One Sentence Competition: Summer Fun

[Suchomimus]

Spoiler: First Place

Lastly, in first place taking home the gold for this challenge. Drumroll please! It is none other than @Suchomimus with their Ankylosaur Abode! Their presentation oozed charm and a love for the concept. Covering every aspect of this meet and greet with impeccable detail, and showing how the meet and greet will serve as a way to make a dinosaur to come to life as realistically as possible. Thus casting a wave of magic and suspension of disbelief over guests as they are able to meet what seems to be an authentic ankylosaurus!

Going from 2nd to 1st place, I think this noise is the appropriate response to such a surprising accomplishment in such a short period of time.

P.S. For future reference, I don't go by they/them/their. Instead, I'm a guy so it would be he/him/his.

Minion Spin

Board one of Gru’s new things and uh try to get some of those yellow fruits for these weird yellow things. Your ride thing will speak some weird gibberish, doing stuff while you spin at this weird globe studio land in Orland.

(As you can see, I was stumped and just threw stuff together)​

Wascally Wabbit Wiver Wun

This new addition to Six Flags Great Adventure is sure to make a splash!

Disney’s Storybook Dreams

Hong Kong Disneyland’s brand spanking new castle brings together all of your favorite Princesses, So it seems only fitting it’s Landmark/Weenie attraction should as well, Think of it as “The Great Movie Ride”, but with Disney Princesses:

The theming doesn’t stop with the attraction either, even before stepping on you are immersed in the storyline of DSD, Various photos line the walls of the queue showing off the 12 Disney Princesses mingling, There would also be an assortment of items from each, that would be spread out higgledy-piggledy throughout the queue, Some of which (like the Mirror on the Wall, Genie’s Magic Lamp and Ray the Firefly) react to movement much like in MK’s Peter Pan’s Flight.

The vehicle for Storybook Dreams is a multi-row Tram similar to GMR, Except this version looks more like a Royal Carriage with it’s loyal dark colored stead at the front, When you finally board your vehicle you are told a story from a motherly narrator, To which you predictably fall asleep and enter the many Storybooks of your childhood, Starting with the oldest and some would say fairest of them all “Snow White”, From there each of the 12 Princesses are presented in their own scene, With them also making another special appearance at the very end.

The story is that Yanlouwang, the emperor of Di Yu, or the Chinese Netherworld, is seeking revenge on humanity for mining gold in his Californian domain, so he resurrects an army and transforms them into Jiangshi. The Qilin notices this and rallies the troops to support him! BTW, this is only to add lore to the attraction, not sentences to the post.

Part of Phase 3 of the Walt Disney Studios Overhaul Replacing Marvel: L'Alliance des Super Héros:
Using the same trackless ride system and eye-popping 2.5D tech as Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway, you're invited to join Huey, Dewey, & Louie to find Uncle Scrooge--lost on a recent adventure--by visiting the various rooms of the mansion ala Mystic Manor, but with a twist: the rooms themselves transport you to faraway places! After entering McDuck Manor, you (and even Donald Duck!) join the effort going as far as the Himalayas; are you brave enough?​

WHOA! I am amazed by this, and I made up a trackless dark ride in a Chinese mansion for DCA!

Batmobile Speed Chase

New addition to Islands of Adventure, part of transforming Marvel Super Hero Island into Gotham City / Metropolis part of the deal with
Warner Bros. to use DC Comics and Looney Tunes as Hanna-Barbera into the park, based on Matt Reeves Batman 2022 film, you'll be chasing after the Penguin into the highway, and the streets of Gotham City, but you'll be watch out for the Riddler's one of the traps.
This high-speed trackless dark ride with audio-animatronics and special effects will bring you part of the film based on the comics.

Counted three sentences at first, but I think that first period is meant to be a semicolon? Just thinking outloud given Warner Brothers doesn't have a period after the name of its studio normally.

I've fixed it.

 

[SplashJacket]

There is a park near me. Right now it only has swings and a sandbox (which I love to use), but I would love it if they added this coaster. I call it, the fast fast go go vehicle fun maker.

-Challenge-
Design a new bluesky attraction for any theme park.

Mecha Bowser Chase

Coming to an expansion of Super Nintendo World, this single rail spinning coaster will whoosh and spin around a giant animatronic Bowser, which will occasionally spew fire at guests riding, narrowly missing them (think the fire from X2, but Bowser). Guests waiting in line can also squirt water at guests riding with FLUDD canons during hot seasons to add even more fun and excitement to the experience.

 

[OvertheHorizon]

Transport tech meets time travel at PARALLAX 1250, part of the first expansion for Epic Universe, when twelve guests enter a transfer room, take positions along one of three walls, don protective shoulder/chest restraints, and prepare to travel to a future time where they will view earth from 1250 miles in space (five-times farther than the ISS). Amid flashing lights and fog, a hydraulic lift instantly transports guests to the second floor where a gimbal rumbles and tilts toward a projection dome as they rocket through space to see our familiar blue and green planet only to be told that because of an error they’ve gone back to 1883, but then a course correction completes their journey to 2175 and they now witness diminished polar ice caps, less-green continents, and increased arid lands—an omen of our ecosystem’s peril—before returning to terra firma.

 

[Chaos Cat]

Fire Emblem: Battle at Gronder Field

Coming to Universal's Islands of Adventure (as part of a massive retheme of Lost Continent into Nintendo properties), experience the hit game Fire Emblem Three Houses like never before. Join the Adrestian Empire, the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus, or the Leicester Alliance in this groundbreaking triple dueling coaster, with each track having it's own queue and intro before all three clash on a truly epic scale.​

I expanded on this.

The Zhang Family Manor:
Guests queue through the gardens of a Chinese mansion in San Francisco’s Chinatown. Guests enter a room in the mansion with a silk screen that depicts a Qilin. The screen comes to life when 15 guests enter and the door to the house shuts. It says “Greetings, friends. I am the Qilin, protector of the Zhang family. Yanlouwang, the emperor of Di Yu, or the Chinese Netherworld, is seeking revenge on humanity for mining gold in his Californian domain, so he resurrects an army and transforms them into Jiangshi. I noticed this and I am making troops to help me fight Jiangshi in Orlando! Simply pull of the golden cord on them in front of you to release light from a Magic Lantern attached to your rickshaw that I shall lead. Be aware that Jiangshi are masters of disguise.” Guests release light onto jiangshi posing as the lost expedition on Jungle Cruise, Hitchhiking Ghosts in Haunted Mansion, Pirates on Pirates Of The Caribbean, Tiki Birds on The Tiki Room, Robots on Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin, The Dapper Dans, The Citizens Of Hollywood on Hollywood Boulevard, Pixar Characters in Toy Story Land , and tourists at Galaxy’s Edge. The qilin ends the ride by saying “My eternal gratitude goes to you for helping me defeat those wicked Jiangshi!” Guests exit into the house’s gardens and cross a red bridge to exit. This doesn’t count as part of it.
