According to this Jim Hill Media article, a new suspended coaster will be coming to Pixar Place in Disney's Hollywood Studios. It will be themed to the hanging door scenes from the Monsters Inc and will be coming in Fall 2011.

If only everything Jim Hill wrote about was true. We will have to wait.

I have no doubt that people at WDI and WDW are talking about such an attraction. Heck, I've heard of such talk myself. But theme park companies talk about a great many concepts. The trick is to be able to separate the talk that's not going to lead to a completed attraction from the talk that is leading toward a ride being built.

All talk starts with the intention of that attraction being built. But, obviously, not everything gets there.

When I first saw the movie, I thought what a great coaster the door scene would be. There have been many scenes in recent movies that could be created into awesome rides that would boggle the senses. But as everyone has pointed out, it is sadly just talk with no signs of action behind it. How I would love to sit in on those meetings!

So is it going to be a suspended or inverted coaster? The article mentions inverted, but here you say suspended. I find it hard to believe Disney would put in an inverted, as the height restriction would be too high for their liking.

I thought it was going to be Crush's Coaster? (I hope it is!)
