I hope this is as successful as Rocket Rods. This is the stupidest move in the history of the Resort by the self-styled Einsteins who run the company. Failure is practically guaranteed.

Blah....Blah...Blah

Great move by Disney! No one under the age of 40 knows what the twilight zone is. Guardians will be around a long time. Walt always wanted the parks evolving. Keeping the themes within the Disney universe just makes sense.

Whoever is running Disney should be voted out. I could run it way better than they have. I understand needing new attractions but the word is new not rehabbed. This lacks imagination.

Disney is so cheap. The billions they spend on Disney Springs, Avatar, Star Wars, etc. And for what? Months and months of construction, increasing ticket prices, and end result attractions that lack soul or story or experience. Epcot is a sham. Hollywood Studios is a half-day park at best.

This is why Universal is pulling ahead on nearly every front. They still have passion there.

I am absolutely disappointed to see Twilight Zone Tower of Terror go. And while I agree that some, if not all, of the latest Disney park efforts have been motivated by the almighty dollar rather than innovation and creativity, a very sore subject for some, myself included, I think this attraction has potential to be something really neat. I have faith that the Imagineers will create the best attraction they can with the resources at their disposal. If Disney wants to re-purpose attractions instead of starting from scratch, a move I am by no means happy with, then so be it. Onward and upward, I guess? No? No, I get it. This doesn't make a lot of sense in the context of the park, but perhaps in the future, it will be part of a greater whole.

As an aside, this article is confusing. First talking about how the exterior plans have gotten a major downgrade, then later talking about how subtlety has gone out the window? Make up your mind. You either want detail or you don't. The looming tower structure is already not subtle, so let's put things in perspective here.

I feel that rides that try this sort of stuff fail. Nobody knew of Guardians of the Galaxy until the movie which shows how unknown the series is and plus I feel that Disney might back track on it since look what happened to 'Enchanted Tiki Room Under New Management' which lost its character overlay and Stitch's Great Escape possibly being removed and with people crying for ExtraTERRORestial to return.

seems recently the biggest thing from Disney is hype and NOT performance. A good example was the Fantasyland expansion at Magic Kingdom.....yes it opened up traffic, but the rides are a major disappointment. About time Disney delivers something new and spectacular, instead of converting existing rides (Norway's log ride and now Tower of Terror at Hollywood Studios).....we're not amused by your cheap bait and switch and at the point neither of these changes will bring a significant increase in visitors as evidenced by this years low head counts.

This fiasco is probably being brought to you by the same geniuses who thought a chain saw act was a great replacement for Off Kilter at the Canadian pavilion in Epcot. I think it's sad to say that we have entered the era of "profits above all" and "quality concepts and imagineering cost too much so slap some crap up and raise the prices". It's awful to watch the absolute degradation of something great into a cheap, low quality experience.
