New Photos of Angelina Jolie as Maleficent are magnificent

Not sure how to link to this, but there are new photos of Angelina Jolie as Maleficent in the UK Daily Mail that show her in action on a harness flying around.

She looks fantastic magnificent in them!

I've long wanted a coaster at WDW themed to Maleficent. It's one of those things I want that will probably never happen because they make too much sense. Of all the Disney cartoons, Sleeping Beauty has the perfect look and action sequence for an E-ticket ride.

* the queue would be a maze of thorns leading to Maleficent's forbidden fortress (which would be on top of the ride's show building, with rock work and a forced perspective Maleficent castle on top).

* in the queue, each of the fairies (green, red, and blue) would make appearances as either animatronics or on video screens somehow, encouraging guests to help Prince Phillip defeat the dragon and save Princess Aurora

* Maleficent's goblins, raven, and other minions would peek out throughout the queue to give mild scares

* ride vehicles themed to look like you are riding Prince Phillip's white horse and you fill the role of the Prince

* coaster zips and zooms through thorns and the ruins of the forbidden fortress

* climaxes with battle against Maleficent in dragon form with the orange-green fire

* ending sees the rescue of Aurora and the blooming of the thorns into roses

* exit the ride into a rose garden (as opposed to the thorn forest you entered).

* rose garden exit would be really great if placed next to a new Alice attraction (or a Queen of Hearts restaurant like in Tokyo)

The more I see about the new Maleficent movie the more I can't help but hope for a Maleficent E-ticket coaster like this at WDW in the space that is occupied by the Speedway.

Why do YOU have an attitude saying "This has already been posted" when it wasn't already posted?

Try not to jump the gun and say something is posted when it hasn't been. In your rush to say "This has already been posted" you missed the fact these are new pictures that came out today.

I think you should actually look at the pictures first and check to see if they were posted or not before declaring "This has already been posted".

I believe they were referring to a thread more so than the photos.

Then they should be clear on what they are doing when jumping in like that. Neither the pictures nor the link to the new article were posted anywhere.

If someone wants to correct someone like that, the person should say "There's already a thread for this". I did not see a thread for it already so I posted it so others could enjoy the photos.

There was no need to say "This has already been posted" when the information I was providing was not in fact already posted.

I just think it's rude to snap at someone like that, especially when the person is WRONG and the information was not already posted.

Well, welcome to the forums. Perhaps they could have been more expansive in their post.....

The flip side, of course, is that one could always do a search to see if there's been any photos from this film posted in a thread before to prevent such comments.

I don't have an attitude now and I didn't have one then. I don't even see how me giving you a link, saying it was already posted can be taken as me having an attitude, but ok. Sorry if you took it that way. Are we done now?

I did search and I did not see one. If I had, I would have posted the link there.

I was only trying to be helpful and share these photos because they are very exciting.

I did not expect to get a "This has already been posted" slap from someone who didn't even bother to check if these photos really were posted already.

The pictures are interesting and new, but it is customary to post new information relating to a subject in a thread already discussing the subject.

Please try to be more clear when you rush to correct someone. This is not Twitter. You aren't in a competition to say things in 140 characters or less. Just a few more words could have turned "This has already been posted" into "There is a thread already posted on photos from Maleficent"...and then you could have included a link to that thread.

THAT would have been helpful. Not sure what your intent was in doing what you did, but it sure was not as helpful as it could have been.

Again, I think you were simply being told that there was an ongoing thread about this, albeit in another forum, that perhaps you overlooked. I don't believe there was any sort of "attack" intended.

A slap? Are you kidding me? I directed to a thread that was concerning the subject and that's a slap? Wow.

Just a warning, users direct users to threads a the time. It's a normal thing here so don't be upset should someone direct you to another thread again.
