Not that I am against character attractions, I'm not necessarily, I just know that things don't have to be character fed to be "Disney." And you can reference Pirates, Huanted, Thunder, Space, the original Subs, Matterhorn, Jungle Cruise exc.

Originally Posted By Schmitty Good Vibes I have no idea what the Imagineers may be planning, but I'm pretty sure that they won't be changing "Screamin'" the ride. You are going around 40 - 50 miles per hour (sometimes more), and there isn't any opportunity to see any tableaus. You can barely see the tabeaus added to the Matterhorn, and you are only going about 20 mph on that attraction. What I’m gathering is that they would like to improve the queue with a Villains / fun house theme. I hope they do, because the queue for Screamin’ is just dreadful.

Originally Posted By Hans Reinhardt It would add nothing. The ride is already themed. You are supposed to be riding a coaster at a seaside pier. There are all manner of things they could do to enhance that storyline. Adding Disney villans isn't one of them.
Originally Posted By RogRabbit Exactly plpeters, just a normal funhouse would be great, there doesn't have to be a character to every ride. And besides the queue to Screamin may be boring but the Matterhorn's queue isn't all that entertaining either, since it is just circling the mountian. Now I'm up for a villains rollercoaster, but over in DL (Big Thunder Ranch specifically).
Originally Posted By GhostHost2 I like the idea of a Disney Villians roller coaster, however with Screamin already built there isn't much you could do outside of a better queue. Now the poster above me mentioned Big Thunder Ranch for a Disney Villians Coaster. That is a good idea. I think the Ranch is located in a place where the ride could still be part of Fantasyland, and Fantasyland is where I want a Disney Villians roller coaster.

Not really viginetes, but rather track areas themed to supersized villians. Of course with a new soundtrack.
Originally Posted By EighthDwarf I'm not sure the Diseny Villains theme fits in very well with the new Victorian theming at the pier. Perhaps they could use Victorian era scientifc theming (think Jules Verne) and enclose the pre-launch part of the ride to set the stage for the ride's story. Maybe early experimentation of rocket propulsion? My point is I think they could do something creative (and new) that uses the theming better than their played-out animated classics.
