It's a theme park built into a cruise ship.
It's based on an old Disney Imagineering concept called the S.S. Disney that was scrapped.

Alrighty - so here's a mock up of the park (more art to come tonight)
I tried to fit all of your guys' ideas into here.
@Ranky64 - your It's Tough to be a Bug is located in the area labeled (ittbab) the cool thing about a ship is that all the show buildings and stuff can go below deck!
@IAmNotAHufflepuff - your Cinderella dark ride idea is there too - it's part of Cinderella's castle on the right
@Simon Sulk - your ideas will be seen on the next art piece from above (the side angle couldn't fit CoP since its on the other side of the ship
)@orlando678- I put Soarin' in too - it's the building to the right of Around the World in 80 Days which is the giant hot art balloon above.
Concept for the overview of the park taken from above the top deck of the ship (where the attractions are) Each should be labeled...the right side got cut off a little with the names, but it's not too bad.
Wanted to see what everyone thought of doing 20K in a dark ride format like @Simon Sulk suggested for Journey to the Heart of the Sea? That could be an interesting twist.
Here's some concept art for the Dream land with the Jules Verne inspired attractions.
Am going to try and get concept art for each portion - Dream, Fantasy, Magic, and Wonder....but may only get to Fantasy tonight.

Here's the last one for the night...Fantasy
Next two will be up probably tomorrow night
I think we set the due date for New Years Eve? Which would be great because there's going to be a lot going on that night!! Would be great to put out the final product along with the TAFI Awards, the Logo Competition winner, the ICS Weekends Family Feud Game, and so on!
What does everyone have time to do? If @orlando678- is okay with using his old Atlantis concept - that's one write up already.
Do you all want to take the stuff you came up with to do write ups for? I can take whatever is left - and can get started on it tomorrow night.

Um.. is it just me or does Dumbo look macho creepy in your concept art...
It was late and I'm not a great artist I only do it so that my vision for the park is clearer. So no they most likely would not be that creepy in real life
It's alright! Actually the main thing someone brought up was if we could use your Atlantis ride from your Refurbing Disneyland Paris thread?I have a problem. I went on a trip to France, but there's no WiFi connection at all. I will be back on January 2, so I wont make it before the due date

Sure that's no problem. I'm even very honored if you do haha
I've been mobile the last few days and will be till tomorrow ...so sorry i haven't been able to put up anything, but let's try to have this done by the New Year! I'll try to write some stuff up, but let's work together.
Does anyone want to do a write up for an area or attraction that they are interested in?

Maybe we could use my Journey into Imagination ride from the Next Generation thread? It would spare some time for the other attractions.
Thank you that'd be awesome!

