DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

[Streetway]

I’ll lose living in the land for muppets if that’s what it takes.

Honestly, losing LWTL for muppetvision and An actually good figment would be a good trade off for me.

Yep. If I'm not mistaken, "Living with the Land" was hinted at years ago, possibly even on this forum. In the cards again? Sure, why not.

The rubric is simple: If it's not tied to an IP it's on the chopping block or prime for an overhaul sans a few grandfathered attractions. (And not even some of those are exempt)

It's just one such possibility for that IP. Sadly.

I freaking love living with the land. That would definitely be worse to me than losing muppets. Because muppets could go somewhere else like hop. The land will just be gone.

Zootopia wouldn't be an awful kick for LWTL. It'd probably be narration change and AAs.

So the ride wouldn't be completely gone? Just an overhaul?

Zootopia will likely replace Echo Lake/Indy before being placed in Epcot. Hopefully the outpouring of love for muppets will encourage future investment into the IP.

Would it not be redundant with the assumed biomes concept for Tree?

If it’s truly AC, that’s incredible news! We may even get a bigger land out of it AND keep the muppets.

Wonder if this was always the plan or they saw the backlash (I’m leaning toward this was always the plan).

 

[James Alucobond]

Does this preclude them from a bigger expansion down the road? Are they going to connect this to the rnr area?

Assuming it goes in Animation, there is no reason that they can't still go straight back along Highland Avenue at Sunset Ranch Market with a cross connection to both Rock 'n' Rollercoaster and Monsters, Inc. It might not be ideal, but they're not boxed in unless the layout is weird as heck.

IF Courtyard holds true for Monsters, I heard a show is in the cards!

The best timeline. I can’t believe bullying works! You think they’d try muppets again after this fiasco?

Just make believe…

I was under the assumption that the budget wasn't big enough for that.

A Monsters Inc "show".

Between the new art being AC and the lack of mermaid show news, I'm betting this was the plan and there was just confusion

 

[James Alucobond]

They asked if this would box them out of further expansion in the future. It's not budgeted now, but unless they do something exceedingly weird, they should still be able to access other potential expansion pads down the road even if pathing is not ideal. That was my only point.

Ok that is blasphemy! Take it back!!

Seriously though losing living with the land would cause even more backlash IMO

I don't think some posters realize that

I’m calling it, they announce LWTL retheme the same year as dreamfinder coming back

I’m glad. Long live muppetvision 3D!
