Revive the Country Bear Jamboree, for no other reason than to rectify the thematic coherency for Critter Country in terms of sight, sounds and music that Winnie the Pooh broke nearly two decades ago. The Country Bears are already established intellectual property with a built in audience, even if it may only be perceived at a niche level. And it would be also be an excuse to not only place Pooh in Fantasyland where he belongs but give him a better executed attraction.
As for the medium for the Country Bears attraction, perhaps a darkride, for broader guest accessibility, with a substantial portion of physical sets, mixed practical and digital effects and an assortment of audio animatronics. However, as a personal preference, I'd be receptive for a revised family coaster a la Magic Kingdom's Seven Dwarfs Mine Train with elements from Big Grizzly Mountain Runaway Mine Cars from Hong Kong. It would be wonderful to expand the geography of a Dixieland South with antebellum hilltops, lush flora and kinetic water ways.