Imagination!:
The next pavilion we are going to talk about is the Imagination Pavilion which really needs a lot of help. Yes I'm bringing back the Dreamfinder and Figment, but their roles in the pavilion will be completely different compared to the original version. The Imagination Institute theme will be removed completely. The pavilion will look like it was build just yesterday. There will be a new color scheme which re-introduces the blue, orange and purple adorned on the building. Outside the jumping fountains will be updated with new lights inside the water andnew sounds coming from the fountains as water flies in the air. The backwards waterfall will also be updated with new effects to make it look more like a waterfall. The garden will be improved with new plants, flower beds and trees. The Dreamfinder and his little friend Figment often meet guests in the gardens.
The lobby will be completely changed. When you enter you get three different options. The first option leads to the new Journey into Imagination attraction. An interactive queue with small games based on using your imagination. The attraction however will be nothing like it was before. This ride will be a new trackless ride with next gen technology. Every ride will have 5 vehicles as one group during te attraction. Throughout the ride One Little Spark will play in different styles. In the attraction you will pass through a tunnel. Inside the tunnel are clouds. Then, a silhouette of the Dreamfinder in his Dream Mobile. Then we enter a room which is similar to the introduction room in Mystic Manor, but now we are surrounded by clouds. In the center of the room is the Dream Mobile with the Dreamfinder up front. He tells us that he collects dreams and ideas to create all sorts of things. Soon he creates a figment of his imagination: two tiny wings, eyes big and yellow, horns of steet, but a loveable fellow! From head to tail, he's a purple pigment, and there voila! You've got a Figment!
Figment then tells us that we have to travel to the Dreamport to deliver some dreams of imagination. Our vehicles move into the next room. This room represents Sound. You can see the Dreamfinder playing a massive organ with words and musical notes coming out of it. Figment can be seen playing the guitar while around him instruments start to play on their own. The characters teach us that we imagine great things with sound and that without there wouldnt be any imagination. The words, rhytms and melodies all inspire us in our lives and dreams.
http://www./wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Musical-Instruments.jpgThen a closet moves away to reveal a secret library. This library has books with pages coming to life. This is the literature scene. Here we learn that literature opens up our imagination and transports us to other worlds. You will see various books coming alife like The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Gulliver's Travels, Moby ****, The Odyssey etc. Figment acts out Hamlet while the Dreamfinder tries to keep a book called Frankenstein closed, while a big green hand comes from out of the book. Also books will fly around the library.
We then move into a gallery like corridor. This is the Arts scene. The Dreamfinder and Figment teach us that art can be anything and anything can be art. Also art is the us of imagination and there are so many different ways to make art. The Dreamfinder holds a bucket from which rainbows come from. The colour spats from the rainbows can be seen everywhere in the gallery. Figment works on a self portrait with the Dreamfinder, which starts to move and sing. Other works in the gallery are the Mona Lisa( will start laughing really hard from time to time), the Scream( will start to scream from time to time), the Thinker( who looks up and says Think Think Think from time to time), Parisian gargoyles( who will growl and jump up to vehicles) and A Sunday Afternoon( where Figment will pass by with the painted characters folllowing him while being very confused). We then pass through a painting of Escher.
This painting leads us to the Illusions scene. Various optical illusions can be seen here. Figment disappears inside a glass box, you can see an endless hallway, upside down room and the Dreamfinder will be hypnotized by the famous black and white pattern. Other paintings of optical illusions can be seen, including some of Escher's works. The Dreamfinder and Figment tell us that illusions play with our imagination in the weirdest ways, which makes things seem to move or even disappear.
The vehicles then swoop into a lab like room, the Science scene. Various tubes with unknown liquids are all around. Figment can be seen doong an experiment with two liquids, but it seems to go wrong and it explodes, leaving figment in black smoke. The Dreamfinder is observing plant life, but he doesn't seem to notice that a carnivorous plant is trying to find a meal. We distract the plant from eating the Dreamfinder and nearly escape the teeth of the monster. Also in the Science scene are electronic balls and telescopes exploring the stars and planets of our universe. We then pass by a projector, which projects images on the wall.
The vehicles move through an opening in the wall and we find ourselves in the Movies scene. We first pass by audio animatronic dancers who welcome us to the cinema premier of Figment and the Dreamfinder the movie! Hollywood lights and cameras are all around us. Inside the cinema are various movie screens with Figment being an astronaut, a knight, a cowboy, a deepsea diver, a climber, a rockstar, a farmer, a jungle explorer, a wizard, a pirate and a gangster. The Dreamfinder is behind his camera in the center of the room. He then says ah we are almost at the Dreamport. We pass through another tunnel and see the silhouette of the Dream Mobile again. The Dream Mobile seems to descend as they are out of fuel.
We land into Nightmare land. This light scary scene will have you and the characters encounter scary things as spiders, ghosts, bats and more. The scene will be very dark and it will be similar to a dark forest with haunted castles in the background. A hill with a wolf howling in front of the moon can also be seen. A shivering Figment is seen trying to run from a black cat. The Dreamfinder says: Quick, everyone, we need your help to get to the Dreamport safely, but we need more fuel. If we all imagine together, we should get enough fuel to get to the Dreamport and escape this place very fast. Then like pixie dust projections appear all around us. It forms a portal leading us to a new lighter scene, the Dreamport!
The Dreamport scene will be like a cloud made room with vaults filled with dreams and imagination. You will be able to see various orbs with dreams of children inside, like a girl who dreams to be a princess and a boy who dreams to be a pirate. The Dreamfinder and Figment thank guests for travelling with them to the Dreamport and say goodbye( see you in your dreams!).
The other option is to go upstairs to Imageworks or the new Dreamfinder's Workshop. Here guests can walk under the rainbow corridor( with new light effects), Image warp, Figment's Philharmonic( interactive game where you can activate virtual instruments to play songs as One Little Spark, When You Wish Upon A Star, Grim Grinning Ghosts and It's A Small World), stepping tones, Illussion hall( a gallery with games and pictures of various optical illussions) and Compose your own imaginary friend( you can even print it out or send it to an adress of choice).
The third option leads to a new restaurant called the Dreamstop. Here you are led to your table. You order via a wish screen, which sends a message to the kitchen. Your food and drinks are then send by underground pipes to a box in the middle of the table. Figment will say something like Hey, everyone your wish has been sent to the Dreamport and will soon arrive at your table! when you ordered and Your wish is almost there get ready to open the dream box in the center of your table, oh and enjoy your meal! The Dreamfinder and Figment will meet you at your table from time to time. The restaurant will be very cloud like and various imaginative objects are in the restaurant with which guests can interact. Also a shop called the Sparks of Imagination will be present. Various Epcot Center and Imagination pavilion items can be found here.
http://www./wp-content/uploads/2013/08/dreamfinder.jpgOutside is another surprise for the guests of the Imagination pavilion. Here is the Magic Garden with a spinning Figment topiary and of course fountains and new flower beds. A new ride called Flight of the Dreamcatchers will also be here. This will be an all new spinner flat ride. This ride would create new family and kinetic experiences in the area. The vehicles will be similar to the Dream mobile, but smaller. Also they will all be different from each other. The ride's backstory is that the Dreamfinder and Figment have created Dreamcatcher vehicles and your help to catch some dreams. Guests can levitate the vehicle, activate lasers and lights, loose some bubbles and make sound by various buttons inside the vehicles. A figment audio animatronic in an air balloon will be in the center encouraging guests to catch dreams and telling jokes during the attraction. At night beautiful LED lights light up the spinner and the rest of the pavilion. With these new elements and additions I hope to create a new popular area for our new generation of Epcot Center!
Next time we are going to visit the Universe of Energy Pavilion. We still have 5 pavilions to go for Future World before visiting World Showcase, so keep sticking around for that.
Slowly but surely I am working on the draft!
orlando your attractions have definitely helped cut down the text! So thank you very much!

Tis the season to make fun of your own past shortcomings.
In the spirit of Christmas -- and Festivus, I thought it would be fun to take a look back at this thread, which was a competition/brainstorming session at the end of 2015, which was leaning towards a new theme park cruise ship inspired by the old S.S. Disney concept shown below.
Over the holiday week, if anyone has any new suggestions taking a look at this thread after a few years on hiatus - feel free to! Fresh eyes on it can never hurt.

So if this is Festivus, when do we hold the Airing of Grievances? I've heard many Disney fans will always have something to whine over.
For example, I cannot stand it when Disney fans hate a concept because "it's not what Walt wanted". He's been dead for 51 years! Stop second-guessing his viewpoints!
