Since the venue is undergoing a major refurb I decided to do a 'what if' and break out some Armchair Imagineering.
What if the restaurant was to be removed and a next-gen interactive m&g installed. I think the idea is employed at TDL and I think it would be very successful in the MK. Certainly guest demand seems to indicate people just can't get enough of the new style m&gs.
But why stop there? Considering the size of the restaurant it should not be too difficult to imagineer a Gringotts hydrolater-esque, I mean elevator-esque ride that descends far below the castle to encounter whatever may be down there. A passage could connect the castle to Philharmagic building (after it is relocated of course) where either a walk through or other style attraction could be added. Dragons would work as a theme. The living fire-breathing type!
The passage could be enclosed in an above ground arch even though people would think they are at a great depth below ground as it works in DA. Could be the E-ticket the MK needs.

I'd love it!
