The Status of Muppet*Vision 3D

[Kman101]

Have you been to Disneyland?

I have. And I like the Roger Rabbit ride. I wish it AND Toontown existed in Hollywood Studios. Studios would benefit from a Fantasyland style dark ride (or three)

Toontown as a neighborhood in Hollywood Sudios would be great but where could it go?

If the studio aspect was still around it would have been on Sunset Blvd were RnRC is.. The plaza would have been Maroon Studios where you would have rode Baby Hermans buggy coaster and Toontown where Sunset theater is to ride the Rogers Toontown trolley simulator...This is why you see The red car trolley down Sunset blvd as it took place around that time the film was done..This is also why you see a billboard in the studios..

With the Digital puppetry with Henson it does show how much the technology has come ever since Waldo was created..

Didn’t our version of toontown exist in the MK but got torn down for New Fantasyland ???

Animation Courtyard, the old turn around behind it for the backstage tour, and the feature animation building.

That was Mickey’s Birthdayland - a VERY low budget version of a “Toontown”... actually it was supposed to be Duckburg. I have deep fond childhood memories of that place and the birthday cake show, but it was slapdash looking back on it.

Off topic: anyone have a pic of the pieces of cake they used sell at the exit to that show? I remember that being the best cake I ever ate...

If Toontown does ever come to DHS, I could see it taking over the Muppets area and Star Tours, or Animation Courtyard.

 

[DeletedAccount55555]

So exactly what many people on here have stated.

Yes. If they were any plans to tear it down in the near future, you'd expect Disney to issue something a lot more vague or even more likely, say nothing at all.

This doesn't strike me as something WDW PR would typically comment on publicly. Am I wrong?

 

[eddie104]

Not to be mean but why are we asking for a dated land to come to DHS ??? I get some are desperate for anything but be patient and stop looking at the cheapest and lowest thing.

The Sunset Market Ranch area is a placeholder (and was destined to receive the original version of Cartoon Spin)

Toontown as a concept is timeless. Some of the content being suggested however...

Yes to the Animation Courtyard. Beyond that should be exclusively Pixar. In a perfect world.

Yeah, but it was never on the same level as the Toontown that exists in Tokyo and Anaheim. I wish they had built the "real" version in Hollywood Studios instead. Oh well. It would fit so well.

It's not really dated. Roger I suppose could be considered "dated" but I don't. I doubt they build it now or ever but it was once considered for HS/MGM. I wish they had built it.

I really just wanna see all of Animation Courtyard go. It's such a poor area.

I think it is probably not high on their list as long as Launch Bay has to stay open. Perhaps a Mermaid replacement short term.

Or extend the back, bring it back to its original appearance. Make it a much bigger one mans dream. Have progress city in there his plane parked out front. And make a wing for coming attractions such as the ge mock-up and tron.

I used to really love M3D. I've seen it soooooo maaaaany times now; I wish they would rework the whole area with a new Muppet show, etc.

Bring back the show that replaced it..Here come The Muppets...

 

[marni1971]

Not like we’ve been waiting six years for that...

Very good. Also would facilitate removal of current OMD and Mermaid buildings. Which in turn could allow them to expand TSL and perhaps add something permanent to Pixar Place. That is a lot of land.

Interesting.
