Is Disney trying to sneak in a BIG change right under our noses?!

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

We all know Disney LOVES to drop little hints in their concept art, and we spotted something that has us raising some serious eyebrows. With Muppets Courtyard making way for the brand-new Monsters, Inc. Land in Hollywood Studios, we’ve been curious about what’s going to happen to the old Muppet*Vision 3D theater. And now, a tiny little detail in Disney’s concept art has us thinking that we’ve got a hint as to what show could be taking it over!

We already knew that Hollywood Studios was getting a massive transformation. Between the new Little Mermaid show, the upcoming Villains show, and the Muppets-themed Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster retheme, there’s a LOT to look forward to. But when Disney announced that Monsters, Inc. Land would include a “whole new theater show,” we immediately started speculating about what that could mean.

At first, we figured the new show could be an entirely original concept. Maybe a brand-new Monsters, Inc. story told through a high-tech, immersive experience? But then we took a closer look at that concept art, and guess what we found? Tucked away near what used to be Mama Melrose’s Ristorante Italiano, there’s a sign that looks VERY familiar. If you squint just right, you’ll see what appears to be a Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor sign hiding in plain sight!

For those who don’t know, Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor is an interactive comedy show currently over in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom. It’s been entertaining guests for years with its unique format, featuring animated monsters cracking jokes in real time (thanks to some very cool technology and live performers).

Hi, Buddy!

So, could Disney be planning to close the Magic Kingdom version and move the show over to Hollywood Studios, giving it a fresh home in Monsters, Inc. Land? If so, we’re curious to see whether the show remains the same or if Disney gives it an upgrade with new tech, fresh jokes, and an updated storyline.

And while we’re on the topic of theater transformations, we can’t help but hope that the old Muppet*Vision 3D space keeps a little nod to its history. Think about how Disneyland’s Winnie the Pooh ride left behind the old Country Bear Jamboree heads as a hidden Easter egg.

Could Disney do something similar here? Maybe a little Gonzo or Kermit cameo somewhere in the queue or theater decor?

Of course, Disney hasn’t confirmed anything yet, and they love to keep us guessing. This could be a clever little Easter egg meant to tease us, or it could be a full-blown announcement hidden in plain sight. Either way, we’re officially on high alert for more news about this mysterious new theater show.
