I have a new proposal for the sharks @MonorailRed you were involved in this project so you're not a shark for this
Team Goofy Presents...
Majestic Point - A Symbol of Imagination
Backstory:
Around 1866 in the golden age of alpinism, Robert Sled, a painter, sculpture artist, and aspiring mountaineer, tries his luck to scale the mighty Matterhorn Mountain with some of his friends. Unfortunately, after a harrowing journey, he and his friends cannot reach the top, and begin the descent back to the base of the mountain. Once at the base of the mountain, Sled looks up in awe at the beauty and majesty of the mountain from this unique perspective. Sled is inspired by this location, and feeling a creative connection to the environment, decides to build a bench for himself in the area. With the help of his friends, Sled is able to build a bench from a nearby Spruce tree. Sled oversees the design and decides to give the bench a 360 degree perspective, so he had have all the available beauty at his disposal. Sled also paints and sculpts the bench to his individual tastes, adding a wide variety of color patters and wood engravings in the bench, including his own name. Finally, after the bench was complete, he dubs it and the location, Majestic Point. Over the next few months, Sled paints and sculpts an eclectic variety of art.
However, one night, before packing up his art to head home, Robert Sled hears loud footsteps creeping out of the shadows. He sees a tall white figure with giant claws who takes a swing at him. He ultimately escapes but was to scared to ever return to the Matterhorn base again.
Decades later, while filming Third Man on the Mountain in Switzerland, Walt Disney notices the majesty of the Matterhorn and sends a postcard of the mountain to Vic Greene, an Imagineer, telling him to "build this." Upon further investigation, Walt notices a beautifully painted and sculpted bench and the yeti claw marks on it. He asks to take the bench with him - but it never saw the light of day in Disneyland when the attraction opened because imagineers thought it would rapidly decay in the heat. It ended up staying in storage for the time being. Nevertheless, while not on display in the park, the bench's design was the inspiration for the color scheme of the Matterhorn Bobsled attraction queue.
After years in storage, to celebrate Disneyland's 60th birthday and the 150th anniversary of the first Matterhorn assent, WDI has decided to unveil the newly enhanced and refurbished Majestic Point! It will have a very specific location in the park in order to replicate the same view of the Matterhorn that inspired Robert Sled all those years ago.
Bench Essentials:
Location:
The location of our new bench, named "Majestic Point", is on the walkway to the right of the Matterhorn, leading from Tomorrowland into Fantasyland. As you meander on the path, you'll notice a subtle yet sizable curvature in the pathway that radiates out towards the Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage. Guarded by a small Alpine rock formation, this quaint and picturesque area is where Majestic Point will be situated. Along with having enough space, there is a formidable tree on the side of the bench, which offers much needed shade for guests in the California sun.
Viewing Perspective #1 - Facing the Matterhorn with the same viewpoint as Robert Sled
Viewing Perspective #2 - Robert Sled sculpted the opposing view of the hillside into the bench. Mr. Sled was a dreamer. To honor him and dreamers everywhere, guests can gaze out at the Disneyland monorail and the submarines; two icons from another dreamer, Walt Disney, who rediscovered Majestic Point
Double-Sided:
Majestic Point will have seats on both sides, offering multiple benefits to guests. Not only will Majestic Point be able to hold double the capacity of a regular sized bench, but guests are also given the option of two scenic views. If you sit facing the lagoon, you can passively observe two of the most iconic attractions in Disneyland: the Submarines and the Monorail. Nevertheless, if guests sit the opposite way, they can look up at the towering Matterhorn Mountain and reflect on the idea that this view was the same perspective that inspired Robert Sled to not only design the bench, but to paint, sculpt, and dream up masterpieces of art.
Material:
Robert Sled and his fellow companions built this bench in the 19th century from a Spruce tree at the base of the Matterhorn Mountain. The Spruce tree is the most common tree in Switzerland, with 46% of all trees being Spruces. WDI has refurbished the aesthetic features of the bench, which allows Majestic Point to offer a comfortable seat to relax and enjoy the views.
Color Scheme:
The base color of the bench is the same dark finish and eclectic color patterns that the queue building has, which you can see below:
Special Features - Around the Bench in Several Photos
Name Carving:
Robert Sled decided that he should carve his name into his bench so anyone who sees it knows who designed founded it. On the seat, he carved his name "Bob" into the bench. The artist's name was also a driving factor in designing the Disneyland Matterhorn attraction around Bobsleds, as his name is actually Robert (Bob) Sled.
Yeti Claws:
When guests observe the bench, there are noticeable claw marks from when Harold the Abominable Snowman had a run in with Robert Sled. You will be able to stick the tip of your index finger into the claw marks, showing how powerful this monster truly is.
Charge Ports:
In order to enhance the guest experience with Majestic Point, the creative designers at WDI decided to add one modern touch. You will see a Matterhorn logo on each corner of the bench, 4 in total, which are charge stations for electronic devices. While Disneyland should be enjoyed technology free, Disney understands the growing necessity for electronic accommodations, and the hopes of these charge ports will be so that guests utilize them for the continued longevity of their devices and not to keep their heads in their smartphones. As an aside, these charge ports will not be on park maps, so they will act as a hidden, "in the know", Disneyland secret.
Concluding Thoughts and Remarks:
(Note these two categories were taken from the challenge prompt)
How does your bench fit into the land:
Nestled on the eastern side of Fantasyland, Majestic Point embodies the imaginative and timeless aura of the land that its in. The bench itself tells the story of a man who wished to dream, who wished to sculpt, who wished to let his imagination run free. His impassioned love for art and the scenic Alpine vistas catalyzed his own adventure, and his own story. Robert Sled's legacy at the Matterhorn base has been restored and will be cherished forever in the land of 'imagination, hopes, and dreams'.
How does your bench affect the flow of park itself:
On the pathway from Tomorrowland into Fantasyland, there aren't a lot of secluded areas for relaxation and recuperation. On the left side of the path as you enter Fantasyland is the Matterhorn Bobsled queue, but other than that it is simply a walking path, and unless guests are standing on line, they can't appreciate the amazing views from this location. In addition, the Matterhorn Bobsled queue building color scheme takes inspiration from Robert Sled's Majestic Point, so by placing the bench in this location, it allows for a better cohesive color scheme flow within the Matterhorn Bobsled area.
Thank you for reading our proposal!

