DHS Makeover - What we know so far.....

[Matt_Black]

The franchise isn't performing better – based on what, the latest TV show?

I believe it's the highest rated new show of the season. It's also doing well considering it's on a crowded TV night, including ratings juggernaut The Voice.

Additionally, they're addressing some of the problems of the first half of the season when the show comes back in February. More zaniness and heart. New human villain in the form of some exec trying to rebrand Piggy's show for the Muppets to rally against

 

[WildcatDen]

Right now the consensus is Monstropolis

Matches what I have heard.

I really hope it's better.

More from a galaxy far far away.

Hmm, more aligment of rumors and half truths. I had originally thought this made sense when I heard it but was not sure. . .

Interesting that this should come up. Screamscape is reporting that a Star Wars phase 2 is being looked at for Disneyland. Could the two be related?

I'm not going to argue with you on this as it matters little how you or I feel on the matter. The powers that be expected the last film and current series to perform better, which they didn't. They have not given up on the franchise which is why we keep the show and get dining. Otherwise, we'd get a wrecking ball.

So muppets dining for sure?!? Yay!!!!!

I mean this in all due respect
To the moderator, but can we get a DHS sub forum soon? Or is it best to wait until shovels hit? Again, I love this site and mean no disrespect in asking

Plenty of permits have been filed.

Steve must have a reason. Clearly it confuses many of us and yet, here we continue.

I've heard the same.

We got a new Indiana Jones film coming confirmed by Bob iger. My question is what will go first indy or muppets? So Spielberg is working with Disney now?

Spielberg actually was working with Disney for about 5 years through the Dreamworks distribution deal with films like "Lincoln", etc. This would be Spielberg coming back to one of his most well known pieces of work though.

Right now the consensus is Monstropolis.

I hope so. I think that if they insist on lands for single IP, Monstropolis is an pretty ideal option.

And maybe a phase 2.5 for you know what.

Oh please oh please be true.

FWIW, Spielberg is directing The BFG for Disney, which is being released this summer. It is the first film that he is directed for Disney's studio.

BFG looks like a good family film. I hope it is even better than that.

I hope that Speilberg and Disney team up again for Indy 5. Even if the movie disappoints, it may give Disney an excuse to finally build an Indy ride at DHS.
