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?

Adding new requirements after it is no longer prudent or even possible to accommodate them? That never happens.

So you're saying Disney is infested with product managers too?

Why dost thou try to hurt me so? If you prick me, do I not cancel your contract out of spite? Do I not blame a product's failure on the inability of developers to provide quality on a timely budget?

Sayyyy, I wish they'd drop the other shoe and throw the spotlights on the dragon and give us a gander at what the new shenanigans is all about. Let's put all this cockamamie Murphy talk to bed. Get? Murphy? Murphy Bed. These are the jokes, kids.

Should we save space for anyone else? Isaac and I are going. This is terrible, but I (half) kidded Keith that the dragon won't premier until the day after he leaves, so would he please teleport back to Vegas. He extended his stay by one day to be here last night when it was supposed to debut. But I told him if he was gonna do that, it wouldn't debut till Tuesday night.


I kinda have to be there in person to see if my theory proves right.
