I have been working on a proposal for a brand new Disney theme park [link removed by admin], and thought I'd post it here since this website has an Imagineer forum! My proposed Disney theme park resort sits on 1200 acres of land-- about 3-4 times the size of Disneyland's (Anaheim) property, but only an insect compared to the massive 27,000+ acres Walt Disney World covers. As of opening day (or at least shortly afterward), this Disney theme park resort will consist of two theme parks; The Magic Kingdom, and Disney Studios (name of park's location); four hotels, plus a campground; a Downtown Disney retail and entertainment district; two golf courses; and possibly a water park as well. Here is my list of attractions for each theme park. Rides/attractions denoted by (FP) used the FastPass service:
THE MAGIC KINGDOM
Main Street, USA
Rides and Attractions:
1.) City Hall
2.) The Disney Gallery: This is very much like Main Street Gallery at WDW's MK and Town Square Exhibition Hall; displaing various Disney exhibits and artifacts.
3.) Disneyland Railroad
4.) Fire Station: The Fire Station will have an antique fire engine and full line of Firefighter equipment. IIRC, WDW's MK took their fire engine out and much of the equipment to make way for 101 Dalmations and Mickey Firefighter merchandise to be sold. To maintain the fire engine and all equipment; the 101 Dalmations and Mickey Firefighter merchandise will be sold in the Toontown Fire Station, which I will get to a bit later on.
5.) Main Street Bank: which offers currency exchange, Disney Dollars, and Disney Vacation Club Services and information.
6.) Main Street Cinema: which will run various Disney cartoons and well as old silent movies!
7.) Main Street Vehicles
8.) Penny Arcade
9.) The Walt Disney Story
Food & Restaurants:

17.) 20th Century Music Company
Liberty Street (part of Main Street, USA)
Liberty Street is a short side street off of Main Street between Town Square and the lower, right-hand block of Main Street. This is basically an abbreviated version of Liberty Square. Liberty Street was originally planned by Walt Disney himself for Disneyland as far back as 1956! However, it was never built, and eventually evolved into Liberty Square at WDW's Magic Kingdom.
Rides and Attractions:
1.) The Hall of Presidents
2.) Liberty Bell Replica: This is a replica of the Liberty Bell much like the one WDW has in Liberty Square.
3.) Liberty Tree
Food & Restaurants:
1.) Liberty Tree Tavern
2.) Sleppy Hollow
Shops:
1.) Boston Observer Print Shop
2.) Paul Revere's Candle Shop

4.) Yankee Trader
5.) Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe

3.) Hakuna Matada Restaurant
4.) The Skipper's Galley
Shops:
1.) Agrabah Bazaar
2.) Indiana Jones Adventure Outpost
3.) Island Supply Company
4.) South Seas Traders
5.) Tropical Imports
Carribean Plaza (part of Adventureland)
Carribean Plaza is a section of Adventureland themed to a Carribean colonial settlement. Unlike WDW's CP architecture (which has a Carribean Fort-like design), this park's Carribean Plaza will be modeled after New Orleans Square at Disneyland, since much of New Orleans's architecture has roots in the Carribean!
Rides and Attractions:
1.) The Haunted Mansion (FP)
2.) Pirates of the Carribean (FP): which will be designed similar to Disneyland's extended 14-minute ride, as opposed to WDW's 9 minute ride.
Food & Restaurants:
1.) Blue Bayou Restaurant
2.) Café Orléans
3.) Le Petite Patisserie
4.) Mint Julep Bar
5.) Royal Street Veranda
Adventureland's Carribean Plaza also includes Club 33, a members-only club/restaurant, similar to Club 33 at Disneyland's in New Orleans Square!
Shops:
1.) Cristal D'Orléans
2.) House of Treasure
3.) Jewel of Orleans

