They could have more guest flocking in to HK Disney and TDR with fresh themes that can't be found anywhere else, otherwise the Asia's parks are simply becoming more and more conventional clones of the others.<br /><br />Do you think is there any reason that the WDI is going to use these themes on WDW, DCA, or the others?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-44023505386177156682009-10-04T21:55:18.861-07:002009-10-04T21:55:18.861-07:00WDW already has a Haunted Mansion so it won't ...WDW already has a Haunted Mansion so it won't be going there...<br /><br />It's one with a much stretched story line and its variation makes it more a cousin than a clone, but WDI won't put it there.<br /><br />But something as creative might be able to go there.

The storyline could be tweaked so that Lord Henry could be an explorer of strange worlds and mythical creatures, and the rooms of the house could have pictures, trophies etc involving dragons, unicorns, griffins, giants, banshees, and so on. Could make a truly great dark ride. God knows WDW could use a few more of those. The last stellar one they built was Tower of Terror, which was a long time ago...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-60108941592516679452009-10-04T15:07:44.403-07:002009-10-04T15:07:44.403-07:00Does anyone know if there's room behind the Be...Does anyone know if there's room behind the Beauty and the Beast area in the Magic Kingdom's Fantasyland expansion for a Dark Ride? I thought I heard that there would still be an expansion plot there for a future ride, and I could certainly see the trackless system making for a brilliant Beauty and the Beast Dark Ride. Imagine that though, having two World-Class dark rides built right next to each other within two or three years in a whole new sub-land.

Another E ticket at DCA to spread out the crowds. And yes trackless of course. Why not be the first park in the US to do it?<br /><br />Just thinking outside the box here.Jonathan Tnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-75017813200089581902009-10-04T07:31:53.064-07:002009-10-04T07:31:53.064-07:00I suppose it can be worse if not done right. I was...I suppose it can be worse if not done right. I was disappointed with the significantly altered (in my view) of DCA's Tower of Terror. The new ride track (different than WDW's version) has changed the ride quality significantly and made the original storyline of the ride rather puny. There's a lack of story flow and the resulting climatic drop was anti-climatic. No built-up and a lack of suspense. A bit of a miss.CanBeWorsenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-69395037376812624512009-10-04T04:08:14.888-07:002009-10-04T04:08:14.888-07:00^^ Apparently Toy Story Land was somewhat last min...^^ Apparently Toy Story Land was somewhat last minute addition to replace a different concept that was rejected.<br /><br />Mind you, that's no excuse since one way or another Paris is getting suckered into Toy Story Land without being given the alternative (presumably).Alex Bogdanovicnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-37033809075887373602009-10-03T21:34:45.997-07:002009-10-03T21:34:45.997-07:00Alec:

Grizzly Trail and Mystic Point both look spectacular."</i><br /><br /><br />The recent output of Imagineering has been less than satisfying to say the least. The whole Toy Story Land just seems to be an extension of Flick’s Fun Fair. For Lasseter to accept all these minimally themed carnival rides as Disney attractions makes me question his abilities. <br /><br />Even the dark rides in Fantasyland, as old and simple as they are, have more creativity involved in their creation than the Toy Story Land appears to have. It’s almost like Disney’s recent strategy of sticking clones in every park, but this one, which I would expect in DCA, is being foisted on Hong Kong. <br /><br />Of course, given Hong Kong’s initial layout, I guess I should be more surprised at Grizzly Trail and Mystic Point, areas that appear to be beyond HK expectations. Was the TS Land model at the D23 Expo an apparent quick replacement? It wasn’t finished to the detail as the other areas. If so, was it just some quick and dirty replacement for something that they didn’t want to show yet, or was it actually something that they are seriously considering?brommalnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-57335579490560151642009-10-03T20:43:22.454-07:002009-10-03T20:43:22.454-07:00I wonder if a trackless Great Movie Ride would wor...I wonder if a trackless Great Movie Ride would work in Hollyoodland (as it will become).PirateGuy 815https://www.blogger.com/profile/13746637369853537883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-71398746618163531972009-10-03T16:52:15.428-07:002009-10-03T16:52:15.428-07:00Yea all parks outside of America will have somethi...Yea all parks outside of America will have something trackless coming over the next few years.<br /><br />So will there be anything for Disneyland and WDW coming at some point in the future?
