The Enchanted Snow Palace

[jtowntoflorida]

Like a large proportion of the country, we received our BluRay copy of Frozen today. Since we bought a digital copy via Amazon Instant Video a few weeks ago and have been watching that at home ever since, we were more interested in the bonus features than the actual movie tonight. While, IMO, the bonus features were pretty lame, I did find one particularly interesting. They showed a talk between the movie directors and the wife of Marc Davis, who was the Imagineer behind many of the original theme park rides in the Disney parks. Apparently, he had created concept art for a ride called The Enchanted Snow Palace, and his drawings were amazing. The ride featured the Snow Queen. The plans were scrapped at the time because Disney wanted to focus on coasters (and hence BTMRR was born) but since the drawings live on and their existence is now being highlighted by Disney...do you think it's possible that with the success of Frozen, they're thinking of bringing the idea back to life? Could this be the Next Big Thing in the parks? If so, where do you think they'd put it? I know a bunch of us are talking a Star Wars Land at DHS...but what about a Frozen land instead?

I'm probably too optimistic, but the discussion of The Enchanted Snow Palace on the BluRay made me hope that maybe this is Disney's first tease at something great to come in the parks.

Here is a description of the attraction:

Thoughts?

Oh wow. I haven't watched the bonus features yet, but now I am excited to see them. I don't really have an opinion on whether or not this was a "teaser" but I do think it would be really cool! Not sure about an entire land... just so long as they don't mess with Maelstrom... lol.