Themed to Brer Rabbit, Brer Bear, and the gang; Laughing place features a southern-style/Soul Food menu; for example, Fried Chicken, Catfish, Collard Greens, Cornbread, Fried Green Tomatoes, etc. Laughing Place serves Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner; and is the only table-service restaurant in Critter Country.
4.) Rackety's Racoon Saloon
Shops:
1.) Big Al's
2.) Hoot & Holler Hideout
3.) Laughing Place Restaurant & Country Store (see above)
4.) Pooh's Thotful Spot
Discoveryland
Discoveryland is basically the same as Tomorrowland, with a dash of EPCOT and more staying power, since the Tomorrowland concept often has been in need of updating! In fact, the name Discoveryland is used at Disneyland Paris for Tomorrowland.
Rides and Attractions:
1.) Astro-Orbiter
2.) Autopia (FP): which will have a track design much like Disneyland's current Autopia track, but with wider lanes like WDW's Indy Speedway.
3.) Buzz Lightyear's Astro-Blasters (FP)
4.) Cosmic Waves
5.) Discoveryland PeopleMover
6.) Discoveryland Theatre
7.) The Earth: This is a completely original attraction, which gives guests a visual and interactive journey through the Earth's wonders, with an emphasis on people and animals' relationship with the Earth on which they live. The Earth is somewhat like EPCOT's The Land, but with little or no emphasis on food! Among the attractions inside the pavillion include, just to name a few:
a.) Behind the Seeds (or something similar), possibly with a new name.
b.) Circle of Life: This may be the same show seen at EPCOT's The Land, but I thought its enviromentalist theme would fit The Earth quite well!
c.) The Earth Ride: This is a mechanical ride which goes into The Earth's theming. I may include a few features of Journey to the Center of the Earth (at Tokyo DisneySea) into this ride, but reality-based as opposed to fantasy-based like Journey to the Center of the Earth, and MUCH less intense as well!
d.) a multi-story rain forest habitat; which includes exotic plants, birds, small animals, waterfalls, and large elaborate rock formations!
8.) Imageworks: This is basically a smaller, scaled-down version of what can be found at the Journey Into Imagination area at EPCOT, with some of the same attractions as well as many original ones. In addition to a preshow with Dreamfinder and Figment, here are a couple of attractions included here:
a.) Stepping Tones: Since this is a favorite at EPCOT, I decided to throw this in as well!
b.) The Rainbow Corridor: This is an attraction I always wanted to see, but never will since it was recently taken out at EPCOT's Imageworks, IIRC! :(
9.) Innoventions: Like Imageworks, Innoventions is basically a scaled-down version of what can be found at EPCOT.
10.) The Living Seas: which includes
a.) Carribean Coral Reef Ride (no longer at EPCOT!)
b.) Sea Base Alpha
11.) Space Mountain (FP)
12.) Stitch Encounter: This is a slightly modified and improved version of Stitch's Great Escape at WDW's Magic Kingdom.
13.) The Visionarium
Food & Restaurants:
1.) Auntie Gravity's Galactic Goodies
2.) Club Buzz
3.) Coral Reef Restaurant (inside The Living Seas)
4.) Figments View Espresso Bar & Bakery (inside Imageworks)
5.) Global Grill (inside The Earth)
6.) Lunching Pad a Rockettower Plaza (at base of Astro-Orbiter)
7.) Redd Rockett's Pizza Port
8.) Stellar Sweets
Shops:
1.) Autopia Winner's Circle
2.) Earth's Treasures (inside The Earth)
3.) Imageworks Shop (inside Imageworks)
4.) Merchant of Venus
5.) Mickey's Star Traders
6.) Planet M
Fantasyland
Rides and Attractions:
1.) Ariel's Grotto
2.) Beauty and the Beast Castle: This was determined by a poll I conducted on WDWMagic's Imagineer forum. My first choice was Cinderella's Castle, but many thought it was too similar to WDW's castle, especially given the standpoint I designed this as a U.S. park. Beauty and the Beast Castle will have a design similar to Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland Paris, but with a few differences, such as the domed ballroom on the left-hand side of the castle used in Beauty and the Beast (1991).
3.) Beauty and the Beast dark ride: This is entered from inside the castle, and located in the ballroom under the domed rotunda.
4.) Casey Jr. Circus Train: Similar to Disneyland's (Anaheim) train, but with rooftop covers on the open-air cars. Also, the animal cage cars will be larger and less confining, to allow much more comfortable riding for adults, especially large adults!
