Challenge #4: Swinging On By

-Back Story-

Just a few days ago Disney filed a patent for new swinging coaster technology. Not much information was given with this except for a couple of design sketches

-Challenge-

With so little announced about this, your challenge is to use this patent design to create any sort of ride design you want. It can be an IP or not.

-Rules-

For this challenge, you may use 1-3 sentences and 1 picture describing what the ride would look like. Due to posting the wrong prompt, you will have 2 weeks for this prompt as well making it due October 20th by 10 PM EST.

ROGUE SQUADRON: TRENCH RUN
​

Join Poe Dameron and the Resitance aerial fighters in the first expansion announced for Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, in a thrilling outer space battle against the sinister First Order!

Board a prototype X-Wing DLR-55 fighter, whose invisible protective hull simulates flying free through the cosmos, on a mission to destroy the First Order's Moonblaster Alpha, a stripped-down and sleeker Death Star they intend to mass produce should this destructive test prove successful.

Blast off from a hidden planetary base and plunge into Moonblaster's metallic trenches, your swinging vehicle simulating banked turns and other aerial maneuvers, in a roller coaster/dark ride which recalls the famous Death Star battle while remaining its own original creation!

Spider-Man: The New Avenger

One of the many reasons why Spider-Man is so beloved is because he has some of the coolest powers in comic-book lore. Who wouldn't want to go swinging around from building to building on webs, battling villains, and saving the city?

Coming to Disney's California Adventure, in a new Marvel expansion, is Spider-Man: The New Avenger, as guests use this new swinging coaster design to soar through the streets of Queens and try to fend off the city from the clutches of villains that rotate, similar to the scenes of Star Tours, where each ride is a different set of villains to defeat as you ride through various IMAX projection screens and physical sets along with the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

Flight of the dragon

in this ride placed in fantasyland (expansion), you play the role of a dragon flying through castles and over medieval lands. Armies may try to shoot at the dragon, but it always escape by swooping quickly. Then the big climax happens, a one on one battle with a knight in a deep,dark cave. The battle results is a close call, but the dragon wins the battle and gets to go home and rest easy on its large collection of gold. With a mixture of physical props and projections, the riders will really feel like they're a dragon having an epic adventure.

San Fransokyo Chase!

Housed in the new robotics pavilion in EPCOT, San Fransokyo Chase involves the students of SFIT hosting an exhibit when a super villain steals the tech they were gonna showcase!

The members of Big Hero 6 run off to catch the villain, but Fred decides that everyone deserves a chance to help save the day and decides to take us with them in a rocket car they had designed for the exhibit!

Guest board the new swinging coaster for an exciting chase full of twists, turns, action, and adventure as they swing through the streets of San Fransokyo to help Big Hero 6 save the day!​

Up, Up, and Away!

Join your favorite characters from Up as you swing through the beautiful jungles of Paradise Falls, with yours friends Russel, Carl, Doug, and Kevin.

Engage in a reselling re-telling of a classic tale (Fantasyland dark ride style) in Magic Kingdom's Asventureland, featuring the villain Charles Muntz and his army of intelligent, aviator dogs (who try to shoot you out of the sky).

This ride is the perfect combination of light thrills and immersiveness (via mostly real sets but also screens for the harder to accomplish scenes) which make it fun for all ages. ​

 

[Pi on my Cake]

So, the next round should start today,right!

 

[AceAstro]

So, the next round should start today,right!

Yes it will! I ending up going to see Penn & Teller last night (A great show, I recommend it to anyone) so I didn’t get reviews done last night. I’ll start them in a minute here and then post the new prompt!

I like this idea! I think it would really fit into SW:GE . It would be a perfect use of the coaster design to give you that feel of dodging attacks and making smart manoeuvres.

This is what I thought of first when I saw these patents. While I am not sure where it would necessarily fit (Do we lose Mike and Sulley to the Rescue?), I think it is still a highly logical project.

By the sounds of it, it almost sounds like a new updated version of the main coaster from the planned Beastly Kingdom. It always sounded like an interesting idea so with technology like this I feel like a dragon coaster could be done really well and look really nice!

I feel like BH6 should be more represented through the parks. I like that this would be a new pavilion in EPCOT but now that it is confirmed that GotG is going to be a coaster does it makes sense for two EPCOT pavilions to be a roller coaster?

Good call on an IP here!! A floating house would work with this design! Swinging around by being attached to the hose would really help with immersiveness. I think it would also fit quite nicely in Adventureland as well!

Challenge #5 - A Whole New Land

-Back Story-

There are a lot of well-themed lands around the Disneyland Resort. These lands are favourites of many Disney fans throughout the world. Unfortunately, one of these will no longer be a favourite in the same way.

-Challenge-

The challenge is to re-theme Critter Country, Grizzly Peak Airfield, or Paradise Pier( From Ariel's Grotto around to where the Maliboomer was. Your re-theme will be used instead of Pixar Pier). The catch is that all attractions in the land must remain open and fit with this re-theme. You can also re-theme one attraction, shop or restaurant to make it fit if needed.

-Rules-

For this challenge, you may use 1-5 sentences and 1 picture describing which land you will be changing and what the new ride theme would be. That is why you have up to 5 sentences for this prompt! The prompt is due on October 27th by 10 PM EST and reviews will be posted not long after!​

discovery bay

the unused tony baxter land has finally come to reality! splash mountain will be rethemed into the western river expedition, the ride that fans been dreaming of for years. While winnie the pooh would be replaced by figment's fireworks factory, a shooting ride where you shoot at physical imaginative sets with "firework cannons". Finally the hungry bear would be rethemed into the nautilus utilizing disney's new immersive screen technology.

 

[kmbmw777]

Do we only get to replace one ride total?

 

[AceAstro]

Do we only get to replace one ride total?

Correct. As each land has only 1-2 attractions, the idea is one will stay the same (The facade can be changed but the ride stays the same) and then the other ride can be changed to fit the new land.

Okay! thank you.
