I didn't know about the Mickey until a post from about 2-3 years ago here complaining about the BAH in which someone mentioned how it killed the "Hidden Mickey" in the hub. I almost argued with the person saying there wasn't one there but pulled up Google Earth first (and saved myself the embarrassment). LOL!Holy Cow! I never realized there was a Mickey there.
Wand removal started on 7.9.07 and I think the entire structure was gone by early september.
I'd imagine that in addition to the TCM thing, they'd probably want it down pretty quickly as this is weirdly getting a lot of bad press, huh? Or do they not really care about that?
He's got some bushy eyebrows in that second picture.
It's odd how much press it's getting for sure but I'm not sure that it will change their plans. That said, with the wand removal taking less than 2 months and being a bit more complex, I just can't see a valid reason for it to take too long!
Except with those trees...Mickey effectively had Groucho Marx's eyebrows...
That was my thought too when they first announced they were removing it. I have a lot of CM friends and was shocked that so many of them were upset about it.
It could help. I think they'd still look like a Korean War memorial though.
That idea actually would work very well against the backdrop of UoE to the left and tie it in nicely.
I've always said that those stones looked like a memorial of some sort. Glad to see it's not just me!
Okay...which one of y'all thinks we need a new thread titled:
Depends on when TCM really wants to start promotion of their sponsorship of GMR. Hoping and hearing that it's sooner than later.
I've often thought that the etchings should have been done in color... like a big mural.
Maybe it'll happen by Epcot's 40th...
Yeah, that's why Hench gave it that curve. Make it seem a little less grim.Epcot Leave a Legacy:
