I think we’re gonna have to agree to disagree on this one. I think the script is hilarious, the effects still hold up, and you can’t beat the surprise when a real Sweetums comes out into the audience. It’s one of my favorite attractions and one of my favorite Muppet projects. I’ll...

Monstropolis is 100% going to suffer from this, even with Stage One out of the way.

I think the answer lies more in “Muppets would be substantially cheaper to develop for this project.” No demo or retrofitting buildings for the coaster. Turning existing restaurant space into Harryhausens. Etc.

But when a majority of the guests don’t like the ride or show enough to go on it, maybe it’s time to go back to the drawing board…

I don’t understand what you mean by this. Of course no E-tickets were trackless, that wasn’t a thing when those were around. As for clones; POTC, Jungle Cruise, Mansion, and Small World were all MK E-tickets cloned from Disneyland. If Ratatouille isn’t an E, what in EPCOT is? Guardians, Test...

This would be why I specified the Muppet Show 😉

Of course he wouldn’t have, he wasn’t alive to see Cars, Monsters Inc., Indiana Jones, Encanto, or the Muppet Show 😉

Don’t get me wrong, I love the classic vibes at Disney parks, but I don’t think we can expect a 21st century audience to be impressed with everything that was designed in the 1960s. Tastes change. It’s a testament to the original imagineers that things like Jungle Cruise, Tiki Room, and Small...

What MK attractions do you think might be less popular?

In fairness, a big reason why people love those older films is the promotion by Disney. Movies like Pinocchio or Alice in Wonderland only became classics because of Disney insisting that they were. They rereleased them in theaters and home video. They were given attractions at Disneyland and...

I mean, since 2017 WDW has gotten Pandora, RoTR, MMRR, Cosmic Rewind, Tron, and Rat. Your mileage may vary with these, but I think it’s a pretty stellar lineup. I honestly think we need to have some optimism with changes to the parks, or we risk getting burnt out of this hobby we enjoy. I’m...

Spaceship Earth is a good one I think. It really puts you in history and has scenes/quotes that stick in your mind (we all know who invented the ABCs…). I’d say American Adventure fits into this category as well. I think a more overarching view of American history is more entertaining than...

They do learn information on a good handful of presidents. Washington, Jefferson, Jackson, Lincoln, and both Roosevelts are all highlighted in the film portion. Now, little Timmy might not retain any of it after a full day at the park…

I think it’s fair. I don’t think that fans are entitled to the last show/ride on anything. It’s not like Disney is putting this behind a paywall and having a $3000 ticket to the last show. The 7th is still going to be the last public showing, this is just a special encore for the people who...

MuppetVision is over 30 years old and it does feel its age. But this is Disney we’re talking about. Their whole brand is based on Nostalgia. Carousel of Progress feels old. Peter Pan’s Flight feels old. It’s a Small World feels old. Etc. I think there should be room in these parks for some...

In fairness, a lot of people don’t find MuppetVision repeatable either (I am not one of these people, but several members of my family are). Whereas I know people who ride Falcon or Mania over and over to try to top their high score. I think the main thing hurting the repeatability of new...

I think they should have the Mayhem cover Walk this Way for this attraction, assuming it has multiple songs like Cosmic Rewind does.

Modern WDW would never pay to put an animatronic in a new themed DHS restaurant…

As in Burbank.

It was filmed on the town square set at the Disney backlot, which is why it doesn’t look exactly like an existing park. But I do believe it is supposed to be DHS since you can see Pluto and Mickey Balloons.
