That's pretty much what I've heard too. You'd think that they'd know what they wanted in advance but noooooooo. They just havent been thinking things through. The planning doesn't seem to get past "build me a cool looking monorail" or "build me a 30 foot tall fire breathing dragon." Disney is not a company that seems to learn from its mistakes. Or to stick with what worked in the past.

But we knew all that already, right?
