You don't give an alcoholic a bottle of whiskey and expect him not to drink. Why would you expect WDI moneyholics to be any different?

Evan think of past budget SSE desent, BK, Excavator, LOW, no good will come from this!

And I get tarred as the Doom and Gloomer!:rolleyes::D:lol:


Eh...I'm not worried...YET. This is something big they are being forced to do by Glendale. With their supervision, it'll be done right. Just look at DCA.

Well, WDI aren't moneyholics, it is TDO. WDI were the ones pushing for the expansion while TDO and Jay Rasulo were not with it. That's what they say occured.

Now, as for this getting "trimmed", I am tired of it. Simply tired of it. We got a "trimmed" Space Mountain refurb, and now this... It's simply uncalled for and unecessary. Makes me want to send Disney soooooooo many hate mails, it's not even funny..!

As for the blueprints getting leaked, I don't know how we got so many leaked blueprints. Wonder if it's just Disney doing it on purpose I really don't think so though.

Exactly. With them running the show for this, I really don't feel the need to get worried...Yet..

Curious, what has WDI vastly overspent on?

They followed HM's budget and look what they made.

HM was an aberration, in all honestly.

Whylightbulb told a story about how a project manager wanted to spend a few extra hundred dollars on a different shade of paint.

No, no, you misunderstand what people are saying. By moneyholics, people are saying that WDI tends to overspend and never seems to get the bang out of their bucks, not that they look to spend the least as possible. They tend to let egos get in the way of progress.

Ahh... Okay... Well, I don't know why but for some reason I know this expansion won't turn out be what we have hoped it would. Watch it really get trimmed..:(

Don't get too down. It was never going to look exactly like the concept art. There will be cuts here and there, that's just the reality of things. It'll still be beautiful.

:wave:

Well, I am sure that it will get cut. As you said it is the reality of things, but what I fear is the amount of what they are going to cut. Let's hope they don't cut TOO much.

They can't to be completely honest.

You cut the theming on this thing, all the little touches, and that highlights the lack of actual attractions in it.

Seriously, don't worry.:lol:

It actually has quite a lot of attractions to it for an expansion :shrug:

Well yes it does. As a matter of fact, it has a lot!

-Be Our Guest Restaurant
-Gaston's Tavern
-Belle's father's house
-Beast's Castle
-Cinderella's Chateau (don't know the show name for this one)
-Aurora's Birthday Surprise
-Dumbo's Circus
-Pixie Hollow
-And lastly TLM ride
-If you wanna count the retheming of things like the teacups and the Pooh area then I guess that would go here.

Now if you are talking rides then it's a totally different story.

Attractions=9(more if you count the more subtle changes)
Rides=1
Eateries=2

EDIT: How would Cinderella be a true attraction? Legit question no sarcasm or rudeness intended.

I'm going to take your things one at a time.

First off, I really don't consider restaraunts "attractions". It's a great thing that they are getting built, the MK needs them badly, but they aren't "attractions".

As for Belle's Fathers House, is that the story thing? If so...eh. I really don't consider that an attraction.

-Beast's Castle

Not an attraction. Merely a facade for the restaurant.

-Cinderella's Chateau (don't know the show name for this one)

It's a show with the transformation of Cindy and the training for boys. A complete, well thought-out addition.

-Aurora's Birthday Surprise

Sorry, don't consider coloring cards an attraction.

-Dumbo's Circus

It's still just Dumbo. An awesome upgraded Dumbo, but Dumbo none the less.

-Pixie Hollow

Maybe. We'll see what it actually entails.

-And lastly TLM ride

Obvious.

-If you wanna count the retheming of things like the teacups and the Pooh area then I guess that would go here.

I do not, as these are the things I would first expect to be cut.

The more aesthetics they cut, the more people are going to see there's not a whole lot of substance behind the expansion.

(Again, I like the expansion.)

I count

TLM
BatB Restaurant
Belle M&G
Cinderella M&G
Extra Dumbo
Pixie Hollow (if it happens)

5 solid, or so it appears, attractions- 1 being an e-ticket.... pretty good expansion.

It's not like we need some masive expansion like HKDL/DCA

Damn me not being able to edit posts.

To clarify my last post, I think the park still needs more rides. Not necessarily as big as HK or DCA, but close.
