Star Wars land is something I know you have been waiting for and in my little world it is there. You will come across three different worlds of the Star Wars universe. These are Endor, Tattoine and Coroucant. (Most of these names are not spelled the correct way and I apologize) Now lets start to the main entrance to Star Wars land. You are heading in the direction of Indiana Jones and notice that the show is no longer. In fact the prime time café barley escaped the new land. Everything on the side of the lake that faces Star Tours now belongs to the Star Wars universe. So you will see a major difference as the lake on one side is actually a forest. Planters have been placed all over the place along with giant trees from the movie. The entrance to the Indiana Jones show is not the entrance to the new major Star Wars E-ticket. The bike coaster will be a one of the kind thing for Disney and the first ride like this in the Orlando area. There will be two entrances to this ride. One side you have the queue made for the rebels. Tents are pitched up as if they have a small little base set up. You are a new recruit sent to Endor. Your first mission is going to be to check the woods for any sign of storm troopers. This entrance is to the right side of the main entrance closer to the path that takes you back to Star Tours. Now the cool thing is from the entrance to this ride you will turn around and see a lot of trees. This whole area will be forested in real good so you cant turn around and lose the illusion. Anyway the Empire side is closer to where the Prime Time is. They also have little camps set up. You are a new recruit for the empire and your job is to find places for the empire to set up base. They are trying to regain control of the planet. So you go through the queue of either one checking out the props and supplies each base has. (This is all outside including the ride) For the rebel side you approach the bikes that are rebel looking bikes. 2 bikes per row one person per bike and 8 rows of backs. You enter and then are sent to the rebel check point literally in front of you. (the harness check) They give you the all clear to enter and you move ahead to a little clearing of woods. You hear over the intercom of your bike that storm troopers have been spotted and you need to investigate. Before you do anything a storm trooper AA pops out of the bushes and fires his gun at you. Spark effects would make a blast go off near the vehicle. You are unarmed so your move is to run from this trooper and catch the rest. Your vehicle has this hover effect so you feel as if you are off the ground. Not to mention you wont see the track below you. Your bike takes off at 50 mph into the woods. You make turns and other things through the woods trying to get away from the trooper with the gun. You start to think you lost them until you see two AA troopers on their speed bikes. They literally take off and make a turn past some trees. You want to go after them so your car continues to chase them. (Your car did not slow down or stop during the encounter) You are trying to find them into all of a sudden right front of you is storm troopers on their bikes. You are about to collide until right at the last minute one group of bikes go left while the other goes right. By the sound of their screams they were just as scared. Your bike goes off and even does a little wobble effect like it is trying to regain balance. Your bike comes back around through a bend and you see the storm trooper bikes coming your way. This time instead of going head on you pass each other and dip into a tunnel. You quickly come out of the tunnel and make some more turns. Your bike moves into a clearing where you see Ewok AA’s attacking the storm trooper AA’s. (Your bike slows down here as this is the end) It looks like they have dealt with the trooper problem so you decide to head to base. Your car then pulls into the station and you unload out into the forest of Endor. The path comes out in the middle of the queue of the Empire and Rebels. Now the Empire side is pretty similar since you may have noticed it was the empire that you almost have two collisions. The Empire side has the story that you are a new recruit for the Empire. You have to go out into the woods to find a new place for a base. Your bikes are the same except with a different look to them. You take off and go through the check. Your bike stops and it turns on the hover bikes. Then you hear over the bike intercom that rebels have spotted near your position and you are to move now. You bike speeds off and you head into the forest. Making turns and going over logs trying to find a new base while avoiding detection by troops. All things are going good two rebels are standing on a hill shooting at you. Once again special blast effects! You barley miss the blast and move straight where you now see you are about to run head on with rebel bikes. Your car turns quickly to the right and you barely miss the bike. Your car then comes back around this time missing the bikes and dipping into a tunnel. Your bikes comes out and you go through a few more turns and bends trying to lose the rebels. After a couple bends you realize they are gone and your bike slows down, You come into a clearing where you see the Empire has made a new base. There is a giant walker thing at the edge of the forest moving his head and checking to see if you are clear. AA storm troopers are walking around the campsite with supplies. Your bike then enters the station and you are thanked for keeping the rebels off your trail. One note I forgot to mention about the rebel portion of the ride. There is a moment where a giant walker shoots at you. This take place after you avoid the first trooper and right before encountering the other bikers.
 
The next ride will take over the “Sounds Dangerous” building and will be a new family ride. The ride itself will be the first boat ride for this park and will be inside completely. The cool thing is special effects and great scenery will make it seem like it is outside. Now before I get to the ride let me explain the Endor part of the land. So you have passed the bike ride and are walking through the forest of Endor towards Star Tours. You see giant trees everywhere as well as some smaller ones. The concrete has been torn up at one part and a stream flows under a wooden bridge that looks like it was made by Ewoks. This stream actually runs into the bike ride. Your bike passes over it. The stream runs the other way into the “Sounds Dangerous” building. You notice that covered boats with people on them are going down the little stream. The façade of the “Sounds Dangerous” building is giant trees. You look up and notice little bridges and houses are in the trees. In fact a bridge extends over the pathway you are crossing and to the other side where more houses are in the trees. You have found the little Ewok village! So lets go visit! You enter into the queue of the boat ride and you start at the outside portion. You walk around and through different planters and pass giant trees. The inside building has been disguised so you can almost not tell the difference between outside and inside. You enter the inside portion and it still looks like the forest outside. The room is huge and you see even more villages in the trees. This time people are walking over them. (Now for the sake of safety the stairs are ramps, the siding is made of wood planks, and the trees are not that high.) You walk through and enter the village of the Ewoks. There don’t seem to be any around at the moment but they don’t care you see the village. You can admire their tools and other things they use. You exit off the ramp and come to the loading dock for your boat. Your boat looks as if it was hand carved from wood and has a little canopy over the top. This canopy would also have the ability to be removed in the case of the weather was going to be nice that day or during the dry season. The boat takes off and you start by entering a tunnel. Cool lights shine around the cave making it glow and light up. You then exit outside where you go under the bridge from earlier. You can easily see the guest walking through Endor. You then enter the forest where you see Ewoks walking around. One Ewok is panicked and is signaling to the others about trouble. Your boat passes by them and you enter further into the woods where you see two storm troopers on the bank. They spot you and tell you to halt. Before they have time to shoot you a giant wooden cage falls from the sky. The two men are trapped in and are panicking. You see the two Ewoks sitting in the trees laughing. (Or whatever they do) The boat continues to move through the forest and you even get a glimpse of the bike coaster. Your boat turns around and heads back towards the building, but this time you go under the ground instead of another river. So your boat does a small drop just like “Pirates of the Caribbean”. You then enter a underground cave which exits right into a forest. You see little Ewoks dancing and singing just like the movie. Your boat then exits and you leave the ride on a ramp that takes you back to ground level. There will be more during the ride for example before the drop you will see a scene where the Ewoks are dropping stuff and attacking more Storm Troopers. (Not the same scene from the bikes)
 
Your exit into a little hut gift shop which is made to look like the Ewoks built it. You can find cute Star Wars merch that is only related to this store. So things like shirts, pants, toys ect. Now the Backlot Express will be reused and turned into a Star Wars eatery. The theme of the quick service spot and the area around it is that the rebels have made their base here in this part of the woods. The outside portion of the eatery where the giant gas tank thing is will be removed. The where will still be outside seating for people who wish to use it. The old props and stuff will be removed and replaced with supplies and items themed to Star Wars. Both entrances can continued to be used for the restaurant. The outside of the building will be given a new look to make it look like one of the bases from the movie. So there will be satellite dishes and antennas on the top to give the building a more authentic look. One inside the main design of the building will be the same except the look will make it feel brand new. The first thing you notice is the walls have been made to look like the outside. Above each door you have things that look like blast doors. Like if there was an attack they would shut over the door. They are just for looks, but they would add to the authenticity of the room. There would be little details all over the place like pipes sticking out of the wall ect. The outfits of the cast members in the area will be rebel uniforms much like the ones the people on the rides wear. The restaurant will serve burgers, salads, chicken sandwiches fired or grilled, chicken tenders, BBQ sandwiches ect. The dining area will be almost like the mess hall for rebel soldiers. The tables will look like they are made of metal as well. Even the chairs will be given little details to match the area. Different props will be hanging on the walls like a cage cabinet that has blaster guns on display. The little cast member room will still be blocked off, but will have a door with a sign saying “Rebel Commanders Only!”
 
