The original Muppet Courtyard art seemed to show the ride replacing MV3D while the new art pushes the ride back and shuffles other elements around.
Someone more creative then I should come up with something new for their word bubbles.
The space is already setup for a theater show, 3D in fact. I think it would take more to rip out all that equipment and replace it with a stage show. The AAs and of course an actor portraying a character (Sweetums in Muppets) would be removed. But the 3D show, new effects (currently used for multiple Waldos), and new seats would remain.
Disney loves synergy.
For sure.
Respectfully, it feels like this has been said constantly for the past 3-4 years now and (besides Tron) there's still nothing happening in the areas that actually feel dull.
I agree with you on the point that aspects of things should be updated, while keeping the show intact.
It will probably be some IP that doesn't fit the theme of Tomorrowland. As long as it sells LLs that's all that matters
I said you could doubt it, so, I don't know why you're so worked up.
That is the same experience I had last summer. Granted I can't go in off times but I've never had a show where people weren't laughing and having fun. Sure the theater isn't packed all the time, it's a near 600 people theater, but I've never been in a show that was less than 40/45+% full. That's still over 200+ people a show and that's not bad in my opinion. Especially since it's not something they have to close because they are out of room.
The only big glaring issue from a dated standpoint, is the very 90s cg. Waldo especially. And that's easily fixable.
Do you think that's the actual attraction or Disneys tendencies to let things rot? Personally I think they do the very minimum. There was a stretch in muppet vision where effects were broken for years and years. The burnout that Waldo does when he turns into a car as an example. When the quality keeps dropping, yea more people are going to lose interest.
To add to this, it also doesn’t help that whenever they do announce things that are set to destroy something beloved, they hold the negative information until later, typically a Friday right before the stock market closes, because god forbid their stock price take a dive. It’s all about money to these corporate stooges.
Yeah, Disney choosing to leave the shops back there shuttered post-COVID was a real indicator that they didn’t care about Grand Ave.
I'm not worked up. Yes people shouldn't say things that aren't true, but opinions are opinions. How do you know it's not vapor engineering? What kind of show is it? What's it about? Is it a movie show, live action? They have nothing. Just because they said it, doesn't make it true either. My point was if people think it's bogus, they have every right to. It's Disneys job to prove us wrong. And I am always happy to eat crow. I want Disney to prove me wrong.
Disney says there will be a new show. That's all they need to say to prove there will be one. What are you even talking about lol?
For Star Tours, all you need to do is clad the back of the outdoor props.
Phase 2 projects are always never officially dubbed “phase 2.” They’re “things we’ll build after this thing,” like Villains Land, or vague mentions of things that might happen in the future, like the Muppets replacement. Saying Phase 2 never gets built is essentially another way of saying that, unless Disney has discussed something a great deal, released multiple pieces of concept art, and is within a year of construction, it’s probably not getting built.
