Unfortunately most people don't understand context, they see what they believe. They've been trained by the TV news to do that. They want short extremely edited segments nothing that would conflict with their already held beliefs about the situation.

Though it could also be that the CM did start immediately yelling into the microphone. Not necessarily to be mean, but simply because COP doesn't have the most modern of audio equipment. Or he could've had a bad day and was taking it out on the guests, who knows.

But either way security should've been waiting outside to have a chat with them.

Is it possible to talk to 1 theater without disrupting the rest? I'm guessing that 1 person got up, everyone heard the CM's announcement about sitting down, then people in other theaters started to get up and leave. I'm used to only handling 1 audience at a time, I wonder how annoying it must be to deal with 5 at once.

Are there any points around the carousel where the wall or fence meets with the rotating building?

No. The walkway is continuous around the entire building.

Walt's favorite, most important attraction? If they do that, then they should dig Walt up and put some magnets on him, because you might as well make it useful if you're gonna have him spinning that fast in is grave.


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

While I hate to hear this, wasn't there a rumor somewhere that the CoP was offered to the Smithsonian?


Parties of 33 should consider dividing their parties into two groups of 16 and a half each.

I've heard this as a rumor every single time Tomorrowland gets a re-vamp or expansion so I can't put much stock into it being true.

Although Wallaby has a good point if they do!

This isn't a rumor: there are Horizons animatronics under the COP.
