Well, we’ve certainly had some BIG news about Disney’s Hollywood Studios recently.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
We’re pretty excited about the new villains show coming to the park; however, the biggest news we received recently is all about the upcoming Monsters, Inc. land. Disney recently revealed the location for this land, and yes, that means we’re saying goodbye to the Muppets Courtyard (but hello to a Muppets-themed Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster). But Disney also made another hidden announcement about Hollywood Studios: another new show is coming to the park.
Disney recently revealed new details about the Monsters, Inc., land, but mentioned something that you might have actually missed. Yes, there will be a suspended roller coaster — a first for Disney — that will recreate the door vault scene from the first Monsters, Inc. film, BUT Disney also revealed the new land would have new dining and shopping.

And wait! There’s more! Because Disney’s announcement also revealed that this land would have a “whole new theater show.” Now, this is something that Disney had not revealed before. So we now know this land will feature a new attraction AND a new show.
Will the new show be at the old MuppetVision 3D theater?
Of course, Disney did not reveal any details about this show. There’s already one Monsters, Inc. show over in Tomorrowland in Magic Kingdom, though: Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor. We’ll be curious to see if Laugh Floor somehow gets reimagined and moves over to Hollywood Studios, but as Disney was adamant about mentioning a “new” show, who knows?

We’ll just have to wait and see what Disney has in store for this new land. In the meantime, we’ll be keeping an eye out for more Disney news, so stay tuned to DFB for more.

Disney sure does not want me to visit Disney IP Land (HS). All that is left for me to visit on a part day there would be Star Tours, Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway (wife’s choice, not mine), Stunt Spectacular. Oh well, just means more time in the other three parks. Or, if my wife gets her way, us visiting other places that are not theme parks.
Disney is plotting along making it reasonable for me to go to Universal. The Mouse is loosing it fan base with all of these changes.
I haven’t read all the latest on the new land and the demise of Muppet courtyard, but I guess this is farewell to Mama Melrose’s too. I know many people will supposedly say good riddance, but it was one of our favorites (and it was always packed). It doesn’t make sense to me that they’re using that space for Monsters rather than for expanding GE, but it’s not like I understand many choices Disney has made in recent years. There would be plenty of space to genuinely expand – so tired of losing things in order to be able to have new ones.
If they end up closing Mike and Sully to the rescue in Anaheim, they should pack it up and find a spot for it in the new Monstropolis. Seems to me a land based on a property popular with kids should have a ride that kids and families can enjoy in addition to the new show and coaster.
Hold on, wait a minute, hear me out …
Transform Galactic Starcruiser into a Monsters, Inc Laugh Factory. Monsters will come visit in the night and make you laugh. During the day, LARP in the Laugh Factory.
You saw it here first!
Please let it be a full stage version of “Put That Thing Back Where It Came From or So Help Me.”
How will this affect Mama Melrose?
Hi Robin! Mama Melrose’s will also be closing.
I am now putting together a letter writing campaign to ask for more of The Muppets at Walt Disney World and Disneyland. It’s also the campaign to help save Muppets Courtyard and Muppet Vision 3D. First I’ve got the campaign stared on Facebook by advertising, contacted the stars who worked The Muppets on Instagram, and I wrote my own letter. If Walter could save The Muppets, so can I