5.) Cinderella's Golden Carrousel
6.) Dumbo the Flying Elephant
7.) Fairytale Gardens, featuring Storytelling With Cinderella
8.) Fantasyland Theatre
9.) it's a small world: This ride's exterior will be designed similar to Disneyland's; with the ticking clock, spinning mechanisms, and the march of children on the hour! However, the boats will be larger much like WDW's, and the waiting area and boat waterway will have a canopy over it, with the same striped color scheme as the tent-like structure on the entrance area of WDW's ride. Therefore, we will have a tribute to IASW at both existing U.S. parks!
10.) Mad Tea Party: Similar to WDW's ride, but with a stylized glass roof over the ride, to keep rain out but allow more sunlight in; to give it a "sunnier" and lighter look than WDW's ride!
11.) Matterhorn Bobsleds (FP)
12.) Mickey Mouse Revue
13.) Mr. Toad's Wild Ride
14.) The Old Mill Ferris Wheel: Basically, this is a ferris wheel shaped like a windmill, themed from the 1937 Silly Symphony cartoon The Old Mill.
15.) Peter Pan's Flight (FP)
16.) Pinocchio's Daring Journey
17.) Sleeping Beauty dark ride
18.) Snow White's Adventures: This will probably be the most different of the dark rides in my park, since this version of Snow White will focus more on the story of Snow White and Snow White herself, rather than the Witch. Also, instead of handing the poisoned apple to the riders, the Witch hands it to Snow White. This version will be MUCH less intimidating to younger children than WDW and Disneyland's versions; the scenes where the Queen turns into the Witch and where the Witch hands Snow White the apple might unnerve some younger children, but this ride will be nowhere nearly as terrifying as the other park's Snow White rides, as well as focusing on the character of Snow White!
19.) Storybook Land Canal Boats
Food & Restaurants:
1.) Captain Hook's Codfish & Chips: which is modeled after a British fish & chips spot, with a Captain Hook/Peter Pan theme!
2.) Lumière's: This is the castle's restaurant, similar to Cinderella's Royal Table at WDW's Magic Kingdom, located on the castle's 2nd floor. Lumière's also features a character breakfast each morning; in which guests are joined inside the dining hall by Belle, Cinderella, Snow White, Aladdin, Jasmine, and Peter Pan. In addition, Sleeping Beauty greets guests in the lobby.
3.) Mrs. Potts' Cupboard: located on the 1st floor of the castle, right by the castle's entrance into Fantasyland.
4.) Pinocchio's Village Haus: Like its Disneyland and WDW counterparts, Pinocchio's Village Haus is a fast-food type restaurant; serving hamburgers, hot dogs, french fries, personal pizzas, and grilled turkey sandwiches.
5.) Pleasure Island Candies
6.) Scuttle's Landing
7.) The Old Mill Snack Corner
8.) 3 Faries Confectionary: This is a candy/sweet shop named for the 3 good faries from Sleeping Beauty; Flora, Fauna, and Merriweather.
9.) Toad Hall Refreshments
Shops:
1.) Belle's Gallery: located inside the castle
2.) Fantasy Faire Gifts
3.) The Glass Slipper: which sells glass items as well as various Cinderella-themed merchandise. The Glass Slipper also features glass-blowing, which is demonstrated for the guests by talented glass-blowers as they sculpt their glass structures.
4.) Heraldry Shop: located inside the castle.
5.) it's a small world toy shop
6.) Le Petit Chalet Gifts: located at the base of the Matterhorn
7.) Merlin's Magic Shop
8.) Seven Dwarfs Mining Company
9.) Sir Mickey's
10.) Tinker Bell's Treasures
Frontierland
Rides & Attractions:
1.) Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (FP)
2.) Diamond Horseshoe Saloon, presenting Diamond Horseshoe Saloon Revue: which is a Western-style saloon show, complete with Can-Can dancers!
3.) Fantasmic!: Like Disneyland's Fantasmic! show, this will be presented on the Rivers of America, complete with the Peter Pan segment on the Sailing Ship Columbia and the grand finale with all the characters from the show on the Riverboat, doubling as the Steamboat Willie! However, Fantasmic! will have a stadium-like seating area in front of the stage like Disney-MGM's Fantasmic, giving guests the best of both worlds!
4.) Frontierland Jail
5.) Frontierland Riverboat
6.) Frontierland Shootin' Arcade
7.) Legends of the Old West
8.) Rafts to Pocahontas Island
9.) Sailing Ship Columbia
Food & Restaurants:
1.) Chuck Wagon: serving Turkey Legs

