Topic: UNconfirmed rumor - HISTA to close after Labor Day

1	Darkbeer Sat 8/2/2008 4:15p	Anybody have any further info? I know that Disney is seriously looking at cutting back CM hours. The Fantasmic refurb, as well the Aladdin refurbs are timed to maximize the labor savbings with their return dates. They have done it in the past with the Electrical Parade. Is this a "Forever" closing, or is it just a savings in labor for the off-season, IF it is true...

If I were making budget cuts due to a slow economy, this one would be on the list :( I can't recall the last time we even saw it! To me it's not like Star Tours that you do again and again.

4	mstaft Sat 8/2/2008 7:12p	I say "Adios!" A mediocre attraction at best.
5	Elderp Sat 8/2/2008 7:18p	I am ok with it closing. I wont miss it one bit. Besides I rather get spit by a virtual balloon than a virtual oversized dog.
6	FiveBearRugs Sat 8/2/2008 7:23p	Hmmm...a stage inside HISTA? We could bring back the TLand Stage of yore...or, dare I say it, Videopolis... Or the Wall-E 3D adventure :)
7	SpokkerJones Sat 8/2/2008 7:25p	If they want to save, closing HISTA is the perfect way to do it. What's another empty waste of space in Disneyland? Bring it on.
8	SpokkerJones Sat 8/2/2008 7:26p	Though I wonder why they would HAVE to close it considering it's sponsored by Kodak and the entire pre-show is Kodak propaganda.
