DHS Makeover - What we know so far.....

[discos]

The current thought on this board is that the LMA area will be used for construction storage and laydown areas for construction of SWL and TSL. Once those two lands are completed, then Phase 3 would go there. Of course those are all rumors, thoughts, ideas, etc...

If LMA is what we all believe to be a staging/construction area for SWL/TSL will they completely demolish LMA or will it remain up? If they demolish it, how long do you think it would take for that area to cleared and ready to use as a staging area?

Demolition I believe.

If Catastrophe Canyon is any indication it will remain untouched for around 15 months.

Demolition I believe.

Would it happen right away?

Since they broke ground at Pandora with navi shovels are we to believe they will break ground for SWL with ion cannons?

Light shovels or saber... picks. I'll show myself out.

I am not being rude. If I posted that Walt Disney was closing down on of its four parks tomorrow would you not want to know the facts that I am using to make that claim.

There are people on this forum that have outstanding track records of providing accurate information that is not always "public knowledge". @marni1971 is certainly near the top of that list. Those of us who have been reading this forum for years appreciate what he IS able to share with us, and accept that he sometimes cannot provide details and "proof" because of confidentiality concerns. You should be thanking him for what he brings to this forum, not calling him out and implying that he is just making things up.

And that is not his style to do big reveal of specifics...that belongs to our local Spirit!

And the borefest that Imagination 1.0 became with repeated visits.

Sacrilege! Heresy! Blasphemy! Other words!

Sorry. Just provoking a discussion.

Remember this at Epcot back in 2007

I do and it was FUN!

 

[ford91exploder]

Man, that guy has talent. If not SWL, hopefully something Disney.

Nah UNI at least they will give him a budget and a free hand to use it to create something amazing instead of something value engineered.

i havent but im going this summer and im pumped
i m a DVC guy staying on property at Universal this summer

which hotel?

 

[twebber55]

which hotel?

looks like Cabana Bay trying to talk to wife to splurge on upgrading to another hotel so we can have the express pass

Cabana Bay is nice. But those express passes are worth the splurge. We stayed at Royal Pacific last time and it was AMAZING. Would never stay any less than those three where you get it.

 

[Marlins1]

I agree - will only stay in one of the three that have unlimited Express Pass. Changes your entire vacation.

Agreed. The deluxes are also more convenient in terms of location as well which can be a time saver. The free Express Pass is just huge and worth the room cost to me.

Although the express pass is a terrible idea. An unlimited fast pass you pay $80 a person for?

I don't think I have worked on a project save for maybe a tract house that has not had a bit of both.

Client has a million dollar budget.

They tell the architect want they want and he designs a house.

The house goes out for pricing and comes in at 1.2 million.

They start tweaking the plans to get the price down.

One of the clients must have the hand crafted mahogany cabinet handles so the budget goes up.

One of the clients really wants a new Ferrari and the budget goes down.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

i really want a new Ferrari....or an F40...yeah a used Ferrari F40 would work...because....life insurance...ok back on track.

Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey was absolutely ground breaking and if I remember correctly it didn't even break $100 million by itself.

Something is seriously wrong with Disney's ability to spend efficiently.

this is something that has been pointed out over and over again...Comcast can spend 1 dollar for every three Disney spends and get a better attraction ect. and after the botched take over....Comcast is out for blood.
