But what happens when we get six seasons and a movie?

Checklist and goals for today:
I think today each group should give a small, rough draft outline of your sub-land. This can help us not repeat IPs and keep us on track for the rest of the week. I think another we need to do is cap off a limit of attractions, dining, shows, and retail per subland so it isn't too crowded. Also, I think @Mickeynerd17 is the only person left that needs to pick a job. I will start to fill in the list with all of the attrations and stuff once groups submit them.
CASTLE COURTYARD ( @Pi on my Cake @Outbound )
LONDON SPRING ( @AceAstro )
SUMMER FESTIVAL ( @NateD1226 @b-wolf95 )
FALL FOREST ( @NigelChanning @pix @Brer Panther )
WINTER MOUNTAIN ( @DashHaber @PerGron )
PRINCESS E-TICKET ( @NigelChanning09 )
GARDEN OF SEASONS ( @D Hindley )

Garden of Seasons is the hub island based exclusively on Fantasia. The only attraction will be the Carousel of the Seasons (name up for discussion) built into and around the land’s main weenie, the Season Tree (name?), a big magical (maple?) tree which exists in all four seasons at once.
This subland is like DAK’s Discovery Island, full of relaxing walking trails, and river rocks magically shaped to resemble Fantasia characters. It is surrounded by the E-ticket’s waterways. There will be no shops or dining here, with the possible exception of a single merch cart.
Since Garden of Seasons is so simple, I offer to help elsewhere as needed. I’d like to tackle Fantasyland’s other ~2 flat rides, which will be visible from GoS, if that’s OK with my teammates.
My first task will be doing concert art for the Season Tree, which has the potential to define much of our Fantasyland’s overall aesthetic.
As a small reminder, please include me and @TheOriginalTiki in any brainstorming PMs as you split into groups.

Spring:
Front half: Cherry Tree Lane/ London for a Mary Poppins ride and maybe a 101 Dalmatians thing.
Transitions to the back half being more forestry. Here will feature a Bambi ride (not sure what) and a Hundred Acres Woods Meet and Greet (no ride).
One thing I want your thoughts on (probably @D Hindley is the use of Fantasia outside the hub). I mentioned a couple pages ago about a trackless dancing ride themed to the Mushrooms from Fantasia and I feel like it’d work perfectly in Spring but that ask puts Fantasia on two lands.

A second small note: this project is due Wednesday night.
My birthday is Tuesday. My goal is to have the entire spring section (or at least 90% of it) done Monday night because I really don’t know my availability Tuesday all day/ Wednesday morning

Here's a thought! I could expand Garden of Seasons to include ALL our 3 flat rides - the Carousel, a Fantasia Mushroom ride, and perhaps a flying spinner like Dumbo based on the Pegasuses from Pastoral Symphony (other suggestions?). Would anyone mind that?
For the Fantasia Mushroom ride, while trackless like Luigi's works, I feel a smaller & simpler spinning flat is better suited for Fantasyland (something like DisneySea's Scuttle's Scooters or even Teacups again), preserving trackless for Tomorrowland if we like.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY @AceAstro!

I feel like a simpler flat ride definitely works! Luigi’s was just my first thought but I like the idea of saving it for Tomorrowland.Here's a thought!

I’ll leave you to deciding the ride system as I feel like any of them will work!

Oh I meant to add Bambi to the forest section I totally missed it.
I was thinking a Toy Story Mania shooting ride for it!
...Too Soon? I do want to put Bambi in there I just don’t have any ideas yet for a ride story/ system

I think with Bambi a story is barely even needed. It is such an atmospheric film, all you really need is to have some charming vignettes in some beautiful environments. And maybe the forest fire or some wolves for a brief finale to give it a bit of energy.

So, for the Castle Courtyard me and @Outbound are doing, I assume we are gonna be going lighter on IP or use them in more general ways? There's not a real ride here, but probably streetmosphere or two and a few shops/dining. A couple interactive experiences like BBBoutique or the Sword in the Stone.
That sound more or less right?

Actually, this ride might be scrapped! We’re rethinking Garden of Seasons to host all three flat rides, each of them Fantasia themed.

That’s true. It’d probably be a C/D-Ticket so Thumper can be the “tour” guide!

I agree. Bambi is such a beautiful movie, adding a story to the scenery may actually take away from it
