While there may be "creative differences", I would assume the problems are more than likely due to the movies running behind schedule/put on hold. I'm sure indifference by the fan community doesn't help.
I imagine Disney will still keep this project on a developmental front burner until the movies actually come out (or until a time when Disney has a more educated idea on how the movies are shaping up and how this project will be received). They'll probably keep imagineers on it for the foreseeable future.
That way, if it truly appears they're sitting on something that could be huge success, they can greenlight it and get it up and running quickly (which is why they'll go ahead and move FotLK anyway.
Surely, Cameron can pull the plug at any time if he doesn't feel Disney is living up to their side of the deal. I imagine Disney will keep him placated just enough to keep the project until they're either ready to move on it or give it up. Regardless, Disney would have to be the best possibility Cameron has to see his theme park vision become a reality. I don't see Six Flags ponying up to the bar anytime soon.
) why the hell haven't you done a column on Disney playing with the AC? Get some talking head from Disney to talk about going green (instead of simply acting out of greed for the green) and then ask people how they feel about waking up covered in sweat because their AC shut off. Disney has been playing this game in Florida, off and on for a decade. You know, there was a time when they NEVER shut the a/c off in a show building like PoC. Do you know how long it takes on summer days to get it feeling even remotely comfortable in those? ... You're missing something that Disney should be royally bashed for and I certainly wouldn't expect someone like Jason Garcia to write about it ... and my pal Merfie simply wants to be the King of the EPCOT Fanbois, so he won't give them a shot. It might be a better column that reviewing another section of the AoA motel. Just a thought ...
