Here's the thing- the rumors are stronger. Looks like mid September is the time to close DCA's TOT for the overlay. No news on WDW. (Again, these are just rumors!!)
I can't fathom it, but I'm biased as TOT is my favourite ride regardless of location. The atmosphere and Imagineering is perfect to the last minute detail, and it upsets me that they'd change it. I mean, since Guardians of the Galaxy had such a stellar soundtrack and fast paced theme, why not incorporate it into the Rock n' Roller Coaster? I'm grasping straws but I personally believe this IP grab has to stop.

It's not "just a rumor from an online forum." It was dropped by a VERY reliable source, not just some random poster. As much as I am not a fan of Spirit, his track record is very good.

Tower of Terror and Rock n Roller Coaster won't get returned since their nowhere near the Star Wars area of Hollywood Studios plus fans would flip out if both rides were removed or changed.

There is NO WAY Tower of Terror is going anywhere. It is too popular of an attraction as it is now.

I do believe we will see a new skin for Rock 'n' Rollercoaster, though. With Areosmith no longer together and Steven Tyler looking like an 80 year old woman, something more contemporary is needed. I think painting the track black and trying to emulate a space ship ride in either the Star Wars or Guardians of the Galaxy universes is the most likely change we will see.

I would hope that these are just rumors, and never end up happening. While I am not a huge fan of riding ToT, since I hate drops, it is a Disney Icon. They have taken out other icons in recent years, such as the Sorcerers Hat, and ToT still remains a really popular ride. Furthermore, Tot is such a beautiful picture opportunity. If they do give it an overhaul, I think it would be highly disappointed. It is going to alienate fans of the parks, and only draw fans of certain movie franchises. As for RocknRoller Coaster, the only thing that could use an update is the video before the ride. The ride itself is, like ToT, a huge fan favorite. It is one of only 2 or 3 roller coasters that I will do, and I have never met someone who rode it and had a bad experience, although I am sure that has happened. If it ain't broke, don't fix it Disney. If you really want to make this Gotg plan to happen, make it its own world, like how Universal did The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. But don't take out or overhaul rides that your loyal fan base love!

If they do this I think it should be a new ride/show/building. Leave RNRRC and ToT alone. Stop taking current rides and changing them. Heck build the 5th gate. That's been rumored for years...

I am very unhappy with all of the switching and changing. As it is they keep taking away beloved rides. It was enough for them to take out Maelstrom, to change over everything to Star Wars and now to think about taking out an attraction such as the Tower of Terror? It's ridiculous and frankly, borderline offensive. Keep the parks classic. Walt would be very upset if he could see what's going on today.

They CANNNOT GET RID OF ROCK AND ROLLERCOASTER! That is the best ride in Disney and a rethemeing would ruin the ride. Kids who are guardians of the galaxy fans would not want to go on a 3 inversion loop coaster. Aerosmith fits perfectly and the attraction should be updated with Aerosmith's new look currently.

If this happens, more time & money for me to spend at Universal.

Disney, wake up. We like you, we really do. We want to support you and do often. You have iconic rides, that if you mess-with...you mess with your fanbase's childhoods & times of enjoyment.

Don't mess with a passionate fanbase's fond memories. See the disastrous results from the Fantastic Four movie to see what happens if you do.

Can you imagine how great a Marvel land could be if they used all of the Hollywood area? That is a LOT of land. Raze everything but Tower and the theater and start over.
