Yes it is the Killarney wagon that was butchered, if you'd like to use that terminology. The Italy wagon is still missing somewhere in storage, deep, deep, storage.

I've started naming rooms by what stupid things are hanging down. Like "scary flashy light room", "scary PVC pipe room" and "scary S&M chain room". My son thought it was funny to wind the chains around his arms and then nearly ripped himself apart because they hooked together.
The bungy guy is REALLY GOOD. He was like so close to my son, that my son could feel the air move. But didn't hit him.
I'll try this one again in a couple weeks, maybe it will have enough scare actors then.
And once again, too many monsters saying "get out", or making one-word startles. Make a character guys. Engage the guests. Creep them out. Ask us to stay instead of going. Remember, they can do pop-up scares with animatronics -- live people can interact.

The park filmed some awful pirate video with a toaster and posted it to YouTube. Enjoy... I guess.
Who am I kidding, this is horrible. It's 2013. Who on earth uploads a 360p video in 2013?

I spy Monster Stomp Revamped costumes.
I actually didn't mind it too bad. I don't like how it is light hearted because that just gives parents another reason to bring their kids.

Also, David pointed out that the park has once again pulled their official Cut Throat Cove video (you know, the one that's actually really great). Well, whatever, I reuploaded it below. If the park wants it pulled, they can contact me.

Now why on earth would the park constantly publish then pull the video? It is surprisingly a good video. Perhaps it was made by the same people who did the Catacombs, 13, and Fear Fair previews.

I don't attempt to understand the ways of the park's social media team. After all, they're the professionals, right? Who are we to question their reasoning? This constant posting and pulling of videos is clearly an extremely highly regarded and respected tactic within the marketing industry. Our feeble brains simply can't grasp how this stuff works. That's why professional social media staff exist, right?

Maybe they don't want Disney suing them over the music?

I thought of that at first, but then again the music doesn't sound exactly from PotC, just similar tunes.

Disney doesn't own the rights to pirate music. They could make any variation they want, as long as it's not exactly the same.

Not what I meant. It sounds like a musical variation to the Pirates of the Caribbean theme. In classical ballet, all of the solos are called "variations," because generally each piece of music is actually a musical variation on the main theme.
From Encyclopaedia Brittanica:
"musical variation, basic music technique consisting of changing the music melodically, harmonically, or contrapuntally. The simplest variation type is the variation set. In this form of composition, two or more sections are based on the same musical material, which is treated with different variational techniques in each section.
In Renaissance vocal music there were two principal variation techniques: contrapuntal variations following the stanzas of strophic chants; and sets of variations over a single, often quite lengthy, foundation voice in a mass or motet. In instrumental music a quite different sort of variation began to appear, one of great significance for following eras. Some of the earliest preserved instrumental music consists of dances, often in sets of two, with the second based on the same melody as the first but in a different tempo and metre.
In the early 1600s, the first years of the Baroque era, composers became increasingly enamoured of constructing works over brief, incessantly repeated melodic figures in the lowest voice of the piece. Composers of this time became more and more attracted to the unfolding of rich, flowery, expressive melodic lines over such basses. Variations over a bass were the most popular and important type of variation in the Baroque era, but composers continued to write other kinds as well. In J.S. Bach’s monumental Goldberg Variations the lengthy theme (16 + 16 measures) is followed by 30 variations before a return to a simple reprise of the original air. The variations use a wide range of different metres and tempos. This composition is generally regarded as one of the true monuments of figural-contrapuntal variation.
A common feature of all variation types is the element of static structure, harmonically and tonally. A melody, a bass pattern, or a harmonic sequence is stated, then repeated, always in the same key or mode, usually with the same length and the same phrase and harmonic contours. Variety and climax are achieved by contrast in number of voices and texture, by the richness and complexity of melodic figuration, sometimes by changes in metre and tempo. In the mid-18th century, a major change of concept in musical structure took place. Composers became increasingly concerned with harmonic and tonal goal orientation. A composition should begin and end in the same tonality, or key. More importantly, the other keys were arranged in a hierarchy, according to the strength of their relation to one another. A composition should move from the original, or tonic, key through a series of keys. The resulting feeling of tonal movement gives a direction and forward thrust to the piece until it finally reaches the dominant key (a fifth above the tonic and the tonality with the strongest, most compulsive relationship to the tonic), where it dwells for a time before it finally goes back “home” to the tonic."
