Now...don't get me wrong...but the "Cape Cod" resort looks an awful lot like the Boardwalk.
The theme park...although a nice pic...looks REALLY confusing
the Wilderness Resort is also a resort pic from DisneyLand Paris...
Hmmm...and hold on a minute..
Ahh yes...the Newport Bay...in good ol' DisneyLand Paris
(a resort themed to Cape Cod)

Ummmm, I gave a direct example in my post
The name of the area where the food courts, shopping and main pool at CB resort at WDW is officially called Old Port Royal : Center O' Town, how is that not lifting the name he used it directly out of the name of part of another resort for his own resort.
If a practice of cloning names was done (ex lands in MK style parks) there would be no problem as that is established. But there is no reason to simply copy resort names, I could think of like 5 different names in like a 2 minute time span, I think he would be capable of at-least one.
Of course it does you lifted it directly from the Caribbean Beach resort, some other imagineer already thought up the name and crafted it to fit the Caribbean theme, then you simply lifted the name for your own resort with practically zero effort on your part except maybe to find the name if you were not aware of it before.
The civilizations theme does have some potential if you really romanticize some of the lesser evolved civilizations.

Okay. ONE: Get off the name lifting thing. Please. TWO: I had no idea that DLParis already had a Cape Cod resort and I had no idea that my picture of Camp Wilderness was a picture from DLParis. I just went to Google Images and typed in keywords. No clue they were from Disney parks. 
THREE: Yes my Cape Cod picture was one from Boardwalk but I thought that it would kinda look like that! I am almost done with ride and attraction lists. I will post them tomorow or Tuesday!:wave:

This is the Imagineering Forum, make sure you use it in the future when making names and you won't have to worry about it next time. The other thing is, that this is not the first time you have done it either; you have a huge history of doing this. You come here for comments, so I give them and when you don't take them and continue to make the same mistakes I will continue to correct them, however obviously the more you do them the less polite I get
The ball is in your court, stop name lifting I won't have anything to "get on"
Thank you
Now with that out of the way let's hear the rest of your ideas

To be honest, nothing really thrills me everything seems to be either a derivative of something already at MK or DL, with the possible exception of Mist Mountain, that seems like it has some unique potential.
A stunt show does not work in any MK park, unless you removed that fact that it was a stunt show and just made it a show with stunts in it but not revealing the "secrets' behind it.
Also the concept of USA Square seems a bit faltered, USA is an overall broad theme for such a small area. The attractions in the area can all be linked to a Patriotic theme except Phantom Manor, the reason why it fit's in Liberty Square at HM is because it has Hudson River Valley architecture from the 18th century which fits with the theme of the birth of the nation. USA can not draw the same conclusion, so you either need to change the name or move PM. On another note I was opposed to a 9/11 memorial in a theme park, I would be even more opposed to a 9/ll attraction, this in no way can be romanticized (which all history elements in theme parks are) or should it be, I would find it disrespectful to try to make a theme park attraction out of this, theme parks are for leisure and entertainment not memorial tributes to tragedy. You would either end up making a entertaining tragedy or a respectful tribute void of entertainment, neither appropriate for a theme park.

*scratches head*
Why not just go to the Magic Kingdom?
Why not just go to the Magic Kingdom?
okay WDWFREAK53. Many people would go to this because it would be closer to them, therefore saving them money. I know if I had a Disney park closer to me than WDW I would much rather go to it even if it isnt as big. This would be much closer to me, for one becuase it would only be about 100 miles away. Unlike WDW being over 16 hours away!
Figment Dream, when I said the Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular it would be based on the second or third IJ film. I can't remeber what it was called, the Temple of Doom I think. And they would NOT give the secrets away! Also, USA Square can be changed. The only names I can come up with are Freedom Square, Times Square, and Liberty Square, which is already taken so I aint gonna use it. If you can think of any others, please tell me! And, take out the 9/11 memorial. I'll try to think of something to replace it with!

I think what WDWFREAK53 was saying in a much more crass way then what I was stating was that practically all of your park is too similar to MK, keep the classics but make some new stuff (not just slightly different versions)
As far as name help referrer here where I talked through some different possibleites

Well, the temple of doom is kinda the disliked Indy film. It's the one where kids are made to work in mines while getting whipped, an evil priest pulls out a guys heart and throws him into a pit of Lava, and lots of guys fall into a river full of crocdiles and get eaten. See why it's kinda disliked? By the way, I like your ideas, except I have to agree what Figment Dream said after that.
