Interesting. Hopefully this means good things are soon to come!

 

[MissMorrow]

Hmm, interesting. Is change actually afoot?

I just hope Kathy doesn't get sucked into the TDO vortex.

Hopefully this person's there to keep whispering in Ms. Crofton's ear, "If you build it well, the money will come..."

Carsland in Orlando??

 

[John]

Interesting......very interesting. I like the idea of a 30 yr vet comming to the world. Every indication is that focus is starting to shift toward Fla. A ramping up so to speak.

Carsland in Orlando??

As cool as that would be, I hope not. Cars Land should be exclusive to Disney California Adventure.

I agree. Though, I felt the same way about Tower of Terror then California Adventure took it!

Just kidding. But yeah, DHS or any of the parks don't need Cars Land. They need something new!

How does this impact Eric Jacobsen's role as WDI's point man in Orlando?

What a stellar job he has done.

Noticed in the article "nearing ground breaking for Avatar"!
I hope Carsland or something similar to it at least comes to DHS!

 

[disneypearl]

I can't help but to be very hopeful.

Until Phil Holmes and Crofton are out of the picture Im reserving excitment. But I do think Kathy will be good for WDW. I hope maybe she will be allowed to go above TDO on things. (the move may very well be intentional to do just that, Staggs may have choreographed it?)

 

[DisneyWall-E]

I HOPE this is a good sign of things to come. Now that DL and DCA are "*fixed" they can work on WDW.

*- almost all

Perhaps she will be their boss. That's the way it reads to me.

I look at this as a step in the right direction, not a huge leap but a step.

 

[vinnya1726]

Great Move.

Eric and Joe's roles are unchanged - they are both more on the creative side of things.

 

[WDWNooby]

This sounds like a positive move to me.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step I agree with you. Whatever change is coming will take a while. And whatever projects are started, Carsland or not, let's just hope they are awesome. Who knows, we may all get our socks knocked off with something we haven't imagined yet.
