The Uncertain Future of MuppetVision 3D

[@karebear3152]

I'm praying for the transfer to Sunset Showcase and making that whole area a new Muppets land.

[@imaginationstationyt6948]

I am hoping that Muppet Vision is truly preserved. It is among the best 3D shows that exist in a theme park. It is self aware in a way that is funny and pokes fun at itself in a way only Muppets can. I'm hoping RnR is good with the Muppets. But I need Muppet Vision to remain in the parks or at least be preserved somehow someway in some form. I can only hope the announcement made is not PR nonsense and we can actually get something that saves the queue, the show and the memories people have with it for generations to come.

[@CinnamonGrrlErin1]

I actually emailed the Center for Puppetry Arts a few weeks ago, telling them about my concerns, and I really hope other people reach out to them as well. If there's going to be a solution to this, they're the people who should be most involved (yes, even more than the Henson family, although it's become clear over the years that they're not happy with how Disney has managed their father's hard work and legacy).

[@CinnamonGrrlErin1]

And to be honest, I would love even more if just they owned the Muppets IP. I highly doubt that will happen, because we know Disney would rather close or end an IP or studio rather than sell it (RIP Blue Sky Studios), but the Muppets need to be in the hands of people who understand the art and craft of puppetry. It's not like animation or even a live action studio, and Disney can't grasp that.

[@OscarLangleySoryu]

@@CinnamonGrrlErin1 Disney has lots of puppetry experts lol

[@CinnamonGrrlErin1]

​@OscarLangleySoryu then why have all their Muppet projects over the last 15 years been either mediocre or just complete shit? The Muppets have more in common with a community theater troupe than they do with an animation studio, they do not belong with a company that fired the one guy who knew how to keep the gang together and the show going.

[@CinnamonGrrlErin1]

@@OscarLangleySoryu then why has every Muppet project over the last 15 years been either bland and mediocre or complete horseshyte? If you knew anything about the Muppets or puppetry in general, you'd know that they're much closer to being like a community theater troupe than an animation studio. The Muppet characters are, in many cases, drawn from the personalities of the real life performers, and they are known for doing a lot of improvisation. But Disney is not an improv company, they have strict control over their IPs, and they're not shy about getting rid of people who try to protect their projects, like Steve Whitmire, or even Joe Rodhe from Imagineering. They don't know their arse from their elbow when it comes to puppetry or The Muppets.

Instead of a Muppet retheme for Rock n’ Roller coaster, a friend of mine suggested a Powerline & a Goofy Movie retheme. Ever since she’s said it, I can’t stop thinking about how cool that would be!

[@stuartm6069]

Dallin, I think you are completely right. Don't forget that Disney is listening to you (except for the people mover). The Muppets need more respect. I agree that Sunset Showcase would be a great place for Muppets 3D. Disney should make that whole corner of Hollywood studios a Muppet area. I don't like roller coasters but a whole Muppet Land is something I would love to go to.#KeepJimHensonsDreamAlive.

[@flyingkatya]

I truly hope Muppet Vision 3D becomes the E.T. ride of Disney.

[@itshobojoe1391]

I wish they'd leave MuppetVision right where it is. The theater was built for it and having Monster's right down the block from it is not the craziest thing in the world. Anyplace else, it's going to be this weird compromise. Edit: To add...I do think the Sunset Theater is not a bad place to move MuppetVision...the problem is that the theater's kinda small. There's really no space for the preshow area and the theater right now is alot smaller than Muppet Theater. It'd take some logistical work to figure that out...which I'd be very happy if they did

[@Kparc1212]

They removed the Great Movie Ride with R.R. They should have updated it with only Disney Movie clips and attractions. I agree with you, the Muppets 3-D movie needs to live on. (I’m a former cast member and worked the Muppets Movie for 3 years.)

[@RonanBunny]

They could bring Muppet Vision 3-D back to California Adventure by turning the Hollywood Backlot into a Muppets inspired Hollywood area called “The Muppets Take Hollywood!” It would even have more muppets attractions and an original Electric Mayhem roller coaster.

[@thrillingadventures4164]

Sadly they're going to turn Hollywoodland into Pandora but Muppets land back there would be better

[@RonanBunny]

@@thrillingadventures4164 yeah, I’m not on board with Pandora going in the Hollywood backlot, Heck even in California Adventure. Zootopia works so much better in there since it’s based on Los Angeles and Muppets would’ve also been a great idea but unfortunately, the Imagineers at Disney currently have no creative bones in their bodies. So they’ll just slap whatever IP will make the most money into the parks.

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

Given Disney's lack of respect for such things, I wonder if there's a possibility of the show being moved to one of the museums that's already dedicated to Jim Henson and the Muppets. It looks like there'd be enough space near his boyhood exhibit and Birthplace of Kermit The Frog museum. Or they could probably work it into their lot in Hollywood. They could probably work out a way of building it over the current parking they have on site. It's less than ideal, but both locations would likely be permanently protected as long as the Jim Henson company exists at all. That being said, with how Disney has been flushing money down the toilet, perhaps just sell the property to Universal, they're going to have space in their parks when they lose the rights to other Disney properties in coming years.

