Disney's Hollywood Studios Name Change

[No Name]

I don't want a new name either, but Iger confirmed it is coming. So I would, personally, be shocked if there wasn't a full fledged re-dedication.

Why? They didn't rededicate Euro Disneyland, Disney-MGM Studios, or Epcot Center when those names changed. California Adventure in 2012 was the first time a park was rededicated. All Iger basically did was use the thesaurus on Eisner's words. But at least he had some reason, as the park was panned from day one, and needed a fresh start.

DHS's present state is almost entirely Bob Iger and co's fault. I imagine he'll try to pretend the park was was troubled since day one, but that's not at all true.

Magic Kingdom is not officially "Magic Kingdom Park." Nor is Animal Kingdom.

Regardless, the difference is there's always a word before Park that denotes place. Even though your trash MDE app may read Magic Kingdom Park or Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park, do you call it that verbally? Would you ever say "Hey kids, today we're going to Magic Kingdom Park!"? No, because the word Kingdom already denotes place. The word Magic is an adjective.

The difference with Disney('s) Cinemagine Park is that there's no other word that denotes place, so Park must fill that role. "Hey Kids, today we're going to Cinemagine!" doesn't sound right, instead you would naturally include Park in everyday speak.

I cannot think of a single major theme park for which that's the case.

I agree, I agree!

However, this is what it says on their website:

Statement of the year.

And we'll hopefully never find out

Now on that point we are in complete agreement.

Moving the discussion to the appropriate thread: Disney's Cinemagine Park. The rumored name. Let's dish.

"THERE'S A SNAKE IN MY BOOT!"
"Somebody's poisoned the water hole!"

The CM alert code name when the bathroom gets stained, blocked or overflowed... is "Somebody poisoned the water hole!"

I dont see the confusion here.. the "PARK" is now the name, its just the clarification that its a PARK.

You do not heard "Welcome to the Magic Kingdom PARK" .. they just say MAGIC KINGDOM.

If the name is really Cinnabonmagine, I think I'll just stick to calling it MGM. It's worked for me since 1989, why stop now?

At which point SWGE will be renamed to Starbucks Wars: Grande Expresso Land

I say it out loud, and I hear "Sin, imagine...."

I had previously worked out that the only logical name for the revised park would be Disney Disney Disney, but on further reflection, I'm putting my chips on Disney Park 3, as part of a resort-wide name-simplification effort.

Cinemagine sounds like the name of a show at a Disney park, not the name of a Disney park.

 

[NormC]

Cinemagine is a terrible name. Hollywood Adventure makes more sense.

I like Cinemagic

I like it too. Great new theater in Hookset NH with IMAX. Another one with great seats in Portsmouth NH. The Salisbury MA one needs a facelift though.

 

[Dead2009]

Cinemagine sounds like a Six Flags land.

Disney Magical Movieland Park.

Disney Magical Movieland Park.

"Magical Movieland" wouldn't be bad. Not my favorite option by any means, but certainly better than Cinemagine....

Agreed. And mine was totally made up. Thinking about it more seriously, "Disney Movie Park" is probably along the lines with what they're thinking. Generic, bland, and wholly fits with what they seem to be doing with TPFKATDMGMS.
