Originally Posted By smedley Looking forward to seeing all this, although we will miss the parade as we decided against MVMCP, hope the lights on the castle are every night though, they're very pretty at DLP We arrive in a week's time, good to know most of it will be up and running.

Originally Posted By mickeymad Thanks jkayjs. I only know it as MGM but will have to get used to the new name!!

Originally Posted By danyoung >I think it's Disney Hollywood Studios. The WDW site still refers to it as Disney's MGM Studios.< That's because it IS still the Disney/MGM Studios. The new name doesn't kick in until the beginning of January, 2008.
Originally Posted By jkayjs Thank you for the info danyoung. I really don't understand why they don't just take the MGM out if they must and call it Disney Studios. The Hollywood part just dosen't flow for me.
Originally Posted By danyoung Because the Disney Studios already exist, more or less, in Burbank and Hollywood.
Originally Posted By jkayjs There are also other MK's. I understand that one would be a working studio and the other a theme park but I honestly don't think it would cause any confusion. Unless there is some legal reason they can't both have the same name I don't see any reason not to use DS. Just my opinion which of course has no weight with Disney. BTW danyoung last time I was @ R&C in July I saw a man @ the end of the bar finishing a martini and thought of you. You weren't there in July were you?

Originally Posted By danyoung >There are also other MK's.< As far as I know, there aren't. You got Disneyland PARK, DL Paris, Tokyo DL, and Hong Kong DL. Only one MK, & that's in Florida. I think Disney does a little too much already with similar names (Fort Wilderness / Wilderness Lodge, etc.). Personally I have no problem with the name. >...last time I was @ R&C in July I saw a man @ the end of the bar finishing a martini and thought of you. You weren't there in July were you?< Sadly, no. The last time I was there was the first week of October, '06. Next trip is the first week of December '07. But that is indeed my spot, at the end of the bar nearest to the piano. Thanks for thinking of me!

Originally Posted By jkayjs When you're right you're right danyoung. Of course I meant DL not MK. I'ld use my age as an excuse but I believe it was just an old fashioned "brain fart". Thanks for getting my old derailed brain back on track. We'll just miss you as we get in the am of the 14th. Have a great trip.
