Monsters, Inc. Hollywood Studios rumor

[DisneyParksFan1]

Yeah the rumor is a family coaster. At one point in time this was the concept.

Monday Mouse Watch : Get ready for WDW's monstrous new coaster

Very well said! I myself also tend to support Jim. Love your show BTW!:wave:

Which building?

Soundstage 1 between Pixar Place and Backlot Tour.

It says Hot Set.

I'm in the minority here. I could care less if this happens. I just hope ST2 is good and another ride that has an original story.

I hope this doesn't happen however. I want some more original story telling in the studios.

Ahh, so the Hot Set signs really DID mean something.

Lol yea I mean I guess.

But hey let's hope if they do it, they do it with quality and not make it look cheap. (looking at the TDO building).

Can anyone here confirm whether or not the coaster has been greenlit?

Good to know we're AIMING HIGH! Keep Disney up to those standards of "eh whatever"!

Nope.
Still in a holding pattern last I heard.:shrug:

Hopefully it's not the version we have out here at DCA. Fun the first couple of times but in no way a classic. Hoping you get something more like Tokyo.

Errr... Tokyo's ride is borderline terrible. It has some money in it, sure, but all the money in the world couldn't save a meaningless interactive element, poor vehicle design/capacity, and an utterly senseless "plot," all of which goes by so fast you can't even tell what you're looking at.

I'll take DCA's with a little more cash for better scenery and AA's. ANY day.

Jim Hill just announced the construction of the Monsters Inc. Coaster to be open for the WDW 40th anniversary in the fall of 2011. Does he know what he is talking about, or is it just more rumor? Has anyone else heard anything today?

 

[stphnbogert]

Do you have a link to this story? and i hope its true.

 

[SeaCastle]

That article is a few years old. He has good info, but reports things as more solid than they are. Construction would have to have started a while ago to be even remotely ready by 2011.

 

[stphnbogert]

yeah they'll probably start something for hollywood studios anniversary.

 

[marathonear]

Are you saying that Jim is just reposting a several year old article. Didn't look that way to me, it was posted today, have you been over there to read it?

I don't even see it on his site. I frankly don't care for JH anymore and the fact most of his stories are movie/TV based says a lot about his current contacts in WDI/TDA/TDO.

 

[spaceghost]

The article is from 7/21/08.

 

[stphnbogert]

can someone please post the link to the article. i can't find it =(

 

[marathonear]

My bad, you are absolutely right, I saw it down below his other articles and didn't notice the date. What a bummer, I was excited, now not so much.
