A Figmental DCA Overhaul

[figmntal95]

I'm back! This time, I'm here to offer my own version of Disney California Adventure. So let's not delay:

First of, the new Buena Vista Street will remain as it will be, featuring the Carthay Circle Theatre and Trolley Station. The Trolley will make stops near the Tower of Terror and the hub of Paradise Pier.

Hollywood Land
This area will recieve a considerable amount of reworking, and will be split into three subareas:

Muppet Studios
-MuppetVision 3D will recieve an update, with a brand new show featuring some of the newer Muppets and more Muppety fun and humor. The basic plot of the show will be similar to the original, with Bunsen and Beaker showing guests their new 3D technology. However, Bean Bunny and Waldo will not be in this show. Instead, there will be new demonstrations from the Muppets, such as a Gonzo Stunt Act, a Fozzie Joke Act, Miss Piggy's Song, etc. The queue and preshow will also be reworked to be interactive and include more gags.
-The Muppet Movie Ride will take the place of Monsters Inc... I've posted my idea for this attraction previously, with the Muppets all having their own scene of the ride based on their favorite movies, and Miss Piggy would attempt to find her way into every scene.
-The empty soundstage beside the MuppetVision theater will become Gonzo's Pandemonium Pizza Parlor, which was a proposed replacement for Disney Hollywood Studio's Pizza Planet restaurant.
-The LCI Muppet Mobile Lab and Electric Mayhem Bus will alternate making daily appearances in the area.

Animation Street/Courtyard
-Playhouse Disney Live will recieve the update that it is to be recieved with the current DCA expansion.
-The Animation Studios will recieve an overhaul featuring all new exhibits and demonstrations, with an entire area devoted to Pixar, another to Classic Disney Animated Films, and a new Mickey Mouse LCI Show to replace Turtle Talk.
-A New Hercules show will replace the current Aladdin show.
-Award Wieners will become Animated Appetite, serving American fare, and Schmoozies will become a candy store.
-The Backlot Stage will host a new show based on animation featuring numbers from such films as Mulan, Tarzan, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Lion King, and Little Mermaid.
-Studio Catering Co. to be demolished and replaced by an Animated Character/Muppet Meet and Greet.

Hollywood Blvd.
-Tower of Terror remains as is, but the current walkway between Hollywood Backlot and Bugs Land will remain. Also, the trolley will stop in this area.

We'll continue later with my overhaul of the Current Condor Flats and Grizzly Peak Recreation Area.

 

[figmntal95]

Elias Flats (formerly known as Condor Flats)
This area, a tribute to the early days of California aviation, will basically stay as currently is, except for one major change. A new E-Ticket Attraction based on the Rocketeer (perfect for the time period of the area) will be added. Guests will find themselves strapped into jetpacks (think a standing roller coaster combined with the KUKA Robot arm ride vehicle) to help the Rocketeer defeat the Sinclair and Lothar. The ride will have guests suddenly dipping, diving, and turning. It would be somewhat similar to Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. Besides this addition, the rest of the area (which includes Soarin', Taste Pilot's Grill and the small shop) will remain the same.

Grizzly Peak
Grizzly River Run and Rushin' River Outfitters will remain, but Redwood Creek Challenge Trail will be demolished. In it's place will be the Country Bear Theater (featuring an all new Country Bear Jamboree show with more contemporary country music) as well as a Brother Bear 3D Show, themed to the totem ceremony and the movie's animal spirits. This area will also house a small Pin Trading Stand as well as a food cart selling Bear Claws.

Napa Plaza
The rest of the Golden State Area (excluding Pacific Wharf) will remain limited to the small strip between what is currently Bug's land and the backside of Grizzly River Run. This small area will be known as Napa Plaza. This includes the Golden Vine area (which will stay the same) and WDI Blue Sky Cellar. The Blue Sky Cellar will become a permanent exhibit on Walt Disney Imagineering.

I'll continue later with the overhaul of Pacific Wharf.

 

[figmntal95]

Fisherman's Wharf (formerly Pacific Wharf)
-Remove Chinese restaurant (for good cause) to be replaced by a Fish n Chips stand.
-Pacific Wharf Cafe remains as is.
-The Mexican Restaurant becomes a formal sit down seafood restaurant.
-Mission Tortilla Factory becomes Flying Fish Jr. Coaster.
-Boudin Tour becomes a Nautical Museum with a fisherman's boat walkthrough.

Chinatown (formerly a Bug's Land)
My justification for this land stems from Walt's initial Chinatown idea, which was designed but never built as a stem of Main Street. This area also represents the variety of immigrants who made their way to California.
-Level everything.
-There'd be a sit down Chinese restaurant featuring an advanced AA of Confucius in the center of the dining area.
-Add a Fortune Cookie Factory... where guests can see how fortune cookies are made as well as taste a sample.
-Add a Firework Factory Walkthrough. Basically a funhouse, but with explosions of smoke and light surrounding guests.
-Add Chinatown Motor Mania dark ride. Similar to Mr Toads, guests would dash through the streets of San Francisco meeting some of the immigrant groups that resided in the city. This ride would feature humor used in attractions such as Pirates and Haunted Mansion.
-Add a medium-sized Chinese Imports shop.

Here's a revised list of what I have so far:

Disney California Adventure Overhaul​

Buena Vista Street​

Buena Vista Street serves as the entrance plaza to Disney California Adventure. This area will be designed as it looked when Walt Disney first arrived in California back in the 1920s. The main attraction of the area is the Carthay Circle Theater, where Walt first premiered Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The theater will host a new version of the Walt Disney Story. Also, the red cars in the area will travel through Buena Vista Street down near the Tower of Terror in Hollywoodland. This area will be designed like an actual street, similar to Disneyland's Main Street. A new version of the Partners statue will feature a much younger Walt, carpetbag in hand, accompanied by an earlier version of Mickey Mouse.

Classic music involving flying and aviation plays everywhere. The sounds of planes taking off can also be heard.