[@kyusshead]

The old Lightning McQueen building would make too much sense, so it will never happen. Mini Muppet World sounds great!

[@gamergreyh3489]

I think that moving Muppet Vision 3D to the sunset showcase is certainly the best option. Even if it moves the villains show, they have an entire land. And heck, while they’re at it, they could always make animation courtyard the home for à cars land…

[@MysticSparkleWings]

I so hope you're right and Sunset Showcase is where Muppet Vision 3D ends up. The announcement was a double blow for me; Muppets Vision was one thing my whole family looked forward to doing _together_ every time we went to Disney, and while me and my mom are not roller coaster people, my dad and brother (dad especially) love the Aerosmith version of the Rock N Roller Coaster. They'll _probably_ like the Muppet version "fine," but they'll still be disappointed that it was changed. Personally, aside from the issues in respecting legacies, I'm very upset that we keep getting more and more intense thrill rides only a subset of families can enjoy and less intense (but still fun!) experiences are largely getting pushed out to make room for them. And honestly, it also makes me nervous that they're changing the Rock N Roller Coaster because of how physically close it is to the Tower of Terror, and how at odds the Muppet themeing will be to have right next door. [Aerosmith didn't make a ton of sense either but you could make the argument they were both "tribute" rides and sorta made sense together that way.] ToT is the one intense thrill ride I make an exception for because of how much I love the (old) _Twilight Zone_ and I've been terrified (haha) for the Florida version's future ever since they changed California's. This makes me think ToT may be next on the chopping block...

[@LiquidSteel_04]

to be fair, ToT is the icon of the hollywood studios park. It’s on all the maps and merch representing the park, it’s 90% likely they don’t change it, at least in the next 25 or so years

[@MysticSparkleWings]

​@@LiquidSteel_04 Eh, I really _hope_ you're right, but being an icon of Hollywood Studios certainly hasn't stopped them from removing or changing things before. See also: The Earffel Tower and Mickey's Sorcerer Hat. They could very well re-theme ToT to something else but keep the facade 90% the same so they don't have to change much in marketing.

[@VideoingTheMagic]

[@porcelainthunder2213]

They don’t need another cars land. They have one. It’s okay not to have every IP in every park. It makes going to another park worth it. Here’s an idea, retheme Tianas Bayou Adventure to the Muppets! Since it doesn’t work anymore, it’s like they took it over!

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

TBH, I think that a cars land like what they're thinking about could be really cool, the issue is that they're putting it in the middle of the park. If they put it in one of those unused areas towards the margins of their property, that could be really cool.

[@TheKingzEcho]

Actually, Walt did say that Disney would be a sometimes museum. “Disneyland will be sometimes a fair, an exhibition, a playground, a community center, a museum of living facts, and a showplace of beauty and magic. It will be filled with accomplishments, the joys and hopes of the world we live in.” From the onslaught, Walt referred to tinkering and expansion. Not ripping away for the sake of innovation. If anything is true, it’s that we can find more quotes on Walt’s wanting Americana to exist in Disney more than anything else. Over and over again, Walt emphasizes that the parks are a collection of nostalgia and innovation. We can’t have the nostalgia if it gets ripped out for lop-sided technology. Edit: From what I can tell, “Disneyland is not a museum” is a term invented by imagineers, most likely stemming from corporate, to validate the taking away or altering of attractions considered sacred.

[@theotherjared9824]

The theatre in california adventure that now houses philharmagic was designed for muppet vision and featured it for over a decade. It would be quite easy to put it back in.

[@KLGChaos]

I was thinking the building next to Rock N Roller Coaster myself. And I didn't even realize that Lightning McQueen closed down. I also got some more Magic Candles. Banshee's Flight smells just like the cave in Flight of Passage. It's incredible.

[@CrazyManhog]

[@metallicnole4514]

They could put it there, but with the villains show there, they may wait until the villains land opens in MK.

[@OscarLangleySoryu]

I was thinking that too. That would probably stimulate some traffic to it as well. Being next to the roller coaster and having an updated Muppet area around it. Of course, that would require intelligence so don’t hold your breath.

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

The Rock n Roller Coaster being Muppets themed makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. While the Muppets are known in part for music, it's usually slower paced music where they wouldn't get through an entire song with the length of the roller coaster. And, you're going to fast that there isn't really the opportunity to show much, as it has to be pretty big to even be noticeable.

Just one slight correction. MuppetVision isn’t being replaced for the Door coaster, that’s going in the parking lot. MuppetVision is being replaced by some unannounced “new Monsters Inc. Show.”

[@Yensid951927]

I thought it was a no brainer that they could've expanded the Muppets are out for a new ride next to MuppetVision. Well, their doing that, but not with the Muppets. I'm still optimistic with the possibility it could be a move to the Sunset theater instead of a permanent closure but I'm not sure it would have all the bells and whistles as the current show. When they added Mickey's Philharmagic to DCA, it paled to the one in MK because the theater wasn't built for the large-scale screen that show was made for. I'm afraid that moving the show would lead to a similar situation but supposes it would be better than not having it at all.

