Re: Small World Changes OFFICIAL! Underground....

I'll say this again, I know I have said it before.

If you want to make a definative change and change the minds of Disney, then alert the SoCal news outlets... get the local news to cover this. Without actual public support (not just a few fan sites covering this) the chances of blocking this decision are minimal at best. Writing Disney won't have an effect, being covered by various news outlets and being deemed "publicly unpopular" will!

Re: Small World Changes OFFICIAL! Underground....

Wow, mouseinfo got this great scoop that Al wrote about 17 days ago, which was followed up with 17 days and 300+ posts about it being only a rumor.

Re: Small World Changes OFFICIAL! Underground....

i agree techskip. Remeber who Disney was completly taken aback when the TSI stuff hit the media and i then the rehab, was i guess, tastefull. I agree that is the LA Times and OC Register would write about it it would force Disney to take a position.

I honestly don't care either way. I see it as one more example of "campaigns don't work". I will gladly add it to my list alongside the Disney Gallery and Mr. Lincoln and cite it when someone proposes another campaign! Like I said you can write emails, type letters, go to the park in large groups wearing a "Save this thing" shirt... but if you want to get attention and actually change a few minds get it on the local news!

Wait this makes no sense. Subtle? Why not just END the damne thing!? Have the power to end this BEFORE they move into the show building.
I didn't say subtle.
I said they would be sure to match the style of the original attraction so to make the additions as natural as possible.

I said it, and it was in reference to the "matching style" comment.

Hate quoting myself.

Ugh. If they're going to add characters to it, then keep Pixar out of it. End of Story

Re: Small World Changes OFFICIAL! Underground....

I'd also like to point out that typing the word "official" in all capital letters and with an exclamation point doesn't mean it is actually official.

HK's IASW is basing their style off the one in Anaheim. In fact they even used blueprints from the World's fair to build the model.

The idea is for them to match the others visually.
