Smile Create Your Dream Attraction

You've been given permission to create a new attraction in Disneyland Park. You are free to do whatever you want, be it re-design an existing attraction, replace a ride with a completely new one, or even remodel some of the layout. How would you improve Disneyland?

Re: Create Your Dream Attraction

Combine education with entertainment, a ride plot never before seen, easily interchangeable plotlines and spherical immersion... yes, spherical.

Re: Create Your Dream Attraction

Hmmmm...well, my choice is a grand adventure on the scale of Indy, but something appropriate to a new Tomorrowland, located in the space where Innoventions currently is. I still haven't decided on the specifics, though.

Re: Create Your Dream Attraction

I would want to make an "interactive" attraction. Where the rider would get to decide which way to go, who to see, and what to do. Maybe to the theme of Wall-E. You could be a robot kind of like Wall-E and youre trying to find him or something. At the end of the ride you get some kind of cheap little toy. Like a necklace or a sticker to kinda promote the ride or movie. The kind of toy you get depends on where and what you decide to do in the ride. The ride could be called... Finding Wall-E!

Re: Create Your Dream Attraction

If as indicated there are no restrictions then I would build only attractions on the scale and scope of Pirates of the Caribbean, the same length of ride, make it accessible to all ages and disabilities. And full of AA figures.

I would start in Tomorrowland and make an attraction where you travel into deep space explore alien worlds and encounter strange aliens and machines etc all in the detail and scope of POTC.

Secondly I would do the same in Adventureland make an attraction similar to Indian Jones or just expand it again with the same scope, depth, detail and lengh of POTC and make it so all can ride, make it a multi vehicle experience possibly in water on land etc and if necessary have one of the computer controlled vehicles be modifed on one car for the disabled, little kids and grand parents to ride on. Current Indy is great but it is just too one dimensional an attraction it needs more story more depth and some slower ooh and ahh parts lol not just fast action all the way.

Re: Create Your Dream Attraction

a fantasia ride, haunted mansion scale if not bigger.
individual ride transports though, like peter pan.

flying through beautiful forests with the satyrs and bald mountain and the end would be the room filling with water and that whole scene with mickey.

I would love a ride like this IF it was a hopeful, educational look at alien worlds. Trying to scare people with an Aliens type ride would be run of the mill, showing the wonders of the universe with a Star Trek: Voyager type ride could be interesting. I want to travel to exotic planets, star systems and galaxies, see black holes and supernovae, etc. with some alien cultures thrown into the mix.

Adventure land type rides are great, jungles, exotic animals, mysteries - but here's the problem with Disneyland - if you add a new ride, you'd have to remove either Indy or Jungle Cruise. :shakes head:
