The name change has been expected but it is not quite what many thought….many thought that they would change the name to Disney-Pixar Studio’s in light of Disneys purchase of Pixar or Disney-ABC studios because of its ownership of the tv channel.

The new name is to be Disney-Hollywood Studios which is in step with the parks future development plans as well as the general theme of the park.

Disney and MGM had been locked in a legal battle over the usage of the MGM name but Disney say this has no bearing on the decision.
