The Ultimate Disney Resort

[romanarms]

kingmickey- what i meant is: the witch wrath will obviously have a story... so the question is: will it be original, or will you use a plot that Disney created? (it doesnt really matter for anything, i just wanted to know).

and, i am with mater, try to add some villain touch to the nemo themed attractions.

 

[KingMickey]

Ok. To anwser all of your questions:

About Nemo, I can see how it isn't tied to Villains. There will obviously be scenes with Bruce, the shark and the anglerfish (if you can even consider them Villains). When you have a theme park, theming is key, but you don't necessarily have to stick to it 100% all the time. (For example, DCA. It's a park dedicated to California, yet it mixes attractions that are indirectly related to the areas they are found in. ) And you have to add in attractions that 3 year olds won't be afraid of-it's family firendly parks.

Jeany, about a Kingdom Keepers attraction. I have to say I LOVE the book! The sequel comes out in a few days and I'm sooo excited!! However, I'm not sure if it would exactly work well because the story itself takes place in WDW's Magic Kingdom. And having a ride in the Magic Kingdom-about the Magic Kingdom just doesn't seem to work well.

As for Ursula, the storyline will be mainly similar to Broadway's adaption. (If you've ever seen it, Triton and Ursula are siblings and Poseidon, their father dies, giving Ursula a Nautlius shell and Triton the triedent. So, the ride will pick up at the point where Triton and Ursula rule over separate parts of the sea. When you reach Ursula's part, she starts to use her powers in bad ways. It all leads up to King Triton overthowing Ursula and claiming all of the sea as his own. At that point, it all leads up to the beginning of the original Mermaid movie.

Any othe questions, just ask.

kingdom keepers sounds like a cool sequel... can you explain more about it, and what is the idea? (not the ride that you plan... the real sequel).

about what you said with DCA it is true, but with it comes the fact that DCA is indeed not as succesfull as the other parks. and i think that this is because of things like "paradise pier" witch is noting but an amusement park.
people come to disney not for big thrills or fun rides, for that they go to six flags. people come to disney to see imagineering in its peak, a ride that is also a story and an adventure.
so there is no wrong with putting nemo and crash talk in a villain park, it just doesnt feet in (in my opinion, i may be wrong).
anyway there is also no problem to do a villain themed ride that suits little kids.

Sleepy Hollow-

I'm gonna start with this area from the entance by the castle. As soon as you enter, you'll find yourself in a 16th century colonial era. The buildings are all still intact, but by the looks of things, no one's lives here in ages. I wonder why? To your left you'll find Sleepy Holllow Confectionary, which is located next to Grimhilde's Candy Apple Shoppe. Across the way, you'll find The Legend of the Headless Horseman, a dark/thrill ride where guests enter carriages (they move in a similar style to DAK's Dinosaur). Guests are taking a leisurely tour of Sleepy Hommow, until they run into the urban legend himself, and are speedily race through the nighttime streets, trying to escape.

Close to the entrance of the land, one can board the Corpse Carriage, a horse-ride that leads guests around the Sleepy Hollow area. Continuing down the street, you'll find the Ye Olde Candle Shop and the Colonial Harbour Inn restaraunt. The street empties out into a circular courtyard, surrounded by the rest of the village. (The surrounded village is on a hill and as the hill gets higher, the buildings het smaller, making the village seem larger than it is.) To your left, you'll find the entrance to the Lagoon Abyss. To your right, you'll find the entrance to Halloweentown.

In the center, you'll find Malifacent's Spinning Wheel, a wooden ferris wheel, that stands in the direct center of the circular courtyard. To the north east side of the wheel, you'll find Lady Tremaine's Tower, a wlkthrough tour that retells the story of Cinderella, is a similar style tour like Sleeping Beauty in DL's castle.

To the left of the attraction, you'll find the Ghost Train. After boarding the Ghost Train, you take off into the midst of the woods. Suddenly, you are forced into a smoke vortex. After the smoke clears, you find yourself at the entrance to Spirit World. You have to take the train to get to this land because it is built further awat from the park (Like Rafiki's Planet Watch at DAK.) You exit the train and walk through the iron gates of Spirit World.

 

[KingMickey]

kingdom keepers sounds like a cool sequel... can you explain more about it, and what is the idea? (not the ride that you plan... the real sequel).

