    WDW Permits 2014

    It apparently stands for Teller Cash Recycler, which I did not know, but I've used them several times. They're machines about waist high that are used to deposit or dispense cash for all merchandise locations, as well as any other positions that may use cash, such as Guest Relations or...

    WDW Permits 2013

    My guess is they're making a version of the "DISH" they have out in Glendale in Florida. It's a room with curved screens that allow you to visualize new projects in 3d, most notably used in Carsland as seen here...

    MK Observations - 8/28/12

    Million dollar bunny was working, but instead of hopping forward like he usually does he just hopped in one place and disappeared. Timing was a little off too but I know the effect depends a lot on boat spacing. Laughing Place scene, no jumping fountains as usual.

    MK Observations - 8/28/12

    Spent a couple hrs at MK today and among other things rode Pirates, Splash, and Thunder, three attractions that's had show issues in the past. Here's some observations from earlier. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

    Michael Giacchino hinting at new audio for Space Mountain?

    I was the one that asked Michael that question at Saturday night's seminar. From what I understand, what he was saying was he heard Florida's SM got the half-way refurbishment and hopes for them to finish their work someday, and that if they ever do, he'd be interested to work with them again...

    Ultimate Disney Audio Quiz (WDW)

    So a while back my friend made a Disney park audio quiz using this site called Sporcle. It was really fun, but being the Disney audio geek that I am I breezed thru it with half the time limit left to spare . So he asked me to make one for him and after two days working on it I came up with the...

    Main Street Electrical Parade Debut

    They're not gonna change the drum.. I'm sure Disney's thinking about bringing this back to DCA at some point so there's no point in changing it over. I also wish they would but knowing Disney I know they wouldn't, and the preview picture pretty much confirms it. They even have the entertainment...

    Space Mountain Heading to the Scrap Heap :)

    Cmon guys. Are you gonna be arguing about DL & WDW's SM all the way til Nov.? And Lee, cmon. Almost all of us know the difference between ours and DL's SM's inside by now. Give it a rest. I know that you're upset about this whole thing cause you have an incredible love for Disney and I...

    Eddie Sotto's take on the current state of the parks

    These imagineering stories are great! Thanks so much. Eddie-I had no idea that you were involved in DLP Main St. BGM. Awesome. I was coincidentally listening to it yesterday in its entirety, both loops AM and PM. Why do they have two loops anyway? Unless the tracklist was off, a lot of the...

    Space Mountain Heading to the Scrap Heap :)

    Of course I meant my last sentence in a casually sarcastic way, thus the smiley. I didn't expect a whole comparison to DL as to why ours needs a refurbishment. Anyone can see that it does. Anyway, drove by SM today on the way to work cause I figured some people here would want to know...

    Eddie Sotto's take on the current state of the parks

    I actually think Disney Nature is a good idea cause I tend to be an environmentalist. You should listen to the arguments I have with people about the future of eco-friendly cars.:lol: If they can partner Disney Nature with Disney Wildlife Conservation, that'd be nothing but a benefit for the...

    Eddie Sotto's take on the current state of the parks

    Expo_Seeker, just curious, did you draw up any concept art to accompany your idea, cause that's what companies like WDI love to see, unless you want to go for a show writer position I guess. I really wanted to do the ImagiNations Contest especially while I was in college, since naturally WDI is...

    Eddie Sotto's take on the current state of the parks

    Ouch. That's what Tony said? Sadly that's where we're at now, with practically every new ride tied to Disney characters. It's funny. I don't think that's what Tony had in mind when he was designing Big Thunder. I miss the old days, when WDI can go all out creative without thinking about...
