Cuts coming to every area of parks and resorts - thanks to Shanghai and Paris

[Matt_Black]

The importance of history really has no bearing on the relevancy of your initial query. What's the connection? Disney's response to Euro Disney not making money? Shanghai Disneyland's origins going back to that time?

Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. I don't know about you, but I certainly don't need to our nation to suffer through the Teapot Dome Scandal again.

Were there massive cuts leading up to WDw 25th? Would be interested to know. I went for WDW 25th and it was something else.

No. This is unprecedented.

That was 20 years ago. How is it relevant?

Because it killed expansion plans for WDW tomorrowland was supposed to get a massive upgrade ..

I would go to Shanghai solely to ride the Tron coaster. That 10 second video looks incredible.

Not sure on length, but the Rapid ride looks solid, and the animatronics for Pirates appear to be very cool as well.

Any chance Tron comes stateside...? Given the Chevy association.

Rapids layout (and thus length) is very close to Grizzly Rapids at DCA. The kicker is the indoor showscene(s?) feature the giant AA croc. PotC is the real clincher and am eager to see reviews/video. Some first day reactions to PotC, Tron and Soarin from one lucky visitor:

I'd like to see Tron at Epcot, just as a new addition and not at the expense of an existing Pavillion. For some reason it seems a sure thing that it will come in and replace the Energy Pavillion, eventually. If they could somehow find a way to redo Wonders of Life, update Energy and build this thing it would be perfect...but it seems unlikely.

Tron might be a blessing in disguise. It's perfect for a computing/programming pavilion and might bring in a needed Future World redo.

Other than the blue lights that look ripped from Space Mountain, what's impressive about the Tron video?

How the people sit in the vehicles seems pretty cool.

Can't judge too much more than that on such a short clip.

Its not anything new. Its a steeplechase coaster rethemed. (not very comfortable I might add).

I never said it was new. I just said it looks cool.

I believe someone mentioned it for a possible Epcot attraction.

... It has Tron in it? I mean, what more do you need? Tron! Tron fights for the Users!
