My point is the theme of it being of the era of the golden age of film has been dead for 15 years. 90% of the guests don't get it.

Its supposed to contain classic films: MP, Casablanca, Alien, IJ. Are all I would describe as classic films. I don't care what 90% of guests would think, they are the same rubes who go into Harry Potter demanding a coke and get into a hissy fit with TMs, seen it with my own eyes, when they can't.

90% of the guest didn't get it when it first opened. There was an immediate buzz about other movies, like the Godfather, for example, and people upset because it wasn't in there. The ability to think outside our own personal box doesn't come easy.

Moving this back to the Muppets...
There was a Muppets version of the GMR in the original plans. http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/The_Great_Muppet_Movie_Ride
Only Peter Pan and Frankenstein were in the concept art, but if (and that's a big if) they decide to bring this concept back for a quick flat ride, maybe they could bring in some other movies.
Also, here's the link to the GMR thread: http://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/...hip-deal-with-tcm-attraction-to-close.916184/

Slight update on Mama Melrose: some of their kitchen is undergoing refurb and their menu with have some modifications while this is going on.
Still no word on if Mama Melrose will have a theme change at some point, but again, I don't expect there will be any news until after the first of the year.

I read something about that on The Site That Shall Not Be Named, and I think they were just getting rid of flatbreads.
My mouse only squeaked that they had to take a few things off the menu temporarily because of the refurb. Flatbreads could be part or all of it at the moment. I don't know for sure as I haven't wandered that way myself yet but they might rotate things in and out as various equipment is available.

I find it strange that the Philo's Fish Co sign is still up near the fire escape.

Did the water tower get re-painted?
I can't tell - are those TVs under the overhang? If they are - I wonder what they might be playing - it would be fun if they had Muppet episodes (or clips) playing.

Well, sometimes it's hard to read through the pages of people moaning about this and that. I am please, here lately, that pictures are getting posted. Plus, it's great to see the progress over at the SOA. But thanks for confirming the water tower - looks good.

Photo update as of Saturday, Sept 17. You may have noticed in previous photos, but here is a better view of the newly installed red awning (with lettering) over the entrance.
