Is he as highly regarded as Lee seems to be in respect to rumors coming true? Just wondering because I'm trying to gather a list of folks who are the ones people turn to when looking for the "truth".

I will look forward to meeting the Hatbox Ghost. :king: 
Of several friends and neighbors who've visited the Haunted Mansion since the changes in the queue and end of the ride, they have ALL welcomed the changes and described them as terrific. I'll take their happiness over the grumblings of some around here and I look forward to seeing the revisions to the queue, the ending AND Mr. Hatbox Ghost on my next trip. :lol: :sohappy:

Lee may be able to speak to that better than myself. He has also said that the "hollow" attraction announcements aren't happening either.

AMEN!! Sometimes the energy that some of these fanboys put into their dissention is exhausting.

You want exhausting, look at the link he posted to the main "rant" about this tiny little insignificant thing.
I am known for being verbose, and I have a fine attention to detail and appreciate similar, but I got such a headache after reading it after 20 minutes I had to stop out of sheer frustration.
I mean, it goes beyond paint chips, it's basically looking at the Haunted Mansion at the molecular design level...that doesn't even really exist except in his mind.

Theme Park One is very wired into the DL resort. Trust what he says in that area.
Other things...opinions vary. Some of his statements directly contradict things I hear from very well-placed people. Time will tell.
As always on a Disney rumor board...things change. What was true yesterday may not be true tomorrow.
As for the HBG...for what it's worth...I can attest to the fact that molds for his face are on WDW property as we speak. Have been for quite some time.

The HM additions are harmless fun, and the new hitchhiking ghosts are phenomenal. I get annoyed with those sorts of useless fanboy rants (they're somewhat scary) when other things (Splash, UOE, Imagination) need legitimate work.

I feel a bit bad as I don't mean to keep ragging on him, he is a dedicated fan and I do feel where he is coming from, but I do agree with the end of your statement and I echoed it initially. Haunted Mansion is hands-down the most loved, has the most attention given, and the most well-maintained attraction on Disney property on both coasts. It sees yearly additions now, is kept in great shape, and gets better and better every year.
Like I believe you would agree, I'd like to see that kind of attention lavished on other attractions as well that are in much, much worse shape.

I wish they would extend this way of thinking/maintaining attractions across the board...or atleast across the major e-tickets in the parks. I get not having to constantly "plus" the Mad Tea Party...but small yearly additions/changes to the Mountains, HM, SSE would be a welcome surprise.

was just going to post. very spooky and completely awesome!!
I don't have much to add about the Hatbox Ghost (they've been saying "it's coming" for years; I assume eventually it will pop up). I just wanted to say that however verbose, passionate, and obsessed HMF may be about the particular topic of the new queue ... he's also mostly correct, in my opinion. It just doesn't make sense for story purposes. Story aside, I also assume anything that Disney encourages the guests to touch will be in a constant state of broken and/or b-mode (so effects like the books are a waste of time), and eventually shut off. And parts, like the poet and the music crypt are downright awful.
Normally, I wouldn't even bother to comment, but since every one seems to be ganging up on him in this particular thread, I don't mind speaking in his defense.

My respect level for you just went up. The Internet is indeed a volatile place.

That's weird. This thread links to the video and that video links to this thread at 4:13 into the video.

There's a hole cut into a black wall with a tarp between the ballroom and attic scenes. Could this be his location instead of the brightly lit attic?

Here's a thought that just occurred to me: could this have anything to do with Guillermo del Torro's upcoming HM movie? After all, it was mentioned the HBG would be a central character in the movie.
