DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios
- Thread starter wdwmagic
- Start date
Eh, personally I think the new one isn't unique or distinctly MuppetVision enough to be archived. Now, if they still had the original sign, that would have had a stronger case for the archive-

Could still get reused, either here or over at RnRC. Taking it down just makes it easier to work on.

I was going to say just the opposite! lol I’m happy to do the Rise elements every time but Guardians feels like it’s just wasting my time

The cool part about the pre show on rise is that it includes AAs. The sequence where you board the transport and exit onto the star destroyer is the best part of the whole thing IMO.

The pre-show of rise made me say “wow” out loud. The attraction itself did not (not saying it’s bad….. just saying it didn’t have the same wow factor as the pre show itself).
I kind of wish the entire experience was the ride… meaning you ride through the pre-show elements.

My perspective is a bit different. If you can identify quite a few of the set dressings in the queue, its hard to engage suspension of belief . Quite a bit of Rotr's props are just simple military surplus from the past 4 decades.

The "preshow" at Rise feels like an integral part of the attraction to me.
DHS service road:
Do we think they will re-route that DHS service road around the building and therefore have the transition be "flat" from the former Muppets land over to Factory/ rollercoaster? Or will they have a slight upward pedestrian ramp that goes over the road?

I absolutely agree with trains - Rise would be much better if you boarded the ride vehicles immediately after the first preshow.

That’s probably true, but I can understand why for practical reasons they opted for the arrangement they now have, and I think they integrate it effectively into the story of the attraction.

Rise is flawless in my book when all the effects are working.

Eh….. with all effects working it’s good. But it’s still a very sterile plastic looking environment. Gives a video game vibe - feels like im in an Xbox.
I was very disappointed with the lack of physical effects (fire, fog, etc.) - I’m a sucker for 90’s theme park creations with fire and lasers like mummy, Indy, and even great movie ride!

It’s an excellent ride. I’m not even a Star Wars fan and I would rank it among the best.

The only way it could be better is if it featured characters and elements Star Wars fans actually care about.

I hope it’s the same writers as zootopia! *ducks for cover*
