Blue Sky Buzz (Orlando): Part Of Your "Disney" World...
You guys are so lucky...
After all the many e-mails I received asking for a Blue Sky Alert(now know as Blue Sky Buzz, btw), you not only got a full report, but two mini-updates about Anaheim and now...
you get another mini-update about Orlando.
That's right guys, finally something I can report about the Florida part of the Mouse's empire. Kinda good/kinda bad info. At least from my perspective, I'm sure you Disney Fans/Geeks in Florida might have a different perspective. Now, in truth this is sort of an update/commentary so understand that going in...
But I thought I'd fill you in to some of the inner workings of WDI and TeamDisney Burbank. Ahhhh... Suits. Ya gotta love 'em, huh? Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
Well, the big word is that the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World is finally getting a new "E-Ticket". Now this is great news since the last one they got was I believe 1992. Has it really been that long? Wow...
And if you remember that was "Splash Mountain" if I remember. Not that other parks haven't gotten more rides and more "E-Tickets", but I believe that that's the last one the MK got(I could be wrong, but I don't think so).
Now that's good right?
Well yes... and no. You see, they are getting a big, expansive, immersive ticket BUT...
It's going to be "The Little Mermaid" ride that DCA is getting. The EXACT ride. So the unique appeal of this ride will be watered down since there will now be one on the West Coast in DCA and one on the East Coast in MK. Just like "Midway Mania" which was supposed to be a DCA exclusive, TLM will now go into the back part of Fantasyland in the Magic Kingdom. It should fit there rather nicely. It should really bring in the guest, but there was something to be said for having it be a ride only experienced at the Disneyland Resort. Those WDW Suits along with the remaining spawn of Eisner's Era that still survives deep in the bowels of Burbank have decided to clone the attraction. The rational is that for the development cost to be justified it helps to have it spread out over two parks instead of one. Can someone please do me a favor and take Jay Rasulo and give him his walking papers? Please? I've written about the death of the "McPark" but as long as Jay is still around this concept will refuse to die because he keeps bringing it up in various incarnations.
While it will be nice to have a new ride at WDW, it's not like WDI is empty of ideas. The problem is the Suits in Burbank keep shooting them down. They have proposed many, many new interesting and innovative attractions. Their logic... brilliant bean counters that they are is that "People are going to come to WDW world anyway, so why should we spend money on a big, new attraction?"... I know, I know. I'm shaking my head that these kind of short sighted lame brained, dim light bulbs are still there. Sorry if I'm a little ticked. I tend to be positive but I'm human and sometimes I even get frustrated. Here's a bit of good news about these Suits: There aren't nearly as many as there was before. But there are still a few in high positions that have enough sway to get things to feel like they were under the Pressler regime.
Just so you know the logic follows that they don't want to risk a lot of money on something very big and expensive unless it's a proven thing. Like Mermaid... which I love, btw. But some of the concepts(before you ask, no I can't tell you what they are) that HAVE been proposed for WDW and DL and even Hong Kong have been amazingly cool. But the executives up in Burbank will only squeeze out the money if they're sure it'll be a hit from the get go. Now John Lasseter has been working with the teams inside Glendale to try and get some of these concepts out, but he's still not able to do everything. If "Wall-E" and the new Disney animated films do well it's going to help dim the glow from Rasulo's ego, but until that man is out of the picture we'll still be subjected to the "Disney Parks" brand which is Jay's attempt to homogenize the parks and resorts like franchises of burger joints all across America. If you go to one, you'll sure know what to expect and get.
Now wouldn't it be nice to have something unique about DCA? Something that would make you want to fly all the way across from say, Florida or some other state back east? Many Imagineers have pressed for attractions that could go into various parks to give them an appeal that would make each stand out. Imagine that... giving the guest a reason to try and go to as many Disney theme parks to experience the aspects of each that are different. Jay doesn't want that. He and the insulated bean counting Suits in his circle want you to see no difference between Anaheim or Orlando or Paris or Hong Kong.
Notice any park I left out? That's right. Tokyo. Try finding some of the rides they have there in another park. "Pooh's Hunny Hunt" is nowhere else in the world and it's an amazing attraction. "Monster's Inc." in Tokyo Disneyland? Wait until this attraction opens up next year and puts DCA's to shame... while both Pooh and Monsters here cost around 30 million, their counterparts in Tokyo cost over 100 million. And it shows... For some reason the Suits at the Oriental Land Company seem to recognize that you need unique and elaborate attractions to get people to keep coming back. The ones in Burbank seemed to have still not learned the lessons of the late 90's and DCA...
I know that some of you are asking: "What about Cars Land, will it be cloned too?". Now, nothing is written in stone, but it's very unlikely that this one will be cloned. It's not just a ride after all... it's a whole new land. It would be far harder to reproduce this in Florida than Mermaid. Not that it would be impossible, but just harder. I would hope that if the Suits were to somehow decide to spend 300 million on a new land or area in WDW that they would approve some other idea they've been presented with. Perhaps use some of that money and greenlight the proposed "Beastly Kingdom" area of DAK that has languished now for over a decade. Right now... it's anyones guess what happens with this project(although Lasseter's involvement in certain areas is encouraging).
Hopefully this didn't sound like too down a report for you. It's just me doing a little editorial venting. It is good news for WDW fans though. You guys get a big, brand new spanking attraction. You just don't get anything original that could make you stand out...
For that you have to go East. Not the East Coast of America, but the Far East...
As in Tokyo.

