DHS Disney Animation-Inspired Experience Coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios

[James Alucobond]

Would love if they made this whole area TWDS themed, and extended the path to a third portal to SWGE and another entrance to TSL. The current walk through TSL is miserable, another outlet could help flow. View attachment 892717View attachment 892717

Big agree. I honestly think this would also make TSL itself feel a bit better by allowing for circumnavigation of current Pixar Place.

The weird thing is I honestly do think those of us on this board actually put more thought into this than most people whose jobs are to actually make these decisions (especially the higher ranking ones.) which is awesome and sad at the same time.

Here's the thing, there's thousands of us. Its a lot easier to dream up scenarios without knowing the logistics/having a budget/having to explain WHY that budget is necessary to a higher up.

It is also hard when the higher ups don't have an understanding of what their product is or a passion for it.

Do we have an idea when this will open?

It’s easy to armchair imagineer.

Do we have an idea when this will open?

Probably by next summer at the latest, since they’re bringing back Cool Kid Summer.

Yes, because you aren't being restrained by being forced to box your creativity to suit a marketing agenda decreed by MBA's who don't have any appreciation for creative thought like WDI currently is.

Do we have an idea when this will open?

We should, because we on this board actually put more thought into this than most people whose jobs are to actually make these decisions (especially the higher ranking ones.) which is awesome and sad at the same time.

I think because we are the ones in it more often and see how it actually works. They can design some great spaces, but then you add 20,000 people to it how does it feel and operate?

Doesn't seem like all that much progress has been made.

Should be the slogan for today's WDC.

Put Bluey in Tree of Life Theater celebrating nature and having a fun day with animals and it’d be eons better than the current resident

It seems like the obvious choice for management. Has to be the odds-on favorite at this point.

So no Bluey in Studios? I'm very surprised. I was thinking dining experience at Hollywood and Vine, and Disney Jr replacement in the courtyard. The DAK announcment does not eliminate those options, but perhaps less likely now.

Those two options also make a lot more sense thematically than plopping it in DAK. But DAK needed something, ANYTHING, to get people through the turnstiles next year, which is going to be a rough time to be in that park.
