So I know WDW already has two water parks and probably has no intentions to build a third any time soon, but if you had to come up with an idea for a third Disney water park, what would it be?

I always used to want a Lost themed water park but I guess it would be kind of like Typhoon Lagoon.
But I would like to see a water park integrate some traditional movie magic...maybe a park that had attractions based on the movies. Some could include
*Flotsam and Jotsam racing slides
*Finding Nemo Meet and Greet(Kind of like the shark tank in Typhoon Lagoon but with actual species from Finding Nemo)
*An Escape from Atlantis full-blown thrill ride..kinda like a log flume where you get wet around every corner with some scenes from Atlantis thrown in there.
* A Pirates of the Carribbean Black Pearl Play area
-Tortuga themed restaurant?
These are just some ideas..maybe a lazy river where various characters have various ways of getting you wet. A Herculeus animotronic could make it look like he's doing a cannonball behind a well placed barrier and an explosion of water soaks everyone..Stitch could be near the wave pool trying his hardest not to fall in!

I’m very very late to this but I think something western themed or maybe even like a waterpark built around a crashed ufo or something, a sci fi waterpark would be unique, though maybe too similar to typhoon lagoon. It would be situated on an island with a ufo crash landed in the center. There would be a lot of high tech equipment in there and it was converted into a slide complex atop a extraterrestrial looking rock spire, there would also be entertainment and such.

LOL, you went way, waaaaay back for this one. You could have just made a new one buddy, but I'll play along.
I love your ideas for a water park. But I think that a 3rd water park could also be a clever way to do a 5th park as well. A nice "Touché" response and a middle finger to Universal. All Disney would have to do is make it a water park and sea life park.
Then theme it to their water related films.
Little Mermaid
Finding Nemo
Pinocchio
Peter Pan
Princess and the Frog
Moana

Well if you think about it it would be their 7th park counting the waterparks. You could mayeb call it Disney fantasy springs, maybe it could be half water park half marine life theme park, a competitor to seaworld, maybe with a larger aquarium or it’s mainly animatronics and live performer shows and less animals to be more environmentally friendly but if animals have a big habitat for them however I think a third waterpark is more likely than a 5th gate

If universal can claim their waterpark as a third gate, so can Disney!

Brilliant, it could be the first water park to add screens and IP theming throughout.

It’s also about time Disney makes themed slides. It’s strange the only real park that did this is waterworld in Colorado. Plus they may need to retheme things in Epcot and magic kingdom so maybe it could be a Jules verne inspired waterpark.

And Luca! Don’t forget lava, 20,000 leagues, lilo and stitch, Atlantis, etc

Yep, most of those sound great.
Disney may want to stay away from Atlantis though. It really tanked at the box office and prevented them from retheming "20,000 leagues" or doing "Fire Mountain".
How about a Monstro water slide? It was supposed to be a regular park ride, but it could easily be changed.

Yeah maybe. The idea could be its seperate s into several lands, here are just some ideas not al of them would be in it but maybe
Portorosso from luca
fantasy springs (various classic Disney ips)
Hawaii (lilo and stitch, moana)
Atlantis (mostly unrelated to the movie unless they make a live action remake that does well which in this case lets say it does, if not it could be themed to the general myth.)
Rio themed area with zipline
Jungle book
Pirates of the Caribbean.
emperors new groove.
And a wild card:
A family oriented slide complex called
Phineas and ferbs splashtopia! A typical water complex with buckets and slides and such.
And I want to avoid the little mermaid and finding Nemo cause they mostly have a lot of representation in the parks.

Yeah, I'd love to see what they could do with themed lands.
The lazy river could have animatronics along the sides (like Disneyland Railroad). It would probably have to be behind glass though. Because some idiots would probably splash water at them.
It could showcase and preview each of the themed lands. And say things like "The next stop is Moana Land, if leaving please leave your tube for other Fantasy Springs visitors."

A Jules Verne section would actually be pretty cool. Especially if they can make you feel like your traveling underwater like in the Tokyo version of 20,000 Leagues.
Perhaps clear tubes with a bubbling water effect could aid in the feeling. That and a humongous octopus.

Maybe called it Disney's Splash Kingdom as a water park version of the Magic Kingdom/DisneySEA also feature Pirates of the Caribbean

You're reading my mind. The 20,000 leagues octopus idea made me think of Pirates as well.

Great idea!! Splash kingdom could also be to show how this is more of a proper Disney park as opposed to other Disney waterparks, cause I haven’t been to typhoon lagoon and it looks a lot nicer than blizzard beach but the waterparks so far don’t feel like Disney, maybe cause they’re lacking that Disney magic and ip
