So has the 12.3 Million been discussed in this thread. I was out all last week so might have missed it. I know jt has it in his signature.

It was discussed somewhere.

I think the general feeling was that it could be a number thrown out for some sort of legal reason. I could be wrong though, but it didn't seem like anyone had a good feeling what all the 12.3 entailed.

You could add a zero to it and it's the best thing that ever happened and Zeus himself will be handling the cars.

Or you could say it is accurate and TDO is using most of the money to eat more babies.

Take your pick which camp you want to believe. :shrug:

I know. The Saturday date is so convenient.:D Drive up Friday night, come back Sunday night, I don't miss class.:drevil:

As would I. I've met a few of our members on these boards, and it's great to talk WDW Politics in person. ;) :lol:

Hey...If they can shove us in tiny little pods for M:S...a room would be fine.:lookaroun

mine would be a quick hour flight. I dont do that drive anymore. It isnt cost efficient with the cost of fuel and the cheap round trip Southwest tickets out of Bham.

Yes, but you would not see the room unstretch. While the lights were still out after the Ghost Host says, "There's always my way," the room would revert back to its original form, making at seem as if everything that just happened...didn't.

Ahhh, i see what you mean. Yes, that would be cool.... but like Richard said, watching people hit the deck would be loads of fun.

I was expecting the refurb for SM/TTA to be in the 30-40 million range so the number announced by OrSen felt like a gut punch. Especially since they really are not investing in anything else right now. I have greatly diminished expectations of SM's refurb as a result.

I don't think I'll be buying new AP's anytime soon.

Now if they open a Blue Sky Cellar or Atrium that would change my attitude immediately.

ooo how cool would that be? People with Claustrophobia? Oh come on! :lol: They know what they're getting themselves into! Its a Haunted Mansion people! What a cool effect that would have been. Maybe one day they'll add it.

Ok...Space Mountain refurb! (my lame attempt to get back on topic)

It sounds very similar to the effect in Poseidon's at IoA on a bit smaller scale. I think it would be a nice addition.

Don't you mean Space Mountain cleaning? Cause I don't think we are getting much more than that.

But see all the stuff in DCA's "Blue Sky" Cellar isn't blue sky at all. It's actually happening. So for them to open one in WDW...they would actually have to do stuff here.

Agreed, I like the change.

I wouldn't mind seeing the model of WRE out on display again and whatever they have regarding Beastly Kingdom and Bald Mountain.

Wasn't the 12.3 million compiled from building permits? If that is the can I can all but guarantee you that it is a low figure and not the actual budget of the refurb. I wouldn't get your panties all in a bunch over it.
