DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

[Streetway]

The one thought is: if this was always the plan, WHY ON EARTH did they not announce it earlier?

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).

Let's go in between. The vagueness was testing to see if there's still a market for Muppets.

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

Yea. It's still a thirty year old 3D film.

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

Problem is, when people here say "Zootopia," I think they mean something like the land in Shanghai.

I am no insider. But the fact this whole time we had multiple insider leads going both ways said it was not decided. It seems clear they wanted to see reaction OR one side leaked to play dirty

Anyone here hoping Voyage of the little mermaid puts Frozen Sing Along out to pasture?

Hopefully this means the muppets will have a home set up for them when MV3D’s time comes.

I’m nervous Marni or Steve is gonna come
In and shoot all our happiness down

If you ever went to a theme park owned and operated by the Busch Entertainment Corporation (the theme park subsidiary owned by Anheuser-Busch before the hostile takeover) you'll know what it's supposed to be like. Just needed to make more money than it lost and the family kept it humming pretty well.

They didn’t even have to make more than they lost. Busch Entertainment was considered more like marketing.

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.

Echo Lake is right up there with Tomorrowland for shabbiest existing land.

This might have been one time where they said, “Let the people break the stalemate.” If people just shrugged, said Muppets ran their course, focused more on what was coming and not what was being lost, it very well could be MC not AC.

I still don’t want to celebrate, until we hear something more official, but with so much announced Disney probably wants the fan chatter be about what is coming. That didn’t seem likely if they killed both ROA and Muppets. And they aren’t going to reverse ROA.

Echo lake is HOT . And you can quote me on it.

Hopefully monsters does go in Animation Courtyard, but I’m not going to let that tweet get my hopes up. Anything can happen. Time will soon tell.

I think it has very little to do with the fan reaction and a lot more to do with the fact that Disney is placing much higher importance on whether a new development at the park increases capacity.

Personally I'm still stuck in the middle. I know Marni has weighed in on this and I think he said Muppets? And Marni has a rock solid track record. Steve has also hinted at Muppets prior. My sources are just a peanut gallery.

I don't think we're out of the woods. I'm still awaiting final word from WDW themselves by end of this month.

Or sooner. I get the impression they're in damage control mode.

Take a shot every time they say “unscrupulous sources”
