Not too movie themed, but do some type of stunt show, and find a way to keep the sound effects in the dark gimmick, by working in their newly acquired Marvel character Daredevil. The character's blind so maybe we could experience what he experiences during a fight.

They can't use the Marvel characters in WDW.

From the Orlando Sentinal:

The Walt Disney Co. is unlikely to deploy popular Marvel characters to Walt Disney World, a top executive suggested this afternoon, despite Disney's plan to buy the comic-book company for $4 billion.

Walt Disney Co. Chief Financial Officer Tom Staggs told analysts that Disney will focus instead on using Marvel properties in its other theme parks, because of a pre-existing licensing deal between Marvel and Universal Orlando giving Universal exclusive use of some of Marvel's best-known characters --including Spider-Man, The Incredible Hulk, X-Men and the Fantastic Four -- in theme parks east of the Mississippi River.

Universal also has contractual rights to Spider-Man for theme parks in Japan.

"As we get outside of Orlando -- and Spider-Man in Japan -- we have an opportunity in theme parks and, over time, we'll explore just how best to take advantage of that," Staggs said in response to a question at a Bank of America media, telecommunications and entertainment conference in Marina del Ray, Calif.

Staggs brushed aside another question about whether adding a character such as Spider-Man at Disneyland while it is featured at a Universal theme park in Orlando could create brand confusion. "People tend to space their visits out," he said.

Disney's No. 2 executive also said late summer and early fall bookings at Disney World and Disneyland have continued to lag behind last year's pace -- but have not deteriorated any further.

Staggs said the pace of theme-park bookings during Disney's fiscal fourth quarter has "remained relatively consistent with what we were seeing" in late July, when Disney said bookings at its domestic resorts were running about 7 percent behind a comparable period during last year's fourth quarter.

"The trend in parks has been relatively stable," he said.

He said Disney has not seen any backlash from consumers over recent ticket price increases. The company in August raised admission prices at Disney World between 2.6 percent and 5.3 percent, depending on the length of the package.

"I think the market has and will take the price increase in stride," Staggs said.

Marvel's best known characters are Spiderman, X-Men, Hulk, Doom, ect.

They can still use Marvel characters in WDW that aren't in IOA. That article just prooves my point.

If you read what it says, it says that they will focus on using the Marvel characters at other disney theme parks not located in WDW because of the pre-existing contract with Universal. I am almost certain that there is something about Disney can't use ANY Marvel characters at WDW until the contract with Marvel is up. They can use them everywhere else, not at WDW though.

I would like to see something interactive. Whether that be a sound show, special effects show or maybe something themed to Disney Channel. Even something based around Club Penguin. Animagique from DLP would be cool.

I think a George Lucas hosted THX Sound Show would be awesome, although I do love the Who's Line Is It Anyway Live idea. It's at least 10 years late, but I'd still love to see it happen. Best...show...ever!

Correct Answer: Doug Live was a ridiculously awesome show for what it was.

That's on the Life Test, and I gave you the answer. How lucky you are!
