I agree with you except for Strange being forgettable. I think he’s one of the more interesting characters.
For instance the MCU version of Strange is far more interesting than MCU Hulk, who is far more iconic.

MCU Strange is a poor man's Tony Stark, but I was more talking about the film than the character. Though I have little love for the character either.

I'd say it's one of, if not the, most visually interesting MCU film.

I cant think of any reason to retime to strange. Only reason for it: They own the IP Against it: Expensive and convoluted redo; the ride is already popular and adding Strange doesn't;t do anything; the rights for TZ aren't all that much; CBS would probably work with Disney (new merchandise!) for the reboot [since Disney won't really be a competition for CBS AA, I can see that); and finally it wouldn't fit in with the theme of the area. RnRC is off to one side, but ToT basically towers (sorry) over the whole area
I'd bet it's going seasonal. It's only ever open until 4PM anyway and nobody is ever there.
It's unfortunate since they just rethemed the place, but it makes business sense since the place is completely empty most of the time.

They won't be going away yet. DHS will need all the capacity it can have for when SWGE opens.
That is unless they plan on throwing something new in there quickly beforehand. They would have virtually all of 2019 to close it, remove Muppet theming and change to something else if they really wanted to. Removing Muppet theming from PizzaRizzo wouldn't be hard either because they barely put any in there. It was all very subtle.

If that were ever true, I'd start selling pitchforks...

Cost cutting since DHS doesn't get 10k guests in the park most days.
And you can feel it while you are in the park. There's just nobody there.

I agree I like the atmosphere there, but the way you described it is exactly why it's closing. Mediocre/bad food and it's so empty it's become someone's "escape"
I remember when it used to be hard to find a seat here when it was Pizza Planet. Now it's hard to find other people inside at times. Eerily quiet.
Yea, the last place I described as my escape was Satu’li Canteen at breakfast time, and we all know how that ended up.I agree I like the atmosphere there, but the way you described it is exactly why it's closing. Mediocre/bad food and it's so empty it's become someone's "escape"

They should just have the Via Napoli folks run the place.
Wouldn't be a terrible choice, but I think Blaze Pizza operating and making the food under whatever name Disney wants to put on the place would be easily the best solution.