Next we have the one ride that stays throughout the Star Wars expansion and that is Star Tours. This ride to me is perfect as is, and since we are working in an operating theme park we cant have all rides down for long periods of time. The ride would close for a short time to change the outside queue, remove the Jedi Training stage, extend the queue to where the stage was, and add some interactive elements to the queue. First thing is the queue outside would change. Remember a lot of planters and trees have been added to the area so the place feels like a forest. The outside of the building has a few planters with smaller trees. The outside is made to look like the entrance to the main rebel base. So the entrance has a metal canopy which is made to look like a rebel check point. Fasspass will still be available for the ride as well. The queue is extended to the portion where the stage use to be as well. The building itself is given a new look from the boring sound stage that it is. It follows the example of the building next door and is given a look like it is made of metal. It wont look like just one sheet of metal, but it will have little details that makes the building looks very unique. The main reason I want to pay close attention to the detail is for two reasons. One this is Disney we are talking about and they are the master of the little details. Second the Forbidden Journey building at IOA has already bugged the crap out of me. I shouldn’t be seeing that giant building when visiting the world of Jurassic Park! Anyway this means I want the building to be decorated front, back and down the sides. It will look great no matter what angle you see it from. The ride itself will remain the same. There will be some interactive elements added to the queue that will work when Mymagic is implemented.

Now here is where it gets difficult. See the first thing is the part of the building decorated like Tattoinee would be changed to a Endor setting with trees and stuff. But see this is also where you transition from Endor to Tattoinee. ( I know it is not spelled correctly) So next we move into the Corocaunt portion of the expansion. This area is pretty small and only takes up a small alley way. You can enter into the Star Wars Land by going down the path next to the Great Movie Ride. This is where you can enter the city of Corocaunt. The back of the buildings on the left will be given facades that will look like tall city buildings. They will even light up at night as well as hive fiber optics in them. This way they glow and look very futuristic like in the movies. The ABC Commissary is changed into “Ben’s Diner” (I want to think it is called that) This will be the second large quick service location for Star Wars Land. The inside will be completely overhauled and given a new look. The giant marble pillars will come down. The two dividers that split the dining sections for the ordering section will stay, but they will be given a new look that matches the look from the movie. The Cast Members in this section will wear outfits that match diner cloths. These cloths will represent diner clothing, but will have little details that make them unique to this restaurant. Since this is a diner it will be a quick service location that you can order diner food. So be ready for big plates of food. The set up will actually work just like Be Our Guest at Magic Kingdom except that it is quick service all day. You will go up and tell the Cast Member what you want to eat. They then give you a scanner and you are given your cups. There are soda fountains so refill are endless. Guest then have their food brought out to them. The look of the diner will be pretty cool as well. On both sides the tile and carpet will come up and be replaced with tile that matches a diner. You will see the classic reds, blues and blacks seen in your typical diner. Except since this is Disney it is not going to be a normal diner. So prepare to see decorations and props that make it stand out from other diners. The TVs on the walls will stay, but will be replaced with flat screens. The TVs will play things like Corocaunt news ect. So you can watch funny clips about the things around the Star Wars universe. This will help add to the authenticity of the expansion. The display cases will be replaced with extra seating to help with capacity. The outside seating will be eliminated and the area will be used for something else. (Most likely a planter) The area on the other side of the diner use to be where you tried out for American Idol. This is now going to be turned into nothing else but a meet and greet. Famous Jedi will be stopping by to get pictures with the tourist. When walking around you will want to pay extra attention to the details that are in the land. Electronic signs above you advertise the newest products in the galaxy. You may even spot advertising for Star Tours or Pod Racing. Everything will be made to give a authentic look to the area down to the water fountains and lights. The Sc-Fi Diner will be replaced with the new Jedi Training Academy. The building is to small to make it the temple, but it will be a training outpost. There will be signs outside advertising that master Yoda himself will be leading the training. Outside a kiosk will be set up where you can sign your child up for training. Your child is then given a time he needs to return so he may participate in the certain show. Guest not watching can enter the waiting lobby 20 minutes before each show. The lobby will have the same look that the temple has in the movie. Red carpet, marble walls, ect. Guest are then led into a theater where family and friends of the kids get first two rows. Cast Members are standing aside to make sure only the family or friends can sit there. If there is room then more people are allowed on the rows. Guest then watch as the children are led on stage by Master Windu. Then an AA Yoda appears and gives the kids training lessons. He has them practice on Master Windu. Finally for the end Darth Vader or Darth Maul will appear. It will be the job of the kids to stop him. After the show kids are able to keep the coat and light saber from the show. This is all that is in the Corocaunt section of the Star Wars expansion. The final area will be the largest and will feature Tattoinee.
 

You will walk straight into Tattoinee from Endor and can enter either from Corocaunt. Tattoinee will be split into two parts. The Mos Eisley (Once again not spelled correctly) spaceport and the Tattoinee desert with the palace of Jabba the Hut. The Jabba the Hut area is where the “Streets of America” were minus the San Francisco street. Mow if you were walking down from Endor to the right would be the palace of Jabba the Hut. It would have rocks and stuff all around it. To the left you would see rocks and could probably see the buildings of the Mos Eisley space port above them a little. The desert area is where you can get pictures with Jawas, Sand Raiders or watch a stage show inside the palace. The line for the show starts right outside. The cast members wear outfits that look like they work for Jabba the Hut. Jabba the Hut has turned one of wings of the palace into a theater. This way he is able to make money of the clueless tourist who visit the planet. You enter the building and go through the insanely detailed queue. Guest can walk through the main halls of the palace before entering the throne room or waiting room. An AA Jabba the Hut is sitting on his throne next to a translator droid. The AA is pretty cool, but he is behind a curtain for most of the time. When it gets close to the show the curtain moves and you see Jabba the Hut along with his translator. He welcomes you and says he hopes you enjoy the most spectacular show ever put together in the universe. (He is speaking his language so the droid will actually do the talking) After a few minutes of talking and safety instructions the curtain lowers and hides Jabba once again. A cast member then comes and explains the safety instructions one more time. You then are brought into the theater which is themed to look like a giant palace theater. This is of course in the palace of Jabba the Hut so it isn’t the nicest. You enter the large capacity theater and are seated. After everyone is seated the lights dim and the show begins. I have no theme for the show yet except that it is going to be something about the greatness of Jabba the Hut. Something about how he has conquered and taken over many of the planets of the solar system. Many of the stories he tells will be made up and will include things like him disposing of Luke and his friends. (No violence because we cant do that at Disney right!) The show will be more comical, but will have talented dancers, performers and AA’s. Lighting, smoke and other special effects will really help set the stage for this great show. After the show the droid translator comes over an intercom and tells the people that Jabba the Hut has ordered that everyone leave immediately so he may prepare for the next show. You then exit out into the desert again.

