Disney's Hollywood Studios (General Discussion)

[Nick]

Haven't we know for like 8 months that the DAK plan for Indy was killed and that he would be getting an expanded presence in DHS?

I'm sure someone said that here.

Yeah, pretty much. Do you expect we’ll hear about this at D23 next year?

Sounds like the Muppets are on their way out. Restaurant mostly closed, and the attraction with reduced hours in a park that only has a handful of attractions. Doesn't sound like there's much of a future.

For real. How is DHS reducing any attractions hours at this point? The park is barren already.

And here I was thinking, "How can Disney be even more idiotic to DHS?".

In all retrospective, I really hate myself for thinking of that before, as this is...incredibly stupid. Like, my god; "what is in WDW's minds" level stupid.

That Muppet land is really starting to lack .. muppets.

 

[rhino4evr]

That's just comical at this point. Why would a park with so few attractions cut hours on one?
Is it that unpopular with guests?

 

[UniversalRBLX]

I assume the closure is a lack of attendance. There's really no one going back there with it being a dead end. Once SWL opens, it'll probably be a bit better.

The park is a ghost town.

I wonder if MuppetVision ever saw *any* guests during the last couple of hours of an operating day. It always seems pretty quiet during afternoon peak times.

This.

Limiting hours forces guests to experience it earlier and actually helps fill theaters. It’s not uncommon for continuous running shows to close an hour or two before park.

But if it ever closes I may die.

Clever. This way you won't drive by Muppets and even know it exists.

Disney's post does not do a great job of showing how the current entrances are being rerouted.

I'm still not clear on where cars coming in on World Drive off 192 are going to be direct to. That map only shows a relatively small area.

It looks like you would go from northbound World Drive to eastbound Osceola Parkway, which has a direct access ramp for DHS. However, I think most of the traffic that takes I-4 to US 192 to World Drive for DHS will be rerouted to the Osceola Parkway exit for I-4 going westbound, which also has a direct access ramp for DHS.

If they're going to just clone the DL ride, I hope they go all out and create the original vision with the coaster too.

 

[rhino4evr]

that looping coaster looks super boring. I hope they don't bring that over.

 

[belloq87]

I would hope that whatever Indy attractions come are not straight clones of any existing Indy attractions.

While on the subject of Indy. Here's how the rolling ball effect works:



@Teebin might get a kick out of this.
