Just a Dream Away- The Imagineering Thread*Are you curious, imaginative, dedicated?

Oh!
And for the D23 expo: they have the next few years booked around the same time for D23.

From what i've seen, it doesn't seem all that good. I saw someone on Twitter say they found one where you volunteer at a hospital for the emotionally unstable...

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

Oh good.

I just think it could have been done better, like having a form for any volunteer organization to validate (though it would unfortunately be easy to fake), instead of using a specific database.

 

[marypops!]

The form would be better. I can't think of a way to make it unforgeable though.

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

Yeah, true.

World of Color is going to be so awesome.

when is that premeire date for WoC? i want to be there

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

I'm thinking its in March, but I don't know an exact date.

I do know its standing room only and if you want to stand in the ampitheatre/main viewing area you'll need a "Showpass" which is a fastpass for shows and very limited.

 

[marypops!]

Aren't the showpasses supposed to be where the Grizzly River Run is? How close is that to the ampitheatre then?

It's not too far, I think there's a direct path.
It's not really an amphitheater, but it's like leveled ground so many people can watch the show in one place. They're using the GRR fastpass machines for now, and I think the viewing area isn't too far away.

 

[marypops!]

I'm guessing it's the prime viewing area for the show. Are you able to see it elsewhere in the park?

What is World of color?!?!

 

[marypops!]

It's going to be the new nighttime show at Disney's California Adventure.

You can watch it from anywhere on the Paradise Pier lagoon, but its designed more specifically for the front-and-center viewing area.

It'd be like watching Disneyland's Fantasmic! from the sides of the Rivers of America instead of on the multilevel viewing area.

Any ideas for rides that should be added to Critter Country (let's pretend there is space)

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

I'm all for gouging out Pooh with something interesting.

Thing is, it's difficult to make something that will "click" with Splash Mountain.

Pooh isn't really a critter (he's a stuffed animal....) so he really just.. does not belong...

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

I think a Bayou PatF attraction would work well. It keeps the "down south" vibe of Splash, critters, and is a good transition from New Orleans Square.

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

So... I'm imagining it now.

Make it a boat-ride through the bayou following Tiana, Naveen, Ray, and Louis through a set of adventures, ending at Mama Odie's tree-house.

I'm not afraid to post ideas anymore, because of a post I read on Micechat.
Nautilus on MiceChat once had a very good post about posting ideas on messageboards:

Who's gonna take it? Really? That's what cracks me up about some people on this board, being protective and secretive with their ideas because they want to use them "when they get to WDI". Don't be silly. It's not a big deal to post them on the internet, I have yet to see ANY ideas posted around here get fully realized in the parks. I wouldn't be that worried about someone taking my ideas; it would be quite obvious that if they did steal something, you back it up with the original source. Chances are slim anybody here gets into WDI, and chances are even slimmer that you get to implement your ideas and have them come to full fruition; you're gonna get assigned to someone else's project. But the ideas you have now, if you fully develop them with concept art and good documentation can make good portfolio pieces.

 

[WDWtraveler27]

well PATF belongs more in New Orleans Square than critter country.... Also, theres already a boat ride in New Orleans Square...having two in the smae place could be kinda weird xD but i really like boat rides. how about a dark ride style vehicle that FLOATS DDD

 

[WDWtraveler27]

I say bambi belongs there. with a trackless ride system during the frozen pond scene not really following the story but emphasazing the scenery and mini adventures bambi had in his childhood.
