The
Rain, Rain, Rain, came Down, Down, Down: 5/14-5/28. Arizonan
Semiquaver spent a couple of weeks
at WDW on a first visit recently and brings us lots to enjoy!
Not being accustomed to having water just drop from the sky
(for several days in a row), there are splendid shots of the
rain throughout the Parks.
Should
Epcot get 'Meet the World'? Alpoe001 has a great idea to transplant a terrific
attraction from Tokyo Disneyland to Epcot. Do you think it has
the makings of excellent addition? Or better to leave it where
it is?

This week, some expected news from Six Flags,
some bad news about Fantasmic and a clue about one of Pixar's
upcoming films - sir clinksalot

Six
Flags goes Bankrupt In a move that was somewhat expected, Six Flags filed for
Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection on Saturday. While this
may be bad for investors, it may not be such a bad thing
for the future of the parks. This is a move that is aiming
to re-structure some of the debt Six Flags has accumulated.
Now is the time for the 'new' Six Flags to really show what
they are made of.
Fantasmic's
new dragon will not be ready in time In a story first broken by
Al Lutz, Disney
confirmed that the new Fantasmic dragon would not be ready
until mid-summer. Judging by the reaction of some fans via
Twitter (highlighted in Monday's 'Dateline Disney' column)
the communication that the Dragon is not ready hasn't been
coming fast enough.
'Newt'
Pixar's next? And finally, our resident Hollywood Expert
ALIASd
found this nugget about Pixar artist Alex Woo and a hint
about who may be working on Pixar's 2011 release 'Newt'.
