In the spirit of "new park to be added" rumour, I'm going to add some "news" that according to several Disney execs, they're going to add a boat driver sometime in the next few years!
Yes, I can confirm! When I was riding in the front cab of the monorail from AKL to Villain Kingdom (still wet from my ride on Rutt & Tuque's Great White North Raft Adventure) last weekend, the driver told me that there would be an announcement of a new boat captain during the official opening of Walt Disney World Houston in May.
I also heard that Disney is going to make a Pixar world because Disney JUST bought Pixar. Pixarworld is going to connect to Magic Kingdom by the new monorail extension. Pixar world is also going to be accompanied by a new DVC Pixar themed resort
I can confirm that too. The Monorail was passing through the Swan and Dolphin (where the black squares with nothing behind them used to be), going from Disney-ABC Studios Theme Park directly to Disney's Florida Adventure. Just then, the Monorail pilot pointed to Friendship Boat and announced that it would have a new captain in 2007.
I heard from my Uncle, that his friend who is in accounts for this buisness, that heard from this construction guy thats building a house in Washington state, that Everest is going to be torn down for a new E-Ticket.