That sucks. I don't want a carbon copy of DCA's The Little Mermaid here at the Magic Kingdom if I can get the same exact thing out west.
It'll give me more reason to fly out to California and spend my money at Disneyland Resort if the parks were a bit more unique. If they didn't do things like unessesarily clone TSM over here, and now Mermaid, I'd actually spend more of my $$ making the trip to DLR in addition to the various trips I take to WDW every month or so.
And actually, The Little Mermaid belonged in the Magic Kingdom in the first place...not in DCA.
Give MK the mermaid, come up with an original attraction that actually has to do with California for DCA. Or maybe make our version of "Mermaid" a FNSV-style submarine ride?!
I'm still trying to figure out how The Little Mermaid has to do with the San Francisco section of DCA....? - May 26, 2008 at 9:09 PM
Well, it's going to have a theme related to the Pier as in aquatic... truthfully, many piers had theming that related to mermaids along the boardwalks in the late 1800 and early 1900's so that won't be a problem. Also, it isn't themed to San Fran as all of that theming will be gone by the time Mermaid opens. If they have a San Fran section it will likey be in the remade Pacific Wharf area during the second phase.
- May 26, 2008 at 9:18 PM
That is so stupid that they are cloning DCA's Mermaid ride. There goes DCA's Identity. It was bad enough that they stole Toy Story Mania from us, but my god. What is wrong with them in Florida. That makes me so mad.
"Or maybe make our version of "Mermaid" a FNSV-style submarine ride?!"
Impossible, this ride cannot be built anywhere else because of the new regulations and junk like that. The only reason DL got it was because DL already had it. It can't be built from the ground up. - May 26, 2008 at 9:59 PM
Perhaps we virtual shareholders as Honor calls us should voice our opinions to the Walt Disney Company? Or perhaps the Orange County Register? Get some attention to the matter.
- May 26, 2008 at 10:10 PM
And, of course, BOTH of the Mermaid versions will be the reduced omnimover version, not the "flying" version shown on the Little Mermaid DVD

The attraction may be an onimover, anonymous...
But it's a great E-Ticket if they build what I've seen. Unless you think the Haunted Mansion is a lousy ride you won't think TLM is either.
The Magic Kingdom is going to get a great attraction and it deserves one. I just wish it was getting an original for itself and not a clone so that Jay can brag about how he's saving cost by making every park the same. It makes the park soulless, but that would make sense since it's coming from a soulless individual such as Rasulo. I await the day he leaves or is fired. I don't know if/when it will happen, but the company and parks will truly be much better off. Hopefully, someone is listening... - May 26, 2008 at 10:38 PM
- CheriBibi said...
What stands out though, is that if Mermaid didn't have to be "doubled" in order to dispatch the costs, then MK wouldn't have had a new ride at all.
Though I understand your point, one can only rejoice 20,000 leagues patch land is finaly gonna be filled and themed.
WDW guests will be happy. no doubt about that. - May 26, 2008 at 11:54 PM
I love it when Disneylanders get all upset when their park can't lay claim to having an exclusive ride. LOL
It simply makes financial sense for Disney to clone rides.
Those who sit behind computers love to slam Disney for being 'bean counters', but it's easy to say when it's not our $50 million -- or whatever it costs to build a ride like this. If they make two of everything in the process, it's cheaper than making two completely different rides.
And when you factor in the fact that most people only go to one Disney resort almost exclusively, why would they bother to try to make a handful of people who go to multiple Disney resorts happy?
Honestly, I'd love it if there weren't clones, but I don't live in Fantasyland. From a logical and financial standpoint, this makes sense. - May 27, 2008 at 12:36 AM
Disneyland's Winnie the Pooh was reported to have the around the same budget as WDW's ( around 30 million ) but really only cost about 14 million.
This era of cloning attractions needs to come to an end. What is attracting people from the west coast to go to Disneyworld and vice versa?
This must stop... right after DL gets a mission space in tomorrowland... - May 27, 2008 at 12:47 AM

and this discussion isn't about disneyland having exclusive rides it is about the disney suits restricting the creativity of the talented men and women down at WDI and limiting the spectrum of new offerings in their US parks.
The idea that this is good business is ridiculous.
If this is how it is going to be , they can stop calling them attractions and just call them rides. - May 27, 2008 at 12:53 AM
Ok anonymous,
You think it's ridiculous that Disneylanders want something exclusive to their park, what you're missing is that's not what Honor is saying. He's saying each park should have somethin unique to offer. If you had eleven children would you want them all to look, act and sound alike? I believe you'd want them to each have their own personality and that is what he's saying. There is no reason to go to California if I can get it in Florida. I believe that WDW should have exclusive things for it as well so don't play this as Disneylanders or whatever you want to call it. While we're at it, I'm hoping the Pirates that has been talked about for HKDL get built because it's going to be different and make people want to go see it.
Get it? Otherwise go to McDonalds and have the same ole' fries with the same ole' burger, cause that's what Disney Parks will turn into unless Rasulo gets fired. - May 27, 2008 at 1:38 AM

You're presuming that it's going where "Leagues" was...
I didn't say that. I said it's going to Fantasyland which doesn't mean it will wind up there. - May 27, 2008 at 1:40 AM
Yeah, they're cloning everything at both coasts these days... Radiator Springs Racers, Expedition Everest, Indiana Jones, Nemo Subs, Mission Space, Test Track, Rock'n'Roller Coaster... oh wait, not they're not.
There's less cloning going on NOW than there was when WDW was first built. I don't get the hate.
To all those who claim you'd visit the other coast if it was more unique - would you visit in ON TOP OF your usual visits to your "home park", or would you visit it one time instead of a visit to your "home park." There's a big difference.
To me, there will always be enough of an architectural difference (DCA, DHS, AK, and Epcot are vastly different) and in terms of E-tickets (see the rides mentioned above) that if you really were going to visit the other coast, you would have done so already becuase there's already reason enough to do so. Having the Little Mermaid at DCA only was NOT going to be enough to put it over the top for you, it's ok to admit the truth to yourself. However, big E-tickets like Indiana Jones, Radiator Springs, etc are the non-twin rides that should be more than reason enough to visit California. If it's not, I don't think it would matter how many attractions were different, you wouldn't be heading over there. - May 27, 2008 at 2:18 AM

I did not see in your post or in the comments any mention of a possible budget increase for development of this attraction since bothe parks will utilize the design. If this happens, and results in a more richly themed attraction, than both parks come out ahead. If you know how the budget may be affected it would be interesting to know. Thanks.
I was weened on Disneyland but now live close to and work part time at WDW. I treat the parks like my children - I love them all, no favorites, though I may spend more time with one or the other. I go to DL, not because of all the unique rides there, but because it is where Walt walked, and is intimate, and has the history. WDW, in Walt's words, has 'the blessing of size' and can sprawl. But they are both Walt's children and, while unique to themselves, will still look like their daddy, as they continue to grow.
I don't disagree with having unique attractions at each park, but I don't see think it is a big issue to have identical rides at the parks. - May 27, 2008 at 3:14 AM
there have been worse ideas, come on people. magic kingdom needs a new attraction. the little mermaid is a great idea... i even hope they put it in hong kong disneyland. i believe it is okay to have the same attraction appearing at other parks, but no more than 3 parks maximum. this SOARIN' OVER CALIFORNIA in Epcot was a bad idea. the concept is amazing, but they could have plugged SOARIN' OVER THE WORLD for that park, making it unique. i am all for taking the same idea and making it original per park. i love the idea of having different haunted mansions at each park (although the magic kingdom versions are pretty much identical...). jay rasulo sounds like he loves gingerbread men- cookie cutters are his thing. the positive side is that we have john lasseter on board. i know he is pushing for the best and isn't one to settle for just anything. that alone allows me accept these clones, albeit amazing ideas, in various parks.