[@zacg_]

Imagine if Disney had ever built a Texas resort and then built a park and it was about Disney nostalgia. And in that park they built museums and galleries including memorabilia and pieces of defunct attractions, restaurants, shows...etc. But additionally they chose to preserve (or even recreate) some of the most beloved attractions. Yes, it wouldn't be immersive. But it could tell the story of Disney in a really compelling way. I know they wouldn't preserve EVERY attraction. But there would be a place to experience The Great Movie Ride, Maelstrom, Horizons, World of Motion, the Honey I Shrunk the Kids: Movie Set Adventure, Body Wars, Cranium Command, America Sings, ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter, 20,000 Leagues under the Sea or the Original Submarine Voyage, original Country Bear Jamboree, Captain EO, the original Journey into Imagination, Flying Saucers, Studio Backlot Tour, Adventure thru Inner Space....etc. And they could have a rotating line up of beloved stage shows that have ended that would run for a year or two and then be cycled through. This would be prefect for Muppet Vision.

[@supertouring1]

I agree they should take over the theatre close to RRC. Or could they upgrade the theatre seats to DBox ones (like in theatres), add some additional fans or sprinklers to turn Muppet 3D into 4D?

I know this is going to be a controversial opinion but I think Hollywood Land is one of the worst lands at the Disney parks and sure Monsters Inc. and Disney Animation are the best but ever since that got rid of Muppet Vision 3-D it all went downhill from their and Disney never confirmed why they closed DCA's Muppet Vision 3-D they did that just to make fans angry so I think what Disney should do is for Disney California Adventure's 25th anniversary they should bring back Muppet Vision 3-D because it would bring more Attendance to the park and the reason why I say that is that Mickey's Philharmagic is a great attraction at the other Disney parks but DCA's version is cheaply done and it's not really that popular there from what I've seen from videos also the other reason why I hate it is that there's like 3 things abandoned there 1. Stage 17 were Who Wants to be a Millionaire Play It, Olaf's Snow Fest, and Avengers Campus store used to be. 2. Stage 12 were the Hollywood & Dine and the Flynn's Arcade for the Tron Lifecycle event used to be 3. The Hyperion Theatre were Aladdin, Frozen, and Roger the Musical used to be

[@MrMadshepherd]

As much as the theatre takeover is a no brainier I doubt it’ll happen. I get the feeling that Disney don’t LIKE the Muppets the way we do. They seem to only use them out of obligation, ease or appeasement. They turn up at events because it’s easy to throw them into any situation, they give us a Rockin rollercoaster retheme as an easy retheme to appease fans mad about Muppetvision. We’ll have to wait and see how much effort they bother putting in to it. Animatronics, puppets, anything practical? Or just screens? I certainly feel like Disney would like us to just forget about the muppets and wouldn’t bother with the mayhem coaster if they didn’t feel they had to. In that same vein I think they’ll look at Rockin rollercoaster and think ‘job done, fans have their obligatory muppets representation’ and call it a day. No restaurant, no show, nothing more they need to do if they can do the bare minimum. In a perfect world I’d advocate for muppetvision taking over that show building, and even expand backwards, take over animation courtyard. Convert that area into the Muppet studios we’ve always wanted. A Swedish chef restaurant, a new Muppet gift shop. And most importantly, the Great Muppet movie ride in homage to the much missed real great movie ride.

They are being shortsighted by creating what they see as a crowd draw. What I think even Walt would agree on is that there needs to be longstanding generational rides that parents can’t tell their children was their favorite ride as a kid. They are in a cycle of just recycling areas for a boost in attendance and then just move on. It’s not honoring anything. I’m sure they think taking advantage of muppets IP to replace a ride that already needed retheme is honoring muppets but I think most of us know better.

To me... neither of these historic attractions should be demolished (Rivers of America and Muppetvision 3D) but I may be biased as Cars is my least favorite Pixar franchise and I won't be able to enjoy Monstropolis as a physically disabled woman who cannot ride anything more thrilling than Frozen Ever After

Disney really is terrible at accessibility on their rides. It's awful.

@@gr33ngirlsea When I was younger (My first trip was when I was 3 months old in 1997) I felt like I could do so much more in each park, now it seems like they don't want to open dark rides or new shows, so my family can go do the attractions but I'm stuck just waiting, the worst for me is Hollywood Studios back in the day I could do everything except for 3 attractions, now I can only go on 3 attractions and they're removing my favorite show, I wish they would have something I could go on in Galaxy's Edge, I'm a huge Star Wars fan and all I can do there is shop

Monster inc land will also have a theater show

[@scratwichman]

My disappointment is palpable. I adore the Muppets and Muppet Vision.

[@EPiche09]

I like Muppet Christmas Carol.

Put it on one of the cruise ships.

Is tthe space available to put it in the Voyage to the Little Mermaid theater?

[@bigthrillsmike3950]

They’re already putting a new little mermaid show there next year so that won’t happen unfortunately. Otherwise that could’ve been possible
