Just a fun little post here. Who do you think will be the next to receive an interactive queue and why? with your answer provide an example of what you think it will or should look like. Happy Imagineering :).

I see Thunder as next in line, simply since the lines get outrageous and there was a rumor about it a while back. Lots of potential for queue effects, since you have this pretense of an abandoned mine/mining town - opportunities for playing with old tools and etc. that were left behind.

Splash also seems like a natural fit for an interactive queue, due its long lines and lack of current theming in the queue. The imprecise nature of the attraction's theming makes deciding on the queue a little more difficult - is the ride Western or Southern, was everything built by humans or built by animals (critters, as they call'em in Disneyland)? I'm imagining lots of water effects though - that could be fun. :)

Philharmagic could work well, but most of the time I see it the line is pretty short, so I end up just running through the turnstiles and waiting in the big foyer area. That would be a difficult area to install interactive elements given the, well, lack of a queue. Something about "magically" conducting an orchestra with your hands, like the Figment instrument effect at ImageWorks, could work well though.

I, for one, hope they never touch Jungle. :lookaroun The old-timey attraction works extremely well with its old-timey queue, and its big band era music, goofy narration, and Marc Davis-style sight gags.
