Here are some pics from the Orlando Sentinel's Theme Park Rangers http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/features_orlando/2009/09/disney-magic-kingdom-tomorrowland-transit-authority-space-mountain-pictures.html

According to the story, it was from the monorail. I am impressed they were able to get a clear shot though with it moving. I was wondering the same thing. I thought by default the 2nd driver is always at fault. Maybe the 1st driver had their own lane so that didn't need to slow down??

Good point. I am wondering after this, and the tragic monorail accident, if Disney will have to issue a huge report on their transportation safety. That or put out lots of PR along those lines to ease public worries. Or do you think most people still feel safe on Disney Transportation? I...

According to http://twitter.com/MarthaSugalski, WESH out of Orlando is supposed to have an update on during this hour's newscast. Here is a update from their website - http://www.wesh.com/news/20077865/detail.html.

Anybody hear of the bus collision near the Contemporary? Saw it on http://twitter.com/MomsPanelErin.

Mine is still going at http://disney.go.com/23/twenty_three/preview/index.html. 49 min, 36 secs and counting.

Coud be but I would think Disney would want everybody to see it at once, since I am sure they have the capacity to handle all the traffic. I guess we will know if in about 32 minutes our Eastern time zone peeps get the reveal!

When I checked this morning, the countdown ended at 1 Eastern. What website you go to?

Isn't the time going to be 1 ET still? That corresponds to the start of the annual meeting and the countdown. Or is it earlier?

Are these all from the Entertainment Weekly article speck? I have it at home but I haven't read it yet.

Good points speck. Very well put. I agree that Disney needs to go back to having an art-house type studio. Those studios can be very successful moneywise. Just look at Napoleon Dynamite, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, etc. And I figure if I am going to watch an independent movie, might as well...

With the downfall of the Weinsteins relationship with Disney and the previous collapse of the relationship with Pixar, I am wondering what everyone thinks is the reason. Do you think it was Eisner, Disney management in general, or just the nature of the business? My guess it's either general...

Oops posted my question before I looked at disneydata's post later on explaining it all! :lol: Sorry about that. Thank you disneydata though for the explanation! And I have to agree with Foolish Mortal, any day in WDW or the Magic Kingdom is better than the real world! :sohappy:

Is there ever a time when they close the parks to resort guests and passholders also? I have been to WDW during the summer peak season and I don't recall WDW staff ever not letting us in. Maybe during holidays??

Cool deal Dwarful. Thanks for the info. I guess I figure Disney staff is helpful with every other aspect of Disney World, why not add mail order to that list! :sohappy: Need to get something soon; going through WDW withdraw!

After talking with someone at the Laughing Place (who was extremely helpful), I think I am going to order something from them in the next few days. I will let y'all know how that goes and if it's a good place to purchase WDW merchandise from!

Thanks for all the suggestions! I think Laughing Place is what I was originally thinking of, but I am definitely going to check out all the places mentioned including the direct order. If anyone has more suggestions, keep them coming in! :sohappy: I am getting all giddy now. I am just...

Question: There is a place(s) online (I believe one used to be advertised on WDWMAGIC.COM) where you could buy stuff that is sold only at the parks (t-shirts, CD’s etc). It was a company in Florida that I recall and they got the merchandise directly from the parks themselves. Does anyone know...

Has anyone heard if any of the damage will be noticable to the public eye? As we all know, WDW prides itself on its upkeep and perfection. Thanks for all continued info!

Has anyone heard to what extent the recent hurricanes have damaged Disney World? I haven't been in the forums much the past few weeks so I apologize if this has been discussed elsewhere. The little bit I have seen on the forums is that damage is minimal. Does anybody how bad the damage is...
