The Spirited Back Nine ...

[yensidtlaw1969]

Yes, yes, a MILLION times YES!!!!! The T-Rex scene from the first movie still holds up extremely well today simply because of how amazing that animatronic(?) was. Does anyone know if that thing is still around or did they disassemble it after the movie was done?

Unless he was intentionally very well preserved, a lot of the materials used in making creatures like that don't hold up well over time. My guess would be that he's either in a private collection or in a landfill

Yeah, a lot of those things tend to start self-destructing as soon as they're used, especially when they're gotten wet.

I'm just wandering where Jurassic Park came from in this forum.

Squirrels are not the disease carriers that rats/mice are, Even though they ARE incredibly destructive they REALLY enjoy chewing armored fiber optic cables.

I agree, Rats are vermin, disease carriers. I wouldn't infer them to be anything related to "nature". To infer they are something of nature is to insinuate they have some ecological value at WDW. They have none. These vermin need to be dealt with swiftly. If you eradicated every rat on the 40 some odd square miles of WDW it wouldn't put a dent in the Florida rat population or effect the ecological balance of the area.

The I-Drive skyplex released info and a fully rendered animation about the polercoaster today, 570 ft and what looks like 11 inversions? If this gets built, it should be awesome. Watching the animation was better than I expected for sure.

The problem of course is not so much the diseases they carry but that they will attract predators which in WDW's case will be snakes and poisonous ones at that and some kid is going to be bitten because they will try to pick one up because they dont know the snakes are dangerous. And while I have not seen RATS at WDW I have seen lots of snakes with the majority being the poisonous variety which is to be expected since WDW is in the middle of a florida swamp.

Remy is the exception of course, But he's in Paree anyway!

He used to be in Epcot, but not anymore. It was a pretty great way of including him too.

Yes he was, Remy also gave Robert Irvine C--- in a episode of 'Dinner Impossible' set at EPCOT.

Nope. Never ever gonna ride that. Nice to look at though.

Twenty plus years later and that animatronic still sends shivers down my spine. It moves so realistically! Stan Winston was a genius.

I'll take pictures of it...

What venomous snakes have you seen at WDW? Only reason I ask is because the majority of snakes in Central Florida are harmless, and most Floridians couldn't tell you the difference between a water moccasin and a brown water snake if it bit them on the leg.

How bad of an answer do you want for this?

They migrated down from NYC and Jersey, just like the rest of Central Florida.

they are also suntanned in these fake sun tan beds? right?
