I like the idea of the transportation (monorail) expansion probably the most because I already know Mission Space is in progress and because it's probably the most likely of the currently un-greenlighted projects to come to light. I don't care for another Splash Mountain-ish type ride to come along based on the villains. If anything, it should be some sort of roller coaster adventure.

The possiblility of Beastly Kingdom has always sounded like a great idea to me. Also, isn't it about time they add a new country to WS? Australia sounds terrific.

Heading for the great escape.
I hope that this much fabeled Beastly Kingdom comes to life. It would allow the Imagineers complete freedom to develop attractions using fantasy themeing.
As for Australia I would prefer to see that appear as a new continent in AK, the attracton should be water based as that plays a big part in Aussie life, or A rough terain vehicle ride to represent the outback.
I think it is time for a few new contries in the World showcase. I for one vote for a Scottish land, They could demonstrate the three Scottish delacacies, Whiskey, Irn Bru (Scottish soda drink) and the ultimate Deep Fried Mars Bars :hurl: . A ride could be based on Celtic legends, or highlight the dispraportionate influence the Scots have had on the world.:sohappy:
Others ripe for use are Switzerland, Holland, Russia (thinking Vodka jello here).

Obviously this is not a new opinion but I would love to see more monorails going up. I think there is a real need for a transportation overhaul since the buses can take so long and be so confusing. I've had an idea cooking for a long time now that involves having five monorail stops (like, TTC, MK, Epcot/MGM with walking paths to each park, AK, and Downtown). Each of the stops would be connected to the TTC and to each other by a big circular loop. Disney can thus keep its buses by assigning each bus stop to a monorail stop "area" and having buses going from the monorail stations closest to them to those stops. It seems to me that this would save customers a lot of time and Disney a lot of gas money.
Regardless.....there are a few reasons why such a monorail expansion will not happen anytime soon. One, it does cost quite a bit of money, money that could be spent on creating new attractions that nobody wants (to replace old classics like the original JIA and CoP--so sue me, i'm bitter :brick: ). Two, it's a bit of an unsightly procedure to put up all of those monorail beams and stations--construction sites are generally not pretty and do not contribute to the magical atmosphere (Horizons cough cough --still bitter) Three, Disney doesn't really want to see all these people riding a free and convenient bus to a free and convenient monorail station to ride to a park when they can have you park in the parking lot and pay six bucks. Six bucks times fifty thousand during the high season is a lot of moolah.
So, sorry to build you guys up and shoot ya down, but I don't think it's going to happen (they should have just built the dadgum things in the FIRST PLACE!!!)

I would like to see a Mountain type ride such as The Matterhorn and have them build it in a Swiss type area at the World Showcase.
I don't think the Monster's rollercoaster is needed right now. Animal Kingdom needs to expand Camp Minnie-Mickey and add a thrill ride. What I would love to see but am not holding my breath right now is the expansion of Toon Town there just isn't anything back there and Disney has sure let it go in regards to painting.

I would personally love to see ALL THOSE PROJECTS become a reality. They all are fabulous I put down Beastlie Kingdomme and Australia, b/c I would love to see my favorite park get a big expansion--granted Beastlie is green-lighted...I would also like to see Australia. As for Excavator, it would be a nice way for the Dino Institute to compete with Chester and Hester's, but I don't want it modelled after Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril...I've heard people say that ride is a bit painful. I would love to see something along the lines of California Screamin', using dino bones as supports. However, isn't Excavator basically a "dead" project?
