These days, people often believe Disney has no wishes or magic left in its library, which is surprisingly not true. Wishes still happen, but these days the Star has been replaced by… a monkey’s paw, and now this monkey’s paw is in your control. Instead of no longer granting wondrous wishes, instead they’re granted, but in horrible ways that mar any benefits, which perhaps even worse. That, my friend, is exactly what YOU will be doing here; granting theme park fans wishes, but in the worst ways you can (realistically) think of. However, the monkey’s paw is feeling… merciful this time, and gives you strict rules, preventing the true mayhem it can unleash, beckoning you to read them.
1. You cannot just say “nothing changes” or “it stays the same” or something like that. An answer must be contributed, no matter how bad the original attraction is. “It’s turned back into a parking lot” is not valid unless it is the prompt (wink wink, nod nod), and reverting it to a past version that was even worse than today must be done somewhat creatively.
2. Be realistic. No apocalyptic scenarios that go past the parks themselves, even realistic apocalypses as opposed to aliens, zombies, alien zombies, etc. Budgets can be within any ballpark, but be sure to use a variety of budgets, whatever suits the project at hand in your mind’s eye.
3. Submissions must be 2-10 sentences long, and may include images and/or music. This is to keep things manageable.
4. The prompts will last for a week each. Possibly, the deadline will begin after the second entry is posted.
5. Make ‘em suck in some form. Be it in a dozen small ways or one very big one, preferably both.
6. You can submit an entry to a prompt that you had previously missed.
Without further ado, my first prompt is:
Convert any cloned attraction back into a version of whatever the original attraction was before it was rethemed (such as converting the ODL version of Runaway Railway into The Great Movie Ride, the DHS version of Star Tours into Adventure Thru Inner Space, the ODL version of Astro Blasters into Dreamflight ), but you cannot convert the original version back to what it was.