This is still very much in flux, Honor.
If it's not built and open, it's rumor. It's fun to speculate and I know that you have your sources, but stop making it sound like these kinds of projects are absolutely going to happen, please? - May 27, 2008 at 7:37 AM

Whoo hoo! Unique for the MK currently means M.I.L.F., Stitch's Great Escape and Tiki Room Under New Management. I'll take a quality copy any day!
Fans dislike when "just OK" attractions get copied, like the many 4D clones, but I don't recall many Westcoast Disneyfan complaints about getting Buzz or ToT (other than the DCA ToT not being as good as the WDW ToT).
Also, I think that outside of California, U.S. Disney fans are perceived as Eastcoast or Westcoast (as opposed to "Florida Disney Fans"). Anyone else think this way? - May 27, 2008 at 8:28 AM

I may not be a purists, but I have nothing against cloning rides. In fact, I kind of like it. I admit, the first rides I went to hit in Disneyland (where I rarely go) were the ones that they don't have in Orlando, but that I wasn't in California because Disneyland had those rides.
Man, did I love Temple of the Forbidden Eye. Also was a big fan of Alice in Wonderland (is that still there?), and the Matterhorn. Also, differences in the rides are fun--Space Mountain, Pirates of the Carribean. Still, I'm not flying from Tennessee to California just to go to Disneyland (of course, I love Florida, anyway, so I may be atypical), but will go to Anaheim if I'm going to be in California. But when will that happen again? 5 years? 10 years? I'm certain to get down to Florida in the next five years, so I'm glad they'll be cloning the Little Mermaid. I hope it's open when I get there!
Although I am for original attractions, I don't think cloning rides is a negative. I'd still hit Disneyland and DCA if I was in California, and if it's a true E-ticket I'd ride that ride in Calfornia and Florida.
Frankly, if I had the money and time, I'd hit every Disney park in the world--even if the number of unique attractions was minimal. I think the real lesson to be learned here is that Disneyland and the Magic Kingdom need to be cloning the Tokyo park's rides! 100 million per E-ticket? Now, that sounds like an attraction! - May 27, 2008 at 8:29 AM
DCA doesn't get a single exclusive thing and WDW only get's "left over" idea's, what's the use for me to go to DCA then? Don't they get it???
I'm one disappointed European Disney "fan"... - May 27, 2008 at 8:55 AM
With travel expenses going up you will continue to see less and less people go from one coast to the other to vacation.
Having the same top attraction at both parks makes financial sense for Disney as well as vacation sense for tourists. - May 27, 2008 at 10:25 AM
- CheriBibi said...
Yeah sorry, I made this deduction myself. Even though I really don't see where else it could go... - May 27, 2008 at 11:06 AM
Honor Hunter is being bitter. Does he honestly think Disney was ever interested in making each park unique? Give me a break! If Disney really wanted each park to be truly unique, there would only be one Main Street USA, Fantasyland, and Tomorrowland in the world. The fact is that when they made Walt Disney World, the unique factor went away. People demanded cloned rides. Rides that were not cloned were asked to be cloned.
Magic Kingdom is the most visited park of all of Disney's properties (and the world). E-ticket attractions are generally created to help push more traffic, thus, Magic Kingdom hasn't had a new attraction in more than a decade because it wasn't needed.
Also, stop being a whiny fan boy. This anti-suits spiel is totally off the mark. Its obvious your source is a low hanging fruit because anyone that actually manages the money in attraction research and development would tell you that millions can be spent without anything being built.
Its incredible that you think Disneyland has the same funding to put forward as the Oriental Land Company. Seriously, you need to stop dissing the suits and starting looking at the numbers they have. Being a "suit" is speaking about the methods for decision-making, not the goal.
Do you really think Disneyland, with its slumping attendance, could even compete on the same level? TEA/ERA scored California Adventure with a 4.5% visitor drop in 2007. Disneyland proper only had a 1% increase. Either way, they're still in the red. Pooling Orlando's R&D dollars into this development is one of the saving graces of this mess.
Since you brought up Tokyo Disneyland, let's talk NUMBERS (don't be scared). The Tokyo park had a 0.3% income increase in Q1 2008. Why? Because they cut costs. [Read: Layoffs].
I think you're too quick to discredit a LARGE part of the Disney team. You want to slice off the un-fun side of a company and pull from the magic cloud of money to grant all artistic license. This isn't Neverland! Time to grow up. - May 27, 2008 at 11:14 AM

"Magic Kingdom hasn't had a new attraction in more than a decade because it wasn't needed."
Was Disneyland not the most visited theme park in 1966? Did that stop Walt from heavily investing in the park up until his death? It's funny that for a company that touts the legacy of its founder so often they don't seem to really give a damn what he had to say.
And hereeeeeee come the quotes!
"Well, by this time, my staff, my young group of executives are convinced that Walt is right, that quality will win out, and so I think they will stay with this policy because it's proven it's a good business policy. Give the public everything you can give them, keep the place as clean as you can keep it, keep it friendly - I think they're convinced and I think they'll hang on after - as you say, "after Disney.""
"If any of you starts to rest on your laurels, forget it."
You talk about cloning MK, but was it such a clone? Certainly it made much more sense on paper to build Sleeping Beauty Castle instead of the extravagant Cinderella Castle. Certainly it made more sense to use the same facade from the Haunted Mansion. Wouldn't it have been cheaper to build Tomorrowland as it was at Disneyland, and not build a unique one in design and layout?
You also conveniently forget that Walt was also garnering support for his Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, which would not only be a tourist destination in and of itself, but a living breathing city.
I guess these guys weren't as business savvy as the geniuses that run Disney today. Here I was thinking that the Disney experience was all about artistic license.
But poor Disney never has enough money. They are in the red, as you say. Maybe we should start a bake sale and help them out a bit.
"Since you brought up Tokyo Disneyland, let's talk NUMBERS (don't be scared). The Tokyo park had a 0.3% income increase in Q1 2008. Why? Because they cut costs. [Read: Layoffs]."
I don't doubt you, but where is this information? I am reading the OLC's financial statements and searching on Google and cannot find anything about layoffs.
The most recent financial statement shows a decline in income due to a decline in attendance. - May 27, 2008 at 12:24 PM

