    Roller Coaster Tycoon 4

    I too am skeptical of this new game, but depending on cost may give the mobile version a try. I would have been ecstatic to just get a port of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2.

    Amazing Spider-Man 2

    Disney already has a deal worked out with Sony. In exchange for the merchandising rights Disney will no longer require Sony to make new Spider-Man films every so many years.

    The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade (Orlando): Part 2

    You will probably have to dig up the financial reports and conference calls from that time. I do not know if Universal City Development Partners had their own calls or if the information was discussed, likely very briefly, on the GE and/or Blackstone calls. I do know that they filed their...

    The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade (Orlando): Part 2

    The ownership slit was an even 50/50. IF you're feeling adventurous you can read the partnership agreement online. http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1262449/000095013603002247/file002.htm I am fairly confident that was the last version of the agreement.

    Amazing Spider-Man 2

    It seemed like Spider-Man became a breaking point after being given hope. It has me thinking of Syndrome in The Incredibles.

    Wizarding World - Diagon Alley Discussion - Part 2

    The plans would show stairs regardless of whether or not they are guest accessible.

    Upper level seating areas could probably get around needing elevators if there is also seating on the ground floor that is accessible.

    And probably a need for slower animation to create a consistency between physical and digital characters.

    The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade (Orlando): Part 2

    The original licensing contract is with Warner Bros. Consumer Products. http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1262449/000119312507178559/dex1041.htm

    Wizarding World - Diagon Alley Discussion - Part 2

    I thought it had been said it is a Doppelmayr cable car system, a big evolution of Ocean Express at Ocean Park.

    The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade (Orlando): Part 2

    Disney wasn't willing to a land, much less one intentionally left too small without guaranteed money makers like Coke and generic merchandise.

    Blackfish (The Tillikum Documentary)

    The producers deny that she is involved in the film and came to know members of the cast during the course of her investigation. Still, that sort of involved interaction during ongoing legal proceedings seems to be incredibly suspect.

    Film sets and theme park facades are often designed to cast more dramatic shadows.

    Frozen Ever After

    I really enjoyed Frozen but do not at all like the idea of it being at the Norway Pavilion. It is not a Norwegian story. It is an American story set in Norway that is loosely based on a story by a Danish author. World Showcase is supposed to be about the various peoples and cultures presented...

    CityWalk Expansion

    Weird name and branding characters, but I enjoy visiting my local store. I think it'll be a nice addition and better than Cold Stone for a cold treat on a hot day since its not as heavy. Hot Dog Hall of Fame was developed and is operated by Schussler Creative, so it is not really a small...

    CityWalk Expansion

    Menchies, Cold Stone and Hot Dog Hall of Fame are all pre-existing as well. I am hoping the Menchies will include Pinapple Dole Whip as a regular choice.

    CityWalk Expansion

    Maybe I'm alone in this, but I think Publix makes damn fine sandwiches. I would be more than happy if Bread Box offers Publix quality.

    Amazing Spider-Man 2

    The trailer has really knocked down my excitement for this film. It does just come across as throwing a ton of stuff in to get it in.
