What new attraction would you add to the World Showcase area?
Bullet Train Ride, take out the current Mexico boat ride and dare I say it add a coaster themed to a Mayan/Aztec temple curse (thrill caliber between Everest and Rock n Rollercoaster), Dr Who e-ticket in UK, Maelstrom BIG refurb, Italy gondola ride through Venice (inside ride), Soarin' (over the world) moved to America

Random, but I wanna see what you guys think of my new Pixar Place idea. It'll still have the same brick look as before but it'll look cool, I have the idea in my head, it's like a mix of the Pixar bricks and the ride facades but I don't know how to describe it. Think of it as the ride environments rising out of the brick like this: Here (even though it's a blue wall think of that as the bricks then you have the coral of nemo coming out to the side of it, and by the way Crush isn't in my idea).


1. Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor - 2.0 version of the attraction. Facade inside factory and queue is actually looks accurate. What would be in the queue is: Walking through the halls, passing the front desk, and new pre-show inside the simulation room, and that is where the screens will be. The new pre-show would be inside the simulation room (this place), using Jack Sparrow projection technology, Sulley needs to leave quickly as he forgot paperwork at his house but can't leave because he's the boss (film ends with him running the company) and Wazowski begs if he can be in charge while he's gone during the open house. It would emphasize that the Laugh Floor isn't ready yet to use, but that goes over Mike's head. Sulley caves and lets him run the open house while he's gone for 30 minutes. At the end of the attraction, Sulley comes back and sees Mike running the laugh floor. As Mike starts the show with a few other monsters, as everybody sits down the doors lock and he finds out he needs to get laughs for the doors to open again. The couches inside the theater will be comfortable, and Mike Wazowski will be an animatronic. At the end of the attraction, the power goes off and everybody panics for 20 seconds then you hear a bang on the door and Sulley is trying to get in, and he turns back on the lights and scolds Mike.

2. Untitled Wall-E Ride - Omnimover dark ride of the film, but at some scenes specifically it will go fast (about 20 MPH). It would be a big dark ride along the lines of Haunted Mansion. You sit inside a "Carr-E" a big robot who looks remotely like Wall-E
Show Scenes Include: Lonely Trash Planet where he finds the plant, Wall-E watching the old tape in his garage wanting to find love, Eve landing on Earth, Wall-E and Eve meeting, Eve shutting down and Wall-E taking care of her, Wall-E going to space after Eve is taken as well as the plant, Wall-E and Eve taking back the plant, Rogue Robots trying to escape (fast scene through Axiom), Axiom starts to land, back on earth and the robots as well as the humans are planting the flower.

3. Toy Story Mania - Plussed queue which is like the Dumbo queue, and it has different animatronic characters (like Potato Head) in a food court set-up, where you roam and watch the one you want to see. Animatronics include: Wheezy would sing, Etch-A-Sketch would draw guests, Pricklepants would give acting lessons, and Rex asks how to be scary. As well as adding Woody and Buzz AA at the end of the ride telling you your score and to come back soon.

4. Untitled Ratatouille Crush's Coaster Clone - Rethemed Crush's Coaster of Ratatouille. Dark ride portion would be him in the his restaurant, Cafe Ratatouille, similar to the POTC and Blue Lagoon restaurant in DL with a real restaurant look down on it. The coaster portion would be out in the sewers


a. Café Ratatouille - French Inspired table service (but not fine dining) themed to... (SPOILER Remy's restaurant he gets at the end of the film). A Living character Remy would be here.

b. Pizza Planet - Quick Service Restaurant

c. A Bug's Life Playground - Plussed re-theme of HISTK playground with a Flik meet and greet in the back.

d. Pixar Pals Meet and Greets - Like Princess Fairytale Hall where all the characters (except Buzz, Woody, Mike, Sulley, and Flik) are in one location.

e. B n L - Exit shop of Wall-E ride

f. Al's Toy Barn - Shop with all Pixar merchandise

In Reference to World Showcase....NOTHING!

World Showcase is close to perfect, and it's so NOT about ROLLER COASTERS! It's about PEOPLE!

THE ONLY way that I would accept a new ride in World Showcase would be if it came with a completely new pavillion. A River ride in Brazil, a Mountain Trek in Switzerland, etc. And quite frankly the only way that I would accept that is if it weren't a thrill ride, but a ride the whole family could do together. Not only for that reason, but also, (and I'm about to get real) all the drunks at EPCOT would throw up on a coaster in World Showcase.

There are plenty of great countries to consider for World Showcase, but I would definitely not want a high profile thrill ride!

What I would consider would be something like a West-End Theatre with a live stage show in the UK, or the Venetian Gondolas in Italy, or something like that rather than a full scale E-Ticket.

The other thing would be a tech re-imagining of Illuminations. The Music is spectacular so keep that, keep the globe, and throw out everything else! Complete Re-imagining of Lights, Lasers, Fountains, and Pyro to bring the show into the future.

The Gondolas or any more water ride won't work. 2/2 of the WS attractions are already water rides

Water isn't the predominant feature of Gran Fiesta Tour, and It wouldn't really be the predominant feature of the Gondolas either. It's not like you get splashed like Splash and Kali. It's more like a dark ride that just happens to be on a boat.

That's like saying Pirates of the Caribbean wouldn't work in Magic Kingdom because they already have Small World.

yes, but i'm saying too much can be overkill. Two rides on water can be fine (Pirates and Small World) but if they had four (adding Rhine River and Gondolas) that might be a bit too much.

I have to agree with tip top...its not about thrills in epcot or WS especially. I think water rides fit very well in WS because of the whole flow of water and the lagoon. I think its a slow peaceful journey that even adults and grandparents can go on! its a great area

Jungle Cruise, Splash Mountain, Pirates of the Caribbean, Riverboat, Rafts, Small World, Storybookland Canal Boats, Finding Nemo Subs...I guess no one told Disneyland that...

I didn't say both, I said neither, and I'd prefer a new pavilion with no rides at all. But if we had to, I'd like it to be something slow and easy.

I think the shows like O Canada, Reflections of China and whatever the Paris one is called are the highlight attractions in World Showcase. More experiences like that instead of thrill rides is what I would like to see.

However I would hate to see Gran Fiesta or Maelstorm go.

I would like a new Pavillion based on Ireland. It is absolutely gorgeous there! I have been 3 times now. I want there to be an Irish pub and some shopping. I a stage for Irish dancers would be awesome. I would also like a slow Ride on a wagon or something maybe even a boat ride. through some of Irelands key points like the giants causeway, Blarney Castle, The gap of dunloe, The Holy cross abbey, Pass the book of Kells, the rock of cashel...and include some interesting folk stories on the fairies of ireland and the sacredness of the woods and fairy trees. I would love it.

Ireland is apart of the UK.

With this new monsters inc ride development with a new patent, how would you want this ride to be themed? What would the story be?

Hmm Monsters invite you into their world, and Mike/Sulley is your skipper (over voice) leading you to different directions and funny scenarios through the factory, university, and city. This would continue the adventures after Monsters University and Monsters, Inc. so there is no Boo.

But monsters university is a prequel, so are they still scaring people?
