Is the clock ticking on the Sorcerer Mickey Hat icon at the Studios? YES!

[LAKid53]

What does LMA stand for?

Lights, Motion, Action. The stunt show that I never saw because I thought it had closed several years ago.

Local 6 Theme World: Sorcerer's Hat to be removed from Disney's Hollywood Studios

Jinx

 

[DocMcHulk]

Sounds like it's official!

"Originally, it was to be temporary. But temporary lasts a long time at Disney. "
LMAO!

I would have been significantly more excited about this if I hadn't just seen Annabelle at the actual chinese theater 2 weeks ago. It's less exciting when you realize the chinese theater is just a regular old movie theater these days and not the icon we East Coasters/WDWFans dream it up to be!

That's sad to hear. I saw My Fair Lady at the theatre when I was a kid - it was something....

What does LMA stand for?

Lights, motors,… And it's not long for this world.

Wow! If that darn hat is being removed than absolutely anything is possible!!!! Woot!

This is awesome news, provided they don't put up something else in its place.

Since there are now so many announcements of closures, as well as the demise of the BAH and the presence of Disney execs in the park, should we be expecting an announcement soon about the changes coming to DHS?

I asked this very same question to a very good friend of mine.... I was told "don't get your hopes up"


So no. I would not expect any announcements anytime soon. I believe Disney has learned their lesson from the avatar disaster. I don't believe they will actually announce what they are doing until they've already started doing it.

There will also be a new seperate charge event to go with this:

Each guest will get to spend an hour with a crowbar to help the demolition, and after 60 minutes get to keep a piece of the hat and earn a cupcake for their effort.

Cost is $499 per adult.

Quick question, since you're actively quoting someone, can you name the spokesperson?

You may have been answered already, but WKMG attributed the quote to Bryan Malenius.

Does this mean I will get my wish of a Star Wars land that will put HP at Uni to shame?! Please, please?

 

[jimbo mack]

Will not miss the hat..but very intrigued of what's to come for DHS.

 

[RSoxNo1]

Heard an interesting rumor for GMR.

Premise: you are attending the red carpet premier of a GotG sequel and through the use of the LPS guided ride system and extensive 3D screens you are sucked into the action.

Sounds like Disney may finally be taking on The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man.

That sounds more like a "Studios" idea then an idea that would be used for a park that's moving away from that concept. Also, it would be an odd spot for a random Marvel attraction unless more is coming.

 

[FettFan]

Well he said that you would be attending a premier of a sequel, and then get sucked into the action. So that theater is the perfect themeing for attending a movie premier.

So....Last Action Hero: The Ride

I would pay this.

So happy the hat is leaving. It was such an eyesore and quite frankly, as a central location it offered horrible views for fireworks...but maybe thats just a DHS problem.

 

[LAKid53]

I would pay this.

I'd go just to get a piece of the Hat if Disney decided not to locate it, but with a tear in my eye...

 

[sshindel]

How is Disney getting away with using Guardians in the park? I thought Universal had exclusive Marvel rights.

Quick! Someone summon Brother Maynard for his quarterly reading of the Holy Universal/Disney Contract of Antioch

It sounds pretty "Hollywood" to me. So if the park became "Disney's Hollywood Adventure" or something like that, then it would fit perfectly.

So....Last Action Hero: The Ride

Never been on that, but maybe?
