^Wow. That sounds very promising. I could care less about the other clubs, but Adventurers Club? Please, dear Uncle Walt, let this be true.
I was, but I got my name changed.
Here's where we stand now according to various sources of mine:
Very recently...as in the past 2 months or so when all of the management switching happened...someone from Burbank noticed that Pleasure Island was bad show and wanted something done about it. Allegedly, the Adventurers Club, Comedy Warehouse, and Mannequins are slated to reopen in some form. The timeline is, best case scenario: Halloween, and worst case scenario: New Years Eve. IMO, both dates are ambitious. If I had to guess Mannequins would reopen first (just needs lighting and sound re-installed. the revolving floor is still there), and the Adventurers Club would reopen last. It will need every last second of the next 4 months to be show ready again (these photos were taken November 2009: http://www.discussionkingdom.com/forums/showpost.php?p=51047&postcount=623 )
Sources have also heard that the former show director of the AC is in charge of something to do with what's happening. This suggests/confirms that Disney will at least run one of the reopened establishments. One would guess the AC. Previously, it had been thought that 3rd parties would be running the newly reopened clubs, but now, the case may be that Disney will run all 3.
To add fuel to the AC fire, someone from WDI Florida sent a pic of a box of masks with electronic components similar to those that used to occupy the Mask Room. It is unclear whether or not they are for the AC though.
Finally, it has been alleged that casting for Pleasure Island roles has begun internally. Still not clear on this one though, but if Halloween really is the target, it is nearly time for this to begin.
Halloween?! Wow. They want this done fast. I'd be pretty impressed if everything is open, and done well, by then.
So the worst case scenario still has them opening this year? I'm surprised, I'd think it would take longer than that, and especially longer than Halloween!
you people have made my day! I know rumors are just rumors and I've been hearing some talk, but I just hope they keep Comedy Warehouse! I know a bunch of people are AC diehards, but I would find time to go every night if it came back. I wonder if they will add these back to the AP instead of the Golf crap.
oooh, a wharf district? thank God. Pleasure Island's dead district was really getting boring.
i wish they would take the Adventurer's Club and turn that into a restaurant. from wat my parents have told me, it sounded like a really cool place. if they keep it for the wharf, ill so go there.

Today, an AC cast member posted a picture of the Balderdash Cup, Bessie, and a few other props on FB. That CM says they are rehearsing for an "internal event." A former CW CM also claims to be rehearsing CW shows for said "internal event."
Not sure what this means or if it means anything at all. A few months ago, it was rumored that select clubs would reopen for NYE, but since then, TDO stripped the AC exterior of its identity.
I can't tell where the picture was taken, but I do see some encouraging things in the picture. If it's the PI sub-basement, that's exciting.

That's great for people waiting, but I can see how that would get annoying if you're in the middle of a game.
