DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

[ToTBellHop]

In fairness the Diagon project got two rides.

We all can argue back and forth on whether inter park transportation counts, (and we have been for a decade) but I agree that a “land” really needs more than one attraction. Even the EU WWoHP has a show. Perhaps the playground is supposed to be an attraction?

Maybe they can fit a monsters-skinned TriceraTop Spin!

Do you know what this unannounced project will possibly be? And is it something worth losing mv3d for?

If you want to know when you’re being lied too…the gateway words in the sentence are “unannounced” and/or “phase 2”

When someone tells you who they are…believe them

My fear is Sci Fi Dine in gets replaced with Harryhausen’s. That’s a bigger blow than Muppets to me.

The concept art looks to me like it’s taken from the POV of the purple circle. Harryhausen’s would be blue (sci fi) and the door coaster would be the red.

I think you are right. If they did update it (I hope not), maybe they will show clips from the real Ray Harryhausen's movies.

"The restaurant is named after the famous stop-motion animator Ray Harryhausen. Such noticeable examples of Harryhausen's work include films like The 7th Voyage of Sinbad (1958), Jason and the Argonauts (1963), The Valley of Gwangi (1969), The Golden Voyage of Sinbad (1973), and Clash of the Titans (1981)."

Harryhausen's

This article is about the fictional restaurant in Monsters, Inc.. For the upcoming restaurant at Disney's Hollywood Studios, see Harryhausen's (Disney's Hollywood Studios). Harryhausen's (pronounced HAIR-ree-HOW-zinz) is a Japanese restaurant in Monstropolis in the 2001 Disney•Pixar animated...

Lands should have a minimum 4…for two reasons: customers can’t be in multiple places at once…so it naturally helps crowd flow

And second, it allows to refurb or replacing the individuals without it causing a 3 year headache park wide.


We…the people..:we’re stupid when we started celebrating “mini lands” as coined by TWDC…and unfortunately Comcast has followed suit.

You do know that is to stress the customer and skimp on employees, right?

That right there...speaks volumes, many seem to not understand.

Little did we know this whole time the Muppets were just Monsters trying to capture laugh energy (There are worse backstories for an attraction)

It's still "Hollywood Studios" so there is a little more free rein in allowing IPs to mix together. Just look at the Echo Lake area with Indy and SW next to each other. And Muppets just beyond SW.

It's a civil war behind the scenes, I'm advising everyone to stock up on canned foods and shotguns.

 

[Spideeey_24]

Hello everyone! I’m new to the forums, so bear with me

My biggest hope if Monsters is replaced Grand Ave is that Disney heard all of the backlash about MuppetVision closing down and just move it where Lighting McQueen is at and put the film on Disney+

But hey, Disney has disappointed me before

 

[lazyboy97o]

Once again, they're not replacing the only ride that has Darth Vader, arguably one of the, if not the most iconic villain in cinema, at the Star Wars park.

They spent $1 billion dollars on a Star Wars land that specifically didn’t have Darth Vader in the Star Wars park. They also got rid of the Darth Vader meet and greet. One small bit in Star Tours that isn’t even seen by every rider isn’t enough to save it.

Realistically, I can’t see Mermaid leaving yet, so in AC, it would feel more like a ride than a land. And they would keep that dead end in the park. At this point, I’d rather they wait until they have a concept large enough to justify clearing out everything back there to connect to Sunset Blvd. And they apparently do have such a concept.

Any hints?

That honestly could work!!!

 

[JohnD]

If this does go into Muppets Courtyard, they must have plans for Animation Courtyard too... right? RIGHT?!? I mean, it's not Cars and not villians... so... Zootopia? Incredibles? Something else?

I suspect we'll see the Muppet Vision film "preserved" on Disney+...

HS is one park I'd be fine with Zootopia taking over an area like AC. Just not AK. (I'm good with a 3D movie that you have to make an effort to get to underneath TOL, though.)

 

[Tha Realest]

You have to love the thought process at WDI:


“We need to build something in MK that’s surrounded by green space.”

“Okay, but we’re going to have to reroute a river.”

“Better yet - let’s remove it altogether!”

“Sold. Okay, next - Hollywood Studios. Let’s drop that Monsters ride into Animation Courtyard.”

“Whoa whoa who - where is Bob from accounting going to work and park?”

 

[JustInTime]

So I am only hearing Muppets. Has anyone heard if it’s still Star Tours too?

I don't think so. They'd have to close/retheme the Tap House also. Those are staying.

Star Tours is safe

 

[Captain Barbossa]

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

Ah, Tom.

What inside scoop does Cruise have?

 

[Disnutz311]

Little Mermaid show is not really and excuse to why Monsters can't go in Animation courtyard. Move the entrance and put up a wall and it can run for 3 years while they build Metropolis. Then it could turn into Laugh Floor for instance.

Star Tours is safe

Thank you!