The show isn’t the only thing you can do in this section. You can stop by the home of Luke Skywalker to get a picture with him. You can also stop by the Jawa store. The store is suppose to be their transport ship from the movie, but it is a little smaller. Guest can find different things here like shirts, toys, collectibles ect. Right outside the shop will be a small kiosk where you can buy Jawa juice( Apple juice) Bantha cakes (Cookies) and other snacks.

The next section will take over the Muppet area. This part extends to take over the San Francisco section and moves back as far as possible. (It will literally come up to and match the rockwork of the soon to be Carsland ;). If you are entering from the Endor section you may notice that you look like you are in the spaceport. To your right there is what was once the Muppet 3-D building. This is not a pod racing hanger, and is the location of the main ride. To your left “Pizza Planet” has been removed to make way for a huge Star Wars store. Yes every theme park has to have that one store, and this one happens to be here. The two stories will remain as the games are ripped out. Guest enter through the same entrance and the check-out counter is where you use to order food. Guest then enter the store where they can find ANYTHING they want. Everything on the first floor is strictly merchandise related to Star Wars. There is no generic Mickey dolls or anything on this floor. The second floor is still themed to Tattoinee BUT there is SOME generic Disney merch in here. No princess stuff or anything, but you will find things like Mickey and his friends in Star Wars outfits. Overall everything in the store will be Star Wars related, but the top floor will feature other things mixed with Star Wars.

The ride in this area takes the place of what was once Muppet Vision. It is now a pod racing hanger and that is the theme of this ride. (Now whether the building is actually big enough to fit the ride is something else entirely) The front of the building has been opened as the building looks like a storage facility. The queue starts outside where “security” makes sure you are clear to enter for the pod racing. You then enter the garage where the queue winds up and down this fairly big room. On both sides you see different pod racers with tools and other things around them. Eventually you come to the loading dock were you are loaded into your pod racer. The pod holds 2 rows of 4 people. The pod will feature tech that will make it wobble and float like the ones from the movie. You then exit the garage and enter the race track. You are lined up and to the right and left are screens with other pod racers. (This ride is like the Forbidden Journey. It uses a lot of screens with a few props.) You then take off and wind through the mountains. During the ride you also encounter falling rocks, the Rancor AA, trigger happy sandman and more. The ride ends with a happy ending of you winning the pod race yay! No gift shop here. You just exit out the back into the streets. Mama Melrose will be replaced by something everyone has wanted and that is the cantina. The cantina will be a reservation sit down restaurant. You can have specialty drinks and food in a live atmosphere. A band will perform the classic songs out of a stage while you enjoy the food and service. Don’t be surprised if the waiters seem a little rude since they are made to act that way! Next take a walkthrough of the Millennium Falcon. You can walk through a life size ship and even catch a photo with Han and Chewbacca! Finally you can visit a smaller store. This store is owned by that bug guy from the first movie. You can find unique knick Knacks here unique to this store only. So this is the Star Wars land that I dream of! How is it?
 
Holy smokes that is alot of reading. You have plenty of great ideas but what your doing is a giant waste of time.Big walls of text with some very innovative ideas will not encourage anything with Disney.

WDW is a joke to the upper brass. They most likely can't figure out how they keep on making more and more $$$ (with a dwindling middle class while increasing prices compulsively) with such minimal investment. It doesn't make any sense at all, but they are getting away with it. Heck I can't figure it out for the life of me either.

Yea but now I can type my ideas down so they aren't stuck in my head. Plus I wondered what people thought
 
Continuing through the park we enter Carsland. Now my first thought was not to add Carsland, but then I begin to think how popular it was. If you replace the tire ride with something new and then give a different E-ticket for Radiator Spring Racers, you have a solid land that is different from the original. So here we go. You can enter Carsland from the main entrance which is through Star Wars Land. You can also enter the side entrance through Monstropolis (Monster Inc). The side entrance takes you right down by Cadillac range. The rockwork is made to blend with that from Star Wars land making a smooth transition. To your left you will have “Maters Junkyard Jamboree”. This ride is a clone from the original Carsland. The queue will be covered more then the original to help protect guest from the rain. Like I said details are important so even the poles holding up the canopies will be slightly rusted to fit the theme of the ride. You will find old tires and other rusty materials all throughout his junkyard. You then get on the ride which is covered up by a giant rusted roof. This roof will look like it is made out of pieces of scrap metal that Mater himself has thrown together. You then can ride the ride and exit back into the street. To your right you have Fillmore’s juice stand. That is not the official name though. You can drink things like Hippie juice, blast back, or flower power. Next you can visit the Cozy Cone motel for different snacks and treats. Each cone hotel will serve something different just like the one in Disneyland. Cone 1 will serve chili and cheese cones as well as the Mexican cone. They also will serve soft drinks. The next cone will have dessert cones which includes a cinnamon and fried ice cream cone, and a chocolate paradise cone. The third cone will have breakfast cones all day every day. You can get the scrambled egg cone with cheese and ham. (Also peppers and onions if you choose for an additional 50 cent) There is also the cinnamon role cone which will be the cone with baked cinnamon roles on the inside. The glaze will be oozing all over the cone. (So get napkins.) The fourth cone will have vegetarian options. You can get the veggie delight cone with raw or cooked vegetables. There is all the tofu cone which will feature grilled or raw tofu. The fifth and final cone will serve simple ice cream. You can get them in waffle cones or waffle bowls. There will be plenty of seating in the area to help with guest capacity. Each table will sit 6 and the umbrellas will help provide plenty of shade. The umbrellas will even be themed to look like cones. The planters in the area will have fake flowers that look like they are made from cones. You can also meet Lightening McQueen in front of the Cozy Cone check in.

Across the street is “Serge’s Surplus”. This is no longer a store but a new ride. Think of it as the mini version of the main E-Ticket. This is a family ride that allows families to complete Serge’s boot camp drill. It will sort of be like a dark ride except you are not going to watch scenes since you are in scenes. The entrance to the queue is right outside the main building. There will be a fasspass queue for guest who wish to use it on this ride. An extra outside queue will move down the side of the building during busy days. Anyway the queue goes inside as you wind down aisles of different military materials. (Made for cars of course) Over the intercom you can hear Serge explaining that you are going to be going through his boot camp drills. After you move through the ware house you enter into the back which is made to look like it is outside. (The entire ride is inside) The show building itself will be hidden from view so guest will not be able to see it. You enter into little army vehicles where there is two rows for two big people or three little people. There is a lap bar but no height requirement for this ride. The ride goes and rounds the first corner. Rockwork and specially made walls on the side will make it seem like you are outside in a dirt course. An AA serge will be standing at the entrance telling the recruits good luck since they are going to need it. Signs will explain each test as it happens. The first test is the tire test. (Not the official name but whatever) Real tires will be swinging back and forth over the track. The car will go through at normal speed, but guest will feel as if the tires are going to swing back at them. (The tires are programmed to never hit anything) You then move onto the hills test. Now you car goes up and down little slopes and. The third test is the bumpy road test. The vehicle will go over a few little different bumps making the vehicle jump. Your final test is the curves test. This is just where the vehicle goes through sharp turns to avoid walls and cones. (Imagine the outside portion of the Alice in Wonderland ride at Disneyland) After the test you exit back into the same loading station where you also unload into the surplus store. Just a small gift shop that sells cars merch. Also throughout each test there will be car AA or two on the side crying or not being able to complete the test.

is Flo’s V8 Café. This is the quick service location like in Disneyland. The menu will serve more unique items then you regular burger and fries. Fries here are fresh cut with specialty burgers. You can get the BBQ burger. This burger has homemade coca cola BBQ sauce with two fried onion rings, beef and cheese. Lettuce and other topping may be added upon request. There is also a veggie burger for guest looking for vegetarian options. The third type of burger is the turkey burger. Guest can get grilled chicken with the coca cola BBQ sauce with it. There is also pork chop with mashed potatoes and a homemade BBQ sauce different from the coke one. The sides will be mashed potatoes, French fries, sweet potatoes fries, baked potatoes, stuffing and more. So yea this quick service location will be a lot different then others across the resort. There will be inside seating as well as outside seating.

