News Round Up

Mermaid is supposed to stay and possibly be changed for a new IP.

My "less likely of the two options" was more referring to the MOVIE staying. VotLM might well stay, to me there's been too much swirl on that rumor to get a read on it. I can't imagine they would close OMD and just leave the movie running. That's what I was trying to say.
 
Want to get some feedback for this thread moving forward. I was looking at possibly creating a new thread every year or something like that. I think this thread is great for sharing smaller news items like refurbs, new menus, photo updates and such. So should we do a news thread every year such as News and Rumor round up 2016 or something along those lines? This thread is well over a year old I think it's for a bit of change so just wanted to see what those who visit think. Thanks in advance.
Sounds like a plan.

Yeah I don't just see them keep the movie for OMD but I can see them leaving VotLM.
 
Martin over at wdwmagic put together a map of how the work at DHS should go if it goes how it's currently planned.

Green- phase one (toy story)
Red- phase two (Star Wars)
Yellow- phase three
Blue- phase four
Orange- various enhancements and changes
Purple/pink- infrastructure/ parking garages
 

Supposedly a brand new state of the art costuming center is in the works but hasn't been announced yet.

But is that for the costuming department that has been moved due to Toy Story or Cast costuming which would be tore down if you build Star Wars over Indy?

I was wondering about the cast costuming building.When I was there it was literally filled to the brim from front to back and floor to celing with costumes on one side and lockers, showers, payroll, a salon and break room on the other. It seems like such an important area so I'm curious as to what will take it's place.

Maybe it will be for both. This is a very large budget and lots of infrastructure work will be done so I'm sure the costuming buildings will be part of that.
 
Hearing some big changes are coming to WDW annual passes including switching to a silver, gold, platinum type system.
 
So with the Annual Pass price increase how does that work if you were going to upgrade tickets bought in January of this year? If I bought a 4 day ticket and go into one park and straight to guest services to upgrade what will my pricing be?
 
The ONLY way I can see them justifying such a large price increase is if they drastically increased the amount of places you could use it, such as F&W booths, EVERY QS location, the bakeries, etc.
Well considering that rumors have been Disney wants to do away with the card I don't know if that will happen.
