I would like the Alice in Wonderland ride very much :-D From TDL, I want Pooh's Hunny Hunt! From DLP, uh... Maybe their Space Mountain? From HKDL, I would choose that new rollercoaster they're making with the bears.

Hunny Hunt = EPIC win xD

DLP, though, I think I'd steal Phantom Manor
and HKDL I'd steal Mystic Manor.

Hmm a Magic Kingdom with all HM variations? Perfect!

Though, TBH Mystic Manor will have nothing to do with the HM, completely different show scenes, due to the cultural view of ghosts. It will instead be based upon the SEA, as the article stated.

Er... Bob Gurr is my second guess. xD

Why is Space Mountain called Space Mountain exactly?

I know why it's SM and BTM but why is it Space MOUNTAIN?

There are no mountains in space.

Well it's working title was "Space Port" but as they redesigned it over and over, it looked more like an intergalactic Matterhorn, thus they dubbed it "Space Mountain"

^Pretty much word for word from The Disney Mountains:Imagineering at it's Peak

(yes I'm a nerd and totally pulled it out to answer)

Blaine Gibson?!

besides him..

Er... Bob Gurr is my second guess. xD

Correct! he was over joyed tht someone as young as me had recognized him (I stlaked him all the way into the theme parks exhibit)

That's so awesome

Bob Gurr is a legend.

Speaking of which; did you go to the Imagineering Legend seminar or the Disney Legends ceremony?

What was shown in the Theme Parks section then? I know there was stuff on HKDL, and Cars Land (including the autonomatronic of Lightning McQueen, and I still don't know what the difference is between an automatronic and an autonomatronic)

 

[WDWtraveler27]

Its an Incredible feeling being in a huge room with id say about 5,000 or so Disney fanatics tht share the same love for disney as I do.

They better have the next D23 Expo in WDW... And I better be able to attend...

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

I'm not quite sure either, but I think the projection mouth for Lightning is... wow.

I couldn't even tell in the first picture I saw, I thought it was just the regular drive-around character.

Al Lutz says Iger and TDA are getting cold feet about EO.

But they'll problably replace HISTA with Monsters, Inc LF, which although better than HISTA, does NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT belong in Tomorrowland.

xD