Sometimes I don't get it. WDW has plenty of original attractions and vice-versa for Disneyland. My family doesn't go out to the West Coast, haven't been in a decade, so for us to get The Little Mermaid attraction down in Orlando is terrific. Fanboys need to remember that many of us do not go to both places. It'll be great to have a wonderful E-Ticket in Fantasyland at the MK.

I've only been to Disneyland and Tokyo Disney. I've never been to WDW and I still think it's a bad idea to clone attractions. I wouldn't want to see Everest built in Anaheim any more than I want to see The Little Mermaid ride built in the Magic Kingdom.
And it's very hard to say, but I wouldn't want to see TDS built in the US unless it was significantly altered (and not in the cost cutting way). - May 27, 2008 at 3:09 PM

Actually Corruption,
I'd love for it to be in flux... I'd love for them to change their minds, but it would take a miracle for that to happen right now. This is as of now considered a "Co-production between DCA and MK... that's what it's being referred to inside WDI. It's not in flux, it's happening.
If things change I'll be estatic, but I doubt that's going to happen short of Rasulo exiting the company soon.
Sorry. - May 27, 2008 at 3:41 PM

Didn't Disney himself completely clone Disneyland Park when he designed Disney World?
Of course it would be nice for every park in the world to be unique, but I just can't get worked up about this. As far as the problems that ail Disney theme parks, this is about 7,392nd on the list of issues. - May 27, 2008 at 4:44 PM

Walt Disney on Walt Disney World:
"I've always said that there will never be another Disneyland, and I think it's going to work out that way. But it will be the equivalent of Disneyland. We know the basic things that have family appeal. There are many ways that you can use those certain basic things and give them a new decor, a new treatment. This concept here will have to be something that is unique, so there is a distinction between Disneyland in California and whatever Disney does in Florida."

Also, despite the fact that Disney World has "the blessing of size" what is the Little Mermaid ride going to replace? I mean, Pooh could have easily been built near Splash Mountain, but they chose to close Toad instead.
Because we all know that since the Magic Kingdom is the most visited theme park in the world they are really hard up for money and MUST close an existing attraction to open a new one. - May 27, 2008 at 5:07 PM

No, they can't read the directions on how to get there.
I've never been to Tokyo, but I'm glad that there is something there to look forward to when I save up the money to go. If it was the same experience as a ride I have here I wouldn't attempt to go.
The Monsters ride at DCA is a nice C ticket, but I can't wait to see the E ticket that opens next year. It would be nice though to have a ride BETTER and DIFFERENT than the ones in Tokyo for a change. It's frustrating to see them get one with all the bells and whistles and we get one with just a bell. I was looking forward to TLM being a DCA exclusive. It would give the Japanese a bigger incentive to come here. To experience the difference. But now they can choose California or Florida cause it's the same damn ride.
I can't stand Jay Rasulo. He and the dip sticks around him should go off and form their own theme park: Genericland. The greatest place for mediocrity. He'll fit right in... in fact, he'll be the king of it. - May 27, 2008 at 6:50 PM
""Give the public everything you can give them.""
The public wants Mermaid at both the DLR and WDW. The general public only chooses one park or the other. Those fortunate enough to go to both parks are the minority.
""You talk about cloning MK, but was it such a clone? Certainly it made much more sense on paper to build Sleeping Beauty Castle instead of the extravagant Cinderella Castle. Certainly it made more sense to use the same facade from the Haunted Mansion.""
Like Mansion and TSM Mermaid at WDW could have a different facade, location, que. - May 28, 2008 at 6:45 AM

A couple of things:
1. Honor, I'm standing my ground on this. Your sources are overestimating the likelihood of this at this point. We'll have to agree to disagree. Just because someone in WDI says something doesn't mean the bean counters have given it the greenlight. Cases in point -- Westcot, Disney's America, Beastly Kingdom, Western River Expedition, Israel and Spain pavillions, etc. There are tons of instances of things not getting built that were announced, much less not even past the planning stages.
2. Right on Spokker.
3. @ anonymous saying that Honor is bitter -- I don't always see eye to eye with Honor, and I see your point about villifying the non-creative folks, but he has a point in this case, even though I suspect most guest will be happy to have two of the same attraction. - May 28, 2008 at 7:22 AM
- kevinwillis.net said...
While I'm not a big fan of vitriol (Honor Hunter is "bitter"? Come on.) . . . I still think cloning attractions is a pretty good idea, especially with there is a significant geographical distance between the parks. I think doing unique things is a good idea, too, but cloning major attractions--especially someting like The Little Mermaid--sounds as if the suits want to make it possible for the most people possible to experience it.
The fact is, not everybody can get to both parks. Not everybody will, even if they reasonably could. While theme parks are different from other forms of entertainment, should a movie just play at one theater per town? Per state? I dunno, but it seems like Disney is making it possible for more people to experience an exceptional (I hope) E-ticket ride. If that's the case, I'm all for cloning.
Unique rides are fun, just as are cloned rides with signficant differences between experiences. But even if the great majority of rides were the same between parks, it would not make it less likely for me to go to that park--and go on all the same rides. "Hey, isn't this on the right side and WDW? Hey, is this part different? I don't remember that at Disneyland."
Much more important that Disney maintain their rides, fix broken bits, patch cracks, and dust! Last time I was at WDW (this was 2002, I think) I thought both Small World and Splash Mountain had lots of bits showing wear, and lots of bits that just needed some dusting, fresh coat of paint, etc. And a couple of the figures on Small World appeared to be non-functional . . . getting on that stuff is a much bigger issue than whether or not to clone or not to clone.
That and firing up some more monorails. Man, I love me some monorail action. - May 28, 2008 at 8:38 AM

