The Spirited Seventh Heaven ...

I've always thought it's really bad that WDW CM Traditions class doesn't include a major section on WDW history.

Oh it used to.

I feel sick.

I think they talk a fair bit about the Florida project and the early days, but there's nothing about what EPCOT Center used to be like, or what happened over the late 80s and 90s IIRC.

Here's my favorite line:

From the moment we screened the film several months before its release, we were inspired by the possibility of bringing this great story to life for our guests.

Tom Staggs' nose must be growing.

"Nose".... how cute. His nose wont be whats engorged at the revenue growth.

Ask around. there are plenty of people who will tell you that Disney World has never been better. Why spend money when so many are satisfied with so little?

You hit the nail on the head.

And with that the thread has come full circle - after 1 million views. In case anyone has forgotten - that's the rumour @WDW1974 started this thread with.

Why is it that the recent announcements they make on new WDW attractions all kind of leave my cold - first Avatar, then toons taking over the World Showcase.

Would that truly define a hard ticket event?

Mine is:

We think these “Frozen” elements are great compliments to the Norway Pavilion, which showcases the country and region that inspired the film.

What is going to be left of the pavilion? The restaurant is already full with princesses, so that leaves the shop and the counter service selling school bread. Great way to showcase a country...

Does Stacey produce guidebooks for the company? No, she does stupid onair promos they put on travel disks and play in the rooms. I see they as both promoting.. not competing.

It is still, at very least, a very well known WDW personality openly promoting Lou. It wouldn't be happening unless Disney was letting it happen.

Always good for a laugh...

usually at though.

No one was interested in Frozen at WDPR except for Steve Davison, who made it the basis of World of Color Winter Dreams. The rest of the division dismissed it almost wholesale. If what Staggs said were true, then all this Frozen crap would have started day and date in November 2013, instead of waiting until June 2014 to do a damn thing about it.

I LOL'ed multiple times during the blog post that I'M SURE was ACTUALLY written by Tom Staggs. Does Disney know it has become a parody of itself?

So can Norway, the country, give the US the cold shoulder during the UN general assembly next month?

 

[Bolna]

Does anyone think that @WDW1974 announcing taking a leave from here for the near future has anything to do with the timing of the Frozen announcement???

(No, I don't really think that as they had to announce it soon if they are closing down Maelstrom on October 5 - but it is suspicious!!)

I wonder if they'll take the Frozen stuff out of the Stave Church and re-invest in making that little exhibit really showcase Norway better?

Hahah, I kill me sometimes.

I'll drink a coke with you to that

It doesn't mean every one will be bad or every foreign car will be good, but your odds are much better that you will have issues with a Ford or GM car over a Japanese car.

Meh, still think that is subjective. GM had a bad year this year but was doing quite well for a stretch. Toyota, well that have been having issues. Chrysler does very well. Some US cars do better as do some Japanese. Some have year after year issues and others a bad year.

I think there might be a couple of very sheltered and naïve people who think the Disney Parks Blog is actually real. The rest of us can smell the corporate fakeness coming off that Blog within a second of the page loading. And sadly, I honestly think there are people in Disney's communications department who think the Blog actually impresses consumers with more than a 5th grade education.

But just as a joke, I posted a "Hi Tom!" note on the Parks Blog. Let's see if it gets through.

That graph largely does nothing for me. Some recalls (most for foreign makes) are out of "just incase to be on the safe side" that are not really needed.
