I am going to post two of my ideas right now. IDEA #1: History of Disney Animation Park: DHS/DCA Park Loctaion: Animation Courtyard/Hollywood Backlot Replacing?: One Man's Dream (moves to DCA) Voyage of Mermaid, if needed Magic of Animation/Not sure Ride Style: Great Movie Ride Ride: Ride through some of the greatest scenes in Disney's long History of Animation greatness. Other Notes: I have about 60-70 possible show scenes divided into three sections: Short Subject, Feature, and TV. IDEA #2: Phineas and Ferb's Tour of Walt Disney World Park: DHS Park Location: Streets of America Replacing?: Pizza Planet (move to Pixar Place) Ride Style: Interactive Motion Simulator Ride: Phineas and Ferb try to give you a tour of WDW while dealing with Candace, Dr.Doofenshmirtz, and other surprises. Other Notes: The ride would be produced by the regulars of the series: Fans would get to choose where the go multiple times, creating a unique adventure everytime. I will add stuff about these ride s into other posts, such as queue ideas and other specifics.

I know that Disneyland doesn't particularly enjoy bringing back oldies but goodies, but how does a revamped Rainbow Mine Train sound? The new queue can be at the petting zoo or thereabouts and can pretty much retrace its steps around the island less the area now taken up by BTRR. That kind of went through my head the last time I looked out across that bridge to the abandoned tunnel.

Originally Posted By Disney and beyond I'm against adding a ride in Canada if it means taking away the Canada Film. I am in Love with CircleVision, and The Canada movie is both beautiful and hilarious, Martin Short put a much needed spark in Park Films. Anyway, I guess I should mention some of the inspiration for these rides. History of Disney Animation was mostly inspired from two films: Song of the South and The Great Mouse Detective. I was riding Splash Mountain and thinking "A majority of these people don't even know where these characters come from." Later, I was watching The Great Mouse Detective and thinking "I wish these characters could be reintroduced" I then thought "I wish there was a way to educate the public about films they have no clue about" and then it hit me. I had originally only planned to use Animated features, but then The Band Concert and Darkwing Duck inspired me to add Short Subject and TV to the mix. I've been working on and off on this one for about a year and a half, and It is ready to pitch to Disney (You know, if I could) The Second one came to me last month while at Disney. I thought an interactive motion simulator would be a cool experiance, but I couldn't think of a real good themeing for it. Then I went to Blizzard Beach and my sister joked to me that it was S'winter, as a reference to the Phineas and Ferb episode. I chuckled, and then the lightbulb went off in my head.

You can go to any walmart and buy a little car for your kid to drive around these days. Autopia is outdated and way too big. That spot needs a nice E-ticket.. I vote for your History of Animation ride though.. If not that, maybe a dazzling Mary Poppins dark ride.. Imagine soaring over the rooftops of Edwardian London, or The Jolly Holiday scene...

Originally Posted By EighthDwarf I agree about Autopia....I would love to see that ripped out and something more creative (and themed correctly) go in. Maybe some sort of speeders racing through a space-age city (test track style). Or a Mission Space clone. Or even both.
Originally Posted By 2PrincessMom I would love to see the potential show scenes...The Great Movie Ride is one of my favorites, I'd love to see a Disney version. And my girls would absolutely love the Phineas and Ferb option, even if it is relatively new show...they just crack up over Dr. Doofenschmirtz. What about a Hunchback ride...in the likes of Peter Pan...couldn't you just see flying over Notre Dame?
Originally Posted By Disney and beyond My Potentional show scenes list has been delayed a bit, but I'm telling you, it is superlong. I've got some interesting choices on there (One of which I KNOW will garner some controversy)

Originally Posted By JobyCA65 I would like to see something less thrill ride and more educational in Tomorrowland. Along the lines of a Mission to Mars-type adventure, or Adventures Through Inner Space. Or a Circlevision type movie that is designed like the planetarium movie at Griffith Park. It would be a space related movie that surrounds you, and could be both educational and an attraction that would bring back shades of the old Tomorrowland. And bring back the Peoplemover, with a track that discusses what the guests are seeing, at the same time it makes mention of future innovations that are on the horizon. Sort of an "imagine a world where...." track that you listen to while riding the PM attraction. I'd rather not see another movie tie-in....at least in Tomorrowland.

I have not thought about a story, but maybe it will be like a version of "Fantasmic", but with transportation, and you would be the one to face the villains. They should also do something like the Universal Horror Make-up Show, located at the Universal Studios theme park in Orlando, Florida, but being based on Disney films. Mansioncaribbean

Have the carts upgraded so two people can sit in the carts. Have sun blocking walls so people will be more comfortable while waiting for the coaster with a comic like art telling the story of who Gadget Hackwrench is (as time goes by and Disney continues not to marketing of the character or use so more and more kids don’t know her (I personally believe Disney is trying hard make people forget their Disney Television Animated characters which is beyond a shame)) and the story of the creation of the coaster (even better if they could make it an indoor wait line section that plays a video of the tale plus some words from Gadget herself from multiple televisions. This will help the coaster, help the guests and help Gadget herself. Also repaint the mailbox to read “Gadget Hackwrench” instead of “Gadget Inventor” as Hackwrench is her last name. Otherwise keep Toontown refurbished (it needs the repair and an updated (without removing Gadget’s and Roger’s Ride).

Maybe a ride in TomorrowLand that incorporates the riders to be actively involved with what is going on (similar to Astro Blasters and Toy Story Mania)? I think of touch screens, motion sensoring, when I mention this... but I have no clue what it would be lol. I do know that I find those rides to be fun, though!
Originally Posted By lesmisfan I would love to see an indoor mouse coaster, similar to crush's coaster in paris but themed to the emperors new groove. you could be in that vehical kronk an ezma go in as they go to their secret lair and you can also use it to tyring to find kuzko who is trying to escape yzmas clutches chasing him all around his country.