Going with this option! I'll take it
Welcome to the newest edition to World Showcase!
The Cheetah Girls: One World Showcase

Oh no
Project 8
In 2020, with all the exciting thrills of Star Wars Land and the whimsical entertainment in Toy Story Land, one of the last pieces of the renovation puzzle is Animation Courtyard, with the goal of designing a "people-eater" attraction to entice guests while at the same time helping park capacity.
With "Walt Disney's Animation", both of the above goals are accomplished, as this slow moving omnimover attraction takes a look back at Walt Disney Productions through the eyes of Walt Disney himself, traveling through classic films he helped create (which already stood the test of time), and finishing with a look at Walt Disney Animation Studios in the present day to illustrate Walt's influence on animation throughout the years.
The attraction will be divided into 13 individual film scenes that will rely on Audio Animatronics and physical sets to immerse guests into the worlds of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, Bambi, The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad, Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Lady and the Tramp, Sleeping Beauty, One Hundred and One Dalmatians, The Jungle Book, and lastly a large-screen sneak peak at the newest Disney animated film in production; a scene that will constantly change to keep up present day cinema.
In addition to "Walt Disney's Animation" - the rest of Animation Courtyard will be redone and remodeled with revolving shows and attractions based around current Disney animation films, with the Disney Jr live on stage being converted to a walk-through attraction showing off the new films of the time, as well as the Little Mermaid show being replaced with a more updated Moana show. Ultimately, this new Animation Courtyard will be more interactive and immersive to the guests, having a pathway access to Toy Story Land, so that the flow can be from Disney Animation, to Pixar Animation, to then Live-Action Star Wars, in the back of Disney's Hollywood Studios.
I may post some ideas here and review someI forgot we had this thread.
Ok so the way it works is (like on the show) you propose one of your attractions and anyone who is interested (a shark) can put a "bid" on it and/or ask you to adjust things to the proposal.
It's all hypothetical but is a different way to get reviews than simply one person's feedback -- so I'll kick it back up and tag some who may be interested in reviewing - anyone can do it though!

Awesome! That's what this is for!
Lol, I like the idea a lot, but I'll wait to review till Thursday with the 1S Comp.I forgot we had this thread.

