 Twitter Rumor: Stitch closing 2013
I saw this rumor making the rounds on twitter the other day. The prevailing thought is that once FLE is completed and they have some more attractions eating up capacity, Stitch will be closed. For what who knows but that is what was going around pure speculation and rumor.

Close it for good today as far as I'm concerned.

Fine if they intend on doing something worthwhile with the space, but if it just ends up being another vacant building then I'd rather they leave it. It still draws in some crowds and keeps them away from the good attractions.

Blowing it up would be more approrpiate. Or, demolition with a wrecking ball, in an elaborate ceremony with lots of media presence.
I actually liked it when it was Alien Encounter. Thought it was original and unique and it scared the pants off of me the first time!

I'm with Ian - keep it open if it's just going to be a vacant building.

If TDO had any sense of humor at all they'd run a contest where the grand prize was the chance to press the "virtual plunger" that "blew up" the show building.
Maybe they could use the projector technology they use for the Castle show to simulate the explosion.

I sure hope this rumor proves to be true! The worst attraction in all of WDW and I wouldn't be sorry to see it go.

Alien encounter was soooo scary! Loved that! (use to love the line in the head speakers of some guy saying "it looks like my mother in law lol!) Stitch well I can definitely do without. Plus I can't even remember the last time I went in there. Hopefully they will bring something good! Please Disney don't let it be empty for long! Hopefully they have plans for something else to take its place.

I preferred Alien Encounter, but I like Stitch, and since it's a favorite of my kids, I'm sorry to hear it might go. If a fabulous attraction goes in it's place, I'll accept its departure, but if it turns into a Princess Meet and Greet, a half-hearted replacement, or worst of all, a vacant structure, then what's the point? 
Maybe they could make it a Creature Cantina?

I wouldn't take any talk on Twitter to be serious... With that said, if Stitch closed tomorrow I wouldn't miss it, even though he is one of my favorite characters... The attraction is just, eh...

TRICIA JONES: I heard that you were going to propose to Brandi Svenning at some theme park. When are men going to learn that women want ROMANCE, not Mr. Toad's Wild Ride...
BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

Whatever they do, I hope Disney finds a way to re-purpose that incredible Stitch animatronic in a worthwhile way. It's a fantastic figure in an absolute waste of an attraction.

The only thing worse than Stitch's bad breath would be no breath.
If they aren't going to replace it with something, I would rather it remain open.

Ditto I do not want another meet and greet. If there are no plans than just leave it until they have come up with something really really cool.
