Let me know I you need a copy of Cast Member Confidential for review. I’d be happy to send one over.

By the way, that was sarcasm in the first line of my comment above!

Hey, Mission Space is every bit as good as The Indiana Jones Adventure at DL
You forgot to mention that Horizons never killed anyone! Love the lost Horizons song…..thanks for sharing that!

Splash Mt. being that close to the Haunted Mansion has ALWAYS bothered me! Before Splash Mt. was built, there was just a hill with some trees on it in that spot…a much better backdrop for the Mansion.

Another great Progcast, guys!

I’m listening to the new episode right now (it’s fantastic btw!). A couple things I couldn’t wait to say…First, I thought webcot was great. Second, you used the phrase “choose your future” for Horizons, and I’m kicking myself for not phrasing it that way on my pin (I designed the “choose your own ending” Horizons pin). “Choose your future” is infinitely more elegant.

Anyway, gotta get back to the episode!

According to the D23 site, it looks like it’s on after all, folks.

I could be way off base here but “Project Future” sounds an awful lot like “Married to the Mouse”. Obviously, I would assume, done in a slightly different format.

Middlebrow: That’s a good point, and I’ll fix it. There’s definitely a difference between being an artist at an animation studio and being an animator. Just sloppy wording on my part.

Robin: Just sticking to the parks, off the top of my head the list would include:

- Richard Beard’s “Walt Disney’s Epcot Center: Creating the New World of Tomorrow” (My favorite!)
- Jeff Kurtti’s “Since the World Began”
- Jason Surrell’s books about Pirates, Mansion, and Disney Mountains
- Anything by Bruce Gordon, and/or David Mumford
- “Designing Disney’s Theme Parks: The Architecture of Reassurance”

There are many others, and it’s something that I need to write about…

What would say are your favourite books on the subject of Disney and the Parks?

I’ve read quite a few, but I’m always on the lookout for more.
