As you probably know, just before he died Jim was in the process of selling his company to Disney.
As Disney's Hollywood Studios turns 30 this year, it appears that The Muppets presence in the park is being slowly phased out.

It's a great reminder of who The Muppets are for and what The Muppets can be.
Muppet*Vision 3D was the final production Jim worked on and was opened exactly one year after his death.

Below you'll find both the full Muppet*Vision 3D preshow as well as the show itself, encompassing all the elements around theater, courtesy of the same youtube account.
The fact that Muppet Vision has run countless times daily for 28 years and still holds up is a testament to Jim's legacy. We'll always wonder what couldn't have been, but we still have everything that was.
We hope Disney takes note and renews their vow to keep the magic alive.
We still miss you, Jim!
