New attraction for DHS being announced May 14?

[nanna]

Hi,

i just saw on Studio Central that there is a post that the new ride for soundstange 1 next to TSM is to be announced tomorrow (May 14).

Anyone have any info to support this?

Wow! He is definitely in the loop so this sounds genuine! Cool, and thanks for the very good update!

I hope someone has some salt. I guess we will know tomorrow.

Yes, I just read the entry on the web site and he does not sound 100% confident it will happen but I still will be checking in to see on Wednesday.

Why would they make an announcement like that tomorrow?
Is there a media event I don't know about?

I personally wouldn't expect any sort of announcement about Stage 1 until at least TSM's big day.

According to Matt there is a TSM press event on Wednesday.

Maybe the press event will be TSM's big kick-off & they will follow it up with this rumored announcement about soundstage 1. :shrug: :shrug:

oh wow. lets hope so.


its about time we hear something about this "family coaster"

while you're at it disney, could you acknowledge the new DVC contemporary resort and announce the giant refurb/rehaul for Space Mountain, Imagination, and Star Tours??

Haven't they typically announced non-E-tickets through press releases not press events? If that's the case, I'm not sure that would change.

With that said, I do expect to hear the next attraction soon. However, I expect 2009 and 2010 to be relatively quiet in terms of new attractions at WDW, with the next new e-ticket coming in 2011-2012.

Where is sound stage 1? Is that at the end near Voyage of the Little Mermaid or at the opposite end?

At the other end of the street.

I was under the impression that the next announcement for the Studio would be the new Star Tours adventure.

I doubt it will be anything more than hype for the [previously announced] new American Idol show and relocation of NoJ to DHS. Maybe some back-patting for BPB.

Do you know what is going in there?

Don't have to tell us what it is, just wondering if the news is 'around'.

This sounds interesting given the source....but I won't hold my breath.

I have a very good idea what it is. Not the details...just ballpark like many others.

well, it will be a family coaster. so, not another rockn roller coaster. something the whole family can get on and have fun on.

Here is where the rumors come in:

it will be a copy of crush's coaster.

it will have a pixar theme. the two most popular ideas circulating are monsters inc and finding nemo.

I am assuming that they will announce a monsters inc family coaster that will go into studio 1. I think the monsters inc rumor has has alot more momentum lately, so thats why I am leaning towards that. Also, Disney would have to be fools to put ANOTHER finding nemo attraction in the parks.

It's probably regarding the Narnia Prince Caspian conversion. They are unvealing Prince Caspian tomorrow (5/14) in front of the "soon to open" attraction.
