Originally Posted By HokieSkipper I think the second will be around a billion. 3rd will be well under. 3-D is becoming an annoyance to the consumer rather than this revolution people thought it was. By the time these movies come out people will be over the format.

Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer >>Just being mindless "fun" is not what made Disney, DISNEY<<< For the most part, yes. Again, I would not have a problem with things like TSMM if they didn't cost so much money, and weren't the only things that Disney built these days.

Originally Posted By Kennesaw Tom <<We are getting two in FLE. Happy? >> I don't consider any of that "new". The Fantasyland reclaimation project is hardly an "extension". Technically speaking ( and I'm sure you are aware of this ) only one of the "spinners" will be new, the other one is being moved from in front of the castle, where apparently it is an abomination which requires it being moved to a "less conspicuous" place. Probably to make way for more space for Princess meet and greets or stroller parking.

No Manfried you silly person a Disney park is not meant to be fun. You have to treat it as if it were the house of the Lord himself speaking in hushed tones.
