Pizza Planet removed?

[captainkidd]

ah a fellow new yorker, your opinion on the pizza actually matters to me.(no offense to anyone else here but if you eat bagels or pizza in ny and go anywhere else and try to have some you will always be very dissappointed) So the new pizza at the italy pavillion is good? is it like the old brick oven pizza places in Bk?...i know its supposed to be from italy but ive never been there so the old italian delis and pizzerias in brooklyn and queens are as close as ill get for now.

OK if I give an opinion on this? I don't live in NY, but I've visited many times, and had many types of pizza from there, all delicious. If there's a food I've had a lot of in my life, it's pizza. I have to say, hands down, Via Napoli is the best pizza I've ever had. We get the Quattro Formagio with tomato sauce (normally comes as a white pizza.) In the year that Via Napoli has been open, no lie, I've been there 9 times. In February, I'm going 3 times. It is simply unbelievable.

How does Via Napoli work with the DDP?

it would be cool if they turned the current Pizza Planet into a Muppets themed restaurant!

You could make it have a diner theme like in Muppets Take Manhattan (I think it was Petes Luncheonette?!?!)

I definitely think that Pizza Planet needs to be themed like the movie and placed in the Pixar area for it to make more sense.

I just don't see anything Muppets-related being popular with the current generation. What a snooze fest.

Agreed.

It's an arcade with horrible food. Gut it and good riddance.

And Little Green Men from the Buzz Lightyear Float from the old Toy Story Parade hanging on the Celings...How is that creative??

I did find it weird that when woody left and buzz was on the outside, when you went to the ordering area woody was gone as well there but left Buzz standing awkwardly at an angle..

I completely disagree.

I also concur that since the Toy Story Pizza Planet is so far away from Pixar Place, it's time to close it down and convert it into the previously-scrapped Gonzo's Pandemonium Pizza Parlor.

Well they are coming out with the new Muppet Movie in November. So maybe that will introduce new fans.
I'm not so sure how a "Muppet Restaurant" would do though... Could be interesting...
I think moving Pizza Planet would be a wise idea. Move it over to the Pixar section and make Pixar Place more than just Toy Story Mania.

Went to Pizza Planet last year and was disappointed. I would love if they moved it to Pixar Place and made it look exactly like the movies. I want to get my soda pop from an alien's mouth!!

All this talk of making into a Muppets resturant and nobody has mentioned who this resturant deserves to be given to!

 

[cowanfamily]

I would eat Tombstone over Pizza Planet!

That's a good question. I don't know though since I don't use it. They do however accept TIW.

What if it just sets empty??

That would suck...

 

[TestTrack]

I have really bad taste...I like tombstone and the pizza at Pizza planet

 

[olinecoach61]

Pizza Planet, in its current incarnation, SHOULD be removed. How you can build Pizza Planet and not have it look like the Pizza Planet from the movie is beyond me.... refurb please!!!!

Exactly! Good idea poorly executed, and the food is below par.

 

[the-reason14]

Woody andBuzz have been removed from outside! But why is anyones guess!!

I heard long ago that it was to not confuse stupid guest into thinking it was the 'new' Toy Story' ride.

Muppet humor hasn't resonated with a modern audience since Henson passed away. The stuff done under his watch is still just as funny as ever 20 years later.

The movie will determine a lot. If it is a stinker then no way they will commit more real estate to a dead franchise.

 

[Disney TN]

Service is awful anyway

Besides, the pizza is not worth the wait. Build something new.

 

[gators11]

Seriously? I think it's atrocious. You can get the same pizza at Pizzafari, Pinocchio Village Haus and probably several other places I can't think of right now.

You can thank Lee Cockerell for that.
