Yup - I forgot MMR was ever at WDW.
While I hate to see it go, I've never watched the show with more than 20-30 people.
But keep Stitch out - he doesn't belong in that Land.
I think they should just expand Aloha Isle into the space - they could use some more counter space and seating so you can eat your Dole Whip in the shade.

The buzz sets are inferior to the DL version but i think it does well for fitting into the MK. Nit everything needs to be so serious

Do you count Avatar Land replacing Camp Minnie and Mickey? That was really a temporary area and expansion pad being replaced. Another recent one would be FLE replacing Mickey's Toon Town and the abandoned 20,000 Leagues ride at MK. It's not a one for one replacement though I think Mine Train is actually an upgrade over the original 20,000 Leagues as a one for one replacement. I'm sure many people will disagree with that.
There's not really many good examples. Then again, there aren't a whole lot of major attractions co pletely replaced overall. Some people probably do prefer Test Track to World of Motion or Pooh over Mr Toad or maybe Frozestrom over Malestrom.

Mission:Space improved over Horizons. Test Track over WoM. Alien Encounter over Moon/Mars. Closed theater over Captain EO. New Lion King over Old Lion King. Disney Springs over Pleasure Island. Circusland over Birthdayland. Mermaid/Beast/Snow White over 20K.
In my opinion.

A hard no for me on Horizons and PI. The rest are certainly debateable.
TSMM over Millionaire. Frozen Sing-along over American Idol. Star Wars Stage Shows over a big hat. Empty guest area over Jack Sparrow.

I like Mission Space and even I have to say that's crazy.

I thought the same thing. That could make a great dining experience. Reopen Tangaroa Terrace, install the birds over there and have at it.

I'm just happy the first instance of Buzz is meeting its end.

Was 2018 though the whole HK expansion is in a holding pattern last I heard

I thought you meant MK since that's where the first Buzz attraction was built.

Man, I know you like to keep a positive outlook, JT, but other then Circusland (which didn't really add any rides) and possibly NFL... nope nope nope nope nope.
M:S and TT? I mean... every opinion is valid but... wow. The originals in those space were masterpieces of ride construction, full of witty AAs and the hope and optimism associated with Disney and the World Fairs.
And Pleasure Island was a unique entertainment venue with at least one attraction (AC) unlike anything in the world, and it was replaced by a lifestyle center that can be found in any major American city.

Food Rocks to Soarin', Camp Minnie Mickey to Avatar, Jungle Book Alive with Magic to RoL.

I don't think we can count JBA to RoL since the former only existed because RoL wasn't ready - it was a placeholder.
Food Rocks to Soarin' yes, Kitchen Kabaret to Soarin' no.
In both cases, it's Disney correcting massive missteps.

I agree completely on PI. For those who never experienced it in its prime when it was still behind closed gates with New Years Eve every night its hard to understand what was lost. It truly was a unique experience. Disney Springs is nice and an upgrade over DTD post PI closing (especially for shopping and fine food) but it cannot compare to PI from an entertainment perspective.
For TT I can see an argument being made. At the time it opened it was cutting edge ride technology. It was a pretty big deal back then. Losing World of Motion was unfortunate, but I think many people forgive it more since the replacement was pretty good and there were still several similar ride experiences at EPCOT at the time. M:S much harder to argue.
