I mean, if he’s speculating that the ideas were not super compelling, and even from the beginning saying that both of the ideas were very blue sky, I mean, kinda putting two and two together.

I was joking that the idea was something ridiculous.
Is it really a surprise that they will ONCE AGAIN leave AC as it is while replacing something else at DHS?
AC will outlive us all.

Yeah, I can kinda gather that with the way Len was wording it lol.
No, not really. It’s probably a while away before it’s replaced. Even then I say Indy stunt show and star tours probably go before ac.

They could even just have them on a...Dare I say it....TV screen where they can have a multitude of different snarky remarks as the stretch is returning to the station and somehow be able to have ones during delays on the brake trim.

Toy Story Mid Mania - It’s, You Know, Mid
Spinnerland
Cia! Stand - Cousin to Aloha Isle, but dedicated to Beverly Coke creations
The Line Simulator - simulates Disney’s longest lines, with an impressive runtime of three hours
The Donald Duck Smokes Shop, inspired by the vintage Happy Birthday Donald episode and specializing in kid’s cigars
The “Up” Hot Air Ballon simulator. Modeled in the style of Smugglers Run, this was going to be Disney’s most technologically advanced and breathtaking ride ever, but to maintain authenticity to the movie, the pilot could only be a small child, a visibly cranky senior citizen, or a dog. All other roles would become completely unexciting if your pilot, who would likely be a labradoodle, couldn’t navigate the complicated controls.

Were we really expecting a major land announcement for Animation Courtyard not being done at a D23 event?

They announced the Indy/Encanto area during Destination D last time.....It could be possible they can talk about the second dead zone with the Animation area..
There were enough credible insiders saying that Monsters coaster was being considered for AC.

Pretty sure he meant one major project for DHS at a time.

I mean the recent AC chatter.
I think it was Muppets Courtyard from the beginning for Monsters, but they weren't 100% sure yet.

- In the Parks
- No
If that's the case, the fact that they became 100% sure after seeing the reactions makes this even worse.

I think they wanted to save AC for a bigger project down the road.

I think the answer lies more in “Muppets would be substantially cheaper to develop for this project.”
No demo or retrofitting buildings for the coaster. Turning existing restaurant space into Harryhausens. Etc.

Well, and it’s a good use for an otherwise dead area of the park.
I’m just skeptical that DHS will get another land any time soon. It’s remarkable that MK will get a twofer.

They really don’t. That’s just not how things work. Disney typically announces projects shortly after they have been approved, early in the design process.

Oh I'm sure they have concepts of what will go there, they just don't know what property they want yet.
