To be fair, I don't know enough about the shows or restaurants at other Disney parks to put any in my list, but here's what I would like to see based on what I've seen from Disney parks in general:

My formatting is as follows:
Ride from other park - Location - What it's Replacing

1. Hotel Hightower - Tokyo DisneySea - Mission Breakout (Keeping in mind TZ ToT will remain in Florida)
2. Mystic Manor - Hong Kong Disneyland - Hyperion Theater and the studio to its North.
3. Journey to the Center of the Earth - Tokyo DisneySea - Incredicoaster and perhaps Pixar Pier gets a brand new layout / renovation
4. Expedition Everest - WDW - Grizzly River Run (as much as i'd hate taking out a non-IP, GRR never did much for me)
5. Frozen Ever After - WDW - Little Mermaid Ride (even though it's IP and Frozen, I have to admit this attraction looks pretty advanced)

No rules except you can only list 5 overall things, keep in mind what we already have at DL and DCA as well. You can list the locations if you really want to as well.

I hate parks cloning other parks signature attractions, so I'd almost prefer across the board none of the suggestions. :depressed:

But that said in the spirit of things...

I would like an adaptation (not direct clone) of
1. Shanghai's Challenge Trail - Redwood Creek Challenge Trail.
2. Country Bears Jamboree - Redwood Creek Challenge Trail.
3. Disneyland Skyway - Modernization of the concept, through the Pier into the Redwood area.
4. Coco's likely cancelled overlay in the Mexico Pavilion - Paradise Gardens/Goofy Skyschool area.

I agree for the most part, but I think it really comes down to what a signature attraction is. For instance, Expedition Everest is for sure Animal Kingdom's signature attraction. Dinosaur? Not so much.

I dislike Dinosaur... so why would we even clone it? :p

But yes I agree. Clones of the side-attractions are more palatable. Co-builds of attractions are also reasonably palatable if it's planned that way. But most parks I can point to one attraction that really should never be lifted from it. I feel way more strongly about uniqueness and custom-designed for the park it is in than IP usage.

Twilight Zone Tower of Terror - DHS - GOTG: Mission Breakout

Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway - DHS - Sunset Theatre / Monsters Inc. / whatever space they need from the Hollywood Backlot

Tron Light Cycle Run - Shanghai Disneyland - Innoventions building/ portion of Autopia / Subs (keeping lagoon) Side Note: I don’t think this makes Space Mountain obsolete. Would Frozen Ever After make Mr. Toads Wild Ride obsolete? No.

Mystic Manor - Hong Kong Disneyland - Redwood Creek Challenge Trail

BATB dark ride or Frozen dark ride (whichever ends up being better) - Tokyo Disneyland/ Tokyo Disney Sea- Motorboat Cruise area/ portion of Autopia


Honorable Mentions:

Expedition Everest- Two big snowy mountains at one resort is overkill and I’m not sacrificing Matterhorn

Avatar Flight of Passage: No realistic place to put this at DLR unless they turn Grizzly Peak into Pandora so.... No.

Mary Poppins Dark ride - it hasn’t been announced so it does not qualify.

Peter Pans Flight- Shanghai - Fantasyland Theatre (Including Neverland Miniland) A few years ago I wouldn’t have proposed this. But they ruined the London scene in the last update. The overheard track is so rough and this ride could be so much more. The line clogs up the Fantasyland entrance from the castle and there isn’t much they can do about it. But in the end, I can’t give the green light to get rid of the original. Plus there is nothing current Disney/ WDI could do in that leftover space when you consider Cal- OSHA regulations. Plus In this fantasy exercise it would pretty lame to replace a ride with the more or less the same basic ride experience.

Shanghai’s POTC- ok not the ride. But basically everything about it except the IP. The scale, the integration of screens, Ride system and new tech.

Pooh’s Hunny Hunt- Tokyo Disneyland- The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train - MK- looks like a Cool ride but nowhere to put it

Btw - did you really want to know peoples answers? Or was this some test to see how many people can follow the time consuming format you laid out (especially on mobile). Lol

I’ve tried making the anti-cloning argument before (I think with respect to Tron) but have been shot down. I don’t understand why people prefer clones over original attractions. My guess it stems from an assumption they’ll never visit the international parks?
