Oh, hell NO! This is based on the far superior 1999 documentary series and the arena spectacular show based on it. The movie is based on the TV series, but sucked, because the producers thought a dinosaur film without dialogue would not work - turned out inserting talking dinosaurs was its failure. XD
I heard from somewhere that they’re rebooting the Walking With series sometime in 2019/2020.

DHS - Enchanted the Musical
open-uri20150422-12561-ms34bn_c52bad8d.jpeg

In this new show, the cult classic movie, Enchanted will be recreated with new jokes, songs, and great sets. There will be an effect similar to mickey and minnie's runaway railway where the show will seamlessly transition from the animated fairytale world to the real world. Many scenes will be cut and some story elements changed, but overall, this new play will be a hit with everyone in the family, especially ones who love princesses.
BONUS: The Christmas overlay will be presented as a sequel of the movie, showing how both couples spend their new lives, and Christmases, in their worlds.
Enchanted is one of those movies that you either love or hate. To me, I don't really like this movie, but it being a musical would be something different. I enjoy that you're incorporating the effects from Minnie and Mickey's Runaway Railway (I'm assuming 2 1/2-D?) and putting them into a show. One flaw that I have is, this movie is not exactly one that can be recreated into something else. This is a movie that you seldom see anywhere, and it will once in awhile pop in to say hello. That's just a thing that always gets me.

Overall, I wish I knew a little more about what would actually happen, how long it'd take, etc. Nice job with this!

Bonus: A sequel to a movie as a musical. Never saw that coming! +1
No Animal Kingdom?

DHS - Captain America Live!
maxresdefault.jpg

Coming to Hollywood Studios is an IP never used in Disney World (because its not allowed, but let's ignore that cuz I love it), especially not in a way this unique.

Captain America: Live will transfer guests back to the 1940s when Captain America was going around the country selling war bonds for World War II, as seen in Captain America: The First Avenger.

The show will feature several musical numbers taken from the movie (Star Spangled Man from TFA and a variation on Home of the Brave from his movie in 1990), and will tell the story of Captain America fighting the Red Skull and saving Bucky Barnes, all while he sublimely tries to sell us war bonds.

BONUS: For July 4th, Captain America: Live will feature real military personal.

Animal Kingdom - Dinosaur Continent

Dinoland USA needs to differentiate itself from Jurassic Park in every way, so the backstory of the land will need to be changed from we bring the dinosaurs to you to we bring you to the dinosaurs.

In this lands new backstory, an institution discovers time travel and they set up tours to past ages for current mankind to spectate history, and they chose to bring people back to the age of the dinosaur.

This land features many smaller attractions, which have realistic theming, and it features a large EMV where we ride on the backs of the triceratops and run through the countryside

BONUS: Finding Nemo will be .a new show inspired by The Good Dinosaur.​

I have never seen a Captain America movie, ever. So I can't really say much about this. I do, however, think that this is a really good idea, ignoring the reality part of course! People do enjoy Captain America, and people do enjoy musicals. This would be a nice blend and a new take on superheroes! Having it set in the 40s adds the extra sparkle to it being a musical, that time period has very musical vibes!

I think that for the area it's in, it doesn't really fit. Honestly, nothing fits together on Sunset Boulevard, so this is okay. Overall, this is a nice proposal, although I think you could've used your last two remaining sentences to tie it together.

Bonus: God Bless America! +1

Dinosaur Continent needs to be a thing. Dinoland USA is great in all (cough, Primeval Whirl, cough), but it does need to have some sort of differences and has to actually be dinosaur-like. Having a backstory to a land is something that is starting to form in theme parks, so I think bringing people to the age of the dinosaurs is great! This sort of all ties in to the current Dinosaur, with taking people to the age of dinosaurs, and exploring the terrain.

I would really like to know more about the EMV ride. I would love to ride on the bag of a Triceratops. Great job!

