The Muppets idea really hit me hard because of how close they were to making it. Some of the others were just concepts but the Muppet Movie Ride was real and about to be implemented. I'm trying to plan an interview with a man who worked on the Mickey's Movieland concept before the Studios opened and hope I can do that sometime next week or so. You may find this backstory on Tower of Terror before they decided on Tower of Terror interesting: http://www.towerofterror.org/historyearly.html I interviewed a former Imagineer, McNair Wilson, about it and it's really interesting to hear some of the ideas they came up with. By the way Dave, I think you forgot a link to the article in your piece. And thanks for the plug :) Matt I’m glad I’m not the only one who enjoys reading about attractions that never happened.
