So at this point, probably safe to say Liver Lips/Romeo is retired permanently as a costumed meet and greet character?

What confuses me is, what good reason is there to go with removing Muppets over the empty, abandoned old animation studio? There's WAY more space over from Launch Bay back to have the coaster, a restaurant, shops, and even some smaller attractions. Muppets has way less space to work with, and...

If they want it to be different from California's, they could make it a more bear-themed restaurant than BBQ. Fish, fruit, honey, that sort of stuff. Salmonburgers? Probably basic burgers and chicken too. I think it would be awesome if they brought back the Mile Long Bar, but as an actual bar-...

You see though, that’s actually well thought out, which is against current MO! Why have fitting attractions with less profitable IP when you can shoe in one that prints money?

The area NEEDS the river at the very least. I can live without TSI. But that water adds so much to the park you can’t make up for with a thrill ride. I hope they also make the geography more realistic- seeing a piston shaped mountain while standing in the Wild West street would be bizarre.

If Disney cared about their fans feelings, perhaps. But I’d say the chances are near zero. It’d help to send emails/letters to higher ups to express your feelings though, I’m going to do so.

Losing the riverboat truly is a loss. I hope they can bring it somewhere else.

It still makes no sense to put Monsters in MuppetVision to me, especially with much more space sitting unused in Animation Courtyard.

Last time I went was also my first time seeing it. It truly is a technical marvel and far more entertaining than the HoP- it helps that it’s mostly physical AAs as opposed to video. I fear it won’t be around much longer, but I hope I’m wrong.

Fair points. I’m with you in hoping they can make something good out of it. Not to be a broken record, but all I need out of this is something that captures the same aesthetic and feeling the view of the river currently has. Have it been more New England-y on the LS side and transition to more...

I was thinking of something like that- it’d carry on the tradition of the current president being added to the show and keep the show new every 4-8 years. I wonder what’s going to happen to old the old animatronics? I feel like a few could stay- Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Roosevelt, Obama?

So the question is- does it close after the election this year to be replaced, or do they leave it open in case Harris wins so they can at least have the first woman president in the HoP? I can only imagine it’d be bad optics if they closed it permanently right as America gets the first woman...

It’s interesting that you frame the “moral superiority” of people who aren’t happy with the loss of RoA/TSI as being upset purely because of politics/Walts beliefs or hatred against Imagineers. Most people in this thread and on Twitter have been expressing that they’re majorly upset with the...

I think there's a near (but not) zero chance that the Mansion gets replaced. It moves too much merchandise, and if you thought people were upset about RoA/TSI or Muppets...

If the concept art is any indicator, the queue is getting moved somewhere else.

It's not over in the sense of "there's still a chance the rivers may stay in some form" or "it's going to get a lot worse and we're going to lose more iconic attractions"?

Well color me surprised. I also just remembered that Frozen isn't included in the Princess brand, so that's probably why the number is smaller than expected lol.

This map from the permit suggests that they are interested in building outside the tracks, which makes the fact they're destroying attractions within the track berm even more senseless.

Disney Princesses as a brand didn't start until 2000, and I doubt the number of total revenue is including each individual princesses' merch sales from 1937-2000. But yeah, I agree, the placement is the main issue here. I personally can live with Cars, but I can't live with the loss of the only...

The bright side about the Cars characters not being super integral to the ride means that perhaps someday if the Cars IP is no longer popular, the ride itself can just be reskinned to something else/something original.