5.) Old Time Photo: where guests are given the opportunity to dress up in period clothing and have their pictures taken wearing them!
6.) Pioneer Mercantile
7.) Trail Creek Shop
Pocahontas Island (part of Frontierland):
Pocahontas Island is the big island surrounded by the Rivers of America, themed to the 1995 Disney feature film.
Attractions:
a.) 17th Century Jamestown Settlement re-creation
b.) Enchanted Glade Forest Exploration Area, complete with a talking Grandmother Willow tree!
c.) Indian Village: which includes the Ceremonial Dance Circle; where REAL Indians/Native Americans demonstrate their native dances for the guests!
Last but not least, Pocahontas Island includes a "meet & greet" area; where Pocahontas, John Smith, meeko, and Governor Ratcliffe greet guests!
Food & Restaurants:
1.) Enchanted Glade: This is a snack stand by the Enchanted Glade Forest.
2.) John Smith's Landing: This is the Pocahontas Island restaurant, much like Aunt Polly's Dockside Inn is to Tom Sawyer Island at WDW's Magic Kingdom. The menu, although not yet established, will be more like that of a regular restaurant, as opposed to Aunt Polly's-- which seems to serve primarily snack-type foods such as peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, pickles, cookies, and ice cream.
Shops:
1.) Indian Trading Post: which is located in the Pocahontas Island Indian Village.
Mickey's Toontown:
Rides & Attractions:
1.) Chip 'n Dale's Treehouse
2.) Donald's Boat: This boat sits on real water, not a blue plastic pad used at Disneyland and WDW's Magic Kingdom!
3.) Goofy's Barnstormer: located at Goofy's Wiseacre Farm, and actually has live plants growing under it!
4.) Goofy's Gas
5.) Jolly Trolley
6.) Ludwig Von Drake's House of Genius: This is an interactive learning area based on Ludwig Von Drake's laboratory.
7.) Mickey's House
8.) Mickey's Movie Barn: which consists of The Prop Department, stocked with various props and costumes from Mickey's cartoons; The Screening Room, where Mickey's cartoons are screened; as well as the Soundstage Room, where Mickey meets and greets guests, complete with photo and autograph opportunities! This is basically the same as its Disneyland counterpart, and can only be entered from Mickey's House.
9.) Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin (FP)
10.) Scrooge McDuck's Money Bin: This is a play area based on Scrooge McDuck's immense money bin!
11.) Toontown City Hall: This is primarily a character greeting area, with three rooms where various Disney characters meet and greet guests!
12.) Toontown Courthouse, featuring Toontown Courtroom: This is a 3-D CGI cartoon much like Mickey's Philharmagic, but with an interactive twist, in which Roger is the judge, Goofy is the baliff, and YOU in the audience are the jury!!!!!
13.) Toontown Post Office: where various Disney characters have their own post offices, in which they can be heard speaking as their mailboxes are opened!
Food & Restaurants:
1.) Clarabelle's Frozen Yogurt
2.) Daisy's Snack Wagon
3.) Dinghy Drinks
4.) Goofy's Free-Z-Time: Located in a vacation trailer on Goofy's Wiseacre Farm by the Barnstormer, Goofy's Free-Z-Time dispenses large frozen slurpy drinks.
5.) Huey, Dewey, and Louie's Goodtime Café
6.) Mickey's Trailer
7.) Pluto's Dog House: similar to its Disneyland counterpart, but housed in a separate building shaped like a dog house! Pluto's Dog House serves hot dogs, chicken nuggets, french fries, and Pluto's Crispie Treats (which are basically Rice Krispies treats shaped like dog bones).

