Leave it as is would be my guess.I wonder what happens to grand avenue if they decide against muppets as the spot. Do they just leave it as is? Or hope people don’t care as much in a few years?

That seems reasonable.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.
If I’m being honest, if there is a way to update grand avenue while keepingLeave it as is would be my guess.
I think the two options here are:If I’m being honest, if there is a way to update grand avenue while keeping
MV3D, I’d be down. I think it’s kinda bland sans muppets.
I agree but I could see Disney removing the track (which is already in tough shape) but re-using the building for something else. I say this because the Monsters land looks quite big and if they can reuse any buildings for any purpose (ie the cars show which will probably end and the brown derby backside) I think they could and would want too.They could truly not know though as the report states.
I think it's pretty unlikely Rock is involved if it goes in Animation Courtyard. Rock is a sit down launched coaster, this is a suspended coaster.
Epcot. Then studios.Remind me, where was TRON thought to have been placed? The speedway?
I agree it blends betters. In my mind, all they need to do is somehow move the muppets and they’re golden.I agree but I could see Disney removing the track (which is already in tough shape) but re-using the building for something else.

I do think Montropolis blends better with the Grand Avenue / Commissary area but think that why touch that area when its find and animation courtyard sucks.
Woah, I don't remember that. CrazyEpcot. Then studios.
I agree. I also could see in 2026 them having some shorter term things that need to be done from adding drones to shows, nighttime show for AK, repaint the castle, the Mando update for smugglers, etc.That seems reasonable.
That really leave 2026 as the wildcard year. While no major projects can be done by then, I think updates to Carousel of Progress and Journey to Imagination would fill in nicely for 2026.
There have been “debates”. Tron was a good one.
Isn’t the story behind the tree of life that an ant planted a magical seed… I guess they don’t care about that anymore eitherHS 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.)
Yeah it’s a pretty pointless space. Just the last gasp of the old streets of America with the tap house and muppets thrown inIf I’m being honest, if there is a way to update grand avenue while keeping

The one place i could see it move is magic eye, but i worry that because figment is kinda dead rn, and that the fact that it’s in a new random spot, is that muppetvision would kinda bring in no people as opposed to a lot where it is nowYeah it’s a pretty pointless space.

Depends on how you define “popularity”
California guests don’t flock to 3d films like they do in Florida - they literally beg guests to come to philharmagic at DCA but it still packs them in at MK.
Yeah I think this is a unique situation where we have conflicting concept art, and no official word on the direction they are going. There seems to be a lot more going on than is apparent from the outside.Perhaps the key difference here is that this debate is taking place after concept art has been released. It was pretty obvious where TRON was going once art was released, right?
I happened to be looking at the new stuff in the Imagineering Pavilion with Jim...

I would disagree simply because it's organizationally shortsighted. Unless Star Tours is also not long for this world, it makes a lot more sense to cluster the Pixar properties and redevelop Grand Avenue later with something that better bridges the gap between Star Tours and Galaxy's Edge. I would personally love to see it folded into a Lucasfilm Studio area, perhaps with a slight Shanghai / China Town makeover, replacing a restaurant with Lao Che's Club Obi Wan from Indiana Jones and moving anything IJ or Star Wars (outside the Galaxy's Edge timeline) here.I agree it blends betters.

I’d personally like an inside out show there to pair with a refurbed imagination. But seeing as they insist on never doing the latter, I guess I’d take any improvement for that pavilion that I can getThe one place i could see it move is magic eye, but i worry that because figment is kinda dead rn, and that the fact that it’s in a new random spot, is that muppetvision would kinda bring in no people as opposed to a lot where it is now
I’d be down for that too. My Thoughts were just retheme mama Melrose to muppets, and put a Jim Henson museum in the old store.I would disagree simply because it's organizationally shortsighted.