Ramone’s body shop will feature shirts and other clothing items. You can also get your face painted here as well as get your own shirt specialty made.

Lizzie’s will be a store that sell things like postcards, snow globes, and other collectibles. These items will only be found here so make sure to stop by.

Luigi’s tire shop was a difficult one. I thought about adding a ride, but then I decided four rides was to much for one land. So this is why I moved the ride down the street and decided to make his tire shop a store. You can find different cars items and other cars merch.

The rest of the street will feature the buildings you see in the movie that are abandoned. They will still light up at night and they will lead to Cadillac Range. The entire mountain will be but will be a little different. There is no track, but instead you can walk around the little mountain in the center. (The one with RS carved in the front) To the left is the entrance to the new E-ticket for the land. The ride will be more dark ride then its older brother in Disneyland. This will not feature any long racing parts since we have Test Track, but will feature moments of quick speed, dips and sharp turns. The theme of the ride is you are new car cruising into town. The queue goes through the original radiator springs area and into the side of the mountain. Guest then enter their car and start by taking a cruise through the mountain. The first part of the ride is outside like the original. Now I know heavy rains could close or delay the ride, but sometimes it is worth it. So anyway the ride then enters the cave, but instead of almost running into Mac you run into DJ, Snot Rod and the rest of the crew. They want you to pay to pass but Snot rod starts to sneeze before anything goes down. As he sneezes you speed up and go around the corner where you are stopped by Sheriff. He tells you to slow down but says they need your help in town. He then tells Mater to take you. Then the whole thing with the tractors take place until you are in town. You move through town and even stop through one of the two places. (either tires or paint) You then meet Doc who tells you to stop hanging around. He says that Lizzie is lost in the Radiator Springs Caverns and you need to help find her. Your car then moves into the caves where you start to look for Lizzie. Your car has to speed up to avoid falling stalagmites, rolling boulders and more. You even come close to going off the edge. “No really the front end of the car literally moves off the edge right as you try to turn) You find Lizzie sitting in the middle of the cave just talking, but now you have to hurry because the caves are collapsing! Your car starts to speed up and makes a few sharp turns before making it out alive with Lizzie. Your greeted by McQueen and Mater who thank you for finding Lizzie. (She did make it out) You then exit out and back into the Radiator Springs.
 
The next land will be Monstropolis. This is where you can enter the city of Monsters Inc. When you enter from Star Wars land you notice the change. You enter a little rock overpass into a city. (On the side going into Star Wars land you enter a car tunnel.) Now for the next few land the buildings to the left side (Including Toy Story) will be torn out and the lands will move back. To the right the play set will be removed to make way for a new store and quick service location. New city facades will go pretty high to give you the feel of city buildings. The buildings will be very detailed down to business names on the front windows. At night lights in the windows light up and you might see the shadow of a monster pass by. The one quick service location will be themed to the fruit market you see at the beginning of the first movie. There will be fruit stands outside that have fake monster fruit in them. Inside you can get a fresh snack or an iced lemonade or other refreshment. Limited outside and inside seating will be available. The store next to it will be like a clothing store. You can find clothing made for just this store. When you first enter a new building will be the sushi location from the first movie. Guest can get a reservation for the restaurant since it will be a sit down main dining location only. Guest can choose from a variety of different sushi, hibachi and teriyaki flavors. The menu will be reasonable priced as well. The restaurant will be designed to look designed Japanese. It will (Non-breakable) fish tanks, lanterns, bamboo walls ect. This building will be brand new and will have to go where the a portion of the Backlot Tour queue was. To the right of the building you come across the ally way that takes you to Carsland. The ally is themed to basically the side of two buildings. (Cant be more simple then that) The side of the buildings though will have things like windows, fire escape ladders ect to give it more a side street feel. You then walk through an overpass tunnel where you enter Carsland.

If you pass this ally way you will find the main E-Ticket for this land. It will be the Monsters Inc coaster. The façade of the building will be themed to the factory on a much smaller scale. The story behind the ride is that Mike and Sully have obviously found out that laughter is powerful. Well now they know that laughter mixed with fun screams is twice as powerful. So they have turned the door hanger bay into a coaster. They’ve notice that apparently people like to scream and laugh when they encounter thrills. So they now invite guest to enter and try out their new ideas. This way they can get plenty of energy for the city. So enter into the building and you enter the lobby of the MI. The roof goes way up with the glass roof and painted ceiling. The queue winds back and forth through the lobby and past the reception desk. An AA Cilia is standing there talking and interacting to guest while you wait. She may even stop to answer the phone while standing there. You then enter the pre-show room where Mike and Sully explain their crazy idea. At this point you enter the “thrill floor” to prepare for boarding. This will be suspended coaster with guest dangling off of the track. Suspended from the track will be a row of 10 doors. On the side of each door will be two seats that hang off over the edge of the track. So throughout the ride you are just going to dangle over nothing. The carts are also a little lose where Mike forgot to add those extra screws. So during the ride you cart is also going to rock forward and backwards. (Never completely upside down) After you are loading you head into the tunnel where you about to enter the door hangar. To the left you see a screen with Mike and Sully holding some energy cans. They remind you to scream and laugh to get enough energy for the cans. Before they can say anything else your cart starts to go up the chain lift. You are just in a tunnel right now so there is no special effects or anything in the tunnel. The only thing you will see is some empty energy cans laying around. Your train then goes down the first hill but in a spiral. The train picks up speed fast and then enters the first sharp bank. The train comes around does a dip and then shoots back over a little hill before going through another bank. Around you the room is themed with doors on tracks moving around you. This is where the ride gets cool since you now split down one of two tracks. To the right your train goes through what is called the endless bank. This is where your train goes around a bend and another bend without stopping. In then does a pretty steep dip before going through a small tunnel and meeting back to the one track. To the left you do one bend followed by a couple smaller dips with one more bend to take you in the tunnel to meet the one track. The one track then does a couple more banks with one more final steep drop. You may not have noticed but while you were laughing and screaming you will filling up energy. Your train slows down in the tunnel so you can see Mike and Sully watching their giant can fill up. Things are fine until smoke and light effects simulate an explosion. You then see a burnt Mike and Sully with Mike saying we are going to need a bigger can. Your train then exit into an unloading station where you get off and exit the ride. No gift shop for this ride and the height limit is 48 inches. Fasspass is also available for the ride.

