Ok, bit of a wild card here that makes ZERO sense: merge the muppetvision and HOP ideas. Muppetvision 3D In the Hall Of Presidents.

Setting aside all of reality, set aside the ruining things and terrible decisions for a moment: Completely removed from all context, the Muppets in a building clearly not made for the Muppets, trying to make a show around an existing show that keeps going off an inappropriate moments, actually sounds like a really funny idea.

But this is reality and we're in the midst of terrible decisions, so it would be awful.

The fact that they are spacing it out does NOT make them look good.
They could truly not know though as the report states.
I gotta be honest I'm not even mad if Muppets and Star Tours is replaced, but I'm mad if its replaced before the Animation Courtyard/Rockin, an area none of us care about.
I think it's pretty unlikely Rock is involved if it goes in Animation Courtyard. Rock is a sit down launched coaster, this is a suspended coaster.

I wonder what happens to grand avenue if they decide against muppets as the spot. Do they just leave it as is? Or hope people don’t care as much in a few years?

If I was a betting man I'd say
2027 - Tropical Americas
2028 - Monsters and Cars
2029 - Villains

I kept seeing on twitter Disney is saying that everything announced will be open within 5 years. As long as that's truly what happens, it makes sense.
That seems reasonable.
That really leave 2026 as the wildcard year. While no major projects can be done by then, I think updates to Carousel of Progress and Journey to Imagination would fill in nicely for 2026.

If I’m being honest, if there is a way to update grand avenue while keeping
MV3D, I’d be down. I think it’s kinda bland sans muppets.
I think the two options here are:
1.) Leave muppets as is
1A.) Move into animation courtyard and bulldoze Disney Jr, Launch Bay, animation building and put monsters there. Leave Rock intact.
2.) Bulldoze the entire area (plus grand avenue) and let Monsters move in.

I agree but I could see Disney removing the track (which is already in tough shape) but re-using the building for something else. I say this because the Monsters land looks quite big and if they can reuse any buildings for any purpose (ie the cars show which will probably end and the brown derby backside) I think they could and would want too.

I do think Montropolis blends better with the Grand Avenue / Commissary area but think that why touch that area when its find and animation courtyard sucks.

I agree it blends betters. In my mind, all they need to do is somehow move the muppets and they’re golden.

I agree. I also could see in 2026 them having some shorter term things that need to be done from adding drones to shows, nighttime show for AK, repaint the castle, the Mando update for smugglers, etc.

My hope tho is they add Coco or new Figment for EPCOT in 26'. I'd also take a Stich replacement for Tomorrowland.
