    DHS Disney Confirms Muppets Take Over Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at Hollywood Studios

    He was largely memory-holed because they killed him off screen like 20 years ago. Deleted scenes from It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie explain he died and left the theater to the Muppets who discovered all the debt it had, leading into their situation of creating a template for Jason...

    DHS Disney Confirms Muppets Take Over Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at Hollywood Studios

    Disney ride scripts have been atrocious since the Jack Sparrow-ing of Pirates.

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    As a puppetry driven film, it aged much more gracefully then either Philharmagic or Tough to be a Bug. I'm shocked that the Coco addition to Philharmagic didn't become a bigger project to reanimate the whole thing, it's so jarring to see an early 2000s CG character interacting with a modern...

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    Especially when a walkthrough creature zoo attraction with an animatronic rancor was actually pitched for Batuu.

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    They've done some "Classic characters go to Batuu" stories already, biggest one I can think is a Thrawn and Vader novel that places their first meeting on Batuu during the Clone Wars while he was still Anakin and having to go back there again during the Imperial era. Just do a "Tales from...

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    Fantasyland used to be the catchall Disney animation land because they made so many fairy tales. Most Pixar movies are just characters in a big city, therefore I see no reason you can't just mash all the movies together into one big Pixartropolis.

    EPCOT Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    That's what the restaurant is for. They even called the setting the Centauri Space Station.

    EPCOT Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    And its a shallow and basic take on imagination with an imaginary friend character that's even more obnoxious and annoying then the current version of Figment.

    EPCOT Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    Imagination 4 is a "In case everybody is ed off at us, break glass" move. I think that criteria has been reached.

    Pumpkin patch is looking real sincere this year.

    DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    Better then the "We ran out of money for this hallway, get the guy that paints blacklight minigolf courses to put up some skeleton warriors" situation at Indy.

    DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    Because Carnotaurus is a dinosaur from the Tropical Americas, as is the Saltasaurus. Not to mention that the Lost World, the book that created the "hidden place full of dinosaurs" trope was set in South America. And hey, since Indiana Jones movies are perfectly fine with using neat sounding...

    EPCOT Test Track to be reimagined

    Nature documentaries are not marketable IP. Nobody was riding the Jungle Cruise and going "Look, it's the famous and marketable character The African Lion from Disney's The African Lion". Hell, the ride is most often described as an unlicensed adaptation of The African Queen because of the tramp...

    DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Even with the updates coming to Falcon, Star Tours is still too valuable to keep as a "All the classic familiar Star Wars characters and locations" thing. I feel like they'd sooner relocate it to Galaxy's Edge then get rid of it entirely and they'd probably see it as worth the investment versus...

    Gatto (Pixar 2027)

    Newt was legitimately cancelled because they recognized the Rio similarities and Antz exists because Jeffrey Katzenberg actually asked John Lasseter what his post-Toy Story plans were and rushed a clone to market.

    DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. The love of reusing the same Toy Story character sculpture molds across various Toy Story projects.

    DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Static figures are perfect for flying past on a coaster versus the slow moving ride they're installed on now. And they can go "Look, we brought the Drew Carey CDA agent back as an homage to Sounds Dangerous"
