What would you like to see added, restored, changed in the parks and WDW in general?

I, too, wish for the original Journey into Imagination to come back, but that seems like an impossible dream. But, hey, they did bring the original Tiki Room back after Under New Management! (albeit edited for time) At least, the next time they redo the Imagination pavilion ride (as I'm sure they will!), they should bring back Dreamfinder as well as Figment in the new ride. It makes me mad that Eric Idle's character thinks he is the one who dreamed up Figment when we all know it was Dreamfinder! (I'm not a Monty Python fan, but I did like Eric Idle's guest role in The Simpsons. I don't want it to sound like I'm bashing Eric Idle!)

I think I am in the minority here, but I wish they would get rid of Joffrey's Coffee. It has a very Starbucks taste to me (which always has seemed way too strong, even Starbucks Blonde.) I drank a couple cups of Joffrey's everyday since it was the available coffee, but I wish Disney would hook up with Dunkin' Donuts as their coffee vendor!

Swan Boats? Wow. I don't remember these at all, where were they located?

I never got to ride them either. If you look to the right of the castle and across the green space you will see a green top covered pavilion, this served as the dock. The boats ran from there along the waterways. They ran from 73 - 83. They were removed because of the cost to run and repair them and other issues with problems operating them.

Main Street electrical parade... I got to see it in 2012 but something at night please! Oh and my biggest want is dream finder! Doesn't have to be the classic dream finder but bring back the wonder and imagination to imagination. Also because I've become slightly obsessed with Martin's videos, and missed it with my first trip in 2001 as construction had started for mission space, but horizons!

People have said that before, that it cost a lot to operate them and that it wasn't feasible. Why not I wonder? Surely there wouldn't need to be much staff to run that attraction. It is just another unique attraction they could have. How often can you say you rode a boat in a moat around a castle?

1. The Haunted Mansion's awful new queue should be torn down and the original walkway restored. The new stuff in the queue could be re-purposed into a Haunted Mansion restaurant ;). AND BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL HITCHHIKING GHOSTS EFFECT. The new one is a lame blurry CGI cartoon that isn't remotely convincing. Also - do something so that the ride isn't stopped every 2 minutes to accommodate people on scooters. The stopping/starting ruins the ride FOR EVERYONE.

2. Journey Into Imagination should be rebuilt and include Figment AND Dreamfinder.

3. Tower of Terror plussed, maintained properly, and maybe a restaurant added.

4. Yes, bring back Spectromagic!

5. I think the Frozen ride in Norway, while ridiculous in context, was surprisingly well done. So why not add a second ride that's ACTUALLY ABOUT NORWAY? Bring back Maelstrom.

6. I never got to experience The Adventurer's Club, but I've seen videos and it was awesome. Revive it and put it in Adventureland someplace.

7. Bring back the Animation Courtyard and ditch the Star Wars garbage. The last film proved that the franchise is running on nostalgia fumes, plus I heard it sucked (of course I didn't see it. Han Solo, Luke and Leia are all effectively dead, so screw Star Wars IMO).

8. Get rid of the puppet show in Liberty Square. If TDO has to keep it, put it in Playhouse Disney for the toddlers.

9. I agree on keeping the Magic Kingdom open longer at night. It's so awesome when it's lit up.

10. Fix the Mermaid ride so that it doesn't look so cheap and hokey.

11. UPDATE PETER PAN'S FLIGHT.

12. FIX THE YETI.

Before they fix the yeti they would rather change the name of the ride so the yeti is no longer an issue.

Bring Imagination back to original Figment Dreamfinder version. SSE back to Jeremy Irons.

As far as everything else, they should just open up a new theme park with all the rides that they closed.

In no particular order:
1 - Get rid of Tomorrowland Speedway in lieu of an E-ticket dark ride
2 - EVERY SINGLE unused empty space in Epcot pavilions should be re-imagined and used including WOL (special events does NOT count)
3 - Show SSE some love with a tip to tails refurb and bring back an entertaining descent
4 - Randomization or expansion via user input being more than a placebo in MS
5 - Make Innoventions East and West something more of an attraction again
6 - Fix the Yeti
7 - Make at least part of DHS about actually being a studio or simply change the name
8 - Ditch FP for Peter Pan
9 - Give whatever Imagineer was responsible for Lumiere at Enchanted Tales with Belle a golden ticket to do whatever project they want to tackle...seriously folks, if you have not seen this show element you really need to!
10 - Expand Cali River Rapids to make it have more story continuity and make it worth the insane stand by wait times
11 - Change up the Indiana Jones stunt show...it is a great show but c'mon 20 years of the same show?
12 - Get rid of special events -OR- have reduced ticket prices for those who already paid full price to be in the park for the day
13 - Epcot graveyard...time to move past this and relocate these.
14 - Fountain of Nations, bring back to a consistent quality show (those who have seen it at full show quality understand)
15 - Millennium Village...again, sorry but "special events" does not cut it with this much unused real estate. This thing looms over World Showcase like a creepy Wal Mart greeter...

That's about what I can muster before 7AM on a Tuesday morning. None of it is horribly huge and most of it has been said here before. I guess the list reflects my love for Epcot (EPCOT) and my most fond memories of the mid 90's being there.
