Mickey's house isn't staying

[DMC-12]

:brick: That is really, really disappointing, but that's just me. I was really hoping for some info out of this.

No... your right... sounds like a waste to me IMO. No offense to anyone... just saying is all.

Not sure I really care about toontown disappearing, however the idea of Pixie Hollow certainly does not excite me. Maybe, just maybe we will get something worthwhile in that space?

OMG! Where am I going to tell my kids that Mickey and Minnie live now? Let's do an internet petition to stop this madness! Disney can't do this! These are their main characters!! WHY DISNEY?! :fork::fork::fork:

You could tell them that Mickey and Minnie's actual home is at Disneyland in that Toontown, and that the homes at Disney World were just their vacation homes. I remember hearing a story similar to that while I was working in Toontown on the College Program

 

[ryanduggers]

just move them to the other side of the railroad tracks, opposite the new FL train station, or along the back path to TL.

I really hope you're only being sarcastic.

Mickey and Minnie's permanent homes are at Disneyland in California. At WDW, they're technically "on vacation" or "just visiting".

Then why do they have exact replicas at TDL? :lol: Seriously, I really wish WDI wouldn't take the stories for the lands and attractions so uber seriously like this. Its unnecessary. We shouldn't miss out on a proper toon town just because of this.

I would put them in a wonderful new Hollywood-esque Toon Town near the Animation Courtyard. But that's just me, and I'm out my mind.:lookaroun


:lol:

I would love to see this! appropriate - right in the center of their town in "Hollywood"... Oh and I would love a WDW version of roger rabbit, again perfect at hollywood studios!

People read far too much into some vague answers given in interviews.

Yup! I really wish people would get over that, it's becoming SO annoying!:brick:

Will not comment on grounds it might incriminate me...:lookaroun

Who can keep up two mortgages in this economy? :shrug:

You'd think the Mouse family would be one of those.

:lol:


Not even the Mouse?!

 

[dreamfinder]

Disneyland in Toontown where they've always lived. These are just their country homes anyway.

Ayup. Exactly the case.

 

[rpk4444]

Is there room to move the houses along the path that connects Toontown to Tomorrowland? the one that runs behind the Speedway.

Im sure there is but than where would Alice's Candy Trail go during MNSSHP!!! Am I right? :lookaroun

 

[rpk4444]

I think that it would be cool to move the houses along that trail. As of now, there is nothing there. Plus, it would also give the people on the train something to look at other than grass.

Mickey and Minnie didn't always have house at the Magic Kingdom! I think most children would accept that they live at WDW and leave it at that.

Deliberately so. Some because it's fun to talk about this stuff, but others to stir up as much trouble as they can. The two camps become more defined by the day on this forum.

Almost everything Mark Cole was asked was answered "It's not decided yet" or "It's not been determined yet" or "I'm not sure I have an answer to that" or "I'm not aware of anything like that being planned"... The man has the makings of a great politician or perhaps Presidential Press Secretary. :lol:

There were no real bombshells and nothing I considered "new" during the Q&A. There was stuff I hadn't been aware of in the actual presentation [re-theming of Barnstormer, details of M&Gs, etc...], but mainly in the way of slightly more detail than was known previously. How much of it other people knew or guessed at beforehand I don't know.

They are learning they have to use "lawyer speak" because of the way information travels these days. It's the new reality. Fortunately I'm skilled at seperating the reality from the fantasy or this place would give me a headache :lol:

:brick: That is really, really disappointing, but that's just me. I was really hoping for some info out of this.

Toontown (originally Mickey's birthdayland) was supposed to be temporary. It was the "The Seas with Nemo" of it's day and many purists hated the tackiness of it's aesthetics. Many still do. They can't bulldoze it fast enough for my liking. The news is and has always been since the FLE was announced, that toontown was history at the MK and an M&M m&g was going to MSUSA. Music to my ears!!!!!!:sohappy:

 

[Horizons1]

are you serious? :lookaroun

Mickey and Minnie got along quite nicely at Walt Disney World for decades before Toontown Fair. This isn't armageddon. Get a grip! :lol:

Lol. No, I am not serious people. I do not have kids, I'm only 21. I was simply mocking some posts from some of the FL expansion threads. I assure you, I have a steadfast grip on reality. :ROFLOL:

 

[WDWExplorer]

don't be surprised if it's replaced by 'mickey mouse's clubhouse'.......

 

[drossjr]

I am curious. Where would you put those houses on DHS?

How about in the backlot tour with the rest of the rusting props??
