News Sunset Showcase Permanent Entrance

[Disney Analyst]

The facade is almost done, you’ll be entering Philarmagic from here pretty soon.

It looks good. Now if they could just fix the Hyperion's facade; that'd make me a happy camper. (Obviously unlikely at this point, but I can dream.)

That's cool. Thanks for sharing this.

My deepest wish for DCA isn't that they fix Pixar Pier or return Tower of Terror. It's that they bring Hollywood Land up to the level of Buena Vista Street so that it feels like one continuous experience.

Wonder where that puts the Award Weinet’s seating...

Looks like it's sadly been removed. What a tragedy.

So it basically confirms that Philharmagic is just another temporary show that can be easily swapped out for a movie preview.

Chalk this up into me reading into things way too much, but this is a natural step in repurposing the backlot.

So what's happening with the old/current Sunset Theater entrance?

I have a feeling you're wrong. I think it's an obvious attempt to bring more traffic to a theater that has basically failed to draw crowds since that one time they had a lame Frozen show. Put the main entrance on the street rather than inside that weird backstage area and more people might notice it.

 

[Kram Sacul]

More people will experience discount Philharmagic.

So this street has four theaters on it. What is it Broadway?

No, it's Hollywood Boulevard.

that one time they had a lame Frozen show.

Hey! My 5 year old girl loved that show! It was awesome to relive the songs of Frozen for the 832nd time. Really. It was cute. And the show had fake snow. And songs. And Elsa. And songs. And the songs, songs, songs, songs......

*shudder*

Ok, sorry, I really should just LET IT GO.

Am I allowed to post this tweet?

I don't know if you're allow, but I like how that looks.

Also didn't someone ask where Awardweiners seating was going to be? I believe its to the right of this new entrance, its just a smaller seating section now.

Here’s another tweet.

I like the sign, I like putting the entrance for the theater on the main strip, and I like that maybe it means we're one step closer to bulldozing the backlot and making something worthwhile back there.

 

[Phroobar]

So when are they going to rotate in Muppetvision 3D?

 

[Disney Analyst]

They must have wanted to see how it looked at night?

This is the best change to DCA since Grizzly Airfield.
