8/30: Murphy the Dragon suffered a rather public humiliation during the first Fantasmic! show Sat. night. The infrastructure of the sophisticated animatronic failed after a busy summer of twice-nightly performances, snapping some internal components and nearly dislodging the entire dragon from its hydraulically lifted mounts. It's too early to tell how long it will be before a fix is completed. Although the initial rumors from the Entertainment Dept of 4 to 6 months of downtime are probably over-dramatized, it's fairly safe to say that the dragon won't be in the remaining shows through Labor Day weekend. They didn't christen that dragon Murphy for nothing. - Al Lutz
Is it just me or does it seem like something's not right at Disney. Broken Yeti, broken World of Color platform, crappy Rocket Rods, heavy Space Mtn cars ruining the track, new monorails with windows that don't open...

Bah. I KNEW I should have high-tailed it to Fantasmic earlier this summer.

Um, will someone please remind me why I purchased an AP. I barely go to the Park anymore.

Your "something's not right" spans 12 years.

Totally.
Maybe they're not spending enough money on engineering or something? I don't know. Just a wonderin'.

The dragon wasn't built by Disney, but an outside contractor, who was also responsible for last year's idiot mistake.

Rocket Rods and Light Magic were made from a different outside contractor.

Disney really needs to stop contracting. Really.