Very interesting post and comments. Here's my .5 cents.
First, I appreciate the tidbits that Honor sends over the intertubes. I think we all know pretty well that these things are rumors without Honor having to say it every time. The key is that these are rumors based on some real-world facts. Spokker is right that we should anticipate change--because it very well might happen. Dick Tracy's Crimestoppers was set to happen--then the movie bombed. Who knows what could happen here. But, even so, I think Honor is fine using the language he uses. As of conditions TODAY, Little Mermaid is set to invade the Magic Kingdom.
Second, as to the concerns over cloning, I think cloning makes a lot of sense--WHEN done right! I used to live in the South and as much as I wanted to experience Disneyland, it just didn't make financial sense to fly across the country--especially when flying eats up an entire day. Now I'm in the opposite situation here in California. I appreciate when a really good experience is shared at both locations.
BUT, this works best when there are *some* differences. I've never been to Disneyland Paris--but I plan to go in the next few years. I'm curious to see how their versions of Space Mountain and Haunted Mansion differ. To me it's ideal when the cloned rides share the same basic experience, but actually differ in some show scenes and experiences. Space Mountain and Big Thunder actually differ at each park--whereas it looks like on the inside Toy Story Mania is going to be exactly the same. I have no reason to go to both versions.
The shame here would be if, as Honor indicated, the rides are EXACTLY the same. The even bigger shame would be if they waste that valuable 20,000 Leagues lot with a glorified dark ride--but it sounds like it will be more than that and that it may use a different piece of land anyway!

"The public wants Mermaid at both the DLR and WDW. The general public only chooses one park or the other. Those fortunate enough to go to both parks are the minority."
People travel. And these are the big spenders. They are the ones who spend 3-5 grand on a Disney vacation. They aren't going to do it when every park is homogenized.
There are an increasing number of foreigners traveling to Tokyo Disney and I'm sure the OLC welcomes these tourists who spend thousands of dollars at their resort. Sure, Japanese locals will always outnumber foreigners at TDR, but then again, Disneyland relies on locals with cheap APs, and Disneyland is becoming less of a world-class destination.
When you build cheap overlays and makeover classic attractions, all you're attracting is the local APs who don't spend much. But when you build high budget attractions that tell a story, you attract guests from halfway across the world who have always dreamed of going to Disneyland, and they spend, spend spend. - May 28, 2008 at 12:11 PM

@ BrerDan:
The reality today is that Honor's sources are saying it's going to be built, not that the powers that be are saying it will be built.
I take issue with someone making statements that make it sound like fact. Unless Honor has a direct pipeline to Bob Iger, Jay Rasulo, Al Weiss, or Meg Crofton, I'd take what he has to say with a grain of salt, especially if it hasn't been announced yet.
In addition, he could be getting some misinformation in order to weed people out. Remember, Apple is notorious for those kinds of things, and let's not forget who is now on the Disney Board of Directors... - May 28, 2008 at 1:40 PM
- Daniel said...
I understand what you're saying man, and don't disagree with you. I guess for me it's just splitting hairs as to whether you actually write the word "rumor" or "sources" in every post when there have been so many posts where he talks about the Bothans and such.
I'm not disagreeing with your overall point. It's not happening until it's actually being built! I just assume people are reasonable enough to realize that. I mean, I take EVERYTHING I read on the web with a grain of salt. You're probably right that many out there don't do the same.
BrerDan - May 28, 2008 at 3:41 PM
it is all fun speculation, whether we are getting our hopes up or not.
honor, i have a special request... can you start doing more indepth blogs about attractions that never made it to the construction phase? i'd like to know more about things like THE YOUNG INDIANA JONES EPIC STUNT SPECTACULAR at disneyland, as well as some of the things planned for dca, like CIRCLE OF HANDS. see what you can dig up...
thanks. - May 28, 2008 at 8:34 PM
Spokker - There are thousands of big spenders, "who spend 3-5 grand on a Disney vacation", every day at WDW.
Basicly any family who stays a week at a non-value resort. Many, many eastcoast families go to WDW every few years for a week. I bet less than 5% would even think of making a vacation of Disneyland. Disneyland is still a regional park and WDW is a national resort.
BTW - I'm not knocking Disneyland, just pointing out the vastly different markets. - May 28, 2008 at 10:23 PM
I agree with you about the accountaneers. Creativity needs to reign, especially with more competition world-wide and in this country with other theme park companies.
Is TLM really "E" ticket level? From what has come out, so far, it doesn't seem like it, but you have alluded to it being that. I hope it will be.
Each park should have its own distinct attractions, as well as some that are the same - nothing wrong with that, except when it comes from a lack of creativity.
Half of CarsLand has already been built in France, so even some of that originality has already been taken from DCA.
Thanx for the updated Blue Sky Lightyear - May 28, 2008 at 11:55 PM
I know for a fact that Honor is correct on this one. The project right now is destined for both DCA and the MK - May 30, 2008 at 8:18 AM
Cloning is not bad but it should be done with some consideration. Specific attractions should always remain specific to certain parks.
Making an exact ride thru clone of the mermaid attraction for WDW is not the way to go even if the facade is diferent. - May 30, 2008 at 8:22 AM

