What If… Season 2 [HYPE THREAD]

[Lord Fozzinator]

So I created a land layout for a new Muppets Courtyard that would consist of the new attraction and a moved Muppetvision.

Here is a further expanded Muppets Courtyard that takes over Rockin N Roller Coaster and Sunshet Showcase.

Posted this on the Muppet*Vision preservation thread, but figured people over here would be supportive of this:

I saw a comment over on Tom Bricker’s site encouraging people to nominate Muppet*Vision to the Library of Congress’s National Film Registry. To qualify for it, a film must be at least 10 years old and culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant. I believe that Muppet*Vision fills all of the above criteria, and I’d like to spread that message here as well, if you agree with this assessment. Thank you, everyone. The link is here:

I fancy myself as a poet. I wrote this free verse poem last year when I was in 10th grade while on a field trip to the theatre.

I Am:

I am fine

I am creaky but sturdy

I am a violent hurricane

I am experiencing ups and downs

I am hot*

I am experiencing a lot, but ain’t that life?

*: It was very hot in the building

Came across this on Reddit and felt like sharing with the class.

@TheOriginalTiki we can’t wait for 1998!

@TheOriginalTiki we can’t wait for 1998!

I would swap out Hollywood Land and Tomorrowland just because Tomorrowland has Space literally keeping its head barely above water whereas Hollywood Land has...a half abandoned walk through and a C ticket dark ride that only gets inflated wait times because of how miserably inefficient Lightning Lane is. I guess Hyperion is the main thing keeping the land afloat right now but that could so easily just get folded into Avengers Campus.

I definitely wonder if Disney plans to bring Monstropolis to DCA. If you think about it, they've essentially got three HUGE warehouses right freaking there between the Millionaire and Muppets buildings and Hollywood and Dine. I wouldn't be thrilled if they went that route, but my God at least it'd be SOMETHING. I've been wondering what the hell they're going to do with the Millionaire building for literal DECADES.

So what’s the next competition in the pipeline? Things are slowing down for me and I could use a positive distraction right now!

I've heard rumors that Pandora will take Monsters, Inc. and the current bus stop.

I'm still planning on doing "1998" in the summer, not sure if we have anything lined up for Spring/early 2025 yet.

A woody themed expansion for Magic Kingdom’s Frontierland. Also why can’t people on Reddit read the title. I said on Reddit that this was a What If Toy Story never went to Hollywood studios, and then someone commented that it doesn’t make sense that an IP is in 2 parks. Also that argument is kinda redundant since Harry Potter is in 2 parks with a 3rd on the way.

Hey folks! First of all I'd like to apologize for not really being present for What If this season. There's no way around it, I dropped the ball twice with SA and this as far as committing to doing podcasts and then not delivering. Based on the amount of activity in the brainstorming thread it feels like this season is a great success though, at least way more active than the first What If season, so a big tip of the hat to Tegan for that!

Part of the reason why I haven't been present is because I got both really sick and had a very bad thrown out back for about three weeks which kept me bedridden. Being bedridden for all that time gave me a lot of opportunity to really get into my own head and reflect on my identity. I don't want to dwell too much on this or make a big show of it, the regulars here like @Tegan pilots a chicken, @PerGron, @Pi on my Cake etc. have all become some of my most favorite internet people over the past year and instead of messaging them all individually about it I figured I'd just rip the band-aid off and make a public announcement. I'm coming out as "gender-fluid". I don't want to put too much time into explaining it but essentially my whole life I've have a feminine side but not one strong enough to make me feel like I needed an entire trans identity. It wasn't "I'm living in the wrong body" more-so "I wish I could express both of the male and female sides of myself."

For a LONG time I genuinely didn't know what the hell to identify as. Trans people unfortunately becoming a big political lightning rod in the last decade made me want to back away from that route since I always knew in my heart that wasn't who I am and I'd feel like an impostor if I truly tried to go down that route (I even made a "coming out" video about being "trans" which I pretty much instantly regretted just because it didn't feel like I was actually being authentic to myself but more-so just desperately trying to identify as SOMETHING)

Honestly it took the Wicked movie of all things conjuring emotions and feelings in myself I haven't experienced since high school mixed with me being bed ridden to really put the pieces together in my head and materialize them through a fully developed adult brain that "gender fluid" actually fits me like a glove. I don't know why I didn't stumble on that realization years ago, but once it clicked I was like "Oh my god, THAT's the missing part of myself I've been searching for all these years." It's been about a week, and I can safely say that week has been the most confident and comfortable in my own skin I've felt in my entire adult life bar none. It takes away so much impostor syndrome I've built up over the years over not being able to put my finger on what I was. Just wanted to share that. I'm still obviously the same person I've always been, and for simplicity's sake I'll still use he/him pronouns, but it feels so good to actually be able to identify this part of myself that's eluded me literally my entire life.

You’re one of my favorite internet peeps too!!
