and the new monorail trains"If we cut the budget are you going to be the one standing at the exit explaining to guests why the ride they just rode is a piece of crap?" - - John LasseterComment

ONE New Monorail, as they are doing it one Monorail at a time.
But I think it is DCA's year and the promo of Toy Story Mania!.
We might get lucky with some more new stuff for HalloweenTime in 2008.
But other than that, hope for some more refurb walls for new stuff in 2009....Check out my Theme Park Photos at http://darkbeer.smugmug.comComment

I'm hoping for the Peoplemover to return....and for them to END the Year of a Million Dreams.......and for the record, I finally got a 'dream' today - and it was these 'Mickey Ears' - and it was cool that we got them, but I wouldn't call it 'a dream come true' to say the least.Comment

Re: What do you think is in store for Disneyland in 2008?
While I'd like to be optimistic about what's going to happen inside the parks...I won't rely on the quality of attractions that they may put in new/bring back/what-have-you, I won't hold my breath for any length of time on that...
I'll just hope that things will get better and that the trend of doing things on the cheap, or budget slicing the ideas to death won't happen.
Example:
Rocket Rods should/would have been AWESOME, if the freggin' cheap-o management responsible for the budget would not have kept cutting it like the psycho from SAW.
The cars would have been triangular in shape, the track would have had banked turns, the thing would have MOVED and been FUN.
There were many problems with that ride, not because the original set of plans or ideas were not good, they were— it all comes down to management 'slicing' the budget into nothing.
Like a meat carver with a nice big roast at dinner, ready to serve you...you ask for a piece, you're told you're getting one and at what size. You bring your plate over and the slice is as big and juicy as they said it was going to be, but before you walk away back to your seat, they take it back, and slice it ever thinner, and thinner, until you can almost see through it, and with each slice you realize you're going to be more and more hungry when the 'meal' is over, but there are no coming back for seconds or even re-negotiating for a slightly smaller cut being taken off your nice, juicy dinner.
The harsh reality sets in, and after dinner, you're forced to go back to the grocery store for rice-cakes and fat-free peanut butter to fill the rest of the way up—all WAY short of what you were lead to believe you would be feasting upon.
The budget cuts which were decided upon by management were SOLEY responsible for that attraction being on 'permanent refurbishment' — now we have a several million dollar worthless eyesore with circa 1980's satellite dishes spinning with horrid music, as if the attraction is moaning with sadness over what it once could/would have been.
Bitter: Party of one.Comment

2008 will be the end of Golden Screams, and the end of MHT at DCA, with a move to DLP, and DCA getting a more mature Nightmare Before Christmas themed event.
Oh, who am I kidding, Rasulo, Grier and their "yes people" will never approve of it.Comment

a) better pay for the cast members
b) benefits to ALL cast members regardless of their status
c) more meal options for the cast members during breaks/lunches
d) more character appearances on a regular basis(i.e. no more at random, only for a few moments then they are gone to backstage etc)
e) NO BREAKDOWNS OF THE RIDES/ATTRACTIONS
f) earlier opening times for the shops/restaurants/eateries to coincide with the park opening
g) yes
h) restoring pirates of the caribbean to its original non-movie additions and non pc changes appearance (except for the movie soundtrack during the fort scene)Comment

Re: What do you think is in store for Disneyland in 2008?
Yeah, I'm with you on this. I miss where Le Bat On Rouge used to be and Pieces of Eight has exploded into a store much too big with not all that great merch. I love Pirates of the Caribbean but most of the stuff offered isn't anything special and there's just waaay too much of it.Originally posted by rurounikengyrl View Post
I hope more penny press designs become available and I hope the PeopleMover will get some attention so it can make a comeback...maybe?Comment

::heavenly chorus::restoring pirates of the caribbean to its original non-movie additions and non pc changes appearance
Blasphemy. Captain Jack can stay if he wants. But for goodness' sakes, bring back the old music (and lack thereof) and give us the captain back!(except for the movie soundtrack during the fort scene)
