Disney's Hollywood Studios: What's Next

Why is Stitch's Great Escape even mentioned about being moved to DHS? Please scrap that attraction and pretend it never existed.

Actually, for Theme Park Apprentice 4 on Theme Park Insider, I got rid of Stitch completely and replaced it with a WALL-E 4-D show about the environment and how it is important to recycle.

My main point is, that ride does not belong anywhere. And I don't believe Captain EO or Honey I Shrunk the Audience would work either. Or those Aladdin carpets.

Though I'd love to see Cinemagique or the "Coming Soon..." idea. It sounds clever and a way to showcase future films, something that would definitely belong in DHS.

The idea is: return it back to the original Alien ExtraTERRORestrial Encounter, which was a solid attraction, and move it to DHS.

OR...rewrite the script. Extensively. Have Lilo come in and dress Stitch down for his bad behavior...or perhaps his behavior could be attributed to a "glitch" (a la the excellent DTV movie "Stitch Has A Glitch") that Lilo and Jumba and Pleakely have to sort out. I don't think the show should be tossed out completely. Technicially, it's superb; it's just the script that falls so tragically short...

No RSR in Hollywood Studios please. I fell it should stay uniqe to DCA. Hollywood studios deserves something all its own imo.

I agree. And since Disney is doing an Oz film...I'd be very happy if TDO follows WDW1974's idea of adapting the 1939 Oz film into a ride for DHS. Seriously, a really good Oz ride/attraction at a major theme park is WAY overdue!

After John Carter and Tron's failures, I think Disney will be taking a wait-and-see approach when it comes to building attractions off of new live action movies.

And I just read in a story about The Walt Disney Company's quarterly report that the Muppets DVD sales fell short of expectations. So I wouldn't expect an expansion based on THAT property either...

Do you have something against The Muppets? In a lot of threads I've seen you comment on, there's always some sort of mentioning of your dislike for them. I'm honestly just curious.

Perhaps Disney could build a Carsland at MGM, but since they obviously wouldn't be willing to fork over the cash to build a Radiator Springs Racers they could just re-theme the current Moteurs Action stunt show, but still build all the kiddy rides and shops and things from the California version.

Movie Alien Encounter, or Stitch?

If I had my druthers, I'd go back to the original attraction but change the old alien out for the xenomorph from the "Alien" films.

But just going back to the original attraction would be enough.

I have something against them appearing any more extensively in the Disney parks. To me, they're an old property that hasn't aged well, and are an ill fit with Disney. Although Marvel is much much worse...anyway, one attraction with them is enough IMO, since you asked. The reason I comment on them in various threads is that some people really want them expanded upon, with a dark ride and a restaurant and all that. Which I find objectionable, so I comment about it, but then we're all entitled to our opinions.

Do you actually believe they would invest moving an attraction.. that was originally built very cheap by reusing all the original infrastructure of the previous attraction?

Stitch is what it is.. because of Alien Encounter.. which was that way due to Mission to Mars.

No, no one believes they would actually incur the expense of moving (or rebuilding) the attraction.

Fair enough, I can understand. I may not agree, but as you said, we're all entitled to our own opinions. :D

There are rumors that Universal Studios Florida may get a shortened version of Wicked. Especially since they just green lit the movie version.

Does anything sell well on DVD anymore?

I'm really curious about this, too.

Who out there is still buying DVDs? I watch everything online now on Amazon or Netflix or Hulu. We have all kinds of movies on demand with our cable too. The only DVDs I'd ever think about buying are for older movies that are not on streaming yet.

I'd much rather have a digital copy than to have a DVD laying around for the cat or dog to get ahold of.
