If they brought back Superstar Limo and re-themed it to Muppets, that'd probably be pretty hilarious.

[@superlolbrothers6559]

I think they should also replace Star Wars Launch Bay with the cancelled Muppets parody of The Great Movie Ride.

[@thenatureboy1837]

MuppetVision 3D was the last project the late great Jim Henson worked on. I understand the attraction is dated, but it is very sad to see it go.

[@RHetrick1987]

Getting rid of an actual jim henson muppets attraction so the creatively bankrupt disney imagineers can reskin rock n roller coaster sounds like the absolute worst choice of all of the choices that were on the table.

[@thefanguy2847]

Honestly I was hoping they would put the muppets into Rockin n roller coaster. Which surprised me that it’s actually happening. And now since they said they are looking into preserving the experience. Maybe once the villains show has run its course, they can create a new Muppets courtyard and put Muppet vision 3-D into that theater building.

They've got 40 square miles to build on. They don't have to tear down anything to add new experiences. I'm going to be down the street enjoying the parks over there and I'll never set one foot on WDW property for the rest of my days. And I'm okay with that.

[@ChienaAvtzon]

Honestly, this sounds like a really fun idea. Reskinning Rockin’ Roller Coaster to “The Muppets”, could help make the classic characters relevant for younger generations. Not to mention, the Aerosmith license is expiring quite soon. While, the “Monsters Inc.” suspended coaster does not need a large footprint. The layout, while custom, is not dissimilar to the Phoenix suspended coaster on Coney Island.

[@marinmarinhola]

Also makes perfect sense with the Muppet Mayhem show that came out last year.

Disney is dead. Creatively, culturally, ethically, and philosophically. They're dead. They not only can no longer create experiences anywhere near equal to those who built the company and parks into what they were, but are determined to destroy what made them great to begin with. Let it go..

Why the hell are they replacing rock n roller coaster with the muppets? This park needs thrill! I mean thats why this park was made, for the teenagers/adults.

[@stephanievitale-ur1vo]

I love the Muppets and glad they will get the roller coaster and that monsters inc goes into the muppets 3D section

[@bigthrillsmike3950]

When villains land opens, I can see them maybe closing that villains show and putting muppet vision in there and have that be a mini muppet land

[@blanchfield137]

I love the muppets and go to Muppets 3D every time I am in HS.

[@austinphillips5719]

They probably want to connect the launch bay area to Toy Story Land. Andy's backyard to Monstropolis would have been an ideal transition. I could see the Cars area announced for Magic Kingdom being moved to the launch bay space instead.

[@mykelcohen]

You can’t convince me that Disney did not know all along exactly where they were going to put this land. They just knew that they could not announce the rivers of America and Muppet vision closing during D2 3 without mass hysteria they knew to spread out the bad news to fans.

[@ronevans9693]

I get that there are niche groups of fans for pretty much everything Disney has ever built. But progress has been what mankind has done since… well… since mankind. Sometimes the new must replace the old. I’m far more concerned with Disney’s lack of cleanliness, maintenance, imagineering, innovation, etc.. We are going to lose old stuff for new stuff. I just wish that the quality wouldn’t keep going down.

[@thewalkingdad68]

I just want to point out that Disney owns 40 square miles of property at WDW...they can build it anywhere. They don't have to tear down beloved attractions to do so.

[@LChatmanFL]

Quick question, there's only one attraction correct? The rest of the "land" is dining and merchandising correct?

[@stanfordite1]

Progress is done. Mankind is finished. When I take over Disney, there will only be regression followed by stagnation. I will be the Trump Disney needs to make it great again and only old things will come back with nothing new ever built again.

[@maui3551]

I knew this would be happening

[@GFettJake]

I’m mixed on this. While I’m heartbroken to see them get rid of Muppet Vision 3D and the land which was Jim Henson’s last project that he worked on 😭💔 At least they aren’t getting rid of the Muppets completely. I’m actually kinda excited to see Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster get rethemed to the Muppets and Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem. I really do think it could work. However it’s still devastating. What they should’ve done instead is keep Muppets land and Muppet Vision 3D, and instead put Monsters Inc land and the roller coaster over in animation courtyard. Nobody goes over to that space. It’s an empty space that’s dead and not utilized. Then retheme Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster to be Muppets as well. That way we have more appreciation for the Muppets. The Muppets don’t get the love they deserve and it’s sad. Disney has been mismanaging The Muppets and it’s heartbreaking because I absolutely love The Muppets 😭💔

[@hollybabyyy]

Flight force is horrific btw as someone who grew up w dlp. They put all the money in the queue. And the ride is just black

[@jacobwerman1008]

It's not really a good compromise. Now I'm losing two iterations of attractions I really enjoy. Tiana's was fine, but they removed all drama and excitement that splash mountain had, which I worry is what the Muppets would do with rock n Rollercoaster to a lesser extent. Muppetvision itself is a really good way to get out of the heat and sit down for 30 minutes, on top of just generally being a really fun experience.

