Not Saying they are Not saying their not!!!

Monster's Inc attraction may be moving into Pixar Place, HiStKPG may be converted to A Bug's Life play area, a Luigi ride from Cars may be built, and an Incredibles attraction based around them taking a vacation to Disney World. Also Pizza Planet would be moved to PP. A souvenier shop called Buy'n'Large would move in adjacent to the GMR building, with several more Meet and Greet areas. The current Pizza Planet may be changed over to a restaurant called The Swedish Chef. Rumor or not fun to think about.

Pretty loaded rumor... but man, a Swedish Chef restaurant would be amazing!!!!

 

[nytimez]

Is this something you have information on or just something you wish would happen?

Just something I heard

 

[patsal]

All sounds good. It would be nice to see some new things in DHS and some place different to eat. I sure would like to see DHS be a full day park.

 

[Oglet]

Even if its not true its a really good rumor that id love to see happen.

 

[ChrisFL]

this same information was posted on a certain magical wdw forum, is that where you found the info?

 

[fenrir58]

For the Pizza Planet move, where to? Sorry, I'm still getting used to all the abbreviations.

 

[nytimez]

If they open a shop called Buy n Large, it would only show that these geniuses haven't actually seen the films.

Swedish Chef restaurant would be awesome..... would they theme it in such a way your food was delivered via cannon from the kitchen? and never quite what you ordered

 

[Queenofspoons]

If they do make a swedish chef resturant I hope they have talking food everywhere in resturant and a audio animatronic swedish chef giving chaotic cooking demonstrations every 10 minutes.

This made me laugh, A LOT.

My bf would be so excited if they opened a Swedish Chef restaurant. He LOVES the Muppets. I think adding more to Pixar Place would definitely be a good thing.

Pizza Planet WAS slated to be a Swedish Chef restaurant in early concept art for Hollywood Studios. Last time I visited the artwork was displayed in the One Man's Dream exhibit. Used to have a photo of it on my cell phone but must have deleted.

I just listened to a podcast on this last week (not THE podcast, just A podcast). Apparently, there was supposed to be a muppet "land" in DHS and the muppet characters were supposed to be much more prominent in the whole park, but Jim Henson's death threw a wrench in the plans. From what was described, it would have been incredible. Now that Disney owns the muppets and has another muppet movie in production, I'm hoping the re-explore it.

BTW, I think it was Mama Melrose that was supposed to be the Muppet restaurant.

Muppet Vision was actually Henson's final film, I believe.

1. Monsters Inc is coming but not till after FLE is complete.
2. Bugs life play ground is happening
3.Luigi is possible.
4. No truth at all to the Incredibles ride
5No truth to the Pizza Planet or But N Large.

No, the artwork I saw had Swedish Chef at Pizza Planet. I found a copy of the image. Quality isn't the greatest:

The building on the left looks almost identical to Pizza Planet's final design and you can see the Swedish Chef balloon hovering above.

Muppetvision is to the right and the yellow building in the middle is where the gift shop sits. Mama Melrose would be situated beyond that.

Of course it's certainly possible that there were other plans to bring the Chef to MM. I was just relaying the content of this particular image.

That is not new artwork. That art is 20 years old for the proposed Muppet Studios when MGM first opened.

That's exactly what I said in my original post.
