ITTBAB was 27 years old when it closed. Time is something isn’t it?

They probably will be keeping the caverns and such especially with the Jane Goodall tribute and Plaque by the entry way into the theater queue...This may not take long if they are looking for a summer opening..
The concept art shows it looks like a hollow tree including where Clawhouser / Hopper was..

I've always wondered what happened to that tunnel when they built the patio area on top of it. Hopefully they can return to that level of immersion when they branch out into Simba.

That would be nice but didn’t the permits imply some pretty heavy duty demo/ construction in there?

Unless their gutting the seating area for new seating and patching holes up where spiders jumped I have no clue..Just, wild guessing...

They're expecting a Winter opening though, likely November/December to tie in with Zootopia 2They probably will be keeping the caverns and such especially with the Jane Goodall tribute and Plaque by the entry way into the theater queue...This may not take long if they are looking for a summer opening..

While Clawhouser is in the hollow of a tree, the rest of the (projected) cast look like they're running past that tree. They're running on grass about to go over a root of tree. Behind them is not the back of a tree hollow, but one of the forest biomes. We see tree houses, a skyline, and a street lamp with street signs. We also see what looks like the end of a pier on the bottom left.They probably will be keeping the caverns and such especially with the Jane Goodall tribute and Plaque by the entry way into the theater queue...This may not take long if they are looking for a summer opening..

So, to recap, it is not all in the hollow of a tree, and very likely, there is no shrinking of the audience. We humans would be as tall as the gazelle or water buffalo without shrinking. If we were 'shrunk' those characters' hooves would fill up the entire screen if they got close to us. Altho... in a fantasy setting, who knows if the audience gets to experience Zootopia from the POV of animals of different sizes and our 'scale' would be constantly changing...

Could also be using the Jam cams that are throughout Zootopia as you see clawhouse has a few laptops around him..

Y’all never learn do ya?
i was away for time for vacation and also reconnecting with friends that have some input on this. Zootopia streaming has gone up in development and we will see both! For a time zootopia and then a retransition and back to tough to be a bug. Similar to test tracks refresh and return to branding before. Surprised it will go this way but thank you for your patience. Does this clear it up now? No more doubters

Well, I was going to write out a whole reply to your utterly ridiculous and nonsensical post, but I think this does a better job than anything I could possibly come up with:

It'd be nice to see, but Tough to be a Bug has been squished. It's not coming back. Even if Zootopia 2 somehow nukes royally at the box office and on streaming (which it won't)

A big surprise. Like the sun exploding tomorrow. It ain't happening the way you just described. Either you or your friends are lying.

Fans: "Disney takes the theme for Animal Kingdom super seriously. They're totally going to transform Encanto into an educational nature ride and make the franchise about the archeologist aaaaalllll about the animals!"
Disney: "RAVE PARTY IN THE TREE OF LIFE, MAAAAAAN!'

Tough To Be A Bug isn't coming back. Very much like the situation with Alien/Stitch Encounter, Disney has been looking to exit Tough To Be A Bug for some time. It received a high number of guest complaints, and due to the nature of the show, was a poor utilization of the space. The new show will be far more child friendly.Y’all never learn do ya?

I guess Disney chooses which complaints they want to hear? Because they certainly don’t seem to care about the ROA complaints. I’m guessing it has zero to do with complaints and everything to do with getting Zootopia in there. But yes it will most likely be more child friendly partly due to the (likely very few) ITTBBAB complaints.
Disappointing, but not surprising, that TTBAB was on the chopping block for some time.