[@ChienaAvtzon]

There is going to be a show in Monstropolis.

[@hollybabyyy]

WHY ARE THEY LIKE THIS. IM HONESTLY STARTING TO BELIEVE THE DISNEY HIGHER UPS ARE UNIVERSAL FANS AND ARE TRYING TO RUIN WDW. This is utter nonsense. We now have no og rock n roller left. Ruining jim hensons last work. Theres a whole empty courtyard for them to put monsters inc. the whole magic kingdom and animal kingdom changes. The fail of epcots new changes. I am a huge passionate fan. But they’re making me actively dislike wdw. Id rather care about disneyland and universal now

[@dayoldbread1696]

Here in Southern California we have been waiting for that avengers e ticket ride for like 6 years now, and by the time it opens (after being cancelled and drastically changed from what was originally promised) it’ll have been nearly 10 years since it’s original announcement back in 2019. Web slingers and avengers campus were cheap and lazy. So as a huge marvel fan I was disappointed going opening week (after Disney was hyping it up), and realizing it was something I’d see at a six flags park not Disney. After they constantly over promise and under deliver, and budget cut nearly everything, I lost most of my excitement and confidence in Disneys ability to do a good job. Hopefully they can return to their former glory but for now it feels very far off

This is sad...that area needed some love but I really enjoy the show and go every time we go to HS. Launch bay seems to be a dead area too. It all feels a little disjointed...should Monster Laugh Floor then go into Muppets theatre opening that space up to something new? Tommorrowland could use a little for sure!

[@ChienaAvtzon]

The Launch Bay is probably going to be used for the next large expansion to Hollywood Studios.

[@Ben-ee2xy]

I like the muppet coaster but I will miss Aerosmith theme. However, I still don’t understand the thought process of destroying old stuff to replace it with something new instead of just… building something new. Would it not be in their best interest to expand capacity? More rides = more capacity = more spending. I don’t understand this thing they do replacing rides. It doesn’t make much sense at all.

[@ChienaAvtzon]

But the suspended roller coaster is adding another ride. While, “The Little Mermaid” show is reopening. All that is happening is an old roller coaster is getting a reskin.

[@GoofyGuy-WDW]

Admin buildings have still been largely emptied. Coming from people who worked in them.

[@ScottThomasPhoto]

I do agree on the compromise. I would like to see them leave MuppetVision 3-D until RNRC is rethemed. They can still construct the new ride and keep something people can enjoy. Once RNRC re-opens, then redo the 3-D theater. Meanwhile, Disney needs to make Animation Court for Animation again and replace Launch Bay with a more appropriate IP. Moana, perhaps?

[@jocelynsantiago7154]

Well I think that's a great compromise cuz we get to keep our Muppets and we get monsters!

[@thevacuumobservatory1661]

Why don’t they relocate muppet vision to where lightnings racing academy was?

Wow, they are literally destroying Disney. Bob Iger knows he won't be there any longer and is really trying to make some money before he leaves. But Muppets definitely needed to be replaced with something better. Hopefully they'll start monsters inc and leave rocking roller coaster open during the construction.

I feel this means animation court yard will be Simpsons land or it will be at terror tower, where the tower will be Mr. Burns' Nuclear Power Plant. This is why The Simpsons Ride will close in Florida in 2025 at Universal with that space Pokémon

I think its a decent compromise. They should gradually expand out a mini muppets land from that corner of the park eventually as well. I think there is some cool walk through ideas they could do with muppets. I remember seeing some sets for Emmet Otter at the Atlanta puppet museum and it was really fun.

[@sportgamer3255]

Amazing idea! Love it! I’m a huge Muppets 3D fan, but this is a win all around. Muppets 3D (dated attraction) replaced by a new Monsters Inc show. Right next to it, we get a new state of the art Monster’s coaster! And to top it off, Muppets get to take over one of the most popular coasters at DW in what could be a really fun and fresh retheme with Dr Teeth and The Electric Mayhem

[@CLIFFLIX]

C'mon guys,...we need to support Burbank on this. Burbank is doing their best to revamp Disney and cater to today's extremely important modern audience. Yes, that means canceling MANY of the older attractions that were developed for older "legacy" fans back in the day. Burbank needs to update it's parks to represent what younger and more modern audiences want to see. If you consider yourself a "Disney fan", you NEED to get behind and support Burbank's mission here. C'mon folks,...there is a long list of outdated, legacy things like "Splash Mountain", "Rivers of America", "Hall of Presidents", "Carousel of Progress", "American Adventure"...and the list goes on and on. Look at Epcot today!...it's a great success story of Burbank being able to modernize an aging park and bring it into the future. Can we PLEASE stop fighting Burbank and be REAL fans and get on their bandwagon?...please?. ;-)
