love this idea.. especially the half heros half villans idea someone mentioned.. and have some kind of a show where one side wins each night, but not tell people whos going to win do it randomly..
Id like to see a fantasyland type expansion featuring the villains... as much as I love the villains I dont think a whole park wod work. An elaborate land would vlbe cool - that said id want it to have a bit more substance than NFE!
i'd love to see villans, but to justify a whole park would be a stretch.. and may alienete those that would wish to partake in parts of it but may have kids so not able to take part in all of it.
if done as a land of fantasy land, i've got an idea..
in my other dreaming thread i showed building fantasy land back further, though this could now become villans land.
it was brought to my attention that this is the fireworks area, causing the necessity to close any attractions early.. but this could be negated by building the whole thing indoors. do the walkways like a big indoor space, themed of course.. this would also enable the area to be "darker" than being fully outside in the sun during the daytime.
i re did part of my drawing roughly, allowing a safety lake in case of a super serious explosion or something.. and then do a green roof with a sprinker system.. and plan to water the plants during the fireworks shows.. and then no fire!!
I think it would be great, but I agree not as a whole park. That would be a pretty huge gamble for Disney. You have to figure you're losing a significant amount of visitors to this park, as it would only be good for families with older children, teenagers, or adults on their own. So much of their money comes from families with small children (and yes I KNOW that is a huge problem/issue for a lot of people on here), they'd be losing a ton on food and merch in that park. A section of Fantasyland? Absolutely! But not a whole park.
a whole park would be stretching it i believe. and your totally correct about the risk factor for opening a completely new gate that possibly wouldn't appeal to all.
Just throwing some ideas out here..... Villain park wise...
You could do something along the lines of the size of a WDW Typhoon Lagoon (or a bit bigger) meets a Downtown disney like shopping atmosphere....Sort of a twist on the rumored Night Kingdom meets Villains Park meets Pleasure Island...Open from afternoon to late at night. It wouldn't necessarily be a full 5th gate. It'd be a must for adults and teens, but not a 'have to' type experience for the kids or the family. Plus, a Villain's park would be a cooler place to explore at night...
Or... on the other hand...You could do a full park...Not just only a villains park... you could totally go mixing two parks together...and make a Hero side and a Villain side.... Let the guests choose their adventure for the day.... Amazing show/fireworks at the end of the day... Clash of good and bad...
not a bad idea to do a smaller park.. i know thats what the orginal night kingdom plan was.. to do a smaller more personalized experience similar to discovery cove at seaworld
i'm not sure how villan like the park would be though if t was still outside, as in the summer its still light out till 8.9 at night. thus my idea to do it completely / mostly indoors.
please dont have the focus be on SHOPPING!!!
I think it could still be a 5th gate but more in the style of Epcot and it's variety of experiences that Magic Kingdom's more traditional theme park atmosphere.
Yeah! And a different side wins each night with a different ending show... so you'll have to see it more than once!
i like the heros villans idea.. and not have people know whos going to win..
But MK needs capacity. Replacing one ride with another doesn't do much. Replacing a show with a ride does though.
this would definitely be a way to add much needed capacity. so many awesome ride ideas.
