Hmmm... It may have been Disney on Ice but that was well over 20 years ago.
Hollywood Blvd Theatre of the Stars
Backlot Theatre,
Sunset Blvd Theatre of Stars
And the reworked running order we have today (opening with Prologue/Belle as opposed to Be Our Guest)

I know :"That Other Park"
Well, just for completion sake:
I think they'll change it to PIXAR Hollywood Studios.
It will retain the Hollywood theme, to keep Tower of Terror, Muppets, etc. but everything else will be themed PIXAR. It will be *the* PIXAR park, making it very easy for tourists to "get" what it's all about and have a reason to go there.
Now now, where will the Star Wars presence go? I predict... where Tomorrowland is. I predict Disney will want a solid "boy" complement to the "girl" fantasyland (with frontier and adventure being gender neutral). I also think that this would support a move for Star Wars as a franchise away from "movie magic" as a theme, to "fantasy magic". So, Star Wars won't be associated with film anymore, but will be treated as a full blown space fantasy (multi-media).
And my main evidence for this move is that I think we're seeing rumblings of Burbank stepping in to save both Tomorrowland and Future World by consolidating them - moving TL - to EPCOT. That's the point of the new movie, why it was ordered.
In any event, if Star Wars left DHS, it would leave room for PIXAR to fill in all the holes. If Backlot Express, LMA, Echo Lake area, Star Tours, and Indy all go - all that room could be for PIXAR. And PIXAR could definitely support it, especially with those awful rides from Paris Studios (hopefully not). Monsters Inc. coaster, CARS land, UP! ride, Inside Out, Bug's Life play area, etc. etc.
So, I'm predicting "PIXAR Hollywood Studios".
Maybe the Chinese theatre will be decorated for whichever is the newest PIXAR film to come out. Hmm...

I think the park should just be called "Theme Park."

You need to rework the title. Disney's Theme Park.

That's the problem with naming things by committee. Soon, it'll be:
The Magical Theme Park Experience at Walt Disney World Resort
The Visionary Soul

Disney Park.

My bad, that's a good idea. It should be "Disney Theme Park®" instead lol.

We would like to unveil our new centerpiece, a park renovation 5 years in the making, over $2 billion dollars in development, and our best theme park to date. May we present: Tom!

Correct!
Though TDO did confirm that the name would only be used tentatively, until the new name is chosen in due time. They've been testing the "Larry" idea since late last year I believe. The Larry name should also begin to appear on park merch./literature by this summer at some point.
I only find this acceptable if they name the other parks "Daryl".
