Not sure if this would affect anything but it was just announced that season 3 of Stranger Things probably won't hit until 2019.

Probably won’t affect it much. 2019 is gonna be an amazing year for horror though, with IT 2, Conjuring 3, ST 3, and a few more movies coming out.

From what I’ve heard either way a property associated with that song should be coming....

Not to be mean, but heard or """heard"""?

That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if that's the year those properties have a lot more of a reasonable chance to be at the event.

No, no! Not an off year! Anything but that!

Yeah, the event cannot afford to have another “off” year like this was.

An off year has nothing to do with the lineup, it has everything to do with the execution.

Warner Bros Settles $1B ‘Conjuring’ Suit; “Mastermind” Producer Unmasked – Deadline

 

[Timberfellingrobot]

All this trouble and court battles for a Scooby Doo-like resolution (?)

 

[HereWeGo]

Looks like we could be seeing Conjuring next year after all! This has turned out to be so odd. I definitely would never have guessed it to be some disgruntled ex-producer playing puppet-master haha.

 

[rageofthegods]

Well, that settles it. The Conjuring is probably going to come this year, with some "Nun" synergy to boot. We can probably assume we have Halloween, Conjuring and more than likely AHS coming this year. Question is, where is the Conjuring going to go? Waterworld, like last year? Will it move around because of a new lineup this year?

 

[DJIndy49]

I still think it getting pulled this year had more to do with Warners wanting it for their own maze vs the lawsuit but if I were a betting man I would put a couple bucks on seeing it in 18.

If it does make the cut it would be a no brainer to just go with last years maze design.

I feel that they should move the conjuring out of the waterworld queue and put it into the backlot area, specifically where Ash vs Evil Dead was, or in the jp queue.

Random, but is anyone thinking about how this Fox+Disney deal might affect what properties HHN is able to get?

Assuming Disney is stingy with their properties, it cuts off Aliens, Predators, 28 *blank* later and The Fly, which are the big ones. Also cuts off The Omen and The Sixth Sense for a potential "classic" house a la The Shining or The Exorcist.

A big one I was thinking of is AHS since FX is owned by Fox

 

[Horror Lover]

We probably won't ever get a return of The Rocky Horror Picture Show tribute ever again..

 

[HereWeGo]

Well it won't affect anything that happens at next years event because this deal will take AT LEAST a full year to become official. Today was just an announcement that it's going to happen.

That's true. I'll still be looking forward to the Black Swan dark ride for Fantasyland in 2035

 

[rageofthegods]

I'm actually a little worried that losing the rights to AHS might make Murdy / whoever is creative director next year try to cram Asylum, Cult, Coven and whatever the next season is into one house. That'd be a shame, honestly, because Asylum definitely deserves its own house.
