Speaking of Whitmire, when are we gonna see Bean Bunny again? I feel like it's been ages since he's made an appearance anywhere.Perhaps it's been taken offline to be De-Whitmired.

My point though is that when talking actual park attendance, "First Click" is basically worthless.

Oh, and I was told that a projector bulb burned out.
The projector was slated to be replaced with a digital upgrade so they didn't have a spare bulb, but they do have the new projector. They hadn't slotted in a brief closure to replace the projector yet, and they decided that instead of getting a new bulb overnighted, they would just go ahead and install the new projector before the GMR goes down for the count.
The digital upgrade is preparing the theater as the "Feature Film Preview Theater". That is why the Muppet*Vision name can be removed from the new marquee.

That's a damn shame. I was really seeing this event as a plus for the muppets theater and show, but if thats true i am worried for the future. IF the show gets replaced, i wonder what the chances are that it is updated with a new muppets show.

The theater was already upgraded from film to digital a few years ago.

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
I can; but I don't feel the need to every three seconds. You?

That is what I thought, but apparently there is a new projector and system upgrade for the Movie Preview thing.
I don't think Muppets is "leaving". But I do think the plan is limited time previews where Muppets won't be playing.

I disagree.
Scenario 1: One guy goes to DHS then hops to Epcot.
Scenario 2: One guy goes to DHS all day. A second guy goes to Epcot all day.
Attendance is obviously higher in scenario 2, i.e. two guests instead of one. But without First Click, both scenarios would report attendance of 2.

Really love the concept emerging more and more of having venues like this be multi-functional.
Also, that they continue upgrading systems as tech advances. TDO for the win.

Hmmm, not sure I like that sound of this. Given the way things have been going lately I wouldn't be surprised if one day it simply didn't reopen as Muppets...
Would be nice if they're going to do this they arranged it so every other show was Muppets or something?

And eventually no Muppets at all while Iger's latest hot Movie IP plays in the theater

I do get tired of the necessity of constant repetition while every one chases the D23 squrrels

It's about that way at DLR already.
All these "happenings" to the MuppetVision theater... in the grand scheme of things; is this cause for celebration or cause for worry?

I wouldn't worry....yet. But a hit Muppet movie/tv show/viral campaign would help.
