Sometimes it feels like they are often just taking steps to do damage control instead of truthfully taking suggestions to heart and actually making corrective measures.<BR/><BR/>Currently, the creative capabilities at Imagineering remain bogged down. Real creative initiatives are being strangled by financial restrictions. This seems counter to many of the other divisions, which appear to get all the financial support they need. Pirates of the Caribbean wouldn’t have been the success it was if the studio had been under the same sort of budgetary constraints. <BR/><BR/>Corporate management just doesn’t appear to have the same level of support for the various business units. The parks are a major segment of the company’s foundation. Keeping them in top condition and their attractions at the cutting edge of creativity and technology should be at least as important as a movie, cruise ships or “niche parks” and resorts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22576594.post-17000709055995327972007-03-12T12:02:00.000-07:002007-03-12T12:02:00.000-07:00And if you think your comments fall on deaf ears, ...And if you think your comments fall on deaf ears, perhaps you should watch this news clip.

At first, I thought this would just be a snarky, easy-to-point-out-faults but hard-to-come-up-with-solutions type of blog, but at least it was interesting. It didn't take long to realize that you guys are serious, but moreover, right about most things (the other things I just don't know enough about to say). <BR/><BR/>But as a graphic designer, I'm so glad to see the emphasis being placed on good design - whether architectural, story structure of rides/experiences, signs, even queues, etc. There are some things that I wouldn't have been able to articulate as well without seeing this blog (example: The Swan and Dolphin). <BR/><BR/>Keep up the good fight, and it feels wrong saying this, but Mickey's arm shall one day be cut down and his hat put someplace more appropriate! And fer god's sake have some fun! <BR/><BR/>DaveAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07691823372244026766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22576594.post-72615460177870954092007-02-17T22:29:00.000-08:002007-02-17T22:29:00.000-08:00Great Blog.

Just a quick suggestion here since I can't seem to find any other way to get it to you:<BR/><BR/>Is it possible for someone at Re-Imagineering to set up a communication link where we can contact someone with suggestions for the site? <BR/><BR/>An example to start with: It would be immensely helpful if the response posts were identified with the DATE they were posted. The time currently used is of little benefit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22576594.post-4344234248039387722007-02-17T21:15:00.000-08:002007-02-17T21:15:00.000-08:00Congrats!Interesting site with a great purpose!Congrats!<BR/><BR/>Interesting site with a great purpose!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22576594.post-9277934343842675892007-02-17T13:25:00.000-08:002007-02-17T13:25:00.000-08:00Congrats to all for a great year.
