It's tough because the entertainment is a bird in the hand where we fought long and hard to reach the point where quality entertainment is available daily at every venue. To give that up for a possible bird or two in the bush is troubling. But if everything plays out, it's an exchange I would gladly make.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-44862336851795782292008-08-19T14:22:00.000-07:002008-08-19T14:22:00.000-07:00With the gigantic refurb of California Adventure, ...With the gigantic refurb of California Adventure, Toy Story Midway Mania in two parks, the new Little Mermaid OmniMover ride, and the Monster's Inc roller coaster coming out ... let's just say that I'm sold on Disney's forward thrust.Kevbothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09370106025175589043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-15082027534501355662008-08-19T11:08:00.000-07:002008-08-19T11:08:00.000-07:00There hasn't been any slash and burn yet, and from...There hasn't been any slash and burn yet, and from what I've heard there's a lot of attractions in the planning stage for the new few years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-17419856769403999202008-08-19T10:56:00.000-07:002008-08-19T10:56:00.000-07:00Except of course how they started cutting back key...Except of course how they started cutting back key entertainment (Fantasmic, etc) in Orlando at the start of this winter, and supposedly Spectromagic will have the same fate, even after the repair of the Liberty Square bridge.<BR/><BR/>To me, this is an obvious tell that bookings this winter are looking bleak, and they are responding to it.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13051235855239168139noreply@blogger.com
