Monsters Inc. Land

I personally have no interest until the coaster is open. I think opening the “show” first could actually backfire if it doesn’t deliver and the coaster isn’t there to support the land’s necessity.

The problem with putting a show in the old muppet theater is that it will be endlessly compared to what came before it. With a meet and greet or complete tear down , at least you’re avoiding the eventual disappointment.

That's the path Disney chose, though. It would be even more egregious to have lost Muppet*Vision for nothing (I know meet-and-greets have their place... but they're simply not attractions).

So now it has to be a great show (which, really, should be our expectation for anything they do).

The recent Zootopia show and the previous monsters laughing floor show make me a little concerned

The new Mermaid show at DHS is terrific and the new DHS Villains show is better than I expected.

Yeah, I’d much rather them open this in phases than wait to open it all in 2028.

There are operational rationales, but I just think it's poor show to open an incomplete product.

It would certainly be a better reveal and any shortcoming could be corrected with something that overdelivers “yeah, the coaster isn’t as intense as I thought but the octopus animatronic in Harry’s is amazing”

They’ll be held to their own strengths now.

But if we remove that facade and look at it rationally, we’re just getting back what we lost in terms of checking boxes until the coaster comes back anyway.

This would be an insane approach for Disney or anyone to take. You don’t tear down a theater in fear the show replacing it not being as good. You simply change the show.

Shows change and can be revamped easily. There is zero reason to have torn down a perfectly functional theater space.

And for a meet and greet suggestion, no less?
That’s disappointing.