Well, Kingdom Keepers is about a group of kids that are brought into the Magic Kingdom park at night, through their dreams. While there, they realize there's a much bigger problem going on. There's a group called the Overtakers that are trying to take control, Malifacent being one of them. So it's up to the kids to stop them. The sequel takes place in Animal Kingdom, I think. I don't know much about it. I know it's supposed to tie up some of the cliffhangers left in the previous book.

And I hand't planned on doing a ride for the book. I was thinking of doing a Kingdom Hearts ride instead.

 

[romanarms]

oooo... spirit world... this sounds like an awesome land!!! i wonder witch villains lives there

 

[KingMickey]

Spirit World-

After passing through the gates, you'll find yourself in a supernatural portal that has taken you into the world where spirits roam freely. All of the cast members here put on a show, considering they all have "death" make-up on and they're costumes are raggidy and look aged. And the coolest part is that they wear heelies! Smoke flows across the floor of this land, giving the cast memerbs a look as if they are gliding.

All of the buildings are in dark blues and greens, giving an unearthy feeling. High pine trees surround the rim of the buildings. In the circular courtyard, you'll find Happy Hauntings, Ghostly Gatherings and the Remiem Bell gift shops. You might also wamt to get a bite to eat at the Crypt Keeper Cafe.

At the back end of the courtyard, you'll find the land's three attractions, each one being separated by a crypt wall, with humorous engravings carved in. The first ride on your left is the Black Cauldron, an audio-animatronic show, where guests enter a circular theater and the action takes place on a circular stage in the direct center. The show features smoke, projections, pyro, and a large AA of the Horned King!

In the center attraction, you enter a mausoleum and sit down for a showing of Lonesome Ghosts, a 3-D show based off of the classic Halloween Disney cartoon. The interior of the theater actoually looks like the inside of a crypt, emphasising the theming of the attraction.

To the right, lies Scaredy Cat!, a live stage show where Donald Duck decides to throw a sleepover party and invites all his friends. Donald decides to play pranks on them the entire night. However, later on that night, Donald's the one getting pranked!

You enter back onto the train and arrive back in Sleepy Hollow. You head to your left, and pass a l pumpkin-headed scarecrow. You read a black metal banner that reads Halloweentown.

 

[KingMickey]

Halloweentown-

As you enter the area, you come across a close-to-exact replica of the town square from the movie, Guillotine Square. Some recognizable features are the fountain that oozes green slime, Jack Skellington's house, and Town Hall. Around the permimeter of Guillotine Square, you'll find the Witches' Shop, as well as Potions, Gore, and More, and Halloweentown Hideaways. The restaraunts in this area are Dr. Finklestein's Lab, a restaraunt themed to his laboratory, and Mr. Hyde's Halloween Hinders.

At schedules times of the day, The Witching Hour, a show about the witches of Halloweentown. The show takes place in the courtyard, in front of the fountain. Leading up the stairs to Jack Skellington's house, you'll come across the entrance to Jack Skellington's Halloween Hype, a 3-D show where Jack tests out some of his latest holiday "inventions" for next year's Halloween. But, he's testing them out on the guests!

Along a pathway into the woods, you'll find the entrance into a sub-land.

The Hinterlands- A forest made out of thin, brown, bare trees. The area itself is not huge, but it was built to give off a endless, maze-like quality. There are maps placed around to help point guests in the right direction. In the forest, you'll find The Nightmare Before Christmas, a dark ride where guests board flying sleigh coffins and glide through this chillfully delightful tale. (More on this later!) Guests can also find Spiral Hill, an interactive area where guests can climb the swirling hill, find secret caverns, and explore mysterious wells. Oogie Boogie's Manor lies in the distance.

Hemlock Homestead- The area of Halloweentown in which Oogie Boogie resides. It stretches all the way from Oogie's manor, past Vampire Valley, to Behemoth's Briars Pumpkin Patch. Guests can only explore Oogie Boogie's manor, but they can still gaze at the sight of the other two areas. They might want to stop and look at the swirling bats in the Vampire Valley or guests can pick their own pumpkins at the Pumpkin Patch. Remember to stop by Behemoth's Beverages and Lock, Shock and Barrel's Candy Cart to get a snack.

