Instant replacement for the old circus tents behind Mickey's House, but on a much grander and nicer scale! (And no more Pixie Hollow crap!!!) Perhaps add a few more toon buildings to make the area more like a town than it is now.

    Toontown Fair isn't a bad theme, it just needed to be expanded into a more complete area with more attractions and buildings.

    A Roger Rabbit anything would be a welcome addition at WDW, but alas, he ain't a princess or a Pixar character so it'll never happen.

    Still possible, they have a plot.

    I would prefer it there, as a matter of fact.

    Also, I think it IS green. Pretty sure...

    Last year the British actor claimed he had "no plans" to make any more movies, but now Hoskins has confirmed reports he will be reprising his role as detective Eddie Valiant in the cartoon film.

    But he's concerned about the new project because bosses plan to deviate from the innovative original format which saw a live action cast integrated with cartoon characters.

    He tells Britain's Daily Telegraph, "I don't know how it's going to work out. The format they want to do is the same as we did for (2009 animated movie) "A Christmas Carol." The thing is, it looks like a cartoon, so how do you put a cartoon in the middle of a cartoon? I can't figure out how they are going to do it"

    Oh, well. Just add RR 2 to the list of sequels to 80s movies that should've been made at least ten years earlier.

    Sure, it's nice to have a place to meet Mickey, but I think whatever they're planning on Main Street will be fine. And hopefully they'll actually use that area to build something grown adults can actually enjoy too - but somehow I doubt that will happen.

    Honestly, don't know why they are using the Goof again. Just make it Dumbo in a Dumbo miniland.
