UNSOLVED MYSTERY

Are Dweezil & Dr. Hans actually the SAME PERSON? Tune in tonight to find out...

OK, this is funny. LOL.

True story: Constance and I were accused of being the same person when we used to post on the Laughing Place boards.

Don’t forget Teddi Barra’s Swingin’ Arcade! 😉

No, please, let's forget about it. 😁

Did you ever go in there? It was so tiny that it was almost impossible to distinguish it from the Mile Long Bar and whatever the gift shop was on the opposite end of the little strip of buildings housing all three. What's in the Swingin Arcade spot now?

On Tuesday, February 27th, 2018 at 2:06 PM, something very peculiar happened. Dweezil posted this comment...

It's a new breed of 'land' these days... The land itself is as much of an attraction as the rides within them. When you look at new lands like Pandora, Cars, and the Harry Potter lands at Universal, the line between attraction and land/environment really starts to blur. There is so much to see and experience, such amazing detail and scale put into these things.

In some ways, depending on the ride, walking around the land is maybe even superior when you figure that with an attraction you're looking at something fabricated inside of a show building, but on the outside you're seeing something that feels far more real. The difference is, you're not sitting in a ride vehicle and didn't have to wait a few hours to experience it!

That is kind of how I felt at Pandora. Both rides were great, but only when I walked around the land itself did i look up with my jaw wide open.

It was business as usual for the Dweez.

But then, on 3:38 PM, Dr. Hans had this to say.

We are witnessing a revolutionary turning point in theme park entertainment. Dining, merchandise locations, character interactions, and even scents, are going to play as much of a role as attractions do in theme lands in the future. The lines separating experiences is starting to disappear. The Star Wars Hotel is a good example of how the line between themed lands, attractions and even overnight accommodations are starting to blur.

Was it plagiary? Theft? Murder? Ok, maybe not murder, but the comment by Dr. Hans was nearly identical in tone & spirit to the previous comment. Even more suspicious, Dr. Hans responded to a comment by Dweezil. Was he actually responding to himself?

TO BE CONTINUED...

The park finally looks nice. It's like WDS got a good dose of EPCOT. They even got themselves a mini World Showcase lagoon back there. (I wonder if it's really big enough to warrant a Friendship style boat).

Here's a lower res image:

If you look at the higher res versions floating around here, there is a blob in the lagoon between the middle fountain and the fountain on the right that looks like a Friendship boat to me.

Right, I was wondering if that was wishful thinking on the part of the designers. Operations might not deem it necessary since it's a much smaller lake than World Showcase.

Having said that, if the lake is wider than it is deep (not deep as in down underwater, I mean front to back) it may be a helpful way to get from the right side to the left side (and vice versa).

EDIT: Looked at it again. That thing is essentially as large as Paradise Bay at DCA. If it does have a Friendship boat, I predict it will follow the DL Phantom Boats, the MK Swan Boats, and the DAK Discovery River Boats to Yesterland soon after.