PARADES:
1.) Afternoon Parade: Not sure, even though I am kind of partial to the snowglobes at the Share a Dream Come True parade at WDW's MK, and I'm not to familar with Disneyland's Parade of Stars. However, I'm sure that this parade will be something entirely different anyway!
2.) Night Time Parade: Main Street Electrical Parade, but a slightly updated version; with better, more up-to-date floats and fiberoptic lights!
I will post maps of my Magic Kingdom lands in a reply to this post, and try to have my list of rides and attractions for Disney Studios up ASAP. If anyone has questions, comments, and/or suggestions, please feel free to post! :)

I have here my maps of Main Street, USA in my Magic Kingdom park in my proposed Disney theme park resort. The first map lists rides and attractions, whereas the second inducates shops and restaurants.
Once again, Liberty Street is actually part of Main Street, USA, but with many of the same attractions as Liberty Square, and not a separate land like Liberty Square. IIRC, this was Walt Disney's original idea for Liberty Street, which he had planned for Disneyland as far back as 1956, but never was built and eventually evolved into Liberty Square at WDW's magic Kingdom.
Here is my current list of rides and attractions for Main Street, USA:

1.) City Hall
2.) The Disney Gallery

Before I get to the rest of my Magic Kingdom-like theme park, I will post my drawing of the park's central hub:
http://photoalbums.wdwmagic.com/data/500/8327Magic_Kingdom_Central_Hub3-med.jpg
FYI, my theme park map drawings were created with the Paint program from Microsoft Windows, in case anyone is wondering! Just thought you'd like to know! :wink:

I have here my Adventureland map renderings. Once again, the first map lists rides and attractions, while the second lists shops and restaurants.
Here is a key to the rides and attractions:
http://photoalbums.wdwmagic.com/data/500/8327adventureland4x-med.jpg
1.) Adventureland Theatre
2.) Enchanted Tiki Room
3.) The Haunted Mansion
4.) Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Crystal Skull: This is basically an enhanced and more elaborate Indiana Jones ride from Disneyland's, with a slightly different storyline. This Indiana Jones ride is at Tokyo DisneySea.
5.) Jungle Cruise
6.) Magic Carpets of Aladdin
7.) Pirates of the Carribean: This POTC ride is similar to the extended version seen at Disneyland, which runs for about 14 minutes. WDW's POTC ride runs for about 9 minutes.
8.) Tarzan's Treehouse
Here is what I have for my Adventureland shops & restaurants:
http://photoalbums.wdwmagic.com/data/500/8327adventurelandS_R2x-med.jpg
Food & Restaurants:
A.) Aloha Isle
B.) Blue Bayou Restaurant
C.) Café Orléans
D.) Crystal Palace Restaurant: Once again, despite it's Main Street, USA location by the central hub, Crystal Palace can also be entered from Adventureland in the back. Crystal Palace offers character meals at Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner; where guests are joined by Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Rabbit, and Eeyore at all 3 meals!
E.) Hakuna Matada Restaurant
F.) Le Petite Patisserie
G.) Mint Julep Bar
H.) Royal Street Veranda
I.) The Skipper's Galley
J.) Sunshine Tree Terrace
Last but not least, Adventureland also includes Club 33, a members-only club/restaurant which is located in Carribean Plaza. For Disneylanders out there, some of the names of the shops and restaurants in Carribean Plaza probably sound familiar. This is since I modeled my Carribean Plaza after New Orleans Square! The main difference is that mine is called Carribean Plaza, like the area at WDW's Magic Kingdom, and is part of Adventureland; unlike Disneyland's, which is a separate land. Tokyo Disneyland modeled their Carribean Plaza (also part of Adventureland) after New Orleans Square as well! WDW's Carribean Plaza has a Carribean fort-like design instead.
Shops:
1.) Agrabah Bazaar
2.) Cristal D'Orléans
3.) House of Treasure
4.) Indiana Jones Adventure Outpost
5.) Island Supply Company
6.) Jewel of Orleans
7.) La Mascarade
8.) La Parfumerie
9.) Le Bat En Rouge
10.) Le Gourmet
11.) L'Ornement Magique
12.) South Seas Traders
13.) Tropical Imports
If anyone has questions, comments, and/or suggestions, please feel free to post! :)

