I know I've been away from WDW for a number of years, but are you saying that Star Tours does not have the DLR version???

Not to mention that Trailers in the US are well known to completely skew what the movie is about.
sometimes they modify and edit the footage so much...appear to be from a completely different movie.

seems some people just want to be hated or go to extreme sides.
Look at Miley Cyrus as well.
she seems to be in a contest with LadyGaga to see who does the most dirtiest, sexualized (or just plain offensive) music videos.
Shia reminds me of Joaquin Phoenix (but without the acting skills) on the weird antics.

My biggest pet peeve is when the trailer footage is from all the scenes that didn't even make it into the movies' final print!

That referred to Disneyland Paris, which is the only 'classic' Star Tours remaining to be converted.

I think that's a given. Disneyland Parc in Paris, Disney California Adventure and Tokyo DisneySea all have hotels attached to the park, and guests love it.
While the bulk of the park seems to be influenced by Islands of Adventure (in contrast to Osaka and Singapore which are more Studios influenced), the entrance plaza to Universal Beijing, with globe and hotel straddling it, is very reminiscent of DisneySea:
Looks good anyway, although that cliche of always putting fireworks in concept paintings to make things look more interesting is starting to annoy me. I do love the conspiracy theory that Universal are just putting this out there to mess with Disney's heads, and the real plans for their Beijing park might be completely different from what is shown in the art.

The only place tons of Disney money is going right now is in stock repurchases.
During his 21 years as CEO, Michael Eisner spent 12.6% of operating income on stock buybacks.
So far, CEO Bob Iger has spent 49.9% of operating income on stock buybacks.
The primary reason most companies buy back stock is to inflate the price of the stock.
By the way, in 2013, 50.4% of Iger's compensation was in the form of stock and stock options.
Gee, I wonder if that had anything to do with the large stock buybacks?

That's unconscionable.

??? That is why I asked. Is there anything you can only find in that area or have their origins there. It is another plus to Kings Island that they include local food choices in the park. That way, out of town visitors can get a taste of Cincinnati.

Ok, here's some things I noticed. I clearly see the Hulk Coaster and the area around it looks like it could be a new MSHI, but it's hard to tell from behind. Can they do that or would they have to go to Disney to build a Marvel area in a new park?Robert Niles has posted high-res concept art for the UNI Beijing park.

Is that Diagon Alley in the top left? Kind of looks like it could be. The thing next to Diagon looks like it could be The Mummy. The town looking area below that looks like it could be Hogsmeade but that makes no sense with Hogwarts no where to be seen unless that huge castle next to it is Hogwarts
That could also be something completely different and Diagon would be the only Harry Potter area.I can't tell what the building on the right behind the castle is supposed to be but when I look at the one on the left I think King Kong for some reason.
(Maybe?)
The other areas are clearly Jurassic Park and Far Far Away. It also looks like they're getting a River Adventure clone. Shame, a new park gave them a great chance to finally do the Jeep ride.

I assumed it was a reference to the Stephen Collins molestation charge scandal, but I could be entirely wrong......I don't get it.

You are hereby my financial sensei. Never before have I fully grasped the extent of Robert Iger's evil objectives. (bows). Now if you'll excuse me, I must throw something at something, then have a good cry and a lie-down.
