Disney has finally revealed the story behind Monstropolis at Disney's Hollywood Studios, and we're breaking down everything announced. From H.U.M.A.N. Day and the Department of Human Relations to Harryhausen's Restaurant, the Glob Theater, and new details about the highly anticipated Monsters, Inc. door coaster, Disney is beginning to paint a clearer picture of what guests can expect when they step into Monstropolis. We discuss why Disney chose to set the land after the events of Monsters, Inc., whether H.U.M.A.N. Day is a clever storytelling solution, what these new details mean for Hollywood Studios, and the question many fans are still asking: was it worth losing MuppetVision 3D?
