It's been a long time since I've seen a 9:00am to 12:00am operating hours for the Magic Kingdom, so I took a day trip out on Monday too like Grizz.
---------
Country Bear's audio system was very low, except for a few parts. Of course it could be that I was sitting underneath the trio on the wall and the air pressure was noticibly louder than the attraction itself. I was constantly looking behind at the LED display for those who need have hearing related problems, but overall a great audience response. At one point, the entire room was clapping.
Not only was the Brer Frog projector turned off, the audio was running earlier in the day. When I rode again, someone turned it off. The other projection inside the attraction featuring Brer Rabbit running up the hill was also off. Maybe they're both in the shop?
Haunted Mansion's graveyard scene scrim has moved again in the Opera scene before the Hitchhiking Ghosts creating a large visible spot of black light. Still audio problems with the unload area's narration.
The father in Scene One of the Carousel of Progress's neck skin material is jumping over the animatronic's clothing. One of the scrims has been pushed back too far and when a scene change occurs, the audience can see the wall push out. Scene Two has noticible problems with the father and son's eye blinking mechanism.
On Timekeeper, they still couldn't fix the LED display's Y2K problem with having the current year displayed or the lack of fog when the animatronic Nine Eye is "floating".
As expected, MAJOR bottlenecks due to SGE. The queue line needs to be much bigger to handle crowds like last Monday. I can only imagine what the lines were today and for the rest of the holiday week.
The TTA still has the same old audio when approaching Stitch and the Timekeeper audio has returned. Haven't seen anything from Alamo yet.
Space Mountain's exit cue video was playing on Monday after I rode it in the morning. The Single Rider line was also open earlier, but the current queue line does not work well to accomidate three seperate lines (six actually). A lot of the six seater cars left the station with four and five people before I made it to the singles line. This time they actually gave me a laminated fast pass with SINGLE RIDER on it, but most in the Single Riders line didn't grab one (and the operators didn't ask for it).
One final note and I need some assistance with this, but there were too small children with a "Light Up" type of toy that resembled something a parking assistant would be using and played a VERY annoying Christmas tune. Had two of them going on and off throughout COP and I wanted to ring their parent's heads off for purchasing them. Has anyone seen these being sold in the parks, because I'd like to put an end to this idea... evil little show stopping toys.
It was funny though, a Cast Member near the flagpole at Mainstreet had one of the hand operated spinning LED displays with the text "My hand hurts". That and as I was in line for Pirates, a father sang Heigh Ho instead of Yo Ho.

Super update, but I couldn't see all the pictures :lookaroun. The bandwidth had run out, but I'll carry on checking for their return.
Look for the photos to return later today if I don't have a chance this morning. =)djmatthews said:
Phil -- thanks for that information. Sorry CBJ sounded poorly to you. Although there are brand new speakers, the attraction has been hard to hear in certain areas. Perhaps Disney should invest in a sound system that can project to the entire theatre. =)
As far as TK's Y2K problem, I believe they left 2000 up on the machine because the Twin Towers are represented in the 360 footage.
Didn't notice the Hearse missing, Hoyt. . . I didn't get to ride HM.
I also noticed Nine Eye's fog problem. Leadline underwear? Check. . .

The Hearse was there and still horseless.
Grizz: That makes sense, with the whole Trade Tower thing, thanks!

Give me just a couple more hours!JJHale said:Great update Grizz. I don't get to the site too much lately because of work and it sure is nice to see a big Grizz Update waiting for me when I get here! Can't wait to see the rest of the photos.
They should be up very soon.

They can fix it, that wouldnt be the problem, the problem would be refilming the movie to edit out the twin towers in the background of the current day scene. The year is 2000 simply because it meshes with the video shown.
All photos back online as of 2:19 PM EST.
It seems to have been a mistake.maxime29 said:
Gregory - if I have time, I will post a review tonight. Depends on whether bad storms are coming/I get the chance. Otherwise, I'll have it up Saturday.