Bonus: Oh yes, a singing Arlo! +1

Hollywood Studios - The Legend of Hercules
170339_hercules.jpg

From the far away land of ancient Greece, comes an epic retelling of the legendary Hercules, in a brand new 45-minute muse-ical that goes the distance. An adaptation of the 1997 film, the musical takes a few liberties with the movie's story for the sake of pacing, but would include all of the beloved characters and gospel songs from the movie. It would take inspiration from the Conan the Barbarian show that was at Universal Studios Hollywood, with a lot of Lion King-style visual effects, puppetry, and costumes, with the theatre exterior and foyer being reimagined as a Greek temple.

Bonus - Ancient Greece doesn't exactly blend with modern day holidays, so in this festive spin-off of the musical, Hercules and friends are celebrating Dionysia, a celebration of the wine god Dionysus held in Athens, often with Greek tragedies and parades for entertainment.

...

Animal Kingdom - Dinoland
6a01156e4c2c3d970c0192ab6359ef970d-pi

Dinoland is completely re-themed, save the Boneyard, Restaurantosaurus, and the Triceratops spinner (redesigned as a "Pterodactyl flight model" spinner), the land is now set around circa the 1910s, around an extensive digsite and paelontology laboratory run by S.E.A. agents Professor F. Ossil and Dr. Hollis. Countdown To Extinction returns with a new script, involving the time travel element but now the scientists are merely experimenting, sending guests back in time to the Cretaceous just as a volcano erupts, the ride ending with the guests' vehicle getting actually chased by the Carnotaur. Replacing the Primeval Whirl area is Extinction Flumes, a Splash Mountain-sized log flume ride that takes guests to prehistoric Florida, encountering various Ice Age beasts, early man, and natural selection at its finest.

Bonus - Replacing the Nemo musical is the BBC's Walking With Dinosaurs arena spectacular, with the theatre now becoming an arena, with the show taking place in the middle rather than on a frontal stage.
So, aside from the few puns, this musical sounds like something that I would enjoy, and many fans of Hercules would as well. This is a lengthy musical for a Disney park, but it would sound good in terms of pacing. I think keeping in line with Disney animations for musicals is better because most of them already have songs.

I have some questions on how puppetry would work with this movie/musical adaption. Would Hercules be played by a big puppet? How nice.

Overall, you really hit the spot with using a great movie, and turning into something that would potentially be even greater!! Fantastic!

Bonus: A Wine God overlay seems like it would fit more with EPCOT and the Food & Wine. +1

It seems like many people this round have decided to take a step back in time, both Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom. I like the idea of fully turning this into an excavation site, but I don't know how I feel about keeping the Triceratops Spinner and simply retheming it. One great thing about this is the SEA characters. Nice little pun in there. Bringing back Countdown to Extinction is something that really needs to be done, so hats off to you on that!

I don't know how Extinction Flumes would fit with the dinosaur theme or in that area. I think that the area could be used on something else. Overall, nice job!

Bonus: A middle-stage arena is something different. I'm only imagining boxing dinosaurs. +1

Hollywood Studios:

DUMBO the MUSICAL

View attachment 319156
Rumors have spread for years about Disney Theatrical Productions creating a live stage show based on their Oscar-winning 1941 animated classic film Dumbo. Advances in stage technology have finally made flying an elephant on stage possible, and the rich, Oscar-winning film score, delightful characters and colorful location of the film will fill the Theater of the Stars with such musical film classics as “Pink Elephants on Parade”, “Casey, Jr.” and the Oscar-nominated Best Song, “Baby Mine.” Audiences will witness a full traveling circus being assembled on stage during a thunderstorm, a flock of crows (actually called a “murder,” but this is Disney after all) singing “When I See an Elephant Fly,” and most spectacularly of all, Dumbo himself flying not just around the stage but actually over the audience itself. Dumbo the Musical, heading from the Big Top to Broadway, but playing daily at Disney Hollywood Studios, bringing this classic Disney film to “ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls” for years to come.

Bonus:
WALT DISNEY’S VERY MERRY UNBIRTHDAY PARTY
June 5th is celebrated not just at Hollywood Studios, but throughout the entire Disney universe as “Walt Disney’s Very Merry Unbirthday Party,” with special treats available, a special fireworks spectacular and an all-night party to celebrate Walt’s half-year birthdate (to avoid it being lost in the Christmas festivities of the actual date, December 5th).

Animal Kingdom:

PRIMEVAL WORLD- Brought to you
By
PROFESSOR LUDWIG VON DRAKE

Professor Ludwig von Drake, Donald Duck’s brilliant but eccentric uncle, has taken over the management of Dinoland and has transformed it into a huge laboratory for his studies of time travel and the primeval world of Dinosaurs. Every attraction has been transformed by him into an experiment for the professor to learn more about these creatures that ruled the earth millions of years ago. Dinosaur is now a time machine used to bring examples of dinosaurs forward in time to the present, where he can study them. The former TriceraTop Spin is now Pteradon Twirl, where the aerodynamics of several species of Pteradons are studied (since Professor Von Drake learned that triceratops couldn’t actually fly); Primeval Whirl has been replaced with Stegachase, a steeplechase-type attraction where Stegosaurs and other herbivores race against Velociraptors and other carnivores to learn how they survived, and the Boneyard has been expanded as new varieties of dinosaurs have been discovered. The former Restaurantosarus is now the Professor’s Lunch Box, a buffet with Carnivore and Herbivore serving lines.

Bonus:
“Dinosongs,” an original musical, tells the story of how Professor Ludwig Von Drake, along with the equally eccentric Professor Ludwig Von Goof (yes, he really does exist) and his nephew Goofy, stumble into Professor Ludwig’s time machine and are transported back to the Primeval Era, meeting the characters of the Disney released-film “Dinosaur” and enlist their help in returning to the present, using live actors, state-of-the-art theatre special effects and “Walking With Dinosaurs” technology in a family-friendly spectacle of song, dance and dinosaurs (with a few lemurs thrown in)!
Oh goodness, we're now talking high-class Disney theming right here. Taking Dumbo and putting it into a musical feels like something that's been done before. But what you're saying with the new technology, this could be remarkable. I am wondering, though, is this going to be a full-fledged circus, or a recreation of the 1941 Dumbo movie? Either way, it would be a technological marvel, and audiences would love it. Great proposal!

Bonus: I've never heard of this, but it sure does sound cool! +1

I would have never thought about incorporating a Disney character into Dinoland. Ludwig von Drake sounds like one of those people who would have a lab set up here to do some tests and excavate fossils. The only fatal flaw in this is remaking every ride into an experiment. I think it would be sufficient to have one lab ride and then one ride that is themed to dinosaurs themselves, leaving the tests behind. And, I don't know if I missed this or not, but where is Dinosaur in all this?

Overall, this is a great proposal, and it's something that could really happen! Great job!

Bonus: Ludwig von Goof, timeless! +1

Challenge 2
Disneyland and Disneyland California Adventure


mauricescottage-conceptart.jpg


We've visited all four theme parks of "The World", but now we'll be heading to the place that started it all!

-Background Information-
Disneyland, 1955. Disneyland California Adventure, 2001. One was successful, one was not. Can you tell which was a failure? The Disneyland Resort has gone through some tough times, but its slowly piecing itself back together with new classics. Walt Disney always said Disneyland will never be completed, and that definitely shows today!

-Challenge-
Disneyland:
For this challenge, create a new "timeless" dark ride for Fantasyland. It cannot be a re-skin of a current ride.

Disney California Adventure: Before the Inside Out portion of Pixar Pier opens, create a new attraction, shop, or restaurant that would fit the theme of the movie.

-Bonus-
Disneyland:
If you really want a challenge, make this attraction a "spiritual successor" to any attraction that has since been long gone.

Disneyland California Adventure: The name doesn't really fit, so as a bonus, briefly plan out new lands that would fit with the theme of this park. Doing so will give you an extra 3 points!

-Rules-
You may use between 1 and 3 sentences and up to 1 image. For the bonus you may use 1 sentence. The deadline is Friday, October 20, 2018 at 8:59 PM EST. Critiques will come shortly after, with Challenge 3 being posted at 11:59 PM EST.

