One could say you are a Winnie the Purist?
That won't be the last of my bad puns.

This was just the chapter of the book that the original was based upon. Also, Happy PotC 50th everyone!When anyone gets the chance I found this Pooh short story that could work for a ride!

Before we go ahead with anything just wanted to let everyone know what my plans for the attraction were. I will definitely alter them but I have some things we should take into consideration. I thought the attraction should go in Critter Country beside FL to better expand the hundred acre woods. Then Critter Country would have Splash, Country Bears maybe, and Pooh. My idea was that there would be three attractions based on the three featurettes that made up the original movie. Blustery day would be the dark ride, honey tree would be the flat ride, and tigger too would be the play area. I'm fine with modifying the story of Blustery day, but I strongly feel that Pooh does not work with a focused narrative. The more recent Pooh movies were decent, but their narratives were too focused, and they became stale fast. What made the original so good were the scenes and the character's personalities.
That's fine, my one fear with this would be having Pooh and Splash both be water rides right next to each other. Though Pirates I guess is next to Splash in WDW so it might not be that big of a deal -- just an observation

I'll side with changing the story. I don't have many ties to Pooh, but it would be fun to come up with a different kind of attraction rather than what has already been done.
I'm good with the idea of Critter Country, though I thought Pooh was going to be on the outskirts of Fantasyland being the transition into Frontierland?

No, people keep getting this confused so it's okay. My idea from the start is that none of the main 4 (or 5 if we do this for main street) would touch each other, but that transition lands that fit some of the themes from both lands would be between them. Critter would be beside FL and Frontierland because CC has animated charcaters, but some outdoors and western themes as well.
Alrighty then -- I'm only saying that it's never been on any of the maps so that's where the confusion comes from haha.

Sorry about the miscommunication
. It's my fault. Let's just focus on FL for now.

On a different topic, I wonder how many people I tell today that it's Pirates 50th will be shocked?
Probably quite a few -- it's a classic indeed!
Also @Brer Oswald -- I'll ask you here since you're online, but I know some people are eager to begin brainstorming on the World's Fair mini-land and Discoveryland.
Think we could start a new thread for that brainstorming while we finish up Fantasyland? Fantasyland IP wise is pretty much set, it's just about doing the content for the most part now

I'm thinking those can be combined together so it doesn't saturate the brainstorming -- but it gives others an opportunity to brainstorm other things and not have to wait around for when we finish.

Personally I'm interested in 20K Leagues and Small World when doing these lands.I'm thinking those can be combined together so it doesn't saturate the brainstorming -- but it gives others an opportunity to brainstorm other things and not have to wait around for when we finish.

I know people talked about using a sub for the Atlantis ride, but personally, I think this vehicle is cooler and is more vital in the film anyways.
Maybe the underwater expedition could be the queue/preshow, while these take you to the lost city.
