The thing that gets me on this though is that Monsters is relatively small in footprint, and the space behind AC is pretty large. If they put Monsters on AC, won't that preclude them from being able to add a bigger land somewhere later?

There’s an existing path between Launch Bay and Disney Jr. that they could always connect both to the RRC courtyard and the intersection across from the B&B entrance that would allow access to an additional pad.

We’re not talking about a traditional movie. There’s more to the experience than just what is on the screen.

Sure, but the effects aren't so spectacular and difficult to replicate. It's not like It's Tough to be a Bug where you need special seats and more complex physical environment and characters.

It is strange to me that Disney updates things to destroy them. MV just got new seats, new effects on the walls…what’s the point if you know what’s coming?

That's probably because it's a different budget and decision-making workflow. Simple maintenance is unlikely something WDI or Sr. Leadership gets involved with -- that's just park operations

Now, I love the Muppets. It's a great attraction, and I hate to see it go. But I am worndering - what are the expansion options left for DHS? We know Animation to Sunset is one. Muppets courtyard is (sadly) another. Echo lake? Where else can DHS expand into without closing other attractions?

They quite literally boxed themselves in with this waste of space

So, caveat being I don't know what all the backstage stuff is, so some may not be doable. BUT, if you go Animation, back through Launch Bay and into the parking lot behind there, that would be pretty much the same area as Muppets. That leaves another almost 14 acres behind RnRC/west of the Monsters area all the way to TSL that could also be expanded (Again, some of that stuff could be things that couldn't be moved, so maybe not all of that can go).

People are going to be upset about Muppets no matter what. But I think you are seeing a much larger outcry because there is so much dead space on the other side of the park, where it feels like Monsters would fit better anyways. If the plan is a large Zootopia area back that way, I think a lot more people would be accepting of losing Muppets if that was done first.

Even the misfits that are running things at Disney aren't that dumb. I agree that being up front with your plans is the right way. But if they said, muppets, rivers of America and Tom Sawyer Island were being deep sixed. I can almost guarantee there would be a very bad reaction during the presentation and they knew it. They wanted the, look at all the amazing stuff Disney is doing! headlines.

Pretty amusing that anyone thinks an arena full of hardcore fans is the right venue for nuance and rational thinking.

I would believe Animation Courtyard possible if not for current methodology and the concept art. That area of Monstropolis in co cept seems like something they would be fine changing tje remaining city streets to with paint and minor touches.
Then Sci fi diner sadly, can get a monstropolis retheme.

I really can’t see them replacing two TSRs with MI restaurants nor can I see them removing one. So, I’d expect Melrose’s to become the MI TSR since they have no problem selling out Sci Fi.
