DHS MuppetVision 3-D's Future: Potential Disney Park Venues and Vision Pro Immersive Experience

[celluloid]

The Muppets Extended Queue was used up until 2012 for Holidays and Peak attendance situations. A lot of the detail including the Stroller Parking area/wall was decimated when the Streets of America were ripped out.

I wonder if they'll repurpose some of the Grand Arts building space and the extended queue to add a Monsters Inc M&G? Or if they'll actually use the extended queue for it's intended purpose? In the modern days of Lightning Lanes, I assume extended queues and massive switchbacks aren't as valued.

I can't speak to the tech but it looked pretty impressive to me. The front screen is very big (don't be fooled by the "curtains" around the orchestra pit in the opening and closing scenes of Philarmagic). The rest of the show with Donald chasing the sorcerer's hat took up a huge front screen and the sides were extended to the left and right walls.

Interesting how the adapted it for DCA, but I can’t imagine it topping the massive wide screen that’s revealed in the MK version. And it’s looked better than ever since they went digital!

Yep! It’s looked great since the digital projectors were added during the Coco update. At least the times I’ve seen it

There's this that the company I work for is hosting: https://agloriousfinale.com/

Not sure how many tickets are left (site currently says 4 for the panels and 1 for the full access ticket but they've been adding more sometimes); we had to move it to a large venue because it was too many people to fit at the studio. I've designed some stuff for this like a button-up shirt, which will be exciting to see, but even more exciting is that Imagineers who worked on MV3D will be there to do interview panels and show off concept art. People from TJHC were invited too but I don't know who from there will be there. There's supposedly one invited guest that is so big that it'd be amazing if they showed up, my guess is Steve Whitmire, but no word on who it is and if they're coming. I'm just a graphics guy, I'm not involved with the planning lol. It's $75 to come and see all the interview panels, and then there's other ticket options if you'd rather stream it at home for $15 or if you want to do autographs and such. All the proceeds from the event are used to get all the special guests here and accommodate them, and any extra is given to Give Kids the World.

Oh wow, I'll be there!

Also, it has a better setup than Philarmagic in MK. It already has the wall projections as well.

Thats definitely not true. It’s far better at mk

And don't forget, those balconies MAY still contain the animatronics...

They say if you watch Philharmagic at 12am on a blue moon you can quietly hear "Think we've got time for a bathroom break?" "We can't you old fool! We're bolted to the chairs!" behind the curtain and faintly smell banana cream pie

Thanks for sharing the extended queue photos @Cmdr_Crimson ! Here are some I took when I was there in January. The CMs were super nice and let me climb over the chains blocking off the extended queue and let me wander around there.

The video isn’t even fitted to the screen at DCA… they play a wide screen video on a full screen

That's odd

It's sad they chose to close this in June instead of July; no celebrating Independence Day with the glorious Salute to All Nations but Mostly America now.

Funny that you mention that. At the end of Philarmagic where Donald's torso and feet extend out of the back wall, I could have sworn I saw it wedged inside or attached to a cannon. Hmm.

I looked into this, and I found the following picture that shows pretty clearly that the cannon is, unfortunately, gone.

On the bright side, it probably wouldn't be hard to redo the cannon if they needed to. They're gonna have a spare from Florida now, anyways.

Wait, so that's not the real Donald being launched into the wall every show? Vacation ruined.
