All the talk over in the Disneyland Forward thread about a third gate has me wondering what are the ideal possible themes for a third park in Disneyland? Westcot is definitely the most popular option, probably followed by Disney Sea. Of the two, I think reviving the Long Beach Disney Sea is more interesting but obviously the Toy Story Lot is likely too small for anything that. I do think the two ideas could be pretty easily combined, however. I also would love to see a retooled and reworked Disney's America as I think Liberty Street and Big City USA are two lands that would be excellent additions to the Resort.
As for original themes, a park centered around folklore from different countries could be interesting. Such a park could include a "New Fantasyland", but also lands revolving around Ancient Greece (Hercules, Odyssey), Arabia (Aladdin, Sinbad, Gilgamesh), China (Mulan, Yeti, Monkey King), and Mesoamerica (Emperor's New Groove, Indiana Jones, Raging Spirits). If we really want to hamfist Marvel representation into the park, we could still do a New York City land here and liberate California Adventure from his comic captors.
