News Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

What kind of ride times should we expect?

I think we'll be somewhere in the 2 minute territory.

So basically tron? I like tron! Don’t think it’ll be good for dhs capacity wise, ESPECIALLY with the fact that it’s gonna be on virtual queue for a long time likley.

Ok. Legitimate question. What is going on with so many people who haven't posted for years suddenly becoming quite active since or around this D23? I've looked at a good number of profiles like this in these threads. I'd genuinely like to know, as it just seems very odd.

I enjoy more before because knowing stuff is replacing stuff just hurts my stomach enough is enough it's annoying. I get the parks needs to grow and evolve but why can't they let us be happy and excited for something without half of ourselves being loomy.

Agree with everyone saying this shouldn't be called a "land" especially when we don't know if there is any sort of second attraction planned - I'm guessing there isn't. Based on the configuration of Grand Avenue I think the Monstropolis theming in that area will look a little weird and really compact between Galaxy's Edge and Star Tours. Honestly, might as well just keep MV3D in place on the side and just build the coaster/building that extends into the parking lot and put the sushi restaurant in. Think it'll look tacky either way.

The walking space is very similar to Diagon Alley.

Why is demolishing the stunt show for Monsters not under consideration? It's older, expensive to run, and Indy will have a new home in AK anyway.

Some thought guessing here suggests that in order to get this land up and running quickly that using an area with existing buildings may help speed up the project while reducing some costs instead of building everything from scratch.

Tron is a minute long.

If its officially announced, wouldn’t it be too late?

Well, we know what happened with the Play Pavillion, the Cherry Tree Lane area in Epcot, the Pixie Hollow in MK...

I think some people gloss over 2020 like it didn’t happen.

Us smart and logic folks prefer to talk it out here rather than on YouTube where people just comment I'm done with Disney, or my quiet spot, or it's a theme park. Here we go deeper and point the puzzle in together and our real reactions at the same time take a moment to the side and laugh a little together. ❤

First two were Covid and last was replaced with something better, so…

If they can raise $10 million in a telethon by midnight, maybe they can be saved.

It does feel like we are being "played" a bit in a marketing sense. If I were in Disney Experiences I would be getting a 8 episode show green lit where the Muppets try and save MV

The things getting cancelled after big announcements and press releases has happened long before and will happen after Covid.

Wdym by “played”? About muppetvision?

Sure, but they won’t be canceling this, Tropical Americas, or Cars. They announced them much closer to construction starting than has been the case in the 2010s. They are budgeted and commence construction imminently. We will see on Villains and things like Incrediblercoaster and Zootopia.

Depends on what you define “well”.

Guardians is excellent across the board.

Slinky is of good length but implemented poorly.

TRON and 7DMT are excellently themed but far too short.

But to the OP point 1-2 omnimover type attractions at DHS would be phenomenal for adding capacity.

Slinky is awesome. A top 5 WDW ride for many. Top 2 for my family.

Just to point out this looks similar to an earlier version of the door coaster. That one fitted inside studio one (which became the TSM 3rd track) and front foyer with a bit more spill.

That was circa 2007-2008 right? Out of curiosity do you know if that build would’ve impacted or shortened the backlot tour?

 

[lightningtap347]

My opinion right now is that if it wasn't Muppets at this point, they would've said it.

I was pretty comfortable at first after asking my friends who work at Muppets and AC the vibes and hearing a lot more noise from leaders in AC. But now, I just think it's Muppets.

 

[fgmnt]

Yes, but there’s no question that is the case. They should have just announced this Saturday. It becomes more problematic to close HoP by the day.

I think if they could go back in time they would have given it a closing date of on or around January 15, 2024

Yes. Something feels off ... which makes me feel its a marketing ploy for something else.

I think it's a poor show quality attraction but as I have shouted a bunch of times into the void, it is a popular attraction at DHS in an outsized way. It's not even really astute business to unshelve the Door Coaster, it's basic supply and demand. Pretty fun imagining the what-ifs of DHS if this got put in where they first wanted it on the TSM 3rd track.
