American Idol Experience To Close

[DinoInstitute]

Something is definitely coming to the Studios and the impression I've been given is that it's a pretty large project. I'm gonna say Star Wars Land and Cars Land are both coming.

I doubt Carsland. That boat flew away already.

I'll be happy to see American Kareoke Contest be removed...

 

[DisneyWall-E]

Good.

 

[surfsupdon]

Good.

The building and loud blasting music and large tv screen don't fit in with that old world Hollywood that I love.

Good riddance.

BTW, does anyone know who the judges are made to represent nowadays?? Still Simon Paula Randy? Or the new ones?? J.Lo, Mariah, Nicki, Urban??! Who judges?

He quite probably does, but he has enough class to keep quiet.

I was waiting for the cast to be told first.

So if this is SW, then that would kinda mean that they are not after all expanding the park and instead taking control of another nice area, and having a weird as heck transition from Hollywood boulevard to SW.

I just don't see that happening, this has got to be something else.

Unless the entrance to any new facility was from the other side possibly. With a proper facade facing towards HB and no BAH.

*Leaves to research Google earth*

Mini-Carsland would be cool.

I have been sure the announcement would come this year and was hoping for this month. Give what is going on a US next week and knowing how each company tries to steal the others thunder I think the announcement may come this month. At least I hope so. The DHS announcement has to come before Epcots.

Just for clarification what theoretical Epcot announcement are you talking about? Redo of FW?

Yes. Future world and maybe the rat ride everyone keeps talking about. I would like more countries too but I'm not holding my breath.

 

[DisneyGentleman]

Now, the big question is how long they'll let that area sit empty. Who's taking bets? 5 years? 10?

They will just rename it American Idle Experience.

It's TDO, you'd be holding your breath til global warming drowned Orlando

The cheapest and easiest thing to put inside the art deco music theater, with the inclined floor, would be another musical theater type of show, but gutting everything, leveling out that floor, and putting a ride in that space would be a really slow and expensive task that I just can't see happening

There are going to be lots of announcements in the next 2 years. New rides, attractions, resorts and more. Disney will be much bigger in 7 years for the 50th.

 

[Soarin' Over Pgh]

Do I want Star Wars land to be real?!? Duck yes.

I have nothing to share, so I won't add to the rumors.

I love your liberal use ...of your love of ...feathered friends lately.

But you would tell us, even hint at it, if you heard Star Wars rumblings right? Because that's just not fair, we need something to look forward to. Pandora isn't cutting it.

And how is it you know this, exactly?

 

[Cmdr_Crimson]

Hopefully something will be better than the last show being in that theater...

 

[wdwmagic]

And how is it you know this, exactly?

Probably based on there being nothing announced other that Avatar. If nothing is announced in the next couple of years, WDW will basically go through to 2020 with nothing new other than AVATAR and some associated DAK upgrades. I don't see that happening.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!
Finally a closure I am excited about. Wooohooo!!!! Better be true. Add a Villains attraction.

Is sounds dangerous still there too?

We totally believe you

Believe me, if I hear anything… I'll sanitizer through the proper people and someone else will release it.

I cover my and I cover the rear of any of my sources.

Building still there. The attraction however, that's long gone.
