bashes SeaWorld and the other attractions b/c their management has class, doesn't bash it's competition and works on expanding their market as well as catering to the niche markets (brewing education, wildlife, etc). I spent 7 years working at UO and at one time wanted to make a career...
