I'm not trying to disappoint anyone here, but, don't keep your hopes too high for the much rumored ladder ride.
Apparently WDI is having an AWFUL time trying to theme the whole area.

Nope.. they're not...

Not only that but there's been a lot of trouble trying to solve the safety harness problem.

Already solved that one...

What my source tells me is that they just can't come up with a device that will allow you to climb UP but at the same time keep you from falling DOWN.

The whole problem IS solved

Also, trying to get the ladder rungs placed so that children and adults can both enjoy the ride has been an engineering nightmare.

At first Yes, it was some kind of a nightmare, but now the ride itself is CHAIR driven, with safety harnesses...
There you go....Solved again...

They can't figure out if the audio should be in English only or if there needs to be multi-lingual options.

Well English and spanish only...

Oh yeah, and I also know a whole lot more on this but I can't tell.

I know, or else you will be fired! sacked!!, and followed to the end of the galaxy and desintegrated!!!

The only thing they worry about is, where to get the budget ($250,000.000) from...
Unless they make it a "Donkey Kong ride", in that case "Billy Boy" will come up with the cash...

That house is the ONLY reason I ride that attraction endlessly. I must have at least 25 pictures of it.:lol:

This, unfortunately, is one of the saddest things I've EVER read. Quite funny, too. Kudos to you Sew!

Imagine if it were true.

I actually met a man once who has pictures of soft pretzels from different stores around the country. I mean, IT'S A SOFT PRETZEL, how different could most of them be? I'm sure they have skinny ones, thick ones, brown ones, salted one, etc... but fundamentally this fella had hundreds of pictures of cooked dough.

I like to mix the Smart Watermelon with the Kinley (I think it's the Kinley???)

Let me know some time and I'll walk over and grab one with you two.

Sorry. The Hey-Zeus thingy was a joke, not a clue, sorry.

I don't know, sounds like a cover up.

I think it is a Hecules themed attraction. I'm betting on it being Hades Underworld. It looks like a big pit and once you go down into it you can't get back out. This will mean ever increasing attendance figures for MGM (as the people in the pit count towards each day's attendance). At least there will be some cool animatronics down there to keep it interesting. There is actually a way out of Hades Underworld but it is a secret. All I can say is that it will involve the ladder. If this is successful they will be installing a similar ride at EPCOT to help with attendance.

Seriously though, I'll be down there in two weeks and I will let you know if there is anything new to see.

(If you don't hear from me it means I was right and got stuck in the pit )