The second ride for the area is literally right next to the coaster and is a family dark ride. (Something this park has seriously lacked from day one). This ride is where you enter a car and drive through the city of Monstropolis. It is somewhat similar to the ride in Disneyland except the AA’s are better, the scenes are different and the queue is different. The façade of the building looks like a normal city building but it is a taxi service. Guest enter the queue and walk through different rooms that are made to look like office cubicles. This is the main office for the taxi service so this is where the office is. Gust walk through the queue until they reach their taxi pick up zone. Your taxi leaves and you hear a voice over the intercom welcoming you to Monstropolis and that they hope you enjoy the tour. You immediately enter the first scene which is made to look like the city streets during the day. You see a small coffee shop to the left where a monster is filling up the other monsters cup of coffee. A monster is standing right next to your cart and is about to sneeze. You don’t make it past fast enough so he sneezes on guest and gets you a little wet. He apologizes while you move on. The next scene you see Mike and Sully outside standing by Mikes car. Sully says there is a laughter shortage and they need to walk. Mike is upset and agrees to walk to work. You enter the next scene where chaos has started and a CDA truck is parked on the side. CDA are examining the area as a human kid has entered the monster world again. You move past the truck as they are interviewing other monsters and a CDA monster tries to stop you. Your car speeds past the monster and into the next scene where you are in Monster Inc. Everything is in chaos as CDA is everywhere. You even see George being tackled to the ground because of a 2319. Your car goes down the corridors and into the locker room where Sully tells Mike he knows Boo must have came out of her door. In the corner a AA Randall appears and laughs claiming he is going to get the kid. He then disappears again and you move into the next scene. Mike and Sully are in a small room where they are looking around for traces of boo. Randall then appears above them laughing holding Boo in his hands. You hear Sully claim they have to go after her as you enter the next scene. The next scene is the door scene where you see doors moving all around as well as a AA Mike and Sully on a set of doors. The doors are moving after Randall who is on a door with Boo. Randall opens a door to get inside, but Boo starts to hit him on the had. He changes colors like in the movie and you move to the next scene. They are standing at the trash chute where Sully throws Randall inside. The next to last scene is to the left you see Randall be mashed, chopped and rolled. He then slides out in a little block. (Still alive) Your final scene is Mike and Sully sending Boo home. The ride exits out into a small gift shop that sells Monster merch.

Guest who don’t want to ride can just sit and take in the details of this new land. They can notice the bikes that are chained the poles. The weird looking fire hydrants, the colorful trees or that fountain dedicated to Mike and Sully. Don’t forget to stop by to get a picture of Mike and Sully before leaving!
 
The next land is going to be themed to Hercules. Now I wasn’t sure about this land at first since I didn’t know the popularity of the movie. Then I figured this isn’t going to happen anyway so why not role with it?

Ok so entering from the Monster world you look to your left and see the Toy Story building has been demolished and the new land moves back into that direction. To your right the original Toy Story meet and greet becomes a new meet and greet. The entire land is themed to a city based in that time. New facades will help block the view of the Great Movie Ride building. The meet and greet is where you can meet Herc and Meg.
Across from the meet and greet is where you enter the main portion of the city.


To your right will be the first building for the coaster. This coaster is themed to a ride through the underworld. The building looks normal on the outside, but on the inside is a door to the underworld. So guest can enter the building where it is first themed to a small store. You then move to the back where you enter a doorway leading into the underworld. You walk through caves and past pools of green liquid. (Now I know these rides and ideas for the next few lands will not necessarily “fit” into the area. But for the sake of it lets pretend it will) You then come to the loading station where you enter your car. The coaster is going to be somewhat similar to the mummy. It will feature the same kind of vehicle as well just themed differently. So you get in the coaster and you start off and enter the first room. You see a the AA’s of the three witches about to cut a thread of life. You see them cut it and hear the screams of a soul coming to the underworld. You then see the little “now served” sign go up. At the end of the room Pain and Panic try to stop you warning that Hades is not in the mood for any visitors. You move into the next room where the first portion of the coaster begins. This ride is very cool in that screens mixed with AA’s and other special effects will really put this ride over the top. Your coaster goes down the first small drop and begins to round corners. On both sides you pass screens made to look like gaps in the cave walls. You can see spirits passing the walls trying to reach out for you. Your coaster goes through a open cave section where steam starts to blow out of the holes. You barely make it past the erupting steam and enter the next room where you car comes to a stop. You then stand before an AA Hades who is calm at first. This AA will be very cool with a lot of range of motion and effects. He gets angry for you disturbing him and lighting and special effects make him turn red and the fire on his head grows. Machines being to shoot fire from beside his throne as he sends you into the darkness of the underworld never to be seen again. Your car then launches under the throne and into the second and final portion of coaster. Sharp banks and sudden drops are really the main focus of this ride all being in almost completely dark. You can hear the cave coming down around you and can get glimpses of the cave falling apart in the sides of the wall. (screens) The ride ends with you barley escaping a huge AA Cerberus! His three heads are sticking out of the side of the wall and you barely miss his giant bite. The ride then pulls out into a normal looking building where you have “escaped” the underworld. You then unload and enter a small gift shop featuring different kinds of merch.

Across from the ride is a quick service location themed as if the Gods themselves decorated it. The outside will look normal, but the inside will look somewhat elegant. Not super elegant or anything but more in a playful way. There are clouds on the roof and the building is two story. On the first floor you have the ordering station and quite a bit of seating. This is where restrooms are as well. The bottom floor is themed to a garden. Above you the floor of the second story is themed to clouds. So you look up and see clouds while people on the second floor look like they are standing on them. There is a real fountain and floral materials in one of the rooms on the first floor so it looks like a garden. The ordering area is straight ahead of you when you walk in. They will serve, chicken, salads, wraps ect. The second floor dining will be as if you are in Olympus. The floor will look like clouds and the roof will be like stars. No windows on the second floor so it helps to create the illusion. Other items like a waterfall on the wall will make it feel more regal.

Next you come to the hub or plaza of the land. There will be a fountain in the middle with buildings surrounding it. Pillars will look as if they are holding up the buildings just like in the movie. There will be one store where it is themed to the pot shop in the movie. You can buy hand made antiques and other items unique to the store. The second store will be a store that clothing, shoes, and other items.

The final thing in the hub is the dark ride themed to the movie. The ride is just a re telling of the classic story we already know. You enter the building into a queue themed to the beginning of the movie. There are giant statues and vases that tell about different heroes. Pay attention since the statues will move and interact with people. Also try to spot the vase with the Muses on them. You then enter your vehicle. The first room you see wall with the Muses painted on it. The wall is actually a screen and the Muses begin to move and tell you about the story of Herc. The next room you enter Olympus where you see a bunch of Gods hanging around celebrating. They are all AA’s and are interacting with each other. In the corner you see Zeus and his wife playing with Herc in the crib. You see Hades in the distance looking at the baby. (Through the ride the Muses give a narration of the ride) You then enter the underworld where the fates tell Hades the future. This room is really small and you enter this tunnel where giant screens all around you show the stars and the planets aligning as well as the Titans being freed. You leave the tunnel where you hear Hades sending Pain and Panic to kill Herc. The next scene you see Pain and Panic with Herc trying to kill him while he drinks the potion. In the distance you see the shadow of the old couple that find him. The next scene is a teenage Herc in a town where the town has been destroyed because of his strength. The next scene is where Herc is in the temple where he is talking to the giant Zeus. (There are more details in the scene I am just being quick) The next scene is training with Phil. (Also the scene are pretty small and you move pretty fast) You then move to the scene with the Hydra where a big giant hydra AA is fighting Herc. Meg is standing to the sound and watching with the crowds. The next scene is where Hades tells Meg to trick Herc and also the scene where they are walking in the garden. The next scene Hades take the powers from Herc and releases the Titans. Then you move to the scene where Herc is trying to fight the giants but Meg is killed. You then go to the next scene where Herc is getting out Megs soul from the underworld. The final scene is everyone celebrating and being happy like every Disney move ever made. Yes that is a lot of scenes, but there is more details and special effects so the ride is a lot better then what I described! The ride then exits into a small gift shop. Also I wanted to point out that some people may imagine a dessert looking place. Well when you first enter the land or are passing through by the meet and greet you notice that it is the garden Meg sings her little song. So there is a little pool in the middle with trees and bushes ect. Also in the “city” there are plants that hang from the balcony of buildings and the planters. So much more floral then you may think! Alright next land is Bugs land!
 
