DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

[ChewbaccaYourMum]

I didn't clock in the parks panel that construction begins in 2025 for this new land.
Tropical Americas begins construction in 2024 and opens 2027
Monsters and Cars both begin construction in 2025, so one will likely open in 2028 (Monsters) and the other in 2029 (Cars?) or both the same year???

If I was a betting man I'd say
2027 - Tropical Americas
2028 - Monsters and Cars
2029 - Villains

I kept seeing on twitter Disney is saying that everything announced will be open within 5 years. As long as that's truly what happens, it makes sense.

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

They're trying everything.

…wait…a…minute…

Shouldn’t take that long…frankly…

They’re also potentially preparing for an unforgettable luncheon

I guess so, but I think it's also very important to factor in that it's good to have something new opening every year if they could. Good for attendance and keeping people coming back. We keep hearing reports of attendance being slightly down. Having something opening every year is good

TC and other sources stating Disney sources says this is going to animation building and Star Wars Launch Bay will be entrance to Monsters Inc LAND

Take it with a grain of salt

So, we’ve discussed in the past how Pete Docter apparently won’t let Inside Out replace Figment. Don’t we think that he, being a lifelong Muppet fan and close friend of Frank Oz, would oppose replacing Muppetvision too? After all he did direct Monsters Inc and is currently in charge of PIXAR?

Dsny says it too

Man this announcement has some credibility on the line (no offense to anyone here, you’re all cool people)

Attendance is down by a “bit”

Recent changes in the dynamics of travelers doesn’t really indicate opening new rides increases draw of new customers or repeats as it did for us in the good old days. It’s cost prohibitive.

They need more…for sure…so the parks don’t stagnate. But I’m not sure anything they do here moves the needle much?

And what “credibility” would that be?

I mean both of the big name people are swearing on their respective positions.

Oh that…

Well…there’s a few ways to look at it:

Lack of quick confirmation via permits cautions the seriousness of it?

And the pattern of late has been “close and replace”…because they’re such clever geniuses…so we’ll watch out for that.

True. I don’t think it’s as set in stone as people are saying. Ik some have also been saying performers at Disney jr have been given an end date, but that’s just rumor speak, so take that with a grain of salt. So I think it could go either way.

The options all seem to indicate replacement:

Animation makes the most sense based on proximity…and knocks out two shows with pesky actors

Muppets is old and they can’t juice demand with it…so that makes sense in Igernonics

The one to watch out for is canning rockinroller coaster (old and will require more overhead as time goes on) and the cars building next to it…I don’t think they’d try it…but you never know?

What I’d love is if they took out star tours and the stunt show. Need to go…but not likely at all.

Ah, Tom.

Can you name it? There are too many amateurs out trying to perpetrate.

Oh wait…bricker?
