Also, it’s pretty clear this isn’t a coaster with extensive dark ride elements. It’s a coaster in a box with a few screens.

It’s a very, very weird choice post Cosmic Rewind and Tron. Sort of plucking the old project the fandom desired in a very different WDW “menu”. Why WDW got two coasters and a pseudo terrain “coaster” out of D23 suggests decisions were made in a vacuum.
DHS needs water and no height and kinetic energy rides.
That said, in a vacuum I’m sure I’ll like the ride.

If Muppets end up on chopping block is Star Tours gone as well?Great! Then there is still hope Muppets will stay

Someday. You could lump Star Tours and the Indy stunt show together for a decent sized land.

Never made sense to me why Muppets were not removed when SWL was built so you could have had SW stuff straight thru and changed Muppets with anything Sw related & placed Muppets elsewhere

I think it’s not anymore, this ride system has been master by Mack. Arthur at Europa Park barely have any down time but It might be thanks to operation.
WDW can’t even run correctly a Flume Ride from the 90s so I would understand the concern and reluctance.

Pretty clear in what way? Has more concept art come out and I missed it?

No. I just think people are trying to manage their expectations based on Disney's track record.

There’s a reason they’ve only sold three. Universal was set to build multiple of them, including Hagrid’s, but they walked away with only the one in Beijing actually being built.
Art, ride system, model…

I too think it will literally just be a suspended coaster in a warehouse. That said, if they just literally cover all the walls of the warehouse in doors and have a mess of fake tracks with doors (at least one circuit moving) and perhaps some doors also hanging from the ceiling it is both incredibly low effort and yet will be good enough and different enough.
They have weird permission this time to make the warehouse look like an actual warehouse. Because the inner walls of the show building are meant to be seen. As opposed to trying to darken it to obscure nothing is really there.
The concept art probably summarizes the entire ride. Likely one nice pre-show. Load will likely be themed to the scare floor. One set of figures of our character with probably low fidelity. Lucky if we have a second and third (Randall). Which I'm weirdly ok with, they can both phone this one in and still make it actually pretty good.

Honestly, the queue is where I hope for some good AAs. Anything complex would be wasted on the ride itself.

Hopefully they don't bring over the dark ride from DCA, unless it's vastly improved. It's still using some of the basic remedial animatronics from Superstar Limo.

That’s a great dark ride! Much better than mermaid, or frozen imho.

I’d much rather have that basic dark ride with reused figures than what we’re getting. Of course, they have the Tokyo version, but Disney doesn’t consider its guests to be worth that kind of expenditure.
Yes, I’d accept a coaster-in-a-box with minimal grumbling… if it wasn’t replacing one of the wittiest and most charming attractions in Disney history.
Honestly, I’m kind of excited for the two Dinoland replacement rides, but everything else Disney has announced sounds tremendously uninteresting. That’s an unusual reaction from me, because (with the exception of Tron) I almost always have SOME interest in new additions even if I hate that they’re replacing something.

While most people think the Muppetvision theater will be repurposed into some sort of laugh floor like attraction, is it possible they might be eyeing some sort of C-D ticket dark ride for the spot as well?

I’d much rather them put Monsters in the Animation Courtyard and NOT destroy Muppets.
