“Something major” coming to DHS???

[danlb_2000]

I just want unique attractions and offerings. Keep Cars Land in DCA and bring us new never before seen attractions that are real park investments in theme and capacity!

What do thing this is, Universal?

Because Universal never clones things on both coasts like MarioKart, Hogsmede, Simpsons, Supercharged/Kong, or Transformers.

Can you do this by overlaying it over the area between Animation Courtyard and RNRC?

If you flip the entire land, it MIGHT fit as a 1:1 copy. Mater's Junkyard Jamboree might need to be cut or relocated because it would be where Brown Derby and Disney Junior Play and Dance! is.

MJJ is also the same ride system as A$$ in the land right next door, so it would be a natural cut (though, yes, Disney does sometimes build multiple similar rides in the same park).

The ideal scenario would have them retheme A$$ to MJJ and relocate it to Carsland (perhaps not in the exact same spot as DCA’s) and then build another TS flat ride, since TS is a much more versatile IP than Cars.

I think it’s possible that building goes away if they add in that direction no matter what they do. Play and Dance can be moved to a box somewhere else in the park and Brown Derby is one of the least essential restaurants in the park. Should invest in the Start Wars table service over in GE instead.

That actually works since Disney JR can be sacrificed lol

Could be a heck of a view from ToT and the Cadillac Range will allow them to hide the RNRC building.

What the Disney Jr show provides is really important to the park, but it would not be a massive haul to build a new theater or retrofit one of the other theaters on the park grounds to do the show. I think an expansion through Animation Courtyard would move the show, not end it.

I could see Disney Jr easily being relocated to either the Racing Academy space or the Mickey Shorts Theater/Meet & Greets if they needed to move it.

That being said, I’m not sure this expansion would impact it. With Mermaid coming back, I can’t imagine they’re looking to replace that anytime soon. I can’t imagine they’d replace one of those buildings without the other.

Muppet Courtyard would be a good place for it.

To piggyback, I also heard Phase 2 Villains plan moved to DHS to pair with Monsters Inc and other IPs.

@Magicart87 Quoting you from the other thread so the discussion is in the right place: Is Monsters Inc still actually on the table?

It's all still fluid. I was told DHS was to be either Cars or Monsters but then late in the game whispers of Villains as Phase 2 at MK was not happening... or possibly going to DHS instead... which led to a tinfoil hat theory of TDO pairing Monsters Inc and Villains into a single land within DHS. But now that I type it out loud, sure seems like a heckofashuffle and $$$ to get rolling so whoknows.

 

[Parker41056]

Move Muppets to Sunset Showcase to replace Lightning McQueen and retheme RNRC to Electric Mayhem. Boom.

That's been my idea as well.
- Muppets Mayhem could offer different soundtracks like Cosmic Rewind. Create a new Muppets Vision with upgraded show, effects, etc.
- Use space where the Muppets is now for Star Wars Pod Racer expansion.
- Reskin Star Tours to something Marvel
- Tear Expand area to add Wakanda

 

[Parker41056]

Retheme it to a different action IP. The infrastructure over there is probably way too costly to remove, it'd be much easier to reskin it to something like a Mando theme and continue the SW IP farther into the park.

And get rid of the Muppets crap at the same time. Don't get me wrong, it's fine, but it's only a draw when it's 100 degrees out and everything else in the park is a60 minute Wait..

I think Disney could re-theme to a Marvel stunt show using Guardians, Black Panther , Fantastic Four, ect..

Not Fantastic Four (thanks Uni.)

Doctor Strange & Shang Chi could make an appearance

 

[Stupido]

Guardians, Dr. Strange, and Shang Chi could make for an excellent stunt show.

Guardians could be more air based with their jetpacks/space theme using rope work.

Dr. Strange could lean into the mystic arts and utilize more theatre tricks and special effects.

Shang Chi has given us some of the best hand to hand combat in all of the MCU to date.

To be honest, this is the best idea for Marvel integration I've seen for Hollywood with Universals limits.

Yes, and you can even incorporate some lesser known characters as well. I think it would be a huge people eater and a big draw for the younger audience.

That whole corner could turn into Disney’s Marvel area. Marvel stunt show, retheme Star tours to a Guardians attraction, and then create a Wakanda E ticket attraction with a Quinn jet focus into parking lot.

 

[Sectorkeeper71]

I’ve been in the feature animation building once or twice and it doesn’t seem to have much going on it. The Ops building definetly does though. It may be easier to relocate that than redo the parking lot, again. (I know they didn’t completely redo it, but did reconfigure things)

I will go to my grave saying the most shortsighted thing they did in the last DHS redo was not making the parking lot a garage to account for future expansion

 

[doctornick]

Is there any hopes/thoughts/plans about adding the missing table service restaurant to Galaxy's Edge (could also apply to DL) since that space is there waiting to be developed?

Or, at least in regards to DHS, could they incorporate Starcruiser's infrastructure as an add on (e.g. dinner show a la Hoop Dee Doo) to enhance the offerings of GE?

D'Amaro has said that something is coming for the Starcruiser, but not yet what that might be. My assumption is that it wouldn't be a high priority given the DL Forward and BBTMR stuff they are kicking around.

By current guest trends, there is way too much TS dining across property. I can't see them adding another at DHS without shifting capacity elsewhere. Can't imagine they'd close 50's or Sci Fi, Woody's is brand new, Hollywood & Vine is a cheap buffet that prints money with the characters, Brown Derby is the only "signature" (term used lightly) in the park, sooo... Mama Melrose? Don't think they'd go *that* route without something else happening in that corner of the park. It's nearly a ghost town as it is.
