I thought this was a Monsters Inc ride like DCA has in the Hollywood Backlot section.

Are you saying this is a show and not a ride?

I was under the impression that the new ride going into Who Wants to be a Millionaire's location was going to be a clone of the Midway Madness (the next level of dark ride shooting gallery) attraction that is slated to also go into DCA's Paradise Pier area. Regardless of the theme, a new ride of any type for Disney/MGM will be a huge bonus for that park!

The list of new attactions so far:

Monster's Inc Laugh Floor (Magic Kingdom) - confirmed (2007) Replacing Timekeeper
The Seas With Nemo and Friends (Epcot) - confirmed (opening Oct 2006)
Nemo musical show (Animal Kingdom) - confirmed (2007) Theatre under construction
Midway Madness(?) (Disney/MGM Studios) - strongly rumored, opening 2008. Replacing WWTBAM-PI!

Any others I'm missing?

Oh, yeah. Jim Hill has rumored that a permanant Nightmare Before Christmas dark ride is being considered for Disney/MGM Studios, possibly replacing Drew Carrey's Sounds Dangerous.

That would be great if it ever happens, but I must admit I'd rather see them leave in Sounds Dangerous and take up some currently-unused space with a new ride, even though SD is an old attraction that's not got a very high repeatability factor.

RIP IT OUT and bring on Cinemagic or a Nightmare Before Christmas dark ride.

PLEASE

Build something new in an empty spot. If not to many people like SD refresh it.

How much space is in the "Sounds Dangerous" theater? I wonder if they would/could combine that with the old "Superstar Television" space for one large show building?

Switching parks for a moment, figmentsimagination.com lists a rumor that a change is coming to the Imagination pavilion. Version 4 is said to be like the original, including Dreamfinder. If true, would be nice.

I have a hard time believing that they'd do a Nightmare Before Christmas attraction. This is a very old movie, and while it works well as a HM overlay, a new ride based on this old a movie doesn't seem likely. They might as well ressurect plans for Dick Tracy attractions and shows.

ORDDU: I don't think age has anything to do with it, though. If a particular subject matter is still popular with the masses--such as Peter Pan--it will draw an audience regardless of how old it is. And with the amount of new merchandise we continually see for Nightmare Before Christmas, it must be even more popular, now, than it was when first released.