Now Bugs land was something I knew people on here would probably attack. I mean you look at the one at DCA and you can tell that is flat out CHEAP. Well I think the idea of the land is really good and can work if it features the right rides and atmosphere. So this area takes the place of the Animation Courtyard. So Disney Jr., Little Mermaid, and the Art of Animation building is all gone. You can enter from Hollywood Blvd or from Hercules. If you come from Hollywood you will notice that the giant archway with Mickey on it is now gone to make a much smaller wall. This use to mark the entrance for the original Backlot Tour and has no purpose anymore. So the wall is smaller and that side ramp stays. One Mans Dream is also gone and has moved to the Magic Kingdom. The land is themed to well you have been shrunk to the size of a bug. The leaves and plants are HUGE in this world. Planters and other things around you will make you feel very small. If you enter from Hollywood then to the right you will notice the spinner. Now this spinner is meant to help eat some of the crowds. This way they are not just trying to get in line for every popular ride. The spinner is themed to look like the bugs made it, but they are the ones from the circus. So the praying mantis and his assistant made this flyer. Next to the ride is a small shop with the outside made to look like a Chinese take out box.

Where little mermaid once stood is where you will find a new smaller building that holds the Bug Life dark ride. This dark ride is going to take guest through the story of Bugs Life. The outside of the building looks like the ant hill from the movie. You enter in and pass the glowing mushrooms and other items in the hole. You board your ride vehicle which looks like it is made of leaves and twigs. You then enter into the ride where you go through scenes through the story. Some of the scenes will include swerving back and forth to avoid Flicks machine that tosses plants, racing through the ant hill to escape grasshoppers and dodging giant rain drops. (The rain drop scene will be so cool with the different special effects. You will even get wet some when the rain falls!) The AA’s will be updated AA’s with fluid range of motion. No store will follow the ride.

Since the Muppets area and the Hercules area have big quick service locations I didn’t think Bugs Land would need one. So you will only find a small snack shack. The shack is themed to the Casey Jr. cookie box from the movie. It will be on the left hand side of the spinner and across from the dark ride. Near where the old bathrooms are is the new bathrooms themed and brought a little closer. The Bugs area will also have a water play area and a small play ground type thing where kids can go through tunnels or climb nets. Similar to the area at Hollywood Studios now.


Now the next and FINAL land for Hollywood Studios is accessed by going through Bugs land. If you are coming from Hollywood Blvd then just go straight through. The new Muppet land will be straight ahead and will take up space never used before. The new land will have a 3-D show, a ride and a quick service location. Not to mention stores and other surprises. So basically the theme of this land is that you are visiting the real Muppet studios. So when you enter through the gates you see to your right first the Muppet theater. To the left is the Muppet studio tour and ahead of you is the quick service location and stores.

The first thing you will want to visit is of course the studios tour. This is a tour the Muppets have made just for guest. Dr. Honeydew has created a new ride system that will allow guest to move through the different rooms of the studio and get a tour. So enter the building and you enter what looks somewhat like a storage room. There are boxes hanging from the ceiling along with many different props. Keep a look out for many different gags and jokes in the ride. Something that I personally want to be in this line is the net full of Jell-O. (People who know what that represents will get it) You enter your vehicle which looks like it could give way at any moment but you are reassured that it is safe. Dr. Honeydew gives his safety message and you are on your way. The first room is Ms. Piggy’s dressing room. You enter and there is a disco ball spinning in the middle. Fruit and other food on the table to the left is singing and you can hear Ms. Piggy behind her changing wall. Your cart moves through but not fast enough for Ms. Piggy to pop out and start yelling. Your car rounds a corner as you leave Ms. Piggy screaming and yelling. The next room is the joke room with Fozzie. Your car stops in the middle of the room where a AA Fozzie is holding some sort of gun type thing. He calls in the gas gun and wants to test it out. You don’t get away fast enough and the stinky gas hit’s the car. You can smell the stink and move on. Fozzie is laughing and doing what I guess he would normally do after a joke. The next room is the stunt room with Gonzo. You can see things like his cannon and other props. The Gonzo AA is standing in the middle of the room where he says he is going to do perform an indoor running of the bulls just for his guest. He goes to unleash the bulls that are pounding at a side door and before he can the lights flash out. You hear the bulls go free and your vehicle will actually jerk a little and shake as if they are passing you! The lights slowing come back on and Gonzo peeps from behind a box. He states Honeydew must have been trying to perform an experiment that flashed the power. He apologizes for missing the stunt and you move on. The next room is the lab where you meet Beaker and Dr. Honeydew. The Dr. welcomes you and tells you that you will witness his latest experiment. He says he is able to put any item inside the machine and it will turn into a pie! ( I know weird just hang with me) He goes to pull the lever but he doesn’t realize Beaker is in the tube working. The tube door shuts and smoke fills the tube. Dr. Honeydew unaware of what is happening turns around in horror to find his assistant a pie! You drive away as Dr. Honeydew does a disgraceful face palm. You come to the next room where the band is practicing for the next show. Nothing crazy happens here. You stop and watch the band perform a small song. Things go wrong though since Animal goes crazy on the drums. You watch as the drums start to spark literally! You move on while he goes crazy. The final room is where you meet Kermit and he thanks you for visiting the studio. He also tells you that he hopes you visit them in the theater some time. Your vehicle comes around the corner to the loading dock, but not before the two old men are standing to the side making funny comments about the people riding. You then exit out into a small gift shop.

Across from the ride is the Muppet theater where you will watch a half 3-D half stage show. In front of the theater you have the fountain with planters to make the building really stand out. You enter the queue and the inside is very formal looking. You go to the pre-show where you hear the Muppets fighting and trying to prepare for the show. Then at the front of the room a Sam the Eagle AA comes out and gives instructions for the show. You then are placed inside the theater. You keep 3-D glasses on but there are scenes that involve AA’s on or off the stage as well. For example the band is on the stage. When Gonzo fires himself out of a cannon you better duck because his cannon is turned towards the crowd. He passes by and you hear a blast behind you. Turn around to see an AA Gonzo lift out of the wall and say TA-DA before passing out. The two old men will also be on the balcony cracking plenty of jokes as well.
 
The quick service location will be themed to the Swedish chef. The restaurant will be Swedish Italian. So fresh baked pizzas and other Italian dishes. In the main dining restaurant you will see a huge screen made to like a window on the back wall. It is made to be a look in the kitchen. You can watch the chef or other Muppets do things in the kitchen. A lot of chaos happens in the dining room including the chef looking in the vents for his lost chicken. There will also be limited outside seating. This will be quick service with an upscale menu.

There will also be two stores as well. The first is the storage room where guest can get random Muppet merch. The second room is a clothing store themed to Ms. Piggy’s dressing room. You can find cloths and other items that are meant to be themed to things she would make.


So that is Hollywood Studios new and improved. Although at this point I should mention the new name of the park is “Hollywood Adventure” The parking lot will receive two new parking lots towards the back. A new entrance will be built across from Pop Century. This will be the new and only entrance for the park. You can also find the earful tower at the entrance by the road. The road off world drive will be closed and used for expansion. The road off Buena vista drive is for buses. A new parade will be brought in and will follow the path it always did. The parade will feature floats from each movie represented in the park. There would also be a special Christmas parade that plays during the holidays. Fantasmic! Would receive some upgrades. This means new lighting, a new snake, new fountains, more pyros, and a new dragon! A firework show would also be available during peak season times. Star Wars weekend would continue with fireworks, parades and shows. Late September and October would be a party themed to the Friday the 13th party they had last year. Well except it wouldn’t be Friday the 13th. So yea that’s that. Next on to Animal Kingdom!
 
Animal Kingdom is hands down one of the most beautiful theme parks and arguably one of the most beautiful Disney theme parks. Its pure spirit is only matched by the quality of the atmosphere you get when you walk through the park. (Minus Dino-Rama) In my version I didn’t focus on adding a huge selection of rides. In fact in my new version the park adds two rides in Avatarland, two in Beastly Kingdom, and Dino Rama is replaced with a new flume ride. So the new ride count for the park would be 9 up from the current 6. In a park though where you have great animal exhibits, nature trails and entertainment, you do not need many rides.

The entrance to the park remains vastly the same. In the front the planters are given some new trees to give the area more shade. I want guest to feel like they are walking into a forest when they arrive. So more trees to really fill things in. The small gift shop and snack kiosk will stay. The Rainforest Café is going to be removed and the entrance will be filled in with trees. Once you reach the entrance to the right you will have stroller rentals. To the left is first aid much like it is today. Guest can then enter into the Oasis.

The Oasis is going to remain that mysterious and relaxing place in the park. You can continue to see the neat animal exhibits that encompass the area.

Now we move to Discovery Island. On the island you can watch live entertainment bands perform, take a walk into the Tree of Life or stick around for a nighttime show. The Tree of Life will be completely rebuilt from scratch much like what will be happening in the near future. The limbs will be removed and replaced as well as the leaves. These leaves will have lights in them that will glow during the nighttime show but during the day look like normal leaves. The tree itself will be painted to look fresher as if it had just been built. Inside Bugs Life will be evicted from the area. You can now enter a show that reflects the nature and beauty of the Earth. The queue will move through just as it does now. In fact the queue will stay the same. You enter into the tree and the room is the same. You are given 3-D glasses, but they look like they are made of twigs. Mother Nature herself has made them for you. They are to help you see the world the way she sees them. The new show will be 3-D but also feature state of the art AA’s. The place where Hopper came out is where Mother Nature appears. So anyway you enter the show and are seated. The lights go dim and calm music begins to play. A soft blue light gives the room this soothing glow. Mother Nature rises from the stump almost like a tree growing from the ground. She wears a white dress covered in green vines. She welcomes you and tells you about how humans tend to be destructive. She then tells you to put on your glasses that she has made so you may see things how she sees them. You put them on and the screen in front of you comes alive. When you first walk in and before the show the screen is covered in vines and wood so it blends in with the walls. The screen reveals different animals on the stage. Mother Nature has disappeared and reappeared on the screen. Throughout the show different things will happen. There will be elephants who spray you with water, bugs who crawl under your seat, mice will run under your feat and the evil forces of nature will attack. This part is cool since this is a man who is the opposite of Mother Nature. He creates a storm and mist and lighting effects make the storm feel real. Giant fans will even blow so that you can feel the wind. Trees and other debris fly at you. The show ends with Mother Nature gaining control and the show ends on a happy note. You then exit back into Discovery Cove. The boat landing is now back open for business The boats load at the dock and travel past Pandora, Africa and undock in Beastly Kingdom. You can also get on from there as well. This will help with capacity issues for the park. There is nothing special except you have a guide who tells you about each area you pass. You can just take in the scenery and other things. The little meet and greet for Russell and Dug is no longer there and is replaced with an interactive Donald and Daisy meet and greet. This means there is a talking Donald and Daisy! Now the Flame Tree BBQ is so good that I couldn’t even consider removing it. The color palate of the buildings are different though. Instead of that weird green and orange we have more darker blues and browns with greens. This goes for the design over every building in the area. The seating area will also stay the same. Across the way we have the bathrooms as well as the performer area. I think we should keep the performers here. Guest can see them, but they do not create any bottlenecks or any kind. The store across from the original Bugs Life show will remain the same except for the outside colors. The inside might see new carpet as well as new lighting. Creature Comforts will NOT become a quick service location like it is meant to be. If Starbucks is really going to go there then it is ok since Starbucks will not go someplace else. This will continue to be a store although the giant Disney characters have to go. Mickey and Minnie will continue to meet where they currently are. Both will become interactive and will talk to guest. The new nighttime show will be pretty amazing as well. Obviously for the best views you will want to be in front of the tree. But if you cant get to the front or there is not enough room the back or sides is fine. In fact the show takes place all over the tree. The fountains are only visible from the front, back and left side. Guest on the right can not see fountains due to the large body of water. The theme of the show is the Tree of Life comes to life. So you watch as this special tree changes before your eyes. Fountains as well as water screens help set the tone for this show. With special effects the animals on the tree come to life and move! The leaves even glow in the dark throughout the show. Watch as power and energy flows through this great tree!
 
The next land is going to be Dino Land U.S.A. The land will keep its name for now until I can think of a better one. The theme of the land is that you are stepping into the world of Dinosaurs the moment you step into the world. This place is a land untouched by human hands. Even the quick service location will look like giant rocks and cliffs and not buildings. So when you enter from Discovery Island you notice the change right away. The little snack shacks on the right against the wall have been removed. The walls have been reworked a little bit so they look like natural walls. If you take the path down to the edge of the giant lagoon you will see new water features and rocks. Water will flow down the cliffs into large pools with fresh water lily’s and other beautiful plants and flowers. If you follow the path straight you will go under the bridge that was once part of the dig site. The dig site is still there but is now a walk through nature trail. You enter where you originally entered and are welcomed by a cast member. You wait in the queue and the cast member takes guest in through small groups. You then go through the beautiful nature trail to see real AA Dinos, Dino eggs and more. You can even get close to one Dino and touch it. The Dino will represent the new era of AA’s. The Dino can move, walk, breathe and make sound. So every time you come he is in a different position.

The quick service location building is still there, but I have tore down the building. The new building looks like it has been made out of rocks and other materials. So the entrance to the building is moved forward a little bit and there is more vegetation and planters out front since that tacky trailer and other material is gone. You enter into the cave like entrance and probably think this is a pretty amazing room. The walls and roof are cave like but special lighting gives the entire room this very peaceful and calming glow. There are lighting in here that are themed to almost look like bright diamonds. So the room is pretty bright. Up front is the counter where you can order the food. They place will serve wraps, burgers, sandwiches ect. To your right is the restroom which is themed as well as to the rest of the restaurant. Yes because themed bathrooms are VERY important in Disney World! To your left is where all the seating is. The first room is an inside cave, but there is a water feature in the middle of the room. This room is slightly larger then the original. The pool has small water plants in it and the water reflects on the cave walls. Lighting is also on the walls and roof so the room is not as dark as you probably picture it. Turn left to enter into a small room which is now outside seating. You can sit at a covered table. The tables look like they were made from wood and other materials in the area to help keep that pure theme.

