News Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

[The Leader of the Club]

My thing with Monsters replacing Muppets is that completely boxes in Galaxy’s Edge. I assumed that they left Muppets as an option to potentially expand Star Wars’s presence. Losing Muppets for something unrelated to Star Wars means that Galaxy’s Edge is likely the only Star Wars experience we’ll see until they find a way to expand into the parking lot (or figure something out to do with the Star Cruiser).

I'm ok with that.

I don't think they need to demolish anything in the Muppets area. They might be able to get away with something like this.

This is actually my preference. We can still retheme Meleose to HarryHausen’s if we have to, since it is between lands now.

Heck, I’d even be okay with replacing Stage One with a Flat Ride. Just don’t touch MuppetVision

The problem with that is it's a very small pathway for what will be undoubtedly be a popular land and will create another dead end.

It’s pretty similar to Ratatouille though

Let’s leave Mama Melrose alone and retheme Pizza Rizzo to be HarryHausens. No reason why the restaurant can’t be a quick service Japanese place like they have in EPCOT.

This is a good point, best I can think of is having guests exit through the Christmas shop, they'd have to build a back entrance.

While Universal is heading full steam ahead on their new park, Disney can’t decide where to put 1 ride!

Plans in EU have been regularly shifting. Nix a theater for a family coaster. Hold off on a second Potter ride. Move around restaurants.

Full steam ahead means a few of the box cars fall off.

At least Uni can make decisions quickly. Disney seems to take the design by committee approach which takes 19373626616363 years to complete and produces a mediocre result which lacks the creative vision to please anyone while simultaneously offending everyone.

They just announce everything earlier, which makes it look less stable when it’s probably the same amount of stable.

They announce so early out of desperation. They have so little that they actually build and when they do build something, it’s never a home run anymore. They’ve lost their touch.

Wrong on first as another mentioned, imaginary speculation on the second

Even if it were the case they can't decide, that's better than blind decisions. What exactly would be wrong with Disney taking more time to evaluate options?

You need to read up on some Disney history if you think the pace of building has always been faster and the results were always amazing...

Is Uni not going full steam ahead? Have you not seen the aerials?

There’s obviously conflicting concept art. They claim that this is a green-lit project, so why no details?

Their decision making process is defective. It takes too long and arrives at compromises that please nobody.

I think most of their new attractions in the past are awesome. Starwars, pandora, guardians, Tron. They are awesome! No?
I’ll give you Tiana, but I think at least one of the people responsible for Tiana and the Epcot debacle are no longer in the company.

Anyway just got back from Dis and Universal. I’ll say this, Universal isn’t exactly making proper investments in their current parks. I mean some of their rides were in a Six Flags type of condition, especially that flume ride. That thing is gross. You think DreamWorld land and that other recent stand up shooter thing are good additions???

It’s because I have read my Disney history that I know they can do better. Their current leadership is inept.

Each attraction you mentioned is good, but not a home run. Not trying to nitpick, but each one has its own quirk that snaps defeat from the jaws of victory. Whether it’s that the ride is too short or that it replaced something beloved. They just can’t seem to expand their parks in creative ways like they used to. Everest was their last expansion that checked every box as awesome. Since then, each new ride has had some kind of drawback it can’t atone for.
