News Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

[Disstevefan1]

In typical fashion however Disney is going to take the quickest cheapest way to do something…. Not necessary the right something

I hate to say it.

Destroying Muppets 3D is the quickest/cheapest way
Also, destroying Rivers of America, TSI, and the riverboat is also the quickest/cheapest way

And they will NOT ADD a new Muppets attraction because MONEY.

Also - we say quickest, LOL, this cr@p is AT LEAST 6 years away, LOL

Accurate. Quickest for them anyways is what I should have said lol

They “might” redo HoP and put muppets in there but that would mostly be to solve a problem of theirs and of course not have to make another AA for it soon

Please, please, please don't make Climate change an excuse for these terrible, terrible decisions!!!!!

I was defending Corless statement. How much foot traffic do you think TSI sees from May - October? I bet it’s very little. It’s just too hot. It’s lovely in January though. Disney absolutely needs to rethink outdoor playground type attractions, or do you think it’s a coincidence that the boneyard is also going away with no equivalent replacement?

 

[GhostHost1000]

Either way, that’s an opinion he expressed, versus a factual statement. He’s been largely correct on factual statements based on insider information regardless of whether you agree with his opinions.

And he’s not wrong when he stated on a recent episode that the Florida climate makes TSI a not very attractive attraction for much of the year now. Climate change makes outdoor playground type attractions useless most of the year in Florida. Maybe it was tons of fun 9 months of the year in 1971, but now I know we only visit TSI during our winter trips. I’m sure we’re not the only ones. It’s just too hot to enjoy it otherwise.

It’s Florida, it’s always been hot. A couple of degrees here or there doesn’t make a difference when the humidity levels are already high

I mean, this isn’t the place to talk about the difference in mean high temperatures in the 1970’s in FL versus the 2020’s, and how many super-hot days there are now versus then, so I’ll just leave it.

We agree, everything TWDC does (in their theme park business) is about MONEY!!!!

TWDC's movie business can BURN THROUGH money freely because their movie business is about MESSAGING!!

This has been a day.

I have never seen this amount of conflicting information in regards to a location for a whole land that "already has dirt moving". Disney wouldn't lie to us about dirt already moving, right?

I guess if the wind moves the dirt I guess it's moving...

Because now, somehow again, some words are saying Animation, majority are saying Muppets, one is doing backflips and saying it's some other NEW BUILD expansion plot (WORDS OF THE DERANGED???) Because now I'm here going 'what the heck guys?' because I don't even think Disney knows where it's going!


Want my five cents? They're slipping different answers to different people, since they KNOW it'll end up appearing in the wild, and gauging reaction.

But that doesn't make sense, if they announced it with construction starting next year, why are they still deciding where to build?! Is Disney relying on people panic-buying Muppets merch to fund this?


I wish I liked the taste of alcohol because otherwise I'd be drinking.

Backtracking 100% Muppet odds but I'm hedging it at 80/20 currently in favor of Muppets being removed from Studios. I feel we're getting official word by end of the month regardless.

Well Disney was more like a park setting and had a lot more trees back in the day that helped

90 vs 95 isn’t going to feel any different with the same humidity levels

 

[Nickm2022]

I actually don't care if they rip out muppets it's more if Star Tours and Launchbay outlast muppets that has me annoyed, that said we're getting an entire Monsters land which is a dream come true. Hollywood Studios despetley needs more lands, whether it be the Star Tours / Muppets plot or the Animation courtyard plot, it would still be increasing capacity.

This is all a muppet labs experiment to see how fast it takes to make a Disney fan have a heart attack out of stress.

I may or may not have bought a Muppets pin today thinking “well if it’s going away I might as well get something to remember it by”…

You've just funded them buying enough plywood to make one door prop!

One person is saying it's some other NEW BUILD expansion plot (WORDS OF THE DERANGED???)

Chicken little county bears guy strikes again?

I mean… those pins ain’t cheap!

Exactly -- I love Muppets, its a favorite. But if Launchbay is still here and they start construction elsewhere on a perfectly fine attraction area first - it's just.... dumb?

I hope he is right about Muppets, but according to ChatGPT, his TSI theory is nonsense...

In 1971, the average temperature in Orlando, Florida, was quite similar to what it is today, with a yearly average around 72-73°F (22-23°C).

This would ironically make a great Muppets Labs YouTube short with beaker and honeydew conducting research.

 

[doctornick]

You’re a rational thinker.

You are presumptively not a WDW back of house CM who enjoys premium parking with cool access to DHS and the ability to just hop on a friendship boat or Skyliner to quickly grab lunch at EPCOT.

You are certainly correct. I guess I just don't understand how then can tell DL CMs to pound sound when they are losing their backstage space and need to go to some offsite location but at WDW they are in deference to not disturbing them but are fine with reducing the offerings to paying guests.

It's totally insane.

“Here at muppet labs, we are seeing how much soul crushing we can put parks fans through before they finally stop coming. We have been running this experiment since Mr toads closure in 1997, and we have yet to suceed.”

Ha, good one.
I think the only dirt moving is in Josh D'amaro underwear

Because now, somehow again, some words are saying Animation, majority are saying Muppets

Agee.

one is doing backflips and saying it's some other NEW BUILD expansion plot (WORDS OF THE DERANGED???)

We all wish it was a NEW BUILD as that would be a TRUE EXPANSION and not a "Destroy and Replace"

Because now I'm here going 'what the heck guys?' because I don't even think Disney knows where it's going!

I agree, Disney does not know. I suspect things Disney said at D23; some fraction of that will resemble the truth eventually but no time soon.

Want my five cents? They're slipping different answers to different people, since they KNOW it'll end up appearing in the wild, and gauging reaction.

I think it could be BOTH gauging reaction AND create panic buying.
Do we remember the panic buying related to Splash?

Mix Vodka with a soda you like works for me.

Backtracking 100% Muppet odds but I'm hedging it at 80/20 currently in favor of Muppets being removed from Studios. I feel we're getting official word by end of the month regardless.

I agree with the odds because Disney does not care about their guests
