Official Disney Parks Blog to host live chat with Fantasyland Imagineer Chris Beatty

[SyracuseOrange]

uhoh, he just said he worked on the Studios in Paris.

Uh oh?

 

[DocMcHulk]

I think that Great Goofini artwork is new!

It's not. I've seen it before.

 

[DocMcHulk]

"Will there be more water added to Fantasyland through this expansion?"
Just look at the concept art and models... yes.

No that one has been out for a long time
It is at

Now this is a good question: "how much work with force perspective have this new expansion? and how many imagineers work in a normal detail?"

 

[ptaylor]

"Will there be more water added to Fantasyland through this expansion?"
Just look at the concept art and models... yes.

perhaps that question was more directed at "are we actually going to get what is in the concept art".

 

[ptaylor]

Pleased to see them doing this, but text chat just come across like talking to a robot. They would be better just letting him doing a video presentation in my opinion.

Who wastes their time asking about WATER in Fantasyland!?!?!?! :fork:

 

[Pioneer Hall]

What inspires you?

Really? This isn't E-Harmony.

 

[ptaylor]

Nothing personal against Chris here or any of the Imagineers, but people seem to think they are gods. There are some GREAT imagineers, but there also some lousy ones, and many who technically shouldn't even be called an Imagineer. It is more a result of merging of the construction arm into WDI.

I think we are interested to know if we will be getting the amount of water that is depicted in the concept art. There are varying theories on this.

Uh oh?

Universally known as Disney's worst theme park.

 

[DocMcHulk]

garbage cans?

Oh, I thought maybe there was more to your comment than that. I've been to DLP, and I didn't think it was that bad. IMO, Hong Kong looks worse, just due to a very small number of attractions.

 

[djkidkaz]

He wouldn't even give a straight forward answer on whether we're getting new garbage cans or not. LOL

 

[SyracuseOrange]

garbage cans?

That was actually my favorite question so far. Too bad we didn't get a real answer.

 

[ScoutN]

You have to wonder whether or not English is the primary language of some of these people. The grammar is that of Google Translator.

 

[ptaylor]

Well he is no Joe Rohde. None of the answers are giving me any excitement about this project at all. Anyone know where Chris fits in the chain of command on this expansion?

 

[ScoutN]

A great place to pick up a souvenir? Really?

 

[gamblepsu]

Ha, a 'Great Place' to pick up souvenirs. :hurl:
