15 changes I would make to the WDW resort

One thing I would do is incorporate the Power Rangers into more then just a meet n greet at MGM. I thought they could revise the stunt show and make it a Power Rangers Show w/ all the stunt special effects! My son loves the PRs and so do tons of other kids! That could be a big draw for MGM.

Another cool item to add to MGM would be The Transformers. I think this movie and its sequals are going to be big for Hasbro. I know Disney has nothing to do w/ Transformers. But Disney had nothing to do w/ the Star Wars series either????? Disney signing a deal w/ Hasbro and adding Transformers to MGM could provide more competition for Harry Potter at IOA.

wow, its amazing I never thought of a Transformers ride but that would be mind-blowing if done right!!
 
All great ideas!

I think one that was missed might be an expansion of th monorail. If not a monorail, perhaps a smaller type of light rail trains.

Reminded me of something Disney was looking at that I would have LOVED to see. When I was in college, some folks from Disney were at my university (West Virginia University) studying our PRT (Personal Rapid Transit) - they were considering it for WDW to replace bus service. It would have been like little mini-monorails (think enclosed TTA) getting you all around the property!

Yes, something like this would work very well:

9. Here are my thoughts on that subject as well

10. OK

11. OK

12. Make them themed from the Cars movie with the entrance in Toontown

13. Good idea

14. I say Stormrider from Tokyo DisneySea

I like the idea of THX sound effects replacing Sounds Dangerous!

Also, #15, one meal a day is all I ask!!
 
12. Make the Indy Speedway cars electric and give them engine sounds in the car's audio system instead of real lawn mower engine sounds

YES! That would be fantastic. The sound - and the smell - of those cars is awful!
 
Simple changes...because we could all come up with radical ones. These are in no specific order:

1. Replace Stitch's Great Escape with um, anything at this point

2. Update Space Mountain with as much as possible from DL's version

3. Seek out more innovative companes for the Innoventions pavilion, it just isnt very good right now

4. Add a new country and ride to the World Showcase (for once in 20 years)

5. Replace Dino-Rama at AK with some real Dinosaur exhibits and add the old rumred excavation coaster (could make it similar to the Indy coaster at DLP or TDS)

6. Add a flume ride to AK, Kali river rapids isn't enough. There's a lot of themes possible for it

7. Put in a new Indiana Jones ride at MGM based on the era of Indy 4

8. Move the "One Man's Dream" exhibit from the back corner of MGM and put it where it belongs, on Main St. USA

9. Beg, Bargain, Plea do whatever to get George Lucas to make a much bigger Star Wars presence at MGM, the possibilities are endless

10. Update the Soarin' film, or make one for each theater, so each experience is different. Also, make the new film DIGITAL, would improve the look of it as the existing film is already showing some age.

11. Promise to never EVER put a show like High School Musical in the middle of TOMORROWLAND again!!!

12. Make the Indy Speedway cars electric and give them engine sounds in the car's audio system instead of real lawn mower engine sounds

13. Put an eatery in the old Fantasyland Skyway station, its a beautiful but nearly useless stroller parking area now, but it could be used for much more.

14. Put a new attraction in the Wonders of Life pavilion instead of making it a convention hall

15. Give Restaurant Akershus (at Norway) at least one meal without being all Princesses

1- I've heard the complaints but never ridden it myself so I can't agree yet.

2- There's a lot of talk that this will happen sometime next year!

3- I agree but we'll see how SE turns out too.

4- The possibilities for this are so vast. We've been waiting far too long for this.

5- It would be nice too see more innovative ideas like this for this part of AK, it sure needs it.

6- AK needs a flume ride just as much as Epcot & MGM will benefit from one. I like the Brother Bear idea in the Canada Pavillion.

7- I think they'll wait to see how well it does, however, an Indy "ride" is most welcome.

8- This has always belonged at MK.

9- I agree endlessly but this would make too much sence, so naturally, they won't do it.

10- WOW already? Haven't seen it yet & I wasn't aware of this either.

11- Yep!

12- If it helps our planet then I'm all for it.

13- Sure, the space is there, why not use it right?

14- When I found this out I punched a hole in my wall! Why the HECK would they not keep this pavillion!?! If it's old, update it, if it's not popular, then put in a new ride, but don't use it as office space!!!!!!!! Thinking about it makes me want to hit the bags again, where's my Rocky music???

15- Make it a few meals.

All in all, these are all great ideas. We could all come up with great ideas. The problem is, will great ideas ever see the light of day at WDW again? Only time will tell I guess, I for one, am tired of waiting.

Fellow Mountaineer here!

I'd love to see a PRT cram with the characters. :goodvibes
 
Here are my ideas to improve WDW.....

1) Build a Horizons II ride at Epcot. Removing World of Motion and Horizons was a big mistake. We need some more kewl dark rides.

2) Add more "miniature" scenes (like the city of the future display) to the People Mover ride. There is so much unused space. Add a detailed display that will wow the people riding the People Mover ride.

3) Build the "Journey To The Center Of The Earth" ride at WDW. That is a true Disney magic ride. It combines a great dark ride with a rollercoaster thrill ride.

4) Remove Test Track and Mission Space. Just not the right Disney ride for the entire family. Remember Walt built Disneyland for the entire family to ride together.

5) Go back to the original Imagination ride with Dreamfinder at Epcot. Disney should have kept that one alone.

I'm sure I'll have more but this is a start. :banana: :banana: :banana:
 
1.) Would love to Have a Villians section in the Magic Kingdom

2.) Get rid of all Mcdonalds on Property

3.) Add a Pirates themed Hotel

4.) Add Ireland to World Showcase

5.) Give Disney World it's own Airport so you "arrive right in the heart of the magic"

6.) Add alot to the Animal Kingdom because it's boring

7.) Add a lil more to MGM to spice it up

8.) Have a Nightmare before Christmas themed ride

9.) Move Carrousel of Progress to Epcot

10.) Add a little Mermaid themed ride

11.) Expand the monorail

12.) Add another waterpark

13.) Get rid of Disney quest

14.)bring back Horizons because it rocked

15.)Update Star Tours
 
All great ideas!

I think one that was missed might be an expansion of th monorail. If not a monorail, perhaps a smaller type of light rail trains.

I especially like the idea of adding another country and ride to Epcot/World Showcase. Although, I think they could actually add at least two other attractions.

A veteran bus driver told me the monorail is too expensive to expand it will never happen buses are more effective she said i don't agree but thats the way disney higher ups think

That's the same argument basically used against expanding light and heavy rapid transit rail systems in cities around the U.S.

The fact is that buses ARE more flexible. You can easily increase the number of buses on busier routes. When one breaks down the whole line doesn't have issues. Yada yada yada.

Don't get me wrong - I'm a railfan and love the monorail for its uniqueness, and wish peoplemovers actually got beyond the theme park stage. But unless it becomes far too expensive to run buses, it isn't likely that there will be any further expansions on one or two rails. Especially with WDW becoming more decentralized anyways.
 
First thing I would have to do is get rid of Sounds Dangerous!!! Our family did not enjoy this one at all! The new Narnia 'show' also needs to go! Make it more less commercial for the new movie, and more of a ride or actual show.

This was a fun experience for us only because at least half of why we enjoy disney is watching all the odd people. They must have told us no less than 20 times that it would be dark and weird and STILL people freaked out when they turned the lights off. What kind of lunatics subject themselves to things like this if they know they're not going to be able to handle it.

I still think Personal Rapid Transport would work fine at the Disney parks, all of the benefits of a monorail and a bus
 
I find these two comments incongruent.

Unless one lacks imagination and a creative festive soul, Animal Kingdom is NOT boring. It is easily the most beautiful of the parks. The safari, Kali Rapids, Dinosaur and Expedition Everest are wonderful rides and Festival of the lion king is the second best show on property (after Fantasmic). Could it use more rides... sure. But to say its boring is just ridiculous.
