It will be interesting if it does, but also agree, a BAD location for it if its true.

But here's a thought about a "Hollywood" land. With Buzz, Star Tours, Starbase2000 theater, and Monsters Inc. making up this land ... SHOULD WDI go down the path of "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" 3D movie ... that belongs more in Tomorrowland than a "Hollywood" land. I don't know. It would look funny with a the "gateway" into the land one side the facades are "TL" .. the other "Hollywood". This is going to be one very strange development for the next few years.

Originally Posted By fredddy "Lets ruin Tomorrowland .. and turn the whole place into a Hollywoodland" I do not think it would ruin anything as TDL has the ugliest Tomorrowland in the world. Of course, Monster has nothing to do with the land, but did Meet the world had anything to do with the future? I would even say that Monster is more futuristic than Meet the world...

Originally Posted By FerretAfros Ok, this has come up again in the DCA section, and I would just like to know if anybody has seen any sort of work going on in the park. Apparently, it is also being built right now, and will open about the same time as the one in DCA. Interesting though, since there didn't seem to be any walls in TDLFAN's photo update, except for ones related to the moving of the Photo Shop.

Originally Posted By TDLFAN I pretty much knew that Leemac, and honestly... I agree with WD as well. Monsters Inc is not a favorite movie of mine.
Originally Posted By leemac The reason isn't due to the attraction itself (which has some good buzz coming out of DCA) but due to the fact that OLC are throwing themselves into improving TDS now (and the third hotel).

Originally Posted By Kayoss Tokyo has an entirely different ride system and indeed, RIDE, planned for their Monster's Inc ride.

Originally Posted By SuperDry ^^^ So, I wonder what this will be? I remember reading on a DCA thread a year or so ago about one of the WDI concepts for a Monsters, Inc ride involved a re-creation of the factory scene, with ride vehicles being in the giant room with all of the conveyors/pulleys going every which way. That would be totally cool. I have no idea if this is what you're talking about Kayoss, or whether you're in a position to know, but regardless, I think Hunny Hunt has proven that the execution of a ride (including but not limited to the ride system) can have a night-and-day difference in the way two different attractions turn out, even if they are based on the same underlying theme.
Originally Posted By WorldDisney Okay, then if THAT'S true, I vote to have Monster's Inc back in ;D. I'm interested to have Monster's Inc in DCA because, well frankly, that place needs all the help it can get lol and it will litterally be the only family dark ride in the whole place. Even if it sucks, it will still be more entertaining than most of the stuff in the place . But TDL doesn't need this kind of ride at all, CERTAINLY not in TL at least. So, its good to know if they do something it will be more in line with the theme of the area and not some cheap redo. I PRAY you are right Kayoss .
