Disney's Hollywood Studios Name Change

[Wegerter]

You're trend was abandoned starting seven years ago.

Could you elaborate please?

New name was first mentioned by Jim Hill on the September 26, 2014 episode of the Unofficial Guide Disney Dish. He said likeliest name right now is Disney's Hollywood Adventure.

I think they should go with Magical Kingdom. It will confuse a lot of people and help disperse crowds from the real Magic Kingdom.

Maybe they will pay nod to this forum and name is TPFKAMGM

Haven't read through everything here, but if they're going to change the name, might as well go with "Disney Potluck Land"... there's a little of this, a little of that.. kinda like potluck dinner, lol.

There is not much more to it. The switch from "Disney's Whatever" to "Disney Whatever" was happening as early as late 2007.

True...I remember us talking about the grammatical (in)correctness.

Disney Spirited Change is Coming park.

I've always thought DisneyPark Florida 3 had a nice franchise/branded experience ring to it.

Disney's Now we own this IP too park.

Many think Hollywood Studios = Universal Studios, so maybe call it Not Universal Studios (the Not could refer to both Universal and Studios).
or better yet
Disney Acquisitions (referring to the purchase of Pixar, Lucas films, and rights to Aerosmith and Twilight Zone)

Iger's Franchise Kingdom?

 

[englanddg]

Bob and Stagg's Excellent Adventure?

Tower of Terror Kingdom featuring Toy Story Mania reimagined to the hit short Frozen Fever (ToTKfTSMrhsFF) Wait, what?

Then, instead of Brazilian tour groups, the park would be full of midwestern grandmas/church ladies carrying casserole dishes looking for 'the church basement'. (they can be bossy, but know their manners...so might be a good trade off).

BTW.....I am still guilty of the whole MGM name usage.

'The Church Basement' - New restaurant... I'm for it!

Alas, we'll never know if it was a joke.

I do think I may have been remembering it wrong though. It actually was set in the south of France. Coming in 2016, be prepared to be dazzled by Epcot's new attraction: "Impressions de France with Ariel and Friends"

Aaand there it is.

Hey guys! Long-time no-talk! I don't post as much as I use to, but I sure do miss y'all! Anyway, I'm too lazy to read 8 pages, so this may have been suggested -- and shot down -- but I was thinking, what about this?

Now don't be all cynical an s---, like some of you use to be when I was a kid. This is just casual conversation here, haha.

Not that I claim to be nearly as good as the people actually in charge of this stuff, but these have a nice ring to them...

Disney's Hollywood Stories
Disney's Stories of Hollywood
Disney's Storied Hollywood

Any of them would be a cohesive name for a park that tells both a) the fictional stories that great Hollywood creative minds have dreamed up and brought to life, and b) the stories that involved countless people every day in the actual city.

I also quite like the Disney's Hollywoodland idea that's been tossed around here for a while.

I certainly prefer Hollywoodland to Hollywood Adventure. Hollywoodland conjurs images of a glamorous age of storytelling. Adventure makes me think they are trying too hard...

@englanddg for the win!