Now Dinosaur is a very fun ride. If you take the exception of the very dark spots with nothing happening, the almost non functional Dinos, the bad effects ect. So I am creating a new ride that will use the same ride system, but will have a new story. No need to go back in time since we are in the time before the extinction of the Dinos. You are going to enter and ride on the backs on a Dino. An Ankylosaurus to be exact. The Dino will move his head and stuff as you are loading onto his back. (Well a Dino with jeep like sitting on his back lol. That’s going to be a pretty big hole in the bugger!) Anyway to the queue. When you approach the ride you notice that the outside looks like a giant cave. Now I don’t want just a bunch of big black rocks so the rockwork here is very detailed. Grass is growing on the top of certain parts along with a few trees. Water runs down the middle of the rocks and into the pull in the front. The Dino is moved from the water and in its place is just a natural looking pond full of water plants. A small planter also goes all the way around the fountain. The fossils that stand outside in the plaza of the ride have been taken down. The two pillars that welcome guest into the plaza have been replaced with rock pillars with torches. A sign that looks like it was carved from wood is pointing to the ride. So no more of the cheesy posters or anything. So anyway the ride enters the same it did before. The only difference is obviously you will not see any of the show building so that will be covered in the outside part of the queue. The extended queue will continue to extend back while adding some more planters and vegetation back there. You enter the building and notice how the entire thing just looks like you are in a cave. There are no glass cases with animals inside, but you may see small fossils of animals that died in the stone. You round the corner and come into the main atrium that is now made to look like outside except inside. The walls look like cliffs so you look like you are in a secluded watering hole. In the middle a water pond is where the giant fossil was and there is rocks jutting out. On the top are some AA Dinos like what you are about to ride on. They move and make sounds while the guest are in there. Special wind and air effects will make the place feel outside. This time the pre-show rooms have been knocked out to make way for more queue. You continue to feel like you are outside and the walls look like rocks with moss and other detailing. The roof goes up a little more to help stimulate sky. You then enter the giant boarding room where you goes down rock steps lead to the ground floor. This room is made to look almost like a nesting ground and the Dinos are leaving it. You are going to travel to the new nesting grounds. The room has new details like rock walls, a water fall trickling down the wall ect. You board your vehicle on one of the two sides. You then round the corner and at this point the ride track changes. Your Dino goes up a small slope and is making its way to the new nesting grounds. I don’t have many of the details for the ride just yet. All I know is the AA Dinos will be the most high tech AA’s you have ever seen! Also it will be daytime but you will encounter volcanic areas as well as a rain storm. Once you exit the ride you enter a small gift shop where you can buy different knick knacks or get a copy of your picture.


So now you take a right and go down that little path. To your left is the smoking area which has been worked to like it is made of wooden beams and materials. Continue down you enter what was once the Hester and Chester gas station. Now you have a small little hut type building. The roof is thatched with straw like material and the inside looks very old. There are old things on the shelf that point that someone use to live here. You can buy different things here, but also notice the living supplies. The story is that one man had came to the past and had lived here before disappearing into the rocky terrain of the artic Dinos. You exit and in front of you is the new E-Ticket ride for the area. There is jagged rocks sticking out of the ground everywhere around it and you notice towards the top is snow covered rocks. If you go to the front you notice people dropping down a waterfall down below the new bridge. This bridge will let guest walk past or just observe fellow guest plunge down under them. Anyway the queue to this ride is right across from the store. In fact this store will play into the story as well as be the gift shop for the ride.

So anyway you come to the entrance of the line where a cast member welcomes you. It is your job to go into the mountains and find the missing professor. So you wind through the queue which is not going to be in caves since I figured we had enough of that. You wind through the queue admiring the vegetation and notice that you are slowly moving upward somewhat. Eventually you come to the loading dock and board a boat that looks like it is made up of different wooden materials. Before you get on the boat you may notice a small tent or two where the professor was taking notes. Make sure to hear his warnings about the giant snow Dinosaurs in the mountains! You board your boat which has 4 rows of 4. Your boat takes off and rounds the first corner. At first you are surrounded by vegetation but then you see the rocks starting to appear. The rocks are jagged and you begin to go up the first lift. The lift takes guest up pretty high and you move faster then you would on Splash Mountain. The rocks become more and more jagged and start to be covered in snow. Cool air blows towards the boat and you realize you are high up. (It will take a lot of fans and machines to help blow enough cold air onto the boats through a lot of the ride) You then come off the lift into the jagged and mysterious sections. Your boat moves somewhat swiftly through the river and you notice Dinos like you have never seen before. These Dinos have long hair and seem to have evolved to fit this area. You might even catch a Mammoth or a Saber Tooth. Water flows beyond the sides of the track to give more of the river appearance. You round the first corner and can hear the wind blowing through the high peeks. Then a giant Dino comes out of the icy water and splashes the cold water all over you! He wiggles his head and looks at you funny. He leans forwards and sniffs the boat as you pass but doesn’t feel like he is danger so he carries on. Vegetation is low up here and you only seem to see ice and rocks. A giant Mammoth is standing to the right of the boat while two little ones stand on the left. The giant one comes up on two legs before lowering down and smashing the ice. You hear the ice crack and the Mammoth starts to shake its head while watching you closely. You make it past and get away just in time to see a giant Dino standing above a cave entrance. He looks pretty hungry and is roaring and admiring the boat full of fresh meat. You start to pass under him as he actually comes down quite a bit! His head sticks out and you can almost reach him. You are so busy looking at him that you don’t notice that you are plummeting down into the cave. You go down probably a drop the size of Slippin Falls on Splash Mountain. Your boat moves quickly right back outside and you see even more Dinos. You see two carnivores Dinos fighting over a piece of meat. They tug back and forth between the meat not even taking the time to notice you. To your left you see Dinos drinking in the water only barely looking up to spot you. Things start to pick up here as the boat now enters more treacherous territory. A Giant Saber Tooth and a pack of a couple more are waiting for you around the corner and you maybe slide towards the middle of the boat as they growl and swipe at you. They don’t feel like getting wet so they give up as you pass, but this next water Dino doesn’t. He is hungry for meat and he wants you out. To the right is an opening of water where you see a fin come out and approach the boat. With special mechanics you boat does a rough shake as he hit’s the boat. His fin dips down as the boat continues and you then feel another bump this time slightly going up as if he is trying from the bottom. Then you come to a cross ways where the angry Dino knocks you down the wrong path! He sends you down the section which leads straight for the falls. Your boat rounds the corner and makes a pretty big drop and then followed by another smaller drop. You round the corner and you notice a bunch of hungry Dinos taking aim at your boat. They move back and forth doing anything to get you. You move now to the final lift scene which is inside a cave like entrance. Super cold air is now blowing as if you are reaching the peak of the mountain. You then see the giant water Dino is out of the water and is ready to eat you. (So yes this does follow some ideas from the ride at IOA but it will be better trust me!) You barley miss
 
I would love to read all your ideas, honestly I would, but the way you have your posts formatted it is very difficult to read It kind of reminds me of someone who talks on and on and doesn't " come up for air " Maybe more paragraphs ?

Don't mean to hurt your feelings Please don't take it that way
 
Little too much to read, but I was able to glance at a few items.

You have some pretty cool ideas. Have you considered becoming an Imagineer?
