Right now, as it stands, New Fantasyland is pretty, but kind of dull.
We have on ride (Under the Sea)
One ride coming (Dwarves Mine Cart)
One show (Storytime with Belle)
and THREE places to eat (Be Our Guest Restaurant, Gaston's Tavern, and the New Prince Eric's)
And I don't count the Circus because you basically leave New Fantasyland when you go there.
So did Disney miss something? I think so.
There is a GIANT ravine off of Gaston's village. Wouldn't it have been great if that ravine could have been something?
Would a darker, semi-spooky woods be neat? Imagine Big trees, Big black thorn vines, a spooky path, and a heavy tree canopy. And as you walk into that area you pass by dark flashing eyes in the shadows of the woods, some talking trees, and maybe an illusion where it becomes perpetual night in the woods and as you peer through the canopy you see the moon shrouded in eerie clouds. Then you happen upon maybe the wicked witch's hut, or Maleficent, or some other villains who lurk down there amidst boiling cauldrons like Dr. Facilier from Princess and the Frog at his voodoo camp site with frogs croaking and fake gators, magic.....and you can even add The Witch from "Brave". And the characters could rotate out.
Sure the little ones may get a little spooked, but that's the point, just to make it fun and add a little bit of the villains. And if the kids don't want to go into the dark, scary woods....then they don't have to....
but it would be awesome.What do you all think......and I appreciate it if you don't flame me because I am just having some fun making a suggestion.