@Pionmycake @kmbmw777 @tcool123 @MonorailRed
Hmm... Disney Jr. Stays as is. Moana Comes and reuses the entire queue and theater. The queue and animation façade get repainted and reused instead of the new façade, and the old backlot queue is used. Fantasia, Toad, snd lady scenes get cut. That is my offer (open to counters).I forgot we had this thread.

@Pionmycake @kmbmw777 @tcool123 @MonorailRed
All very good offers.
I love all of this -- the only thing I would like taken out are the two ESPN buildings, as ESPN is losing subscribers faster than a jackrabbit on a hot summer morning and might not be the best investment going forward for Disney -- best to cut ties.I'll contribute to the tank. The following is a spoiler for my dream resort at Singapore; to bring those up to speed replaces Hong Kong, and is much more successful, but overcrowded. This would be the second park at the Singapore Resort, and would be built in two phases. The park will be known as Disney Studios, and be the third Studios themed park. It takes the visual appeal of DHS, but with the wider variety of attractions of WDSP.
Phase 1 2014 - 2018
Phase 1 consists of the opening and building of the studios complex that will be used to create films, television productions, and works for the parks around the world. The first building to be built and finished will be The Sandcrawler which houses Lucasfilm Ltd Singapore, here employees will work on animation along with Industrial Light and Magic. The second building that will be built will house the Imagineer's Workshop this will be an area where animatronics can be tested out, as well as animation for the various attractions at Disney theme parks around the world will be made. Once completed the animators will get to work on getting the animation done for World of Color, Buzz Lightyear : To the Rescue!, and other attractions throughout the park. The final two main buildings will be home for ESPN Southeast Asia, and Disney Channel Southeast Asia. The final two main buildings will be accompanied by the creation of New York City Streets, Los Angeles Streets, and Parisian Streets along with various sound stages. These will all be built, and open ahead of the actual park to allow for an actual sense that movies and tv shows have, are, and will be filmed here.
Phase 2 2016 - 2020
Phase 2 is the opening of the actual park, well half of it. Due to an agreement with the Singapore government that was made rather last minute Disney Studios, had to be planned, cleared, and built in four years. In comparison Shanghai Disneyland was announced in 2009, and opened in 2016; that was a 7 year gap. Due to this various things (Star Wars and Marvel) in the park were cut, or pushed off for a later date. So without further ado a list of the offerings on opening day.
Disney Studios –
Hollywood Boulevard –
Hollywood Boulevard is set during the Golden Age of Cinema, specifically the 1940's to 1960's. Here guests will find a recreation of the land seen at Disney's Hollywood Studios. There will be plenty of meet and greets, restaurants, shows, entertainment, stores, and attractions to spend time feeling you are a star.
Attractions :
The Cathay Circle Theater – Now Showing Fantasia (A - Ticket)
A faithful recreation of the Cathay Circle Theater, becomes the home to a talking Sorcerer Mickey meet and greet. Guests will wait in line in the cinema's lobby while clips from Fantasia play, the smell of popcorn is piped in. Guests go backstage, and meet the big cheese himself, Mickey.
The Great Movie Ride (E - Ticket)
The costs of this ride will be shared with Disney's Hollywood Studios as it includes new scenes from films such as Grease(Replaces Singin' in the Rain), La La Land(Replaces Footlight Parade), Nosferatu (Replaces Generic Horror), The Avengers (Replaces first half of Gangsters), The Lion King (Replaces Tarzan), Star Wars : A New Hope (Replaces Alien), and Titanic (Replaces Casablanca). THis comes along with a new ending montage, but besides that they're practically the same.
The Golden Mickeys (D - Ticket)
A copy of the concept of the Disney Cruise Line show, as guests wait for the show using the screens embedded into the backs of the seats they will vote on who will win in categories such as Best Princess, Best Cartoon Star, etc. The nominees change with the season, except for the category of Best Song. Each category will have five choices, and the Best Song nominees will all perform on stage with vibrant projections, singers, and dancers. When a winner is announced a short 30 second montage of their film and score play along with cool lighting effects to accommodate. This new revitalized concept will give guests an exciting opportunity to part of an awards show, and will pretty much guarantee that each show will be different.

* I will give you an upfront investment of 700 Million as long as there is a D-Zone in the park designed to my choosing so I can sit quietly on a bench and people-watch.I love all of this -- the only thing I would like taken out are the two ESPN buildings, as ESPN is losing subscribers faster than a jackrabbit on a hot summer morning and might not be the best investment going forward for Disney -- best to cut ties.
