Construction in MK {Tomorrowland}

**Celestria** · 03-16-2009, 07:34 PM

has anyone heard anything about the construction going on in tomorrowland? i heard something about stitch, but i wondered if anyone else knew.

also... if this has been discussed somewhere and i missed it please direct me to the right direction.

Yeah, supposedly they're adding some new Stitch stage show or something.

Honestly, it must be pretty lame because there's been like zero press about it.

**medic9016** · 03-16-2009, 08:24 PM

It's called Stitchs Supersonic Show. Like Ian said not much press about it.

**lindique** · 03-16-2009, 08:29 PM

I was told that the Stitch show would be using the technology from Turtle Talk, combined with other live entertainment. I don't know how valid this information was.

In addition, they are also dismantling the theater that was in Tomorrowland and re-doing the restrooms. There's a lot of construction walls up right now!

**Figment!** · 03-16-2009, 09:24 PM

The construction walls are for the construction of a new permanent stage and the demolition of the Galaxy Palace Theater.

From Tidbits January 2009

A Stitch Stage

1/7/09 Construction permits have been filed and work has begun for a new stage in Tommorowland. According to the permits, the new stage will be called “Magical Celebrations Stage”. Entertainment Cast have reported that the stage will be initially used for the forthcoming Stitch’s SuperSonic Celebration show.

Here's the most detailed description for the new show from a press release:

He’s the Guru of Gross-Out, the Maker of Mischief. Now, everybody’s favorite galactic pal stars in "Stitch’s SuperSonic Celebration," a high-energy, retro-futuristic music video dance party in Magic Kingdom. The fun features Stitch, an interactive dance troupe and a DJ celebration host who invites all Tommorowland guests to come party, dance and celebrate.

but if this stage show is at the old stage by buzz then what's being built in front of the old skyway building...

or did someone already answer this?

Ian, that is not totally true. There has been plenty of buzz online about it, and several Disney official releases about it. Just because it hasn't been posted here doesn't mean they haven't release anything about it. I think people are choosing to ignore all the information about it cause it sounds like a bad addition to Tomorrowland.

Okay, maybe saying there was "zero" press about it was a bit of an overstatement, but I certainly feel confident saying there's very little buzz.

Typically, when a new anything is being added, the fan communities light up.

I think you're right, though, that it seems like a silly addition to Tomorrowland. Stitch is like 5 years past his prime.

There is buzz online, but, you are right, not a ton. Maybe not like in the past, but there is buzz. Mostly negative though, and probably rightfully so. We'll see.

It's not.

The Magical Celebrations Stage is what's being built in the new location.

**brownie** · 03-17-2009, 01:43 PM

I'm alright with adding a stage show in Tomorrowland. At least they are still doing something.

**chrisb26** · 03-17-2009, 02:44 PM

The Galaxy Theater is almost totally gone now very little if anything remains of it. The Stitch Supersonic Celebration stage is being built next to Carousel of Progress in front of the old Skyway ride that used to run from Tomorrowland to Fantasyland.

Apparently the Stitch show will be like Turtle Talk with Crush and Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor. Personally I don't know why they need two stitch attractions in one land but maybe thats just me.

The Stitch show is going in front of the old Skyway building. The space between COP and Buzz is actually being turned into additional CM parking (sad but true). At first I didn't believe it but it's been verified by reliable sources in the media.

1. Management has no imagination anymore.

2. They like to run charcaters that have had their time in the spotlight into the ground.

3. Disney surveys say people want MORE Stitch not less.

I am kidding with the third one. But, I wouldn't doubt that would be one of the excuses given for more Stitch.

**Ian** · 03-17-2009, 04:27 PM

Think about how ridiculous this is ... they're building a Stitch attraction that uses Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor technology directly across from another Stitch attraction and directly next to Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor.

And this seemed like a good idea to someone??

**dudeman1975** · 03-17-2009, 04:53 PM

A stitch theater across from a stitch attraction, and not a very good one at that rate. The attraction may not have many seats as Disney wants people to interact with the characters.

**Celestria** · 03-17-2009, 04:59 PM

ok.. i get it now. a parking lot.... doesn't the train go by there though? (i've only been on the train 1 time in the past 5 years)

Like gothmickey said, no imagination anymore... I used to like Stitch, but I am now sick of him...

**LauraleeH** · 03-17-2009, 08:20 PM

Noooo mooooree Stiiiitch

**lindique** · 03-17-2009, 08:28 PM

I saw a Stitch show at DL Paris last year. Same technology as Turtle Talk. I didn't like it at all and couldn't wait for it to end (and I love Turtle Talk). In addition, I could hardly understand anything Stitch said - and the show was in English (they alternate English and French speaking shows). I sure hope this new one will be better than that.
