Alicia from parkstop was saying similar things on her forum this morning too. Not declaring victory but there is hope
What Alicia is saying is currently the situation to my knowledge. Almost everyone heard something that was taken as "Muppets is going" which has now settled down to "Muppets was Plan A, it is now Plan B".

Weirdly odd I'm being deemed a "plugged-in insider" on that forum... Oh well. What makes me plugged-in? I'm just a girl!

I mean (as unlikely as it may seem) it’s possible that it always was the plan.

Hopefully they hold true on it. Would love a happy ending to this story. Funny because isn’t the letter writing part also what happened with the whole #savethejamboree situation that played a part in it? I guess if there’s one thing you can’t touch at wdw, it’s funny singing creatures.

And how do you know?
Recent developments.

I'm still firm on Muppets will be leaving eventually (death waits for nobody after all), but as it stands, I have good reason and have it on good word to believe Monsters Inc will be in Animation Courtyard and will co-exist with Mermaid.

As a note: some people are remaining dead set it is still Muppets Courtyard. But I've collaborated information with others and currently Animation Courtyard is the most prevalent.

Guess we'll find out.
That was the reported plan. I'm happy Tower has hung around at least.
Oh, yes...I should have remembered...thank god Spirit told us what the twits at Disney were planning. Especially now that we've seen Mission Breakout at Disneyland. Good god, what an eyesore...and what a narrative mess. Thank god the original Tower still exists in WDW...even though it's been poorly maintained and "improved" (i.e the original black screen removed and a blue computer screen installed into a 1950's television set...brilliant move, "Imagineers"...)

This site seems to conflate “surprises” and seemingly poor communication into a belief that things change in the final seconds before an exec walks into the D23 stage, or a shovel strikes the dirt at a build site.

This actually does happen, though. We know they've cancelled and changed announcements nearly last minute for D23 before.

Plus, it' s not that unusual for large corporations. I work with some even bigger than Disney, and you'd be surprised how often major plans are still in flux and subject to change or outright cancellation very late in the process.

I still worry that we’re celebrating a little too prematurely. This could just be a reshuffling, or the beginnings of the unannounced “phase two.” Until we hear official word from Disney, I still think MuppetVision is in Jeopardy.
See, to me, the most important thing is them vacating and tearing down the animation office building. If they do that, it’s a commitment to building something there in the near future. I’m less concerned if it’s Monsters now or Zootopia later or whatever but it needs to be something to an actually expand the park and increase the offerings.

So I take this a good sign regardless of Monsters.

Unless they didn't actually know where they were going to put this when it was announced, I have a bad feeling it's going to replace something that will cause a bad reaction. Otherwise if it was just going in the AC, they probably would have announced it already. They avoided saying where Cars would be going during the stage presentation specifically because they knew they would be booed off the stage.

Narrative mess? I dunno, I think "wave your hands because mine don't work" is genius! /Sarcasm

I can't imagine HS without the ToT. Even if Disney does divorce itself from TTZ branding, using the Paris story would be perfect.

Dude, I cried through the last episode of BATBBH. Great show.
I miss Bear as a show and at DHS so much. I swear I remember meeting him when I was a weeee little moth. Bears in general are just nice animals.
