This was a really big news week in the world of Disney, and there was no bigger piece of information coming forth than that of the Sorcerer’s Hat at Disney’s Hollywood Studios getting the boot. Yes, come January, it will begin to be on its way out for good, and this is after years and years of rumors that it would be taken out.
With the Sorcerer’s Hat leaving, the new case of rumors is what could replace it? Well, that is…if anything is even going to replace it. Personally, I’d be fine with an empty space like it used to be, but that’s none of my business. (Kermit?)
None the less, let’s catch up on all the news from the past week in the Doctor Disney Weekly Wrap-Up!
Join the “I’m So Disney…” group on Facebook to discuss this and many other Disney things with anyone and everyone.
