Okay, I have a few concepts for you guys. Feel free to take them, use them, expand them, whatever!
1) "Haunted House Expedition" Attraction
In the 50's, the wealthy Burchest family built a mansion, complete with all the latest, modern inventions and gadgets. However, it was left uncompleted when it was discovered that the ground it had been built on was a sinkhole, and actually sunk into the ground. The construction crews abandoned it, and actually filled in the entire house (which is completely sunken into the ground at this point) with dirt, buring the Burchest family alive.
Years later, [name] University was breaking ground for it's new library, when construction workers discovered the house. So, the students and professors made progress into the house, and now they want you, the guests, experts in your respective fields of study, to walk through the house, until something goes horribly wrong... (you knew it had to at some point).
The idea is the house is a huge interactive structure. You don "telepathic energy" headsets, which let you listen to ambeint sounds, "magnified" so you can hear them. Go into the corner of the daughter's bedroom, for instance, and you hear her crying.
Also, simple effects, such as work lights behaving erraticly, and room temperature serve to add to the susspense. Go into the "bathroom" (it won't actually work, you know) and the mirror fogs up, and then you see what looks like writing appear on the mirror, as if a spirit is using a finger to write a message to you. And, as you go along, you'll learn that the Burchest family had a few secrets, and they'll do anything to keep them hidden, even from beyond the grave....
(This does seem too scary for a Disney park, though, I guess. But I really like this idea, so if there's a way to salvage it, I'm all ears.)
2) "Ice Mountian" Attraction
A copy of the Matterhorn, but instead of Swiss bobsledding, it's more about technology. See, a mad man named Stracoli, from the future has been looting other eras ("Continuia")of thier good ideas, and adding his own cultural spin on things. This results in being the most wanted fugitive on Earth (and time itself). So, Stracoli has been fleeing to his retreat, in the Ice Age (no relation to the movie, mind).
However, Stracoli's arch nemisis, another mad man, named Cil Julius, transported his icy retreat. Guess what you have to do!
Yes, go back in time, on a wild rollercoaster ride, through nearly a dozen civilizations, restroring thier culture and bringing justice to Continua.
The Matterhorn mountian is the same California version, but the loading and que is laid out almost like Anehiem's Jungle Cruise, but in a white-colored techno base. There would also be a lot of red lights around the base of the mountian. It would amlost look like a fusion of high-tech equipment, Star Wars "Dirty" enviroments, and Art Deco influences.
And in place of DL's Submarines ride (at the base of the Matterhorn), you'd get a restraunt, featuring diffrent rooms for each time period and culture.
3) "Nintendo All-Stars Cafe" themed restraunt
This one kinda goes into the Misc. category. It's like Planet Hollywood, but themed to the franchises of Nintendo. Dine with Mario, Luigi, Link, Kirby, Star Fox, Donkey Kong, etc.
While you're waiting for food, you can play on the console's in the wall of each booth. Also, there would be a shop (duh!).
Ideas? Comments? Questions?
You know what to do.
