POLL: Which castle should I use? (also 2nd Draft of MY Disney Park Proposal)

[cloudboy]

I was disapointed that they never did Westcot. I wonder if that is why some people really don't like California Adventure - they are thinking about what could have been.

People on here don't like old posts, do they? I kind of like them myself - you get to rethink ideas and it beats creating 20 new threads on the old topic.

I still think you should think about a new park, a little different from the other Disney Parks. : )

How deeply have you gotten into the ride designs themselves?

That sounds a bit far-fetched to me, but some may feel that way. California Adventure really doesn't have as strong of a theme as EPCOT, Disney-MGM, Animal Kingdom, etc.; and seems mostly to consist of thrill-type rides themed around the state of Callifornia (with the exception of Hollywood Pictures).

I was thinking of something I could do
with a group of aquatic/sea/water-themed rides that California Adventure and Tokyo DisneySea shared in common (Jumping Jellyfish, The Whirlpool, etc.) along with a few originals entitled Hook's Revenge, King Neptune's Spinning Trident, and Lilo & Stitch's Hawaiian Roller Coaster. Originally, I planned to have a water park combined with a "dry ride" area consisting largely of rides too intense to fit into the Magic Kingdom. However, this concept seemed weak to me; since guests (especially in a Disney theme park resort) would go to a water park to ride water slides, wave pools, etc,; not to ride mechanical rides. Then I thought about a park similar to Tokyo DisneySea, and then more like Universal's Island's of Adventure; but those didn't work out with these rides either; especially the IOA concept, which really has no strong theme like Disney's parks have and is nothing but a groups of unrelated, loosely-knit themed areas tied around thrill rides.

I really can't think of anything off hand, especially with the rides I mentioned above. However, it should be different from anything else Disney has, especially since I designed this from the standpoint as a U.S. theme park due to familiarity with the culture and that it would be nice to have another Disney theme park close by. Therefore, my 3rd park shouldn't be another EPCOT, Animal Kingdom, etc. The reason I included a studios park was since I really wanted this theme park resort to have a TV/Movie/Animation production facility of some sort; but with primarily different rides and attractions from Disney-MGM!

If anyone has any ideas for a third park, especially with the rides I mentioned above, please LMK by posting your ideas!

I really haven't gone quite that far! In fact, I've never even been to WDW or any other Disney parks (I've read a lot about them), but I am currently planning a trip to WDW, hopefully sometime soon!

WOW!!! Pretty good ideas, but I believe Your Discoveryland, has taken in it own theme park status. I'm studying urban desigining and theme park designing myself, and have created my own versions of Disney's parks. just keep in mind one thing. Don't create a "Disney-MGM" where all your E ticket attractions are located in one corner, because it will out weight the rest of your park. If you feel as though you still want to include those attractions, combine them together to add one attraction. An example of this is at Hong Kong Disneyland, where instead of built another Splash Mountain, they team the idea of a log flume ride with Pirates of Caribbean. The new "Pirates" attraction will include one large 4 story water fall.

Just a thought for making your new Disneyland, By the way the Beauty and the Beast Castle, gots my vote. You can make a French little village, with Cinderella's Stepmother's Chateau.

How about this idea. I know its way out there but it seems like this whole theme park is. Not that your ideas arent great but it seems highly unaffordable, and un-realistic. But my idea is totally throw the idea of a castle but go with something else original or something that disney already has. How Bout Pride Rock. Now that would be an intersting sight. Id go just o seet hat :lol: :sohappy: :hammer: or how bout a Giant Mickey Head. you can complete mickeys body. Epcot has his arm ,and MGM has his hat some why not bring that all together and make a Humoungous Mickey. That would be as sweet as a Bad Mamma jamma :drevil:

That's a HORRIBLE idea! Not only would those turn out to be eyesores, but this goes against everything Disney stands for an sets up in their theme parks! Also, my theme park is no more unaffordable and un-realistic than any of Disney's others, in fact, mine would be considered cheap compared to anything on the scale of WDW! :brick:
