Personally, you are as much an insider as most here, if you hear things, I think you should post it, you could always caveat it as what you heard...

Whoopsies. I got a bit carried away with muppetvision maybe closing. Guess everyone has their “not as popular-necessarily a big e ticket but one you would love and defend with their entire life” attractions (bears and muppets for me personally. Three cabs is up there too).
I feel like you could, you’re a proper rumor mill news reporter (hope I got it right lol) with a mix of others, I agree with phinchin as a caveat. I think it’d be ok, but I’m not telling you if you SHOULD. I’d like it, but it’s up for you to decide.

I hope it’s stuff that will make us happy instead of angry.
I hope I instead make you all confused as a middle ground.

do we know if TWDC is legally required to keep at least one Muppets attraction in the parks?

we should get more muppet stuff in parks lol. Not really an attraction but I’d love kermitzilla to come back as a meet and greet.
Nah.

What other Marvel characters can they use in Florida?
I feel like Doctor Strange would be a good draw.

They own them outright so I doubt it.
With WDI having full control of Muppets, and Gen Z loving those guys, I feel like it’s safe for now

One more thing to add is that Star Tours got Mando and Andor a few months back. So they aren’t ready to toss it out yet.

Tbh I do feel it’s time is coming. It changed theme parks forever, but with all the more advanced simulators, it’s kinda short on the clock imo. I don’t think it’s there in 10 years at wdw

God I hope so. But I’m not sure if they want to.
Plus, (don’t want to make this about Splash) but killing another one of Baxter’s babies might not be something WDI wants to do. Unless they keep the one in Cali

Does this Doors coaster rumor happen to come with a clone for the Hollywood Backlot at DCA? I’m more than fine with Avatar going into backlot / expansion area but in my ideal world they’d turn the backlot into Monstropolis and the doors coaster in the expansion area. Then Avatar would go in the Simba lot. I’d love a new themed coaster at DLR and there’s a lot of reasons Disney should consider it.
1. DCA has a grand total of two family friendly dark rides at the park. Would be a shame for the Avatar expansion to be a “lateral” move in this regard. You’d have to lose the Monsters Inc dark ride.
2. Monstropolis would feel much more natural in this section of the park and easier to blend in theming with surrounding area/ lands.
3. Don’t have to do anything with the Monorail
4. Quicker way and relatively cheap way to get some more bodies in DCA and more specifically that part of the park. At least in comparison of what Avatar would cost there.
5. Pretty sure Monsters sell a lot more merch than Avatar.
Granted, Pandora with a E ticket boat ride moves the needle a lot more but I think there is a good case to be made for Monstropolis in the backlot. Pandora would work better in the Simba lot.