Fan, notafanboy said: "Half of CarsLand has already been built in France, so even some of that originality has already been taken from DCA."
Actually Fan,
To compare what Paris has to what DCA is getting is like comparing Tokyo's Pooh ride with our own in California...
They're dramatically different. The area in WDS in Paris is a nice area for the kids, but when you walk into Cars Land it will overwhelm you. It's going to be that cool.
Four years from now, unless everything goes plot! from the economy you'll have a chance to see it for yourself. - May 30, 2008 at 8:34 AM
- Unknown said...
Is TLM an "E-ticket" for me?
Hell ya'! When it was originally announced as being in production in "Eyes n' Ears" for DCA several months ago. I told my family I was going to have to go back to Cali for the first time in over 15 yrs.
TLM is a huge piece of my childhood. My Dad was a mid-level mgr at DLH in the 90s when TLM first came out. I remember being 6-7 yrs old and going to a WDI open house and seeing the concept art for the ride after the movie came out.
I'm estatic to hear now as a former MK BBB Fall 07 CP that Fantasyland is going to get TLM. Though I myself am wondering where it's going to go if it isn't going to fill in the left over space from "Leagues"--they suck for removing it. I know what's "behind" IASM, Grotto, etc. And Toon Town is getting Pixie Hollow--actually, it should have it already. So, other than filling in Pooh's Playground. (Isn't that "League's" as well?) I don't know where this attraction would go, but I'm really happy that it's coming! - May 30, 2008 at 5:43 PM

Why Particular Attention Needs to Be Paid to the Cleaning Agent When Handling the Novel COVID-19 Coronavirus
When you are looking to undertake a cleaning or sanitization effort to protect against the Coronavirus in your business or home, the first step is often to look for cleaning products and agents that can kill the pathogen. Products like Clorox Bleach, bleach wipes, Lysol and others including commercially available cleaning products simply just won't get the job done. Why is that? Because their kill claims say so. Choosing the right cleaning agent is critical to ensuring the mitigation of risk and exposure and that requires choosing a product and manufacturer that makes kill claims without caveats, and specifically notes the Coronavirus. At Peniel Environmental we only use sanitization agents that claim 100% efficacy in it's kill claims with specific regards to the Coronavirus. But that's not all you need to ensure…

The Real Concern Should be in the Cleaning and Sanitization Process When it Comes to the Coronavirus
Most people and cleaning companies, including those that claim to handle infectious disease as part of their service offerings don't understand the necessary processes to ensuring the eradication of such a lethal pathogen like the novel Coronavirus. This pathogen is quite durable with it's ability to live for up to 9 days outside of a host on inanimate surfaces. Additionally, in order to kill the virus, your cleaning process must include the necessary steps, and wait (dwell) times during treatment to ensure the sanitization agent (one with 100% kill claims for Coronavirus) is in direct contact with the Coronavirus for the length of it's dwell time, the time necessary for the agent to be able to eradicate the sturdy virus. Removing the agent before the dwell times, or using an agent such as those available at your local stores, will not ensure it's eradication and may lead to a false sense of security with regards to exposure and risk. Peniel Environmental, and representatives on it's Emergency Rapid Response Infectious Disease Unit have over 20 years of experience in dealing with infectious diseases including many of the most feared pathogens we have faced in decades such as Ebola, and drug resistant MRSA.

Therapeutic Pain Injections in Winter Springs, FL
Do you suffer from chronic pain in your joints, spine, or muscles? The best way to treat pain is at the source, and therapeutic injections do just that. Introduced directly to the affected joint, vertebrae, intravertebral disc, or muscle, therapeutic injections may result in fast and long-lasting pain relief. Pain relief injections can even be used to gently manipulate nerves, reducing their ability to transmit pain signals to your brain.
Each treatment typically takes about an hour and can be performed as an outpatient procedure. Little or no downtime is required, so you can get back to your daily activities with no hospital stay or long recovery time. Though you may enjoy pain relief shortly after treatment, as with all medical procedures, results vary.
Types of Pain Injections
Targeted facet joint injections
These injections can eliminate several ailments at once. Pain from tiny facet joints can radiate to the legs, arms and head. Treating these joints near the vertebra can also help reduce the effects of degenerative disorders, neck pain, and restricted movement.
Epidural steroid injection
Pressure from inflamed tissues or intervertebral discs in the spinal column can cause chronic severe pain. In this situation, doctors may choose to administer an epidural steroid injection, bathing the agitated nerve to diminish pressure and pain. If this procedure results in short-term benefit or is ineffective, direct injection of steroids into the intervertebral disc can provide improved and longer-term relief.
Growth factors and/or stem cells injected directly into the intervertebral disc often result in a greater degree of pain relief with much more thorough, long-lasting benefits than steroids. Occasionally, these injections may completely solve the problem.
Steroid, growth factor, and anesthetic injection
A carefully formulated mix of steroids and/or growth factors with anesthetic reduces inflammation, diminishes pain, treats certain diseases, and improves range of mobility in the nearly any joint. It is especially effective in treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, tendonitis, bursitis, gout, and even carpal tunnel syndrome.
Direct nerve injection
Pain and numbness in your extremities is often caused by irritation in the spinal nerve – and that's where the pain should be treated. Once your doctor identifies the correct nerve pathway, a simple injection blocks the nerve from sending pain signals to your brain. Chronic headaches, peripheral vascular disease, stenosis, shingles, traumatic injury, neuralgia and chronic pancreatitis are some of the painful conditions that nerve block injections may improve.
Trigger point injection
When a muscle accumulates waste or such extreme tension that is can't relax, painful knots can develop. Left untreated, these knots can get worse and damage surrounding nerves, sending pain signals to other areas of your body. Trigger point injections can instantly relieve the pain associated with these sensitive points and can also reduce or eliminate fibromyalgia pain.
Reserve Your Appointment Today
Chronic muscle or joint pain doesn't have to disrupt your health, happiness, or quality of life. Pain management injections can provide both short and long-term pain relief solutions, helping you get back to living a less painful or even pain-free life.

