Animal kingdom expansion! In need of ideas

[Goofy Ninja]

It would be nice to get another merry go round. They've got an abundance of aerial carousels. Why not regular carousels?

 

[Frankenstein79]

I wonder what the music would be on dino go round. I’m thinking the ones used in restaurantosaurus… but in instrumental form.

What??? You don’t find Velociraptors to be the Michael Bolton of dinosaurs?

The Backissaurus
----- (formerly primeval whirl)
----- (mad mouse coaster, similar to goofy’s sky school)

It looks like a better version of primevil whirl. Here’s hoping I won’t feel like I’ve been in multiple car accident after it though.

Based on the name it probably still kicks your .

 

[The Great Gonzo]

If it’s like Goofy’s Sky School it should be a better experience. You’ll only feel like you’ve broken a rib or two. Rather then feeling like you’ve gone through the windshield.

 

[The Lochness Monsta]

Backissaurus sounds like a classic Mad Mouse ride, which was a staple of early carnivals and amusement areas. Like historic Coney Island in New York.

All of the these rides are definitely in upgrade over the current sad state of Dinoland.

I’d like to see a little more theming then the usual versions though. I know it’s an offshelf ride, but still it’s fricking Disney. They should at least try to be better than Six Flags.

 

[oogie boogie man]

I think Dino Drop would be a thrilling attraction, similar to what Busch Gardens has. It’s height would make it definitely one of the icons of Animal Kingdom. DD would also make Universal’s Doctor Doom Fearfall look like it’s made for babies.

 

[Goofy Ninja]

All depends on sightlines, if you still care about that anymore. I'm not sure if Disney does with what they've been doing lately.

 

[Frankenstein79]

I don't get why people go gaga for these types of rides. They usually look more thrilling then they actually are. I'd rather go on the coaster (Extinction).

 

[Rambozo]

Terrordactyl Dive
----- (formerly dinosaur, which will be moved to hollywood)
----- (flying coaster, similar to manta at sea world)

Animal Kingdom would definitely take away some parkgoers from Seaworld and Busch Gardens. If they built and fixed this section the way you laid out. Animal would become a park filled with icons and sightlines with Pandora, Everest and Dinoland.

 

[itsy bitsy spider]

Terrordactyl Dive makes perfect sense for a flying coaster. I'm too terrified to do it or Manta in Seaworld, but it does look pretty... pretty... pretty cool.

If Disney doesn't do it then Universal should jump on it. Rollercoasters and Screen rides seem to be the only things they do.

 

[The Great Gonzo]

Disney has never done this style, so it would be interesting to see their interpretation of it. Flying Coasters seem to be mostly at fairlike parks like Six Flags.

 

[The Lochness Monsta]

I'm not into these type of rides. But if it will keep people off the ones I do then I'm all for it. Rides like Alien Swirling Saucers (at Hollywood) shouldn't be a 60 minute wait.

 

[PrinceCharming617]

I would love to see some rockwork and nest areas with baby pterodactyls. That would really sell the story for the ride.

 

[Goofy Ninja]

Yep, I've been on some old ones in my day. Mostly I was afraid of them because they were so old and rickety the rollercoaster looked like it would fall apart. Nothing like a fear of dying to get your adrenaline going.

 

[Frankenstein79]

I love Dinosaur and don't really want it to become extinct. But if they can get add a lot of attractions in it's place I guess overall it's worth it.

Jungle Book
----- (formerly Kali River Rapids)
----- (the ride takes you through scenes from the animated movie. each one is accompanied by a classic song like “bear necessities” and “i wanna be like you”. which will make you want to sing along with. but you shouldn’t though, because people like me would be annoyed by it and want to toss you over)

Kali is boring so I’d be totally for a retheme of it. It seems like there’s so many awkward spots where you find yourself just staring at the strangers across from you.

 

[itsy bitsy spider]

Yeah, I don’t know why they made it so uneventful. The original tiger idea seemed much better.
