Yeah, I'm definitely a Frozen gal, but I see your point completely. By going so Ip with it it has lost it's heritage a bit. I would have put a Frozen ride or land at magic or hollywood.

Re-Do a Retheme!

What I’m not redoing is a retheme, but updates given to attractions. Closest thread I could get to my idea.
PIRATES OF THE CARRIBIEN: The auction scene
I know we all aren’t Gaga for “ten for a hen”, but I think the rum bit could work if expanded on. Here’s my pitch: Redd and the auctioneer are trying to run an auction of stolen good, with valuable things like paintings, furniture, livestock, jewelry, all being mentioned by the pair. But the pirates in the audacience have little interest. All they want is Rum! They makes cracks about the things being offered like in the original scene : “will I take it? that depends, do the eggs have liquor in em?” “Nice table, better to put me rum on!” “That painting ain’t worth the scud on my boot! Now the rum, now that’s an artistic masterpiece!” (I’m not the best at writing jokes like these). Then Redd Chimes in, saying that they’ve had enough, while the pirates respond in retaliation : “aw come one, one more sip” “I plunder better when I’ve had a few!” “No rum! Whats the point of pirating then?”. They then begin to chant “we wants the rum!” Ala “we wants the redhead”, until red fires a shot, calms them down, scene repeat. I’m not the best at writing these jokes, but they’re only a proof of concept. A better actual imagineer would probably have better Jokes than what I have. My idea was the keep the same structure as the og, but update the content of the joke for modern times. Also “we wants the rum” would def sell merch.
edit; I have decided to do my own full “country bear musical jamboree rewrite”. This will be kidna close to a script in some parts, so it will be long

This is a long one, so sorry.
While I do like the country bear musical jamboree, I do think it could’ve been better, even if it keeps the soul of the bears. And I’m going to challenge myself: it still all has to be Disney songs in the main portion of the show.
COUNTRY BEAR MUSICAL JAMBOREE: THE SNEAKMAN CUT.
The show begins with Buff, Max and Melvin telling Henry to hurry up, just as they have for years and years before.
Max: “Hey Henry, let’s get on with the show, he can’t hang around here all day”
Max: “be paitent, takes a little doing”
Melvin: “were kinda hung up here”
Speaker tricks makes it sound like Henry is speaking from behind the audience. He says “take it easy boys, we’re ready to start.” Through the magic of audio, Henry “walks down to the stage”. As he walks by, we hear henry mutter to himself “the nerve of some people”. Henry then says “gimmie a little intro there Gomer, and then gives out his intro. Then, he welcomes on the five bear rugs, and he and them sing a uptempo, “Bear band serenade reminiscent” version of “bear necessities”.
Then, Trixie comes on. She begins to sing the opening verses of “I won’t say I’m in love”, but then buff max and Melvin burst in, saying that she’s been doing this routine for years, and she can’t hide her true feelings. Trixie sings Meg’s parts, while the three trophy heads sing the muses part in a way of chastising trixie.
Kiss the Girl stays the same.
The Three Sun Bonnets sing “someday my Prince will come”, with the slideshow being showing one of the three trying to woo a male bear, but getting denied. Every time on the slideshow, the romantic gesture gets comically bigger and bigger until it is very much overkill, with a humorous rejection every time to boot.
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocoius with stays the same as It is during the show.
Shaker and Wendell labeled as “the mineral kings”, with max remarking they “sound better than they look”. They sing a jaunty version of “you’ve got a friend in me” in a Duet, with buff, max and Melvin doing background vocals. Shaker is wearing a furry hat, and at the end of the song, a skunk pops out and sings the final “you’ve got a friend In me”. As the lights go down, we hear Shaker and Wendell scramble offstage to get away, crashes to boot. At the end of the crashes, we hear shaker remark, “well, that’s the end of that suit”
The “spotlight over here Rufus” bit from the opening from the real show happens here, but then Teddi Barra descends, with the three trophy heads cheering her on. Teddi sings rainbow connection. Henry joins In halfway through, and they sing the end part together. They then have the fan favorite “soon as I get a ladder” dialogue.
We hear a twang. Then a second twang. Out comes big Al. The then belts out “remember me” in the only way big al can, while crying all the way through. Once he gets to the final verse “until your in my arms again” he breaks down, saying he can’t go on, and beginning to cry. Melvin says “those poor curtains!” Henry then chuckles to himself, saying that “we’ll remember THAT performance for a long time”. Buff then retorts saying, “speak for yourself, I want to forget it!”
Henry then remarks that through good times and bad times, the bears are a family, and always stick together. He then sings the first first of “if I didn’t have you” with max interjecting with the “no way” on the handsome line. The second verse is rewritten to be about how the bears would “give it all away” to sing one more tune together. Each of the different acts sings a different line from the show on their own, with everyone singing together on the final few “I wouldn’t have nothing if I didn’t have you”’s.
Then big Al comes out again with “blood on the saddle” once everyone is done singing, with buff max and Melvin commanding Henry to get him off the stage, and how he’s had us turn. As he sings the last part of blood on the saddle, a prop cane slowly slides across his stage, with the Curtians closing, and a crash sounding after he finishes (I couldn’t help
Myself, sorry). Henry then says their one big happy family, thanks for coming, then come again plays.
This is a concept of what I would do. I tried to make it still true to the original show, and keeping what the current show did well, while rearranging some acts for better humor, and to fit in more time for some new acts I came up with.