-Tips-

K.I.S.S. – Keep it simple, silly. Try not to complicate or overthink things too much. It’s a simple, casual competition – there are no eliminations. Propose as you please!

-Judging Criteria-

Is it creative?
Does it accomplishes everything within the challenge guidelines?
Is it realistic?

-Reminders-
We are already on challenge 3, and we've visited 4 parks so far. We've got this challenge plus so much more to go! Good luck.​

Disneyland - Journey to Mythica

iur

A group of archaeologists find an ancient dragon statue that cracks open and unleashes a baby dragon. This dragon leads the group and the visiting guests through a portal to a magical land full of mythological creatures and gold. But evil pirates loom by trying to get the riches - now the archaeologists have to outrun the pirates and get the riches before the pirates do!
BONUS: This ride has many connections to Journey into Imagination, including the little dragon mascot.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DCA - Yeast of Eden
maxresdefault.jpg

Angry Dogs will be replaced by Yeast of Eden, the infamous pizza place with the broccoli pizza. But the DCA version will have more than just broccoli, in fact, it has a bunch of toppings to choose from as well as sauces, making this a great place for choosy kids and adventurous tasters alike!
BONUS: The now unfitting paradise park will be replaced by a mini chinatown area with a brand new mulan ride.

Apologies, could you explain the DCA Bonus a little better, I don't really understanding what we have to do. The wording is a little vague. And do we only do this in one sentence?

Disneyland:

THE SWORD IN THE STONE


1539627605303.png

Disney’s classic film “The Sword in the Stone” comes to life in this magnificent addition to Fantasyland in Disneyland. The story of Arthur, a humble squire nicknamed “Wart” who eventually becomes King of Britain, is portrayed in a series of state-of-the-art animatronic scenes interspersed with high-resolution film sequences and spectacular special effects, all supported by the delightful musical score by the Sherman Brothers and featuring such entertaining characters as Merlin, the brilliant but unusual wizard who knows Arthur’s destiny because he can remember the future, his crotchety but wise-old owl Archimedes and the eccentric, evil witch Madam Mim, who battles Merlin with black magic. Scenes show Merlin transforming Arthur into a bird to learn to fly, a fish to learn to swim and a squirrel to learn about gravity, Merlin battling Madam Mim in a dramatic battle of good magic against dark magic and the climatic final scene showing the boy Arthur pulling the sword from the stone, thus declaring him to be the rightful King of Britain.

Bonus:
BATUU TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM
The “Batuu Transportation System” (inspired by the much-loved-and-missed WEDWay People Mover in Tomorrowland) transports humans, other intelligent species and droids throughout Black Spire Outpost on Batuu, the location featured in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland.

Disney California Adventure:

THE INSIDE-OUT/TOU-EDISNI SHOP
The colors of emotions are featured on everything available in the “Inside-Out/Tou-edisnI” Shop in Pixar Pier. “Inside-Out” (for short) features clothing lines for men, women and children inspired by the film, emphasizing the distinctive colors of each emotion (red, blue, green, yellow and purple) along with color-changing coffee mugs, mood rings and home lighting accessories. Visitors to Pixar Pier might enter the Inside-Out Shop feeling a bit blue or even red (when they realized they missed their Fast-Pass time for Guardians of the Galaxy) but will come out feeling yellow with joy.

Bonus:

DISNEY CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE

1539627749532.png

The historical adventure that is the history of California is presented in the five lands of California Adventure: El Camino Real 1769 (the settlement of California by Spain); Gold Rush Gulch 1849 (the discovery of gold in northern California and how it spurred settlement there): San Francisco 1906 (featuring a dark ride recreation of the legendary earthquake); The City of Angels 1920 (the heyday of the film era and art deco); and Crossroads of the World 1940 (featuring the many cultural enclaves that so many Californian cities contained, including Chinatowns, Little Japans and diverse Hispanic communities).

Well, I can safely say that this personifies California in a nutshell. Why couldn't this have been DCA to begin with?

Bonus:
In one sentence, create a land that would better fit with the park's name, Disney's California Adventure.

What you're basically doing is creating a land that fits in with the original purpose of the park, bringing California into a theme park.
