Good question.

This was an older article than the article I posted - it's info may have been obsolete...or Disney may have leaked more than their PR could stop...

This looks pretty good! The kid's breakfast platter isn't too bad on price, either.

Countdown until Off Kilter makes a return.....

I was just thinking they must really regret letting them go.I liked the lumberjacks but there wasn't much repeatability to their stuff.

Unfortunately I wouldn't count on off kilter coming back

This all makes MUCH more sense - again what got me about the earlier rumors were the mentions of "Disney" but no mention of "Lucasfilm". This talks more about Lucasfilm as being involved. I still think the story is more in between what's being presented here ("It's no big deal") and the panic posts ("40% reshoots"). Again, in the end all that matters is is the end product any good.

Addendum to previous Kong post:

There is a possibility that the walls came down last night in order to prepare for Tropical Storm Colin, and that no soft opening will occur today. I will keep y'all posted.

Possible but they came down during the Team Member preview so I'm guessing they just took them down to give them a full look at the ride. I heard that if soft openings happen today it won't be until much later.

Click on the name of the poster you don't want to hear from and then click the ignore button.

Wow! Personally, this is fantastic "news"! I never knew such a button existed. Yay! I can now ignore certain pontificating blow hards! Thank you thank you thanks you! We need a LOVE button.

Wow! Personally, this is fantastic "news"! I never knew such a button existed. Yay! I can now ignore certain pontificating blow hards! Thank you thank you thanks you! We need a LOVE button.

To be fair, certain pontificating blow hards (which may or may not include yours truly in some people's eyes) are important to prevent group think. When you take the emotion out of it, the frustration is often rooted because they have a shred of truth that goes counter to a person's desires. If the blow hards are all ignored or chased off, then you end up with group think and everyone proceeds blindly idling along until things either A) blow up or B) become repetitive and boring.

In short, the fans, message boards, and world as a whole need pontificating blow hards. It doesn't mean you have to love them, but my personal recommendation is unless they are insulting or aggressive (which I have not seen on this board, and the moderators address in short order) - ignoring them with the button is more damaging to the health of the board than simply choosing to skip past or use their post as eye rolling fodder.

Just my .02.

Sorry if I'm slow, but what's the "battle ride" and "the falcon" ride?
