I think they should relocate the hat to the center of the Animation Courtyard between The Little Mermaid show and Playhouse Disney.
That would work, seeing as how that area has little to no shade at all!

Exactly what I was thinking. Right icon, wrong place. It also doesn't help that it's a glorified pin stand.
I have nothing brilliant to say, but just wanted to add that I am quite a fan of the hat! So what if it doesn't serve a purpose, it's pretty.
Disneyhead just summed it all up right there. The hat really seems so temporary or parade float like.
Oh I agree, but how long has it been up for? 2001? Yeah, for some reason it doesn't scream temporary to me anymore.
Ha. Exactly. That is the problem. It looks temporary(because it was supposed to be like the Wand and signage that haunted Spaceship Earth for years) It is time for this to do the same.
A dream would be to tear down the hat and as they are doing this give The Great Movie ride a nice refurbishment.
Yes, The Great Movie ride NEEDS to be refurbished. Most people don't even know a lot of the movies featured. Something needs to be done with it.
Not to mention some of the animatronics are just crazy old. I was on the side of the car close to Sigourney Weaver in Alien over the summer and it was hilariously bad. It would be pretty awesome to see the ride get a makeover and put in some more recognizable movies in there from the past 20 years or so.
Would adding a Pirates of the Caribbean scene make sense... you know, saying the Pirates of the Caribbean ride is so close-by?
You put in anything made from the past 20 years and you might as well rename the attraction to "The Crappy Movie Ride."
