Originally Posted By retlawfan Thanks again Darkbeer for all the photos. You really like that chicken, don't you? I cannot wait to get down to DCA (I know, it's hard to hear. It's even hard to say). I'm looking forward to seeing how the Monster's Inc and surrounding area will turn out. I don't remember. When is it supposed to open?

Originally Posted By woody Again, why is Monsters taking so long? Maybe it has nothing to do with the ride, but everything to do with the new renovation of the area. Why not move the opening to March in time for spring break?
