I dont see why we can't have all the fun things.

Muppets, Star Wars, Pixar stuff... k, maybe I'm a little greedy. But still.

The difference is that Muppet Vision never fit into DCA.
Plus, this.

Will make (or has made) a great coffee table book

The PB posted a decent after dark photo of Mysterious Island at Tokyo DisneySea:

Is this the best themed land in that park or to a greater extent the best themed land WDI has ever done?

haha
Fun Fact: Pete Docter is a HUGE Muppets fan. Could this be his Cars Land like vanity project?

 

[invader]

If they have no intention to give the Muppets a proper land then I would be all for giving up that area for Star Wars.

Now I have to throw out that carton of Soylent Green sorbet I bought at Wal-Mart today.

I'm amazed they'd try to sell that stuff. Sorbet seems too classy for the average Wal-Mart customer.

True, but is Muppet land currently in the blue sky idea? @WDW1974 @Lee @marni1971

I really don't like the idea of settling for (another) coffeetable book...

Is there any more Muppet-land concept art floating around? I can't seem to find any ?

Wouldn't Echo Lake be big enough for Star Wars Land???

NOT MUPPET VISION, P-P-PLEASE!!! (Like Roger Rabbit)

I tend to agree. And the reasoning for not using the IJ space for Star Wars seems specious -- because it's used for other things? So? They can't do cheerleading competitions at the Premiere Theater or Theater of the Stars? Or build a new theater somewhere on WDW property?

Having just seen it in person last week...yes. It really is.

If this is true, this is the only possible Potter-swatter (IMO). I'm really excited to see if this actually comes to fruition.

Can we say by this point Disney missed the chance to do a Potter Swatter? Potter won.

I guess they could have a Potter Phase 2 swatter... Maybe? But by 2018, HP2 will have already been 4 years old... Maybe a new Jurassic Park swatter? New Seuss Landing Swatter? Whatever reaplaces Toon Lagoon Swatter? or Kid Zone replacement Swatter?

Anyway, I think we can put to rest the term "Potter Swatter."

That's real MAGIC

Nope.

 

[ThemeParks4Life]

Nope.

So is what Niles said one of the routes they could go?

 

[Lee]

IMHO...yes to both.

I don't see them expanding Star Wars into the Muppet area.
They have better options, long-time expansion pads.
If they actually do a Star Wars expansion at DHS.

Just got back from Man of Steel, and I enjoyed it. The local cinema was not able to fill both theaters. I don't know if that is because people did not want to go to Walmart on a Saturday morning or because they're not in that much of a rush to see the film. The 3D was pretty much pointless. One issue I have with these sorts of action films is they prove the saying "One death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic." We basically watch a major city get destroyed, something that cannot happen without the deaths of many thousands, if not millions, of people, but everything is just fine afterwards.

I'm not up on every different website out there, but how reliable is this one? Are they just throwing something out there which is just a bunch of rumors or are they a reputable source with real inside info?
