What are the odds Muppets survives til June, if it really is where Monsters is going? I have friends going who are Muppet fans and never saw MV3D in person.
The way @ToTBellHop worded it makes me think it was originally for muppets. Then before D23 maybe they realized what that might do and they panicked?If it was definitely meant for muppets I don’t think they would have shown the artwork for AC
One can but hope....on this and RoA!! MarieThe way @ToTBellHop worded it makes me think it was originally for muppets. Then before D23 maybe they realized what that might do and they panicked?
What's interesting is that the Disney Parks Blog about the Door Coaster doesn't mention a construction timeline, although it was announced at D23 to start next year. All the other projects beginning construction next year has the construction timeline in the parks blog posts
Here is the announced timeline for WDW attractions to be completed:
2025 Sum – MK night time parade, Starlight2025 ???? – MK – Pirate’s Lounge2025 ???? EP – Test Track refresh reopens2025 ???? EP – SSE Lounge2025 Wint DAK – Zootopia in Tree of Life, “Better Zoogether”2026 ???? DHS – New story to Smugglers Run feat. Mando and Grogu2027 ???? – MK Cars mini land, 2 rides, / Start: early 2025 /2027 ???? DAK – Tropical Americas: Indy, Encanto, Carousel Start 2024
So, there are only three WDW new attractions that don't have a date. One of them is "underway" and the other two start next year.
???? ???? – MK Villains Land / Start Aug 2024 (“underway”) /???? ???? – MK DVC Lounge (former shooting range) / Start 2025 /???? ???? DHS – Monstropolis – hanging coaster / Start 2025 /
Unless Monstropolis take 4 years to build, and Villains, 5 years; everything mentioned above will be finished well before the five year mark of 2029.
When was cars announced to open in 2027?Here's the WDW breakdown of D23 announcements...
Is it off the table permanently? Or is it still possible further down the line? It really is muppetvision or bust, which is not the best position. Disney really is in between a rock and a hard place right now.AFAIK Muppets moving to HoP in 2025 is off the table which complicates this further. 46 should have really considered staying in the race and giving us the Hall of Muppets.
nothing is permanent. Disney could rebuild Horizons one day and it wouldn’t be the biggest shock in the world hahaIs it off the table permanently? Or is it still possible further down the line?
Nothing is permanent but 47 will be added to HoP whomever that is. Disney isn’t rocking the boat on this issue this fall. It’s a lose-lose situation.Is it off the table permanently?

honestly replacing it might not be worth it at all for the potential trouble. Better the devil you know than the one you don’t. I do worry for the future of the muppets at wdw though.Nothing is permanent but 47 will be added to HoP whomever that is. Disney isn’t rocking the boat on this issue this fall.

I combed thru all the announcements and thought I was taking careful notes. But, since you bring it up... I can't find where I got the 2027 completion date for the Cars mini-land.When was cars announced to open in 2027?
I was wondering if I missed something - I watched the live stream but it cut out a few times.I combed thru all the announcements and thought I was taking careful notes. But, since you bring it up... I can't find where I got the 2027 completion date for the Cars mini-land.
I guess I'll update my list.
I could certainly have conflated TAm with Cars and took the TAm year of completion and associated it with Cars.I was wondering if I missed something - I watched the live stream but it cut out a few times.
I was guessing after Tropical Americas 2027
Door Coaster 2028
Cars 2029
Buckle in everyone, it’s gonna be a LOOOONNNGG rideI distinctly remember they put that construction on Monsters would start in 2025 on the parks blog. It looks like it was removed. interesting.

That's odd. I had thought it didn't mention a construction date. I admit, it was the middle of the night in UK during the panel, so my tired eyes might have glazed over thatIt still says "Work on the project is slated to begin next year, so get ready to ROAR with laughter!"
