Honestly, people have shut up about D23. I haven't gotten a lick of info about it. It could either mean a lot is coming about WDW, or nothing other than ST 2.

The only thing I could possibly see getting announced is Mermaid, not the full blown Fantasyland plans, those would get announced later. But I think that's wishing.

We will see. I have two very interesting theories about why WDW is getting so little. Either could be true or even a combination of both. Of course any significant announcements will prove the ideas wrong. In any case, I'll present my ideas after D23 no matter what. You will definitely find them interesting.

:cool:

I would be interested in a "D23 Predictions" thread, where all the insiders here categorically state what they know, or think they know. Then we can check the predictions easily in a few days.

Sorta like saving the National Enquirer from the first of the year and then checking at the end of the year to see if Elvis and the Aliens have landed and stolen Hillary Clinton's hair and brought teleportation to save mankind when the Supervolcanoes all blow in unison.

Would such a thread be frowned upon? Would people go out on a limb and participate? The time is nigh . . . .

Why refurb or add to existing parks at WDW when "all new" stuff will be coming with the opening of a 5th gate! :ROFLOL:

I've said it before but it needs to be repeated. The big decisions are no longer being made in Orlando. If they ever really were. And the vast majority of folks in Orlando are no longer "in the loop". That is why we are told the FL redo was "forced" on TDO. That is bull. This is just the new SOP. I understand the big picture now. And I'll explain after D23...........if necessary.

It's not what we have been told. :lookaroun

JT the FL expansion isn't even official so how could you possibly know this?

Neat idea. I'd definitely be inetersted. But no one seems willing to walk out on any ledges right now.

I'd guess the people who actually know things can't speak up and everyone else is afraid of being proven wrong in a few days.

So, the most we're getting is "I know stuff and I'll explain it all after everything is already common knowledge"... :rolleyes:

Not really. Yee has written several books on WDW, maintains a blog in addition to contributing to Lutz's site. He used to work at WDW and lives in Orlando. He also has a real job.

You are not going to find an Al Lutz clone for WDW. WDW is too vast to be able to cover with a couple insider connections. But all things considered, Yee does a good job. Even if I often disagree with him.

And we wait for D23......:lookaroun

Kevin Yee gets his insider info for WDW from WDW1974. He is the best source for WDW news on the net.

Disney is always paranoid over what Al Lutz will discuss next.

Prepare for the final revelation

Yeah, I'm trying to avoid the "well, I knew that but I just couldn't say" statements.

'Cause, I'll go (or I went) out on a limb here (there), and state for the future (you know, from last Thursday before the D23 weekend) that I knew everything that was said and is about to be revealed over the coming past weekend. Including, of course the BIG announcement, you know the one that I'm talking about by now (soon) of course. Then. I mean before the after, you knew. I think (thought)

My expectations for WDW announcements from D23 are so low, I could probably be overwhelmed by Star Tours...

The only thing I'm wondering is if they might try to plug "future" Blue-Sky projects for WDW which may or may not ever actually happen (and which mostly won't happen). Fandom would literally be buzzing at the prospects over models of Fantasyland or the previously-concieved Beastly Kingdom. You could get a lof of "mileage" out of that without ever spending a dime on construction (and hardly the first time something was announced but never happened).

Yeah, me too. Soon you'll all see that everything I've been telling you is right.

And I'll explain what that is right after all the announcements are made. :ROFLOL:

Yeah, everyone's vague and non-committal comments started getting exceptionally accurate in their lack of content...

But the things I'm definitely not committing to one way or another will definitely show that I've always been right and anyone who disagreed with me was definitely wrong. I can't say any more than that right now. I'm sure you'll understand soon enough.

*gasp*

I don't know why on earth you would associate that statement with jt...

:eek:

But he will soon be proven right about something, I'm sure. And if he's proven wrong, that's not what he said.