Finally, you make your way up to Oogie's Manor. Inside, you'll find Oogie's House of Trix. A ride-thru fun house, where guests are put up to match Oogie Boogie. He sets off traps,a s the guests progress further through his mansion. Oogie Boogie is a BIG gambler, and it just so happens that h'ss gambling with your life! At the exit of the ride, you'll find Oogie's Royal Casino, a gift shop.

 

[KingMickey]

The Dark Forest-

Back in Villain's Vale, the central hub, off to the right of the castle, you'll find yourself walking into the depths of the forest. The forest is made out of tall, dark trees that stretch high into the sky. In some of the hallowed out holes in the trees, a hologram of scary eyes appear to scare unsuspecting guests! The forest was built to disorient, so you might want to use a map to help get through this area.

Through a cluster of trees, you'll find Forest Frights, a mild thrill coaster that takes guests on a hair-raising trip through the forest. It is similar to the style of Big Thunder Mountain, but features more intense scenes and steeper drops. There are no actual villains in this ride, but you might spot plenty of bats, snakes, and alligators. Throught the forest and around the perimeter, you'll find the Dark Waters, boat ride attraction. The attraction takes you along the rivers of the Dark Forest.

In the furthest reaches of the dark forest, you'll find a secret abandoned castle. Perhaps, a villain's secret hideout? Inside the castle, lies the Mystery Castle Tour, a guided tour gone wrong, as the villains reveal secret passageways and forbidden corridors, in an attempt to lure guests into their evil clutches. Of course, good always prevails.

Taking a left out of the Dark Forest, you'll find yourself start reaching a rocky setting. Various mountains spring out from the earth. Ahead you see a large, dark castle in the distance. A particular "dark" mountain seems to be larger and reign over the entie land. You've reached the Forbidden Mountains.

 

[MaterA113]

I really like your ideas so far. Great Job. I like the way you are blending villians and spooky/scary attractions.

Can't wait to see the Forbidden Mountains.

 

[KingMickey]

Thanks Mater!

Forbidden Mountains-

After pssing out of the tree-infested area, you'll find yourself stepping into the Forbidden Mountains, a series of high-peaked Mountains. You might want to stop by the Cliffhanger Cafe, to get something to eat. Or you might want to check out the Cliffside Capers or the Mountaintop Merchandise gift shop. All of the shops and the restaraunt are found inside mountain caves and windows, sticking to the theming of the area.

Straight ahead, you'll find the entrance into The Sandlands. But for now, there's still more to see in the Forbidden Mountains.

Off to the right, you'll find Malifacent's Forbidden Tower, the biggest thrill ride in the park. Guests find themselves walking up the mountain to her castle, crossing the drawbridge and entering the doors. Guests board the coaster, in the shape of chariots, and are sped off, into the depths of the castle. After a little exploring, Malifacent becomes known to your presence, forcing the guests to escape the tower. The ride reaches speeds of 80 mph and finishes in a huge 80 foot drop!

In between the pathway to the Sandlands and Malifacent's Tower, you'll find the tallest attraction in the entire resort. Standing 196 feet, it's hard to miss Chernabog's Fury, a roller coaster ride through Bald Mountain. The guests take a trip through Chernabog's fiery home, as ghosts and ghouls are summoned by Chernabog, to stop you at all costs. Flames and pyrotecnics are a norm for this ride. The coolest thing about the attraction is that there is a huge Chernabog Audio-animatronic atop the mountain. The demon actually moves and gestures down towards the guests. Chernabog's wings can actually expand and then close in, sheltering himself at the top of the mountain. He can also be lowered down into the top of the mountain, for technical reasons.

A pathway leading around Bald Mountain, will take you to the Fantasmic! arena. The show plays everyday of the week at 9 p.m. The show also plays on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 10:30p.m. (More on this later, regarding scenes and what not.)

Now, let's take the pathway into The Sandlands.

 

[romanarms]

cool Chernabog ride!!! i had the excact same idea of an AA Chernabog for one of my parks!! (though for a different type of ride).
tell me this: is he going to take part of Fantasmic!?

 

[KingMickey]

Thank you! Yes, he will be a part of Fantasmic!. I had orginially put it in the Studios, but after thinking it through, it would work much better in Villain's Vale, especially with the entire Chernabog AA and the mountain.

 

[JEANYLASER]

King Mickey-I have great idea what about Fantasmic Ride!

 

[KingMickey]

King Mickey-I have great idea what about Fantasmic Ride!

