Disney's Hollywood Studios (General Discussion)

IF we ever get an announcement, no way it's out of nowhere like this. TDO will milk it dry for weeks if not months beforehand.

These are the people who tried to make a spectacle out of benches and advertised a dragon no one will ever see after all.

I just don't see them putting this out now when construction won't start for another year and they have a D23 Expo to fill.

Knowing the way TDO is, this is the announcement we're getting

Cars Land! Coming 2018!!!

Also true. They wanna steal as much money from fans as they can with D23. Plus as thick as they appear to be in the skull, I think they realize they burned themselves with Avatar (the announcement being forced or not).

When is D23?

 

[JungleSkip]

When is D23?

August

 

[Hatetofly]

Ok thanks

Yea that would be waayyyy too far away to do any sort of announcement...with Uni getting ready to announce something regarding Springfield soon and the "unknown" Jaws replacement :look: ...Disney needs to drum up SOME sort of excitement ASAP.

 

[Vyrus]

I would just be happy FINALLY losing Lights Motor Action...what a boring show, although it does serve its purpose as a crowd eater

 

[Vyrus]

You said it yourself, its not good

And for that reason alone its worth getting rid of...same goes for Fear Factor: Live...its just gotta go already

I hate the Backlot "Tour" the most. It is the single most unenjoyable ride in DHS and maybe the whole resort. When that is gone, I will jump for joy.

 

[JungleSkip]

I don't get the hate for LMA. It's not good by any means, but it's not bad.

Oh, I disagree very much. I've seen the show twice, and will never see it again.

I saw it once for the first time in May and thought it was just kinda blah. Some of the stunts are pretty cool but seeing it once was more than enough for me

 

[Vyrus]

I've only seen LMA once, so maybe repeat visits suck?

Yuuuuup :thumbs:

Unless you got a shot of the car jumping through the explosion at the end, I have a feeling you'll be going back to try and get that shot.

I'm not a "fan" of the show by any means, but I don't think it is as bad as most make it out to be, either. It serves its purpose and is at least somewhat entertaining.

 

[Disneyhead]

Any updates on the 'announcement'?

Not a word about anything new coming to WDW.

 

[Thor]

So, Disney lived up to its lowered expectations I see. Way to go!

 

[JungleSkip]

They need to announce a new ride ASAP or when Universal announces Springfield.

You won't hear about anything until at least August at the D23 Expo.

They did release a pic of Cameron and Imagineers working on an Avatarland concept...

Which was a model of a big grass field.

With those cool magnetic rockwork from the movie behind the guy who looks like Urban Meyer. Don't forget that!

Disney's not showing their hand yet. They're smart.

Also, A LOT MORE has been shown, with it never to happen. And a lot less has been shown, and it does happen. There really is no precedent for this.
