    Help us find MGM Panoramic Poster

    Since they are discontinued, I would have to say ebay is your best bet. I am slightly addicted to ebay, so I'll keep a look out and let you know if I come across any.

    GMR Finale Music

    Just looking for some help with the music that plays in the finale montage of the Great Movie Ride. I know the obvious ones like "The Entertainer" and "Star Wars", but I'm wondering about the names/performers of the other pieces. Thanks a bunch.

    Out of curiosity, how much does each of these maps cost?

    Backlot Tour May Go Bye Bye

    A very good point, but all the more reason that this one ride should be removed in order to create room for 2 or 3 rides. Plus, WWtbaM-PI, which was an interactive show but a show nonetheless, is going to be replaced with the rumored Midway Mania ride. If both were to occur, MGM could have as...

    Why does the Boardwalk have no atmosphere?

    I personally feel that the physical boardwalk has tons of atmosphere and restaurants and can be fun, but it seems to be designed more to work alone, as does Downtown Disney, than to work within the confines of presenting highly accessible amenities to guests of the Boardwalk Resort, whose...

    Studios Finger Scanners

    I personally preferred the "peace sign" scanners. Most of the cast members I saw just asked the person to insert their hand and then gently took that person's hand and quickly corrected it, which was more often than not just moving their hand further in. The one finger scanners, on the other...

    Golden Ticket Awards 2006

    Now that you mentioned it, I do remember that specific part of the ride, but the fact is that I still cannot imagine consider that "stalking" the castle. If anything, Ice and Fire stalk each other since those 2 share 3 near misses instead of one.

    Golden Ticket Awards 2006

    Again, thanks for the compliment. You mentioned the lack of proper parkgoer distribution in MGM and I could not agree more. I honestly feel like most parkgoers take an imaginary shuttle that runs directly fromt he park gates down Sunset Blvd. to ToT and the RnRC, and then they get back on the...

    Golden Ticket Awards 2006

    As an aspiring film major, I hope you are right. As for Little Miss Sunshine, I had the chance to see that the other day and it really was a very good movie, and I think it allowed Steve Carrell to cement himself as a great comedic talent.

    Backlot Tour May Go Bye Bye

    According to Screamscape, there are currently plans to put in a new simulator based on The Simpsons, and it will tie in to the Simpsons movie to be released next year. Here is that link. Glad to be appreciated, and I noticed as I was writing it just how long it was becoming, but I decided...

    Value resorts???? Lots of questions...need help from other Disney nuts!

    I don't think you are nuts. While it's not the most imaginative of honeymoons since you live so close (no offense), I feel that the complete immersion and inclusiveness of staying on Disney property is an unmatchable experience that is well worth experiencing and is definitely different from...

    Value resorts???? Lots of questions...need help from other Disney nuts!

    I'm not entirely sure what you are asking by that first question, as I know not what it is that you think you need to do, but I would say look at the different value resorts on the Disney website. I think these resorts are especially good for your purpose, as you seem to be using your resort...

    Backlot Tour May Go Bye Bye

    I agree, the section for The Mummy was pretty lame, but I'm assuming that it will be the next section to be replaced since Revenge of the Mummy opened, but I haven't gotten the chance to see the section for The Fast and the Furious. The fact is though that their tram is very enjoyable, even with...

    Golden Ticket Awards 2006

    As a movie buff I could not pass on responding to your comment, though I will be bringing my own thread slightly off topic in doing so. In Hollywood today, I think there is a link between quality and profit, but more often than not they are inversely related as opposed to directly related. I...

    Day Beds at Beach Club

    I am 6'2" and have slept on the day bed at the Beach Club all 7 nights of both of our stays there, and I can say that they definitely are not that comfortable. I often found myself waking up at least once a night, but more often than not it was because the air conditioning vent was right over...

    Backlot Tour May Go Bye Bye

    There is no amount of improving that can fix the Backlot Tour. First, the decade old Pearl harbor spiel has to go, and I wouldn't mind if that was demolished as opposed to updated or replaced with something similar. My reason for this is that after most people have seen it once, they no longer...

    Golden Ticket Awards 2006

    I'm not being sore about it, as I like both DDRSF and SM, but I just prefer SM and think it's the better ride. I agree that they are not both exactly the same, as Disney went more for theming and Universal decided to focus on the concept of a log flume with a twist, but I just personally don't...

    Golden Ticket Awards 2006

    IOA slips through the cracks because, though it doesn't have a collection of 8 or 10 world class coasters, it has two (or three, depending on how you look at it) in the Hulk and Dueling Dragons, and that alone attracts people. Since those people are already in the park, they ride things like...

    Golden Ticket Awards 2006

    Amusement Today has just released the results of their 2006 Golden Ticket Awards. I know Disney does not usually fare well here, since the awards are run and voted on by serious coaster enthusiasts and Disney is not a coaster haven, but there were some real positives for Disney anyway, which...
