WWtbaM - Play It!.....what's going on?

[DarkMeasures]

When we were there at the end off April, it was packed. Any reason why it dropped off so quickly?

Most people who attend the show are AP holders. Plus, Millionaire has died off. There is no point in keeping this show, but it should not be closed until a replacement is greenlit.

My family likes this one, and we've never seen the tv show. I've made it on the leaderboard a few times, but never to the Hot Seat! While I wouldn't cry if this went away, I would cry if it went away and was replaced by NOTHING, ah la SuperStar TV.

 

[Thrawn]

Uhm, they are still planning more Super Millionaire shows for the next sweeps period. Show isn't going anywhere.

 

[FamilyMan]

when's sweeps week?

I was just visiting MGM this last Monday. Most of the park was empty - they were not even offering fast passes to ToT or RnRC. I thought it would be a great opportunity to make it to the hot seat at WWtbaM. I've been in the hot seat before and made it to the $64,000 question (anyone want to trade a pin?) Anyway, the show on Monday was about 80% full. On such a quiet day in the park, I thought the show would be a lot less popular. The MGM show might very well outlast the TV show. Don't be so quick to kiss it goodbye.

Roger Rabbit's Hollywood?

I just followed a link from another forum's to disneycorner and saw they had a rumor that Millionair will be replaced by Roger Rabbit's Hollywood. Has anyone ever heard of it?

I just hope it doesn't turn into the Tween Stunt Spactacular.

I never seen Millionaire at the park so I don't care if it stays or goes.

SERIOUSLY DUDE!! i cant wait for the tween stunt spectacular!! I LOVE the kim possible show, that would be SOO cool to see a live version... and they can throw in some dave the barbarian!! and what else?? Mabe like a quick film noir section with filmore! that might work.. like the doug show! synergy for the cartoons!!

They should not take the show out until the actual "show" goes off the air. It is one of the few things that makes the studio park a studio. Not to mention, it is a lot of fun. It is the only attraction in the park that makes it feel like you are in a real working studio.

If they take it out, and don't put anything new in the park, I will only visit for my thrill on ToT and RRC.

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I love WWTBAMPI. We did the show twice on our last trip. The show is still going strong here in the UK.... maybe that has something to do with it?!?!? If they do get rid of it, then I hope there is a replacement attraction waiting in the wings... if not, then lets keep the attraction rather than an empty sound studio.

RNC and ToT are he main attractions....to me Millionare should go..and make some more exciting rides/shows...to me MGM isnt much but the coaster and tower...yah the show is fun...but cmon what does it offer..its the same questions everytime i go

 

[imagineer99]

I say keep the show. It's not like they're dealing with a large amount of real estate. What GOOD ride would actually fit in the place?

Keep it. It's entertaining. It's easy to maintain. Plus, MGM needs as much attractions as they can get.

The Armageddon effects show from DLP comes to mind.

There is no need to lie just because you cant get into the hot seat. the questions are never the same. this is mine and my brothers' favorite attraction in all of WDW. we went to wwtbampi 8 times on our last trip this summer. If they got rid of millionaire any time soon it would be an awful thing. also kevin brassards talents as host would be lost, and that would be a travesty.

Now that would be an excellent replacement. The Studios needs an attraction of that sort.....it really does fit into the movie studio theme.

 

[MrNonacho]

Yeah, he's one of my favorite hosts. Did you catch his appearance as the Indiana Jones stuntman in that one episode of Full House?

 

[Testtrack321]

Am I the only one who thinks Armegedon ride at DSP would be great in that area?

 

[Chape19714]

Were the FP machines re-used over at MK for Stitch? Timing seems about right.

I was gonna say that, seems very logical. I think they could make good use of this space, but it is sad to see it go.

 

[DisneyDefenders]

Meredith and Regis ROCK!

I don't see how anyone here can say that the show is dead!

NBC's "The Weakest Link" went into syndication and soon died out, but Millionaire with Meredith Viera is still going strong!

Also, with ABC getting huge ratings out of SUPER MILLIONAIRE during it's spring season, I think it would be silly to shut down the attraction.

People love the idea of being able to WIN a Disney Cruise! About it not having repeat value...there are very few attractions at WDW that bring people back several times in the same visit, let alone on repeat visits...Who Wants to be a Millionaire - Play It! is one of those!

Olga Campbell rocks and so do the rest of the Florida hosts! Hope the show stays around for a long time to come and that's my FINAL ANSWER!

 

[TheOneVader]

They should replace it with the Armageddon Ride from Disney Studios.

 

[Kristofke]

It's not that good ya know. It really looks great and spectaculair on commercials (so does whole the park on the discovery channel docu, but in reality, the park is verry verry verrrry euh terrible!)

I think I visit the attraction 1 time a year.

WWtbaM is much better then the Armageddon effects show....