Surprisingly the only song I hated was "Try Everything", it didn't seem to fit as a country song. And seemed forced by Disney.

I was actually surprised too that I liked it. Usually I dislike a lot of what Disney is doing nowadays. A blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes I suppose.

The Spirit of Norway
----- (360 circlevision film, similar to original version)
----- (A new version of the old theater film that showed the country and it's people. The feature would show the real Norway, with a new guest narrator and an updated soundtrack. Like the other pavilions’ films you would even see it from their vantage point.)
Re-Do: Akershus Royal Banquet Hall
Elsa’s Ice Palace
A family platter style meal with exclusive character interactions. The building’s interior and exterior would look like Elsa’s castle from the original film. You get to eat various traditional Norwegian foods and meet Anna, Elsa, Khristoff and even Olaf. I’d get rid of the rest of the princesses because it frankly doesn’t make any sense. There’s plenty of other places to meet them.

Oooooooo, nice pics.
I never really cared for Maelstrom, but it would have been cool as a concept for a much better version.

I always wanted more attractions in Epcot. It's a haul in the morning no matter what entrance you're coming into to get to an attraction.

There's no way they'll do an expansion at Epcot. They don't even want to put rides in half the countries.

Re-Do: China
There’s is plenty of space in this section of the park. Enough to build many new experiences and even a new resort, The Royal Grand China Resort.
The Red Dragon
----- (rollercoaster, similar to incredicoaster and slinky dog)
----- (It would be a bit of an homage to Westcot’s never made attraction. That was to be placed in the Asia section. In it you were able to ride on the Great Wall of China. However there would be no dragon teeth mountain part in this one though.)
Yangtze River Cruise
----- (boat ride, similar to nav’i river journey and el rio del tiempo)
----- (Explore the beauty of china on it’s longest river. And take in the many plants, flowers and architecture of the area. Setting the mood with some help from instrumentals and screens along the way.)
Mulan
----- (dark ride, similar to snow white’s enchanted wish)
----- (It tells the story of Mulan and the people and creatures she meets along her journey. Of course it would be based on the animated movie and not the forgettable live action. No mushu, no money. Although the film was actually one of the better ones… but that’s not saying much.)

China sounds like it could be Epic.

Lotus Blossom is pretty good. It doesn't get much love and is called "ordinary mall chinese" but I like it. I love Mall chinese food though, so I'm not much of a critic.

I love the hotel idea. What an advantage a resort would have, if it was built in the World Showcase.
The Great Gonzo

I love Chinese History, so it would be cool if the resort could build upon that.

Re-Do: Reflections of China
Splendid China
----- (theater movie, similar to impression de france)
----- (Our host Mushu from the movie Mulan shows us around his country and the many wonders it possesses.)
Re-Do: Nine Dragons
The Forbidden Temple
A Chinese buffet, with all of your favorite Chinese delicacies, like chicken wings, beef skewers, spare ribs, egg rolls and rices.

Re-Do: Refreshment Outpost and Expansion area (where Equatorial Africa was supposed to go)
Greece
With it’s various historical architecture Greece was one of the only countries on my list. I thought about Brazil, but decided a Jesus statue wasn’t the way to go. Because it was a bit too religious. Besides Greece is more aesthetically pleasing, in my opinion. Plus it has great movie tie ins for it’s attractions and many merchandise possibilities.
Hercules
----- (dark ride, similar to winnie the pooh)
----- (Relive the adventures of Hercules from the classic film. And see the many great characters and musical numbers. Witness Hercules’ many struggles in trying to become a true hero and his eventual battle with Hades and his cronies.)
Percy Jackson and the Temple of the Gods
----- (indoor rollercoaster, similar to hagrid's motorbike and guardians)
----- (Percy is attacked by several Gods and Creatures throughout this action packed adventure rollercoaster. Each proving to be as tumultuous as the next. Ranging from Medusa the snake-haired witch, the water monster Hydra and a vicious Minotaur. Besides screens, animatronics and even water elements play a part in the many scenes. The vehicles would look like boats as well, able to seat up to 4 people per cart.)
Greece: The Ancient World
----- (360 movie, similar to o canada)
----- (Many of the common things of our world like democracy, science and art began way back in Ancient times in Greece. This is why the city of Athens is generally considered to be the birthplace of Western civilization.)

That sounds pretty neat man! I don't think Percy is a big enough franchise though. It seems to be very third or fourth tier.