By Jesse J. Holland
The Associated Press
States can't demand proof of citizenship from people registering to vote in federal elections unless they get federal or court approval to do so, the Supreme Court ruled June 17 in a decision complicating efforts in Arizona and other states to bar voting by people who are in the country illegally.
The justices' 7-2 ruling closes the door on states independently changing the requirements for those using the voter-registration form produced under the federal "motor voter" registration law. They would need permission from a federally created panel, the Election Assistance Commission, or a federal court ruling overturning the commission's decision, to make tougher requirements stick.
Justice Antonin Scalia, who wrote the court's majority opinion, said federal law "precludes Arizona from requiring a federal form applicant to submit information beyond that required by the form itself."
Voting rights advocates welcomed the ruling.
"Today's decision sends a strong message that states cannot block their citizens from registering to vote by superimposing burdensome paperwork requirements on top of federal law," said Nina Perales, vice president of litigation for the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund. "The Supreme Court has affirmed that all U.S. citizens have the right to register to vote using the national postcard, regardless of the state in which they live."
Under Proposition 200 approved in 2004, Arizona officials required an Arizona driver's license issued after 1996, a U.S. birth certificate, a passport, or other similar document before the state would approve the federal registration application. It can no longer do that on its own authority.
Less than 5 percent of people registering to vote in Arizona use the federal form, said Matt Roberts, a spokesman for Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett. The rest register through the state, meaning they will continue to be asked to provide proof of citizenship when signing up to vote.
But because of the court ruling, people can merely choose the less onerous federal form, which asks people to swear if they are citizens or not, but does not demand proof.
Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne, who argued the case before the Supreme Court, expects the state will ask the Election Assistance Commission to approve the citizenship proof on the federal form and to fight any denial in court — the process laid out in the June 17 ruling.
"The U.S. Supreme Court has given us a clear path to victory for the people of Arizona, who overwhelmingly approved the state constitutional amendment that was the subject of the legal challenge," Horne said. "Since the U.S. Supreme Court has made it clear that this pathway exists, Arizona should use it. The sanctity of the ballot box is a cherished right for all Americans and it must be protected."
Federal officials deadlocked on Arizona's request in 2005, and the state did not appeal.
Tom Caso, a professor at Chapman University School of Law in California and supporter of the Arizona law, said the decision "opened the door" to noncitizen voting.
"The court's decision ignores the clear dictates of the Constitution in favor of bureaucratic red tape," Caso said. "The notion that the court will not enforce the Constitution unless you first apply to a commission that cannot act because it has no members is mind-boggling."
Currently, the Election Assistance Commission has no active commissioners. The four commissioners are supposed to be nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate. The last two left in 2011, according to the panel's website.
Kathy McKee, who led the push to get Proposition 200 on the ballot in Arizona, said the ruling makes it harder to combat voter fraud, including fraud carried out by people who don't have permission to be in the country. "To even suggest that the honor system works, really?" McKee said. "You have to prove who you are just to use your charge card now."
Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito were the only two dissenters. Alito said the decision means that Arizona now has two voter registration systems, and that the success of an applicant could come simply by the system he or she chooses. "I find it very hard to believe that this is what Congress had in mind," he said.
Opponents of Arizona's law saw it as an attack on vulnerable voter groups such as minorities, immigrants and the elderly. They say they've counted more than 31,000 potentially legal voters in Arizona who easily could have registered before Proposition 200 but were blocked by the state law in the 20 months after it passed. They say about 20 percent of those thwarted were Latino.
Arizona officials say they should be able to pass laws to stop noncitizens from getting on their voting rolls. The Arizona voting law was part of a package that also denied some government benefits to people in the country illegally and required Arizonans to show identification before voting.
Arizona can ask the federal government to include the extra documents as a state-specific requirement, Scalia said, and challenge any adverse decision by the government in court. Louisiana's request already has been granted, Scalia said.
The ruling upholds one by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which said the 1993 National Voter Registration Act of 1993 trumps Arizona's Proposition 200. (end)

5 x 2 in
Primer Wipe (Do Not Flush)
Tattoos with For Now Ink™
Easy-To-Understand Instructions
Branded Packaging (while supplies last)
We offer international shipping! You can click here to learn more about where we ship to and our rates. Once you order your tattoo, we make your tattoo from scratch! Visit our Shipping Page for up to date shipping and processing times. Once your order ships, you'll receive a shipping confirmation email that contains your tracking number.
Received your Inkbox and changed your mind? We are happy to help you with any Inkbox products within 14 days from the day it was received, with some exceptions. To learn more about our return policy, please visit our returns page or send us an email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Moisturizing daily will keep your skin hydrated and healthy, keeping your Inkbox looking fresh for longer. However, you'll want to wait at least 8 hours after applying your tattoo to moisturize.
To keep your For Now Ink™ looking fresh, you want to avoid anything that exfoliates your skin. Since Inkbox sits in the top layer of your skin, the faster it exfoliates the faster your tattoo will fade.
Please, don't stop showering on our behalf, just be mindful not to scrub the tattoo while soaping up. When toweling off, make sure to pat your tattoo dry and not rub it.
The first night that you're sleeping, make sure you wear loose long sleeves or clothing that covers your tattoo to avoid transferring the ink to another body part. Trust us, you might be surprised when you wake up with two tattoos!
While our ink works on all skin tones, the resulting color will vary person-to-person, because our ink will interact differently with your skin chemistry.
This means that the final result can be anywhere from a blue/green to a dark blue-black- meaning that the color of your tattoo is completely unique to you!
Our ink will fade as your skin naturally regenerates! Some factors that determine how long your tattoo will last include:
Daily Activity:
Avoid excessive heat, water or friction cause by exfoliation
Spots that may get washed or be exposed to more friction, such as hands or wrists, will generally fade faster.
A more moisturized tattoo will last longer + staying hydrated also helps!
Your skin's unique chemistry:
While our ink works on all skin tones, the resulting color will vary person-to-person, because our ink will interact differently with your unique skin chemistry!
Here's a gif below to show you how your tattoo will fade over time!
Get inspired by how others are styling their ink. Tag us on Instagram @inkbox for a chance to be featured!
How does Inkbox work?
Unlike most temp tattoos, Inkbox works by sinking into your skin and doesn't just stick on top. Our tattoos are painless and super easy to apply - there are only a few steps involved! Once applied the ink reacts with the proteins and keratin in your skin, and darkens over 24-36 hours. For more on catalog designs, click here. To see how the Freehand Tattoo Marker works, click here.
How long does an Inkbox tattoo last? What if I want to remove it sooner?
Our tattoos can last up to 10 days. How long it lasts is highly dependent on where you apply your tattoo, your daily activities and skin's moisture. Our ink gradually fades away as your skin naturally regenerates.
Want to remove it sooner? Lightly scrub your skin with an exfoliant (like warm saltwater or a body scrub). Be gentle with your skin - it may take a few tries to remove the ink entirely.
What color/shade will my tattoo be?
On the tattoo applicator, you'll notice the ink is a light blue shade. This is how the tattoo will look when first applied to your skin - but don't worry! Over 24-36 hours, your tattoo will darken into a tattoo-like shade - it's all part of the Inkbox magic! For more on how our ink develops, click here.
Is Inkbox safe?
Yes, our For Now Ink™ formula has been tested for product safety to ensure it meets cosmetic regulatory requirements. Our tattoos are clinically tested. Check out a full list of ingredients here.
If you're worried about skin allergies or you're experiencing discomfort post-application, please send us an email at email@example.com!
What tattoo sizes do you offer?
Our tattoos come in the following canvas sizes: 1x1", 2x2", 3x3", 4x4", 5x2", 7x2", 6x3", 6.5x6.5", and 5.5x9". Please note that the usable design space for the tattoo design is roughly 0.25" smaller than the canvas itself. More information on this can be found here.
Do Inkbox products expire?
Our For Now Ink™ has a shelf life of 9 months and should be stored in a cool, dry location.
Our Freehand Tattoo Markers have a shelf life of 30 months and a 3 month PAO (Period After Opening). This means the product should be used within 3 months after opening. Make sure to always keep the cap on, keep the marker horizontal, and store at room temperature out of direct sunlight.
Where do you ship to?
We ship to most international locations! For a full list of countries, visit our Shipping Page.
US and Canadian customers will never be charged duty fees. International orders may be subject to duties and taxes based on the value of the order and the tax-free threshold of the destination country. For more information, click here.
Can I cancel or return my order?
We can cancel your order as long as it hasn't been processed or shipped out.
If you want to return your order, our team will need your order number and reason for return.
Send us an email at email@example.com and we'll try our best to help you!
How is Inkbox different from Henna or Jagua?

