When someone is reading an Animal Kingdom map while at MGM? Nope, not that hard at all. True story by the way.
We are all a little weird
And life's a little weird,
And when we find someone whose
Weirdness is compatible with ours,
We join up with them and fall in
Mutual weirdness and call it Love.”

Considering that Disney actually got to the point where they made a t-shirt with Goofy asking the ever-popular MK question "What time is the 3 o'clock parade?", I am guessing the answer is yes. :lol:

Considering if you aren't diehard like us, you're an idiot and leave your brain at home. So yes. Most Disney guests are stupid. It's just a fact. :roll: :lol: Some of the crap they say and do...

People were saying that it was monorail red that had been wrapped, if you watch this it appears to be blue with the change.

Thanks for the link! Red is the one that was wrapped though, because there are pictures of it on various sites with only the nose black and covered. The red stripe was visible on the rest of the monorail.

Disney's right hand once again doesn't know what its left hand is doing. :lol: I guess maybe they didn't have current footage readily available of Monorail Red from that vantage point, so they subbed in Blue?

most ppl wouldnt even give it a second thought... but they did that for the matched lighting, and the blue monorail was either before avenger or after it on the beam... they meshed the two together, using the proper lighting for both within 10 minutes of each other on the rail...

That is exactly what I think they did. It's the only way to match the angle almost perfectly.

I saw this on Facebook ~ and it's in DL not WDW ~ but I think it's pretty darned cute! I'm guessing it is from Cars? Is that right?

So, when they did it with Tron, I was ok with it. Theme-wise I felt there was a little bit of a connection and I was OK. The avengers tho, I don't see it at all, and I think it looks totally tacky.
