High School Musical Transferring
- Thread starter Epcot82Guy
- Start date
I swear someone in the entertainment placement department needs to be fired if this is true. (and, thanks for the info). This entertainment venue is proving popular. That means it could be a small draw. So, where do we place it? On a dead end off a dead end street that is already crawling with people?!? Furthermore, near the two signature attractions, both of which are not rideable by at least 30% of HSM's target audience and who are rideable by a significant number of guests that may find HSM a bit more than grating on the ears.
We have an entire half of the park that does not see nearly as much foot traffic that could use a boost. We have a large entry way that could use a nice spark ala the Castle Forecourt shows. Now, if this becomes a travelling show that goes from RnRC up to the main hub similar to what DCA's does, that's fine. But, a permanent placement at RnRC just seems like an entire waste of an opportunity.

I agree the location they are thinking is just basicly a diaster waiting to happen, I mean people are trying to get through to get to the rides and they have to wait for the show to end in order to get in line for RnRC, O that'll go over like a lead ballon! In addition to that I mean Im sure someone is going to end up getting hurt by trying to get through the crowd to one of the ques, and thats just what disney needs more bad pub..." This just in a little (insert gender here) was trappled by another MGM vistor at the Disney Park today, the child was just trying to enjoy their fav. attraction at the park the HS Musical show!" If they do this I'll be sitting on pins and needles waiting to hear about the latest in a row of diasters!

Frankly, I find the singing and overacting to be awful.
But I'm not a tween, and I know that my tastes have definitely changed since I was in HSM's target audience.
Parents also like the fact that HSM presents what is possibly the most wholesome high school EVER since "Leave It to Beaver."

I know this is a bit of an old post, but I have new info. There are postings around MK and other parks looking for drivers for the HSM float at WDW. Guess it's going to be a lot more like CA's than we thought!

I saw the HS Musical show yesterday. It was what I expected: high energy songs from the movie. The kids seemed to really enjoy it. While it makes more sense for it to be at MGM than to be in TL, I'm thinking that there are way too many shows over there already. I'd prefer that they use the real estate occupied by ABC theater and Sounds Dangerous for a dark ride or two.

I completely agree with you - minus the singing part. I think everyone in the movie can sing, and for that reason, I like the soundtrack, but I think the acting is horrible and the plot line is so sickeningly saccharine that it makes me crazy :hurl: . But yeah. My 5 year old nephew and 8 year old cousin love it. But I don't really understand the craze behind it.
They won't be using that theatre for the show, it's going to be a traveling show similar to Blood, Sweat, and Shears. Most likely on a flat bed truck.

I agree with both posts quoted. HSM belongs in The Studios...but not in the theater....use the theater for a ride.

Well I was first introduced to this whole HSM thing on the Christmas Day Parade yesterday and it was exactly what I was expecting.....totally not for me. That's fine though. It is popular enough among the kiddies where it deserves a decent little show at MGM for a couple of years.

How are you so sure?
That's another reason why you should never trust or believe Corrus. He is NOT an insider with info, so please don't pay any attention to him!

Here are the results from my friends
25% Like It 75% Hate it So Disney won't do the ride. Maybe instead if they did they would close it down and replace it with Kingdom Hearts.Maybe they can have a ride or two about Kingdom Hearts.