Measuring Guide for Composite Doors
Step 1
Width: Measure in 3 points; top, middle and bottom and take the smallest measurement and deduct 10mm.
Step 2
Height: Measure again in 3 points; left, centre and right and take the smallest measurement and deduct 10mm. Measure to the underside of the existing cill unless it is NOT going to be replaced i.e concrete cill.
Step 3
Diagonals: Ensure the opening is square by measuring the diagonals as shown in red. There should be no more than 5mm difference between each measurement.
Step 4
Repeat the process from the inside of the door from plasterwork to plasterwork make not of the smallest measurements as before.
Please note: The lower the U value the better, as this means the door is more energy efficient and will retain heat inside the home better. All doors meet current 2022 building regulations.
All composite doors have U values between 1.2 and 1.8. This is dependent on the exact door design and glass option specified.
The Mustang range is also dependent on design, but these doors offer impressive energy performance with U values as low as 0.92. (Thats very low!)
Our doors are no different to fit to any other door hung in an outer frame, which means they require skill and care. We understand that many people like to source their own installer to save money, or even 'have a go' themselves if you are a handy DIYer! Please consult our installation guide before ordering, and ensure any tradesmen you have lined up are competent.
If installed correctly, our doors will require little to no maintenance. Almost all of the issues reported with entrance doors are down to improper installation, so please exercise caution!
Yes, we can offer marine-grade upgrades for customers who live within 10 miles of the coast.
Deciding which threshold and sill combination you have on your door is perhaps the most important decision. If the wrong threshold is selected, you could have issues with floor levels and the door opening clearance. There are various thresholds to choose from, and we recommend consulting the help icon on the website for a detailed explanation of each. If you are in doubt, please call or email us for advice on choosing the right threshold.
All products have measuring instructions on the product page.
Our best offering is the Mustang door, which can achieve an impressive U value as low as 0.92.
Planning permission is not typically required for replacement entrance doors, providing you are not making any alterations to the original aperture.
For refurbishment projects in a property you own, you will not need any building control or authority sign off providing you are replacing the current doors with an improved or like-for-like product.
For new builds and extensions, the products will need building regulations consent and must meet the current recommended minimum requirements. Further accreditations such as document Q, PAS24 and Police Approved may not be essential, but check that your architect or authority has not specified this.
All door ranges are available with a range of side panels and top lights, which you can select and design on the door designers.
The entrance door is the first thing many people look at on a new home and it is often the focal point of a building - with that in mind, how do you know which door is best for you?
We recommend the first consideration is budget - aluminium are truly stunning but being a true aluminium product they are more expensive than a composite alternative. If budget permits, an aluminium door is recommended (especially to match aluminium windows). With that said, if you are installing uPVC windows then a composite door is a great choice as they have matching uPVC frames and offer massive design variety.
Once your budget is established, you should then consider the key points of each door to decide which is more suitable for your project:
Energy efficiency - all are good energy performers but Mustang has very impressive energy ratings.
Security - all doors have the same accreditations in this respect. However, a Mustang door is the thickest and heaviest door.
Looks - Mustang is a very modern-looking product, Solidor and Door-Stop offer both modern and traditional appearances.
Value for money - Door-Stop is our most competitive door and superb value for money.
We proudly display every brand we supply, and any research into these brands will confirm they are of impeccable quality. We offer aluminium and composite entrance door options, two of the strongest and most secure materials that you can choose for a front door. Our composite doors are official Solidor Doors, arguably the most popular door in the UK. We also offer a choice of high-end aluminium doors, from some of the most reputable fabricators in Europe.
The Solidor door range boasts a huge range of glass options, from decorative leading, traditional coloured lights and stylish triple glazed, ornate options.
The Mustang range has a more simplified glass offering, which is either clear, satin sandblasted or sandblasted with horizontal lines.
Yes we provide low threshold options on all door ranges.
Solidor offer a range of locking and hardware options, from traditional lever handles and handless key only options, right through to designer stainless steel bar handles. Please visit our door designer to view all of the options.
Mustang doors come with a contemporary stainless steel bar handle as standard. Spitfire Doors always have a lever handle on the inside of the door, that compliments internal door handles.
Absolutely not! Both our aluminium and composite doors are developed so that they will never need painting, and will stay looking great for many, many years with very little maintenance.
All of our doors come with 3 keys as standard, but more can be provided upon request.
All of our entrance doors are highly secure, and meet all leading UK security accreditations including PAS24, Police Approved and part Q. We offer either 3 or 5 point multipoint locks, 3 star security cylinders and optional upgrades such as security chains and door entry guards.
