DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

[RSoxNo1]

Overall, this was probably one of the better (though not perfect) outcomes. Hollywood Studios' roster of attractions increases and a dated Rock 'n' Roller Coaster is finally updated. Of course, it's sad to see MV3D go, but I think more concern should be about how timeless the "team up with music's biggest stars" portion of Rock 'n' Roller Coaster will feel as it ages.

I wouldn't be surprised if the team up doesn't feature on screen representation of every musician who's songs may be in rotation. That makes it easier to add and subtract. It's far less likely that Kermit gets cancelled.

Have you guys noticed a new trend???

"At least the bears are still here in some way..."

"At least the muppets are here in some way..."

Next one: "At least Figment is here in some way..."

Don't we already have the "at least Figment is still here in some way" version?

I guess we can’t be too surprised anymore after they crammed Tiana into Frontierland

But felt the need to redistrict it in Disneyland to Bayou Country instead of saying it's part of New Orleans square...

I watch all of his videos and am a fan and this was a big letdown. He was **absolutely sure** and assured his audiences that his sources were ironclad and this was 100 percent going into Animation Courtyard and I believed him. He probably should have hedged a bit.

And to be clear, I don't think he's a shill, and I agreed with his Tiana's reviews, and generally agree with most of what he produces. This was just surprising because, again, he was just so sure.

Pizza Rizzo is the largest QSR in the park and operates half the day.

Where am I going to get my $12 crappy Dollar Tree quality personal size frozen pizza at DHS now?! Oh wait, Catalina Eddie’s! We’re saved!

It's called IP Brand Synergy.

Yeah. We know what it is called. The danger without much moderation and effort is it diminishes both sectors of the brand.

Visual guide for the DHS timeline (so far) and general WDW & UOR timeline. This is just my best estimate. I know Disney builds slow, but they can build fast when needed to, and I think this 10-year plan will done at a rather quick rate.

Well done on th details. More later, but you are missing a big one for Uni 2028.

Who knows?

Remember when they were going to change the country bears to some toy story puppet show and Tom and team forced then to change direction?

Maybe Tom and team can do it again.

AFAIK among LL rides at DHS, Star Tours is the worst offender among E-tickets not pulling its weight.

TOT in Tier 2 is what keeps people from rioting when they get multi pass.

High schooler here. When I told my friends about this this morning, they all knew who the Electric Mayhem are. Only a couple had heard of Aerosmith, and even fewer actually liked them.

High schoolers should be tall enough to Rock'n Roller Coaster.

Time to move Star Tours to Tomorrowland. I'm only half joking.

 

[Disgruntled Walt]

Had a busy morning here in the classroom...just thought I'd check in and see wha----oh Good Lord. Let the further disgruntling begin.

A year and a half ago, I made the suggestion in another thread that they move Muppets to Sunset Showcase. This better happen.

Not happy at all right now.

I think such a versatile ride system could be reused for another IP that WDW would like to feature.

 

[dennis-in-ct]

What do you mean, "courtyard earmarked for something bigger?"

Fingers crossed that Zootopia takes over the animation courtyard

 

[celluloid]

The closures in the meantime in a park that needs more is likely to diminish more than the replacements will provide and please based on recent retheme minimal efforts.
The modern Disney theme park prob to rush the investments in a nutshell.

Mmm.... Expansion plots.

 

[Blobbles]

Mmm.... Expansion plots.

Homer have you been up all night eating expansion plots?
I think I’m blind…..
I am the only one thrilled by this.

Like Body Wars!
But yeah, for sure.

Hey now, DisTwitter will assure you that Disney never intended to replace the Country Bears or the Tiki Room, that's why they publicly called out WDW.NT instead of ignoring them like they do with every other rumor that's ever talked about! It totally wasn't going to happen. Don't look at the concept art that was posted online, that doesn't count!

(/s just in case)

That said, it's far too late to save the Muppets. It would take an act of God for things to change.

Ugh, I’m a Simpsons fan, and I want them to stay out of the parks.

We are! Most of my friends haven't been to WDW though as I live in Virginia

They drove a dump truck of merchandising money up to imagineerings house. They aren’t made of stone.