I like the overall idea for a ride version of Fantasmic!, but in this park it would work much better as a show. The Forbidden Mountains area fits the scenery of the Fantasmic stage set, especially with Bald Mountain close by. Anyway, my Villain's Revenge ride is very similar to Fantasmic!, so I don't see the need for two rides so similar.

 

[JEANYLASER]

King Mickey-I meant to say Fantasmic show!

 

[KingMickey]

King Mickey-I meant to say Fantasmic show!

Yeah, I had already planned a Fantasmic! show, I'll describe it in the entertainment section.

The Sandlands-

You leave the cliffs area and enter into a desert oasis area. There are tall palm trees and rough sand dunes built into the floor of the area. As you enter, you'll find yourself in the Desert Oasis Marketplace, a large series of outdoor shopping stands. Instead of having idividual shops, the land uses a flea-market like atmosphere. You can find exclusive jewelry and antiques hand-made from Morocco. You can also stop by the Sands of Time restaraunt for a bite to eat.

After exiting the oasis you'll find yourself at a three-forked crossroads. Filled inbetween the paths are lush tropical trees and beautiful oasis landscapes. The pathway to your right takes you to the King Cobra, a indoor/outdoor fast-paced roller coaster ride that takes guests into the depths of an ancient temple, as a rampant Jafar, disguised in his snake form, chases after the guests in this exciting thrill adventure. Beware: lots of snakes!

Pharoah's Pyramid-

Down the middle road, you'll find an ancient Egyptian Pyramid. The edges have been chipped away and details have faded, due to it's long existance. After entering the pyramid, you'll find two of the lands attractions. The first, Arachnid, a dark ride that takes you on a trip through the secret ruins of the pyramid. Guests are attacked by the unexpected creatues. The finale includes a huge 30 foot arachnid lunging towards the guests!

The other attraction is The Pharoah's Tomb. Using the same vehicle design as Dinosaur! and Indiana Jones, guests embark on a mission into the catacombs of the pyramid, where they reach the resting place of Osiris, an Egyptian pharoah. The spirit of the pharoah is disturbed by the sudden presence and is unleashed out of his tomb. The guests go on a bumpy, death-defying ride to escape out of the spirit-infested catacombs. At the exit of the attraction, you'll find the gift shop, Catacomb Catastrophe.

Back outside in the oasis, the left path will take you to the final land of the park, Industrial City.

 

[KingMickey]

Industrial City-

You enter under a metal archway that's tangled and twisted. You arrive into a dusty, urban city. It honestly looks like a junk yard. No, it actually looks worse than a junk yard. The buildings are deteriorating, there are loose electrical wires, spouting shocking currents of electricity, there's even a few crashed cars bent out of shape, spewing smoke at the base of some buildings.

As you enter, to your right you'll find two shops, Industrial Increments and Trashy Treasures. On your left, you'll find the City Cabinet Cafe. You move foward a little more. On your right, you'll now find The Experiment, a gravitron-styled ride, where a mad scientist invites guests to try out his latest invention, of course, all goes wrong and the experiment looses control. The guests are in for a wild ride! To your left, you'll find a pathway that connects to the Hemlock Homestead section of Halloweentown.

On occasion, you might find a Interactive Wall-E roaming the area of the Industrial City. (I thought he would fit in this area because the story takes place in an apocolyptic future setting...where there's trash everywhere.) Wall-E is capable of taking pictures and even signing autographs!

On the back end of Industrial City, you'll find the last two attractions. The Incredible Adventure, a mild thrill ride where guests enter orb like vehicles and follow the Incredibles on a top secret mission to a mysterious island. Follows much of the storyline from the movie. It was inspired from the original idea of an Incredibles ride. The last ride you'll find is Cruella DeVil's Car Chase, a ride similar to Test Track. Guests board cars and fly down the streets of Industrial City. Suddenly, Cruella appears and it seems she has a taste for road rage. She goes on a high speed chase after you dodging street corners and cars, well...sometimes.

Chernabog no longer stands at the top of the mountain. In the Dark Forest, fiber optics imbedded in the trees add a glistening, fanciful effect to the area. The area is no longer dark and foreboding, as it once used to be. Finally, on Villain's Vale, the once Dark Castle, is now glistening in a midst of twinkling fiber optic lights and projected magic.
