Disney announced last week that the new Disney Junior Dance party will open December 22 2018 at Disney's Hollywood Studios, and work is well underway on the exterior of the building.

Much of the "Live on Stage" signage has been removed from the front of the building, and the main entrance marquee is behind walls.

Hmm....They couldn't even use the Articulated heads for Timon and Mickey.........Lame!

This actually looks like something I would've enjoyed when I was little!

My hope is this, like Up, gets low guest satisfaction scores compared to the previous offering, and they learn from it and don't build anything this vapid again.

Agreed...especially since it’s aimed at getting the kids to move. Not much room in that venue anyways. From looking at the video, looks like it’s going to be a Fortnite dance party.

You mean like a fun puppet show? ;) This looks like a swing and a miss. At least they use more foamheads than Disneyland (er, DCA), no?

So you're the reason why Alien Encounter closed.

Not even 2 minutes in and there is already Fortnite dancing :banghead:

Hey- what’s Hollywood Studios missing? Shouting. We need more shouting.

Now I know where to take my child for their first acid trip. Yikes. Props to the CM though, she's earning her money with that awful gig.

Just skimming through your video, I'd agree. (mostly) Everyone's just standing around. I guess I was expecting to have the characters in the audience dancing around. Obviously not an attraction for me but this doesn't look like it's working.

It seems to me like this show/dance party doesn't really hit the mark in either regard. It isn't a dance party, as the kids quickly lock onto the screens and just zone out. When the characters do appear, the choreography is too difficult for pre-school kids, and they aren't able to follow along with the characters.

They had the perfect opportunity to parody Deadmau5 and blew it! Spin me out Dee Jay! *Is it really that bad? Watched the entire vid. Needs some work but it's fair considering what it is. They need to streamline the script and make more interactive. Quick Fix: Host needs jokes. Idea: Show change to "Dance Contest" with an interactive "Applause-o-meter/Get Loud" indicator. Add character judge in a CGI "Monster Inc Laugh floor" style commentary.
