Round Seven Critiques:
@Ludpat Mike – A New Treasure Planet
Oh, interesting! A robocoaster would make for an ambitious take on a Treasure Planet ride. It would stand out considering Disney doesn’t have one of those, taking guests on quite the ride. The actual plot sounds slightly muddled when meshed with the title, which sounds like a sequel despite the plot potentially being a bit more stand-alone.
@Brer Panther – Voyage to Treasure Planet
Now, this sounds like a fun fusion of “old and new”. Taking the ride styles of some classic attractions, while mixing them with modern tech for advanced animatronics and a “living character”. It sounds like some fun components for a classic “book report” dark ride.
@TwilightZone – Space Mountain: Treasure Planet
And once more, Disneyland Paris’s Space Mountain undergoes a metamorphosis! In all seriousness, this does sound like it would make for probably the most unique of the Space Mountain iterations. Sailing among pirate ships in the stars certainly captures the unique flavor of this movie.
@TheSquirrel – The Compass Point
Another short and sweet pitch. I do like the basic sound of this restaurant, but I would have been interested in hearing a little more about the stage. What kind of show or something would be featured on it?
@Evilgidgit – Treasure Planet: Solar Surfers
Solar surfing was definitely an eye-catching way to introduce Jim Hawkins and made for a memorable sequence in the movie, so it’s a natural for inspiring a ride. A slot car dark ride would be a solid format for catching some of the speed and swerving movement. I know the solar surfer was a standing vehicle in the film, but I think it’d be an alright concession to more standard seating if that’s what you intended.
@Pi on my Cake – Treasure Trails
You have written up plenty of interesting walkways over the course of this game, but this is one that strikes me for more of the subtlety. The walkways of Discoveryland still bare the steampunk designs that had been at the root of the land’s foundation, but a touch-up could really add a new sparkle to them. Adding in the lighting effects you mention could capture some of the wonder from that Map Sphere and bring some new life to the land.
@spacemt354 – Discoveryland Treasures
It is a shame that Discoveryland had shifted so much away from that starting foundation of classic steampunk science ficition. This store would help to recapture some of that energy, channeling it through the Treasure Planet theme for some real atmosphere compared to the more muddled mix of sci-fi the land has gotten.
@b-wolf95 – RLS Legacy
Part of what makes Treasure Planet so unique is that great mix of old school pirate adventure with sci-fi spectacle, and this walkthrough would be a great opportunity to showcase it. Exploring the chambers of the ship and discovering things like the Map Sphere would be quite the treat. The attraction idea does come into similar territory to the Nautilus walkthrough currently there, but this could stand on its own.
@Solaris Knight – Treasure Planet: Solar Soarin’
This is another good take on an attraction inspired by the solar surfing sequence. Although the other has the benefits of practical speed, a simulator in the Flight of Passage mold could offer an easier space for having more individualized ride vehicles. That way, riders could feel like they have a more personalized experience in solar surfing.
