How close is Star Tours to Muppets 3D?

Nextdoor, pizzerizzo is inbetween

So theoretically an expanded Muppets land could be realized simply by retheming Star Tours. We talking Pigs in Space or Dr Teeth and the Electric Mayhem?

I’d go Muppet Labs. Animatronic Beaker replaces 3PO, hilarity ensues.

I have to ask - is this a personal thought or is it based on other information?

Gut feeling. I don't think they want to expand GE... yet. They have an expansion plot already in the land, yes?

The land is 14 acres so obviously they are in no rush. The only expansion pad I see is behind Olga's Cantina.

Brand new Figment attraction… but in the Stitch space at Tomorrowland. Just to watch the drama.

I think the Gen Z Muppets fans have saved the attraction. I’ve noticed that a lot of Gen Z people love Muppets

Nah, In Buzz building. Collecting sparks of imagination.

Maybe. I think they may announce something with Galactic Starcruiser. The permits filed a while back certainly weren't for demolition.

Disney announced a new cruise ship based out of Tokyo and run by the OLC. This feels like an announcement we would’ve heard at D23 in the past.

OLC Cruise line? Damn im down.

 

[Rhinocerous]

Hmm. Let’s see. The last thing Jim Henson worked on, vs the combined might of the Disney Muppets and current WDI.

Yeah, leave their grubby hands off of this.

I want MuppetVision 3D to stay as well, but credit where it's due. The Great Moments in History shows were very well done.

 

[Streetway]

I wish d23 would just happen already, I’m sick of the anticipation

If we are spitballing retheming Star tours, what about futurama? It’s a property that has synergy (the reboot) I feel it’s still relevant, new property in the parks, fits in with the spaceship theme, and could be a lot of fun! Also I think futurama is still relevant and could sell merch.

I just don’t see how Futurama or Simpsons fits well into a park designed for families.

DHS is kinda the more adult park already, and I don’t think groening stuff is so edgy it’d be out of place of DHS as it would’ve been in the past, it’s more tame from todays standards. I still wouldn’t put it in MK, but I feel like it could work. Also synwrgy and all that.

 

[Streetway]

Idk if star tours is even closed soon, but even if it does would the ride system be retained?

 

[Gusey]

Star Tours new scenes has given that attraction some more shelf life, especially as it is one of the few additions to WDW this year along with Tiana's, CommuniCore, Country Bears and Little Mermaid show

True, it barley gets waits at wdw anymore, which is crazy imo. Ride used to be so crowded before SWGE.
