Additions to Every Land

[LiTtLeMeRmAiD]

If you had the authority to add ONE item (attraction, eatery, shop, entertainment) to each land at Disneyland, what would you choose? Would they be items brought back from mothballs (subs, skyway...) or something of your own creation?

For each land at DL, tell us what you'd like to add with a description of how it would fit with the land's theming and how it would better the experience of guests in that land.

ick skyway I hope they burn those buildings down someday


Anywho I think I would change the Tarzan treehouse in adventureland

simply rename it Adventureland treehouse, ditch the plastic Tarzan characters inside it and add back in the elaborate water system (but leave some of the interactive tarzan stuff there),

I would then add a real couger (or whatever I'm typing to fast to spell correctly) to were the plastic one was and have it sleeping but every so often it opens it's eyes and roars or yawns a bit at the tourists that walk past ,

then add a few tikiroom esque parrats to the tree that sometimes start humming music or spouting lines from nearby attractions. Youknow sometimes starting to sing "in the tiki tiki tiki tiki tiki room" or whilsting Indiana Jones or a whole new world, perhaps one might even sometimes shout out "dead men tell no tales"

I would leave the basecamp alone so that they could still have tarzan meet and greet stuff down there and so that they could still have all that interactive tarzan crud at the bottum

So basicaly I'd mix the two treehouse's together and come out with something that's better

Dont have time to do every land right now so I will do one, and come back to it later.

I would bring back a subs ride. But not the campy 50's version, something all new based on the same idea, where we explore the depths of the ocean and see people actually living in buildings on the ocean floor. We see how they get most of their consumables from the ocean itself the way Jules Verne's capatin Nemo did, but as a reality in the future. Involve actual scientists in the project, and ask them what they think is possible to be in store for life on the ocean in the future. Make far more realistic AA's that are enclosed in their own little domes in a such a way that you cant tell they are, so they dont get actually wet, and can move more freely and are easier to repair. Add a bit of a walled backdrop that blends in along the tracks, and use special projectors to project on the backside of them schools of fish and other background type swimming/moving things. Make the ride as futuristic and as real as possible. As part of the project, on the fantasyland side of the lagoon have a sunken ship restaurant themed to the little mermaid. As guests dined they could look out the portholes and see ariel and her sisters swim by. You could even make a very small short dark ride on little mermaid that winds in and out of the restaurant so it basically occupies the same space. That way you have the kinetic energy of themed little boats going past like blue bayou, and also the mini "shows" of mermaids outside the portholes.

This would essentually give you 3 attractions in one space, with the ship restaurant acting as a buffer between fantasyland and tomorrowland.

I agree with Tigertail. would reinvent subs as a high tech true E plus. With real piranhas this time.

[swagdaddy]

Tomorrowland - Rockets back on the platform
Fantasyland - Remove the "Light Magic" towers on Small World way
Toontown - Duckburg addition
Frontierland - Western River Expedition
Adventureland - Restore treehouse to original state "Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse"
New Orleans Square - Add more street entertainment (Maybe a Marti Gras streetacular?)
Critter Country - Evict Pooh and give the real Bears their home back!

[Star Speeder]

Toontown: Add a Toontown studio tour attractoin.

Critter country: Add a new ride. Bring back the Country Bears.

[dshimel]

What's the budget?

[LiTtLeMeRmAiD]

Tigertail, I love love LOVE that idea! The coziness of DL is that so much is crammed into one space, integrating things into each other that have similar themes and thus utilizing all resources. Plus I have a soft spot for Ariel and her friends...can you tell?

Swagdaddy, I pretty much agree with each thing you said, especially the Country Bears, Swiss Family Treehouse and Mardi Gras ideas. The streets of NOS would be so perfect for that kind of "show" and they could run short celebrations a couple times a day, similar to how they are now doing celebrations on Main Street.

What's the budget?

Funds are undetermined, you can do whatever you want for ONE addition to each land. Let's be slightly realistic though keeping in mind what would actually improve the park and please guests rather than adding over-the-top oddball things that would just never happen.

Keep 'em comin' guys!

Main Street USA: Mary Poppins Jolly Holiday Tea Garden replaces Plaza Gardens.

Adventureland: Tahitian Terrace returns

Tomorrowland: Revised Adventure Thru Inner Space

[SurfedUpDane]

Tomorrowland: Bring back Rocketrods and Subs. Add a new E or D ticket in place of innoventions. And a new style train station.

Fabulous Idea!

As far as toontown is concerned, they really need a water ride! If any of you have been to Islands of Adventure in Orlando, then you know how successful zanny, cartoon-themed water attractions are. And in a place that is nearly all cement and reaches scorching temperatures at midday, this would be very useful indeed. While they are at it, go ahead and use some of the extra room they will have after removing chip n' dales treehouse for an elaborate queue!

[imagineer boy]

Main Street: Place a live stage show theater in Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln ( after the 50th exibit is gone of course ) and make it a theater that has shows similar to Encore! at TDS

Adventureland: Good bye Tarzan! Hello Swiss family robinson

New Orleans Square: I LOVE the mardi gras celebration ideas

Critter Country: Add a dark ride based off of the Ranger Woodlore and Humphey cartoons. Ooh, and maybe Ice pooh, return country bears, and move pooh attraction to The festival arena area ( with enterance in the place of the Sky way station. )

Frontierland: Add a new B or C ticket in the festival arena

Fantaseyland: Like I said before, move pooh to have the show building in the festival arena and have the enterance be put in the place of the sky way building.

Toon Town: Add the Toon Trolly simulator ride idea.

Tomorrowland: Put the Tomorrowland Transit Authority like WDW's on the old people mover track, and bring in a new and improved subs.

[Cuzco-topia]

Add a coffee cart to every land!!!

[Jspider]

in this mouseplanet article http://www./parkupdates/dlr/dlr030707.htm

there was talk about a two story river bell terrance addition, it sounds interesting what ever happend to that (not that I'm sure I want to spend my imaginary addition on it but it seems like a promising idea)

[merlinjones]

Oh, I forgot about ToonTown:

Uncle Scrooge's Money Bin!

[LiTtLeMeRmAiD]

The moneybin WOULD be cute...

I think we have so many good ideas on this site! And I know it's been mentioned that Disney won't use outsider ideas because of legal junk...but what if we ALL say that we give up the rights and swear not to sue??? Wouldn't we rather have some of this stuff come to fruition so we can enjoy it rather than sue Disney for a messy court case we probably won't win?
