Pixie Hollow id Dead!!!!

[nytimez]

My daughter loves the princesses, and I was dreading the idea of having to wait in hourlong lines in multiple places to see them one at a time. That could easily kill the better part of the day.

I hope in the revised plan, they go back to having a single meet-and-greet with multiple princesses, so I can get that out of the way and then get on with my life!

As of right now the M&G's will most likely happen, what I said was PH is dead and the only thing guaranteed is TLM and Be our Guest.

There is also some very good rumors about the money that won't be spent on FLE will go towards expanding Frontierland and heavil involve TSI.

Burbank feels FLE is way to girl oriented so it is being scaled back as of now. They also view Frontierland as making Zero profit for them. So it is a win win situation Frontierland gets some love and FLE gets a balance.

I wouldn't mind Frontierland getting some love. Not sure how I feel about the rumored pirate makeover of TSI though. I love PotC, but its a heckuva jump in theme and geography from present PotC location to what is now TSI

Wow. I'm actually hoping this isn't true. I really was intrested in seeing Pixie hollow...and the rest of the fantasyland expansion. I guess we will have to wait and see until it is officially confirmed or not.

I hope it is not the POTC make over as well Pirates from the Carribean don't fit in the American Frontier.

Tink might get a M&G in the old FL Skyway building

So who are your phantom 'sources'? Unless you can back up what you're saying, you probably shouldn't start a rumor like this.

This is nothing out of left field. This rumor OP is reporting on is all over the internet

 

[twokids0204]

Why are people jumping on OP? Since this is being reported elsewhere by others (and not just Jim Hill) and he has provided links, I don't think it's fair to attack the guy. It's a legitimate point of discussion now, IMO.

Not jumping on anyone... I just find it hard to believe, that's all.

Thanks the only reason I posted is believe me or not I trust my Sources and also I can't believe it wasn't posted here yet.

A good place to read for all kinds of rumours and info. is over at wdwmagic.com- everything hits there days before over here. The talk is now for a reduced fantasyland expansion and doing something to Frontierland. The Pixie Hollow was supposed to be done in its second phase- which leads me to believe that the rumors are correct.

I posted some links on page 1.

To meet Tink not the rest! The only stuff that sells is TINK they are going to build her a M&G.

Not true. I buy a lot of Disney merchandise for guests arriving at WDW. Tink use to be a big seller. Now, I'm seeing alot more demand for traditional Disney characters such as Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, etc.

That is not what I meant. What I meant is that out of the Faries stuff the only thing that sells is Tink.

I don't know if you have little girls or not but my girls love Silvermist and Rosetta the best. Most of their fairy items are of those 2 not Tink. Also it is no fun to have Tink and not her friends. They were also very happy to see Terrence the last time we went.

I can not imagine they would scrap Pixie Hollow especially when they are coming out with more "fairy" movies.

For those of you who can't believe this "because they've revealed all the plans and started construction," you should brush up on your Disney history. Disney plans are in a constant state of revision and flux - there were many versions of the original Disneyland drawn up and released from long before groundbreaking up until opening day.

Check out WestCOT sometime, or Disney's America.

And don't forget, Walt had an entire plan for EPCOT Center all ready to go, and he outlined the whole thing on prime time TV!

My guess that Fantasyland will undergo a significant transformation, but it will eventually look quite different from the plans originally released.

I hope this means more love for the rest of the MK, possibly looking at options for AK (Beastly Kingdom anyone?), expanding the back of DHS (more Pixar), and maybe even an eventual 5th gate.

Why spend all of that money on a Fantasyland project that was geared towards a very specific demographic? Remember the threads here last year about "I hope they do something for boys, too..."? Well, looks like they're doing it!

You are in the Minority so much that in the up coming PH films Tinks role will be scaled back to develop the other Faries.

As far as i am concerned it is just a rumor until Disney releases a statement. Sorry, but too much flies around form "reliable sources" that turns out to be completely false.

I looked at a couple of the threads that the OP posted, and it sounds like it is indeed being thrown around from several well-known "insiders" other than Jim Hill so it sounds like it's at least a substantial rumor and not just hogwash.

I'm personally a little relieved to hear this rumor. I LOVE Tink. She's great, and she definitely deserves her own meet and greet and even a small attraction. (Using the old Skyway and its garden for a M&G as people have suggested seems perfect too!)However, when I first heard about the Pixie Hollow area, I cringed a bit. My entire family, male and female, young and old, has always found something to love in Mickey's Toontown Fair because of its use of the classic Disney characters. To replace it with a land dedicated to a brand new series of direct-to-dvd movies just didn't feel right. It's simply not a good investment. What if, five years from now, that franchise has played itself out and Disney is stuck with a land that people no longer care about? This is NOT an attack on the Tinkerbell franchise at all. I think it's an adorable concept, and Tink is one of my favorite characters. I just think Pixie Hollow needs to prove its longevity before Disney builds a whole mini-land dedicated to it.

The Fantasyland Forest I can get behind because it involves characters who have proved their success and longevity. Cinderella, Aurora, Belle, Ariel: we all know them. Plus, several of the characters are DUE for their own attractions...Beauty and the Beast (my FAV Disney movie ever) and The Little Mermaid have been around for TWENTY years and they are JUST NOW getting something of their own that is more substantial than Mrs. Potts' Cupboard and Ariel's Grotto. I'm glad to hear that Ariel and Belle's attractions will definitely see the light of day no matter what.

And the Frontierland aspect of the rumor, the possibility of using the money saved from Pixie Hollow to expand Frontierland, sounds AWESOME. Let's keep Toontown and expand Frontierland!

I will be interested to see what all of these rumors amount to in the next couple of months.
