DHS Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

[PorterRedkey]

Again....I don't see why they keep Muppets....

Especially since the show was canceled.

The problem is I really like MuppetVision Threeeeeee-Deee. I love the preshow, I love the film, especially the parts about America. I like bubbles, penguins (no offense), live action Monster, Statler and Waldorf and the explosive finally. I just hate the 3-D character who's name shall not be spoken.

Now that it looks like it is gone forever in DCA it would be a shame to lose Jim Henson last movie.

I've said this before many times, but I don't think you knew this. I don't hate penguins, and my name is not Pam. Pam is a character in Saving Mr. Banks who hates animated penguins. So I decided to name my profile after her dislikes.

Oh, I know, believe me. I was just funning around.

And no, Carsland is not going in DHS, even for phase 3

Okay. Cool...

 

[PorterRedkey]

Okay. Cool...

No offense meant, just a gentle ribbing among friends.

You can make fun of me because I dream of being a billionaire and sponsoring the new updated Horizons pavilion.

Thanks @marni1971 Your drawings make this project more clear to us! Your drawing and my editing skills really make this come alive!

Pretty much. Get rid of the old Stage 4 Pirates building

So is Star Tours not going to be in Star Wars land? Seems like the muppet area is in between, though that doesn't really make sense.

Muppetvision should be in its own isolated courtyard. You won't see much of it unless you go there.

I'd eventually expect Star Tours to be rethemd. Well into the next decade though.

I'm glad the little birds are finally squawking again. It was disconcerting that no one was getting information in line with the increasingly obvious clues. Star Wars has moved and so has the timeline - thankfully! (Or #ThanksShanghai?)

It will be near SWL but it doesn't look like it will be part of it.

They could keep Muppets Courtyard &3D Vision around (for capacity) until Star Wars Land and attractions come online, then close Muppets Courtyard. That area could be expansion for Star Wars Land that eventually would connect it to Star Tours

Maybe long term, but I can't see them doing that short to mid term since they are putting money into re-themeing Pizza Planet.

This drawing makes me realize the massive scale and grandeur of all the rock work that will be in Star Wars land. I expect a "Cars Land wow-factor" when you first see the environment/rocks/buildings all to scale and perspective. Great drawing @marni1971

Good point. They could always retheme it a third time to fit the Star Wars area around it. This would be what, 2020 even at the earliest?

Pizza planet looks like an easy conversion into a certain space port theme someday. Along with the rest of Muppet Square. However I am guessing this is not decided yet.

What the hell do you guys have against the Muppets. It is still a very popular venue with adults and kids. The way they planned it out, it will not even be visible from SWL. It is harming no one and benefiting many. Eventually what is now Star Tours will be re-themed perhaps to something more compatible with the Muppets or the like and all will be well with the world. In the meantime try and keep the knots out of the panties. That can be very uncomfortable. You guys are getting a whole damn land focused on Star Wars which in my opinion is more than plenty. Let's leave something for people with less of a worship of Science Fiction / Adventure.

As of now - and for the foreseeable - there is no reason to suggest this will happen.

It already was a spaceport before they started the re-theme.

When this part of the park was still a working studio, what did they actually do in SS4? It's so small.

It was never a real stage.

Originally it brought the viewing catwalk down from the upper floor to ground level, wrapping around props from "The Lottery".

@marni1971 is there any news on Mama Melrose's future? Will it also get a Muppet makeover?
