DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

(Before anyone says anything, I know its unofficial. Just found it cool)

Kinda doubt there will be inversions and 90 degree drops.

From the MV3D future thread, it looks like nearly everything in the theater is operating right now except the curtains. It's great to see MV3D will be going out in good shape:

Still out as of yesterday, May 30.

Fog effects however, including the blast of fog from the left of the movie screen, is working great.
All animatronics are also working 100%…including the subtle effects ( arrows in the walls, cannon fire, etc.)
Even Sweetums’ performance is top notch and full of energy!

Saw two showings today to say ‘goodbye’.
Crowd was lively and was loving every minute of it.
This Show still packs a fun punch with Guests.

It truly is a tragedy this is being removed.
All of those carefully sculpted statues, theatre decor, and other wonderful details will be lost.
Not to mention the perfect blend of combined elements that makes this Show so unique.

I truly hope some of those figures over the exit doors and the beautiful sculpture that hangs above the stage will be salvaged.
Those things are truly works of fine art.

Said my goodbyes last night….

Still cannot believe this is all about to be destroyed and wiped clean from existence.
A real mistake.

Yes.
I was very pleased to see this, as unlike other Attractions this one is not being left to fall apart before closing.

This one will die proud with its head held high….and fully operational with the exception of the curtain.

That’s you? Cool Roger Rabbit shirt!

I might go up with my family on Saturday with a two day ticket and use the second day when Test Track opens. Maybe.

Don't mind me, just reheating some leftovers from my meal in California.

Here's hoping a couple fun easter eggs from MIM&STTR find their way to Florida

More likely, we get those figurines from the ride, and that's that. Willing to bet the Roz animatronic finishes it off.

What would be the point to salvage anything from that ride ?

Disney hasn’t done something like that in several decades why would they start now ?

Is Sweetums an equity performer? If not, it probably wouldn't factor into the decision. Surely, the CM's sole job isn't to just be Sweetums all day.

Not equity but a “puppeteer” which is a bit higher pay than other friends.

obviously you need several performers each day who’s sole job is indeed friends with sweetums.

Static figures are perfect for flying past on a coaster versus the slow moving ride they're installed on now. And they can go "Look, we brought the Drew Carey CDA agent back as an homage to Sounds Dangerous"

Salvaging decades old figures for a brand new attraction is extremely lame in my opinion.

Disney doesn’t really do that anymore so I’m not expecting to see them here.

That one they'll actually redress as Drew Carey and hide him in the Mickey Shorts Theatre.

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.
The love of reusing the same Toy Story character sculpture molds across various Toy Story projects.

And even beyond the ride - could use some elements of the secondary characters to populate the land (in windows, on fire escapes, etc) just to make the area look more lived in

We were excited to get those old AAs on Gran Fiesta.

If existing figures do the job, why waste money on new ones? The same budget could give us two new AAs and a ton of screens or 12 used (but refurbished) figures and fewer screens.

I know my preference.

Just bring the dark ride here and put it in Monstropolis.

If they were going to port any ride I would prefer the Tokyo Disney Ride and Seek one, but adding an actual second ride to Monstropolis would be a good and plus vs just one ride and a show

 

[ChewbaccaYourMum]

I think to start, a fun and thrilling coaster, stage show, restaurant/s is good. They could always add a dark ride later on using more of that parking lot space, if the land deems good for sales and merch.

Also, let's not forget, Star Tours might not last forever and that could always be an expansion of Monstropolis in the future. Or does everyone think something different should eventually go there? Also I would like to add to that I love Star Tours and would be sad to see it go, but with Galaxy's Edge right there, it seems inevitable.

not necessarily advocating for it but retheming Star Tours to Mosters Inc could work as just randomize which doors you go through to different locations (could even have a punch of different pixar locations or something - like go through Miguel's closet door or things like that as some options)