Here are my map renderings of Frontierland and Critter Country. The letters and numbers representing Frontierland's restaurants and shops on my maps are the large ones, while Critter Country's are indicated by the smaller letters and numbers.
The tiny square which appears broken off from the building between the jail and the gallery was no mistake. This part of the buiding is displayed as the Town Hall, which is just a façade, much like the Town Hall in WDW's Frontierland!
Here is a key to the rides and attractions:
FRONTIERLAND:
1.) Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
2.) Diamond Horseshoe Saloon, presenting Diamond Horseshoe Saloon Revue: which is a Western-style saloon show, complete with can-can dancers!
Here is a music file of what you would hear during that particular segment of the show:
This song is entitled The Can-Can, which was composed by Jacques Offenbach for Orpheus In the Underworld, but the song was made famous at the Moulin Rouge theatre in Paris, which its Can-Can dancers are world-famous for!
3.) Disneyland Railroad station
4.) Fantasmic!: Like Disneyland's Fantasmic! show, this will be presented on the Rivers of America, complete with the Peter Pan segment on the Sailing Ship Columbia and the grand finale with all the characters from the show on the Riverboat, doubling as the Steamboat Willie! However, Fantasmic! will have a stadium-like seating area in front of the stage like Disney-MGM's Fantasmic, giving guests the best of both worlds! Here is a midi file of the Fantasmic! theme music:
5.) Fantasmic! seating
6.) Frontierland Jail: Note that I placed Town Hall (façade) next to the jail, which I thought was appropriate!
7.) Frontierland Shootin' Arcade
8.) Legends of the Old West
9.) Lillian Marie Riverboat: which is named in honor of Walt Disney's wife Lillian Disney!
10.) Pocahontas Island: similar to Tom Sawyer Island, Pocahontas Island, which is themed to the 1995 Disney feature film, includes the following:
a.) 17th Century Jamestown settlement re-creation
b.) Enchanted Glade Forest exploration area, complete with a talking Grandmother Willow tree!
The 17th Century Jamestown settlement and Enchanted Glade Forest are exploration/play areas, much like the ones on Tom Sawyer Island. However, the next major part of the island is something entirely different!
c.) Indian Village: which includes the Ceremonial Dance Circle; where REAL Indians/Native Americans demonstrate their native dances for the guests!
The Indian Village is very much like the one which was at Disneyland from 1956-71:
Last but not least Pocahontas Island includes a "meet & greet" area for the Pocahontas characters (Pocahontas, John Smith, meeko, Ratcliffe, etc.) of their own!
11.) Rafts to Pocahontas Island
12.) Sailing Ship Columbia
CRITTER COUNTRY:
1.) Brother Bear's Explorer Canoes
2.) Country Bears Jamboree: which presents 3 different shows seasonally!:
a.) Christmas Hoedown (from Thansgiving Day to January 1)
b.) Vacation Hoedown (from Memorial Day to Labor Day)
c.) Country Bears Hoedown (during the rest of the year)
3.) It's Tought To Be a Bug
4.) Splash Mountain
5.) The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
6.) Teddi Berra's Swingin' Arcade
Here are my shops and restaurants for Frontierland and Critter Country.
Once again, the letters and numbers representing Frontierland's restaurants and shops on my map are the large ones, while Critter Country's are indicated by the smaller letters and numbers.
FRONTIERLAND:
Food & Restaurants:
A.) Chuck Wagon (turkey legs)
B.) Diamond Horseshoe Saloon (which serves lunch during its midday shows, as well as snacks throughout the day)
C.) Enchanted Glade: This is a snack stand on Pocahontas Island. Enchanted Glade, along with the other shops & restaurants on Pocahontas Island, may or may not be listed in their actual locations. I only indicated that these were located on the island and not mainland Frontierland.
D.) John Smith's Landing: This is the Pocahontas Island restaurant, much like Aunt Polly's Dockside Inn is to Tom Sawyer Island at WDW's Magic Kingdom. The menu, although not yet established, will be more like that of a regular restaurant; as opposed to Aunt Polly's, which seems to primarily serve snack-type foods such as peanut butter & jelly sandwiches, pickles, cookies, and ice cream.
E.) Pecos Bill Cafe

Here is what I have for Fantasyland:
Rides and Attractions
http://photoalbums.wdwmagic.com/data/500/8327Fantasyland4x-med.jpg
1.) Ariel's Grotto
2.) Beauty and the Beast dark ride: this is entered from inside the castle and located in the ballroom under the left-hand side rotunda of the castle.
3.) Casey Jr. Circus Train: In comparison to Disneyland's Casey Jr., the open-air cars with have rooftop-like covers much like the railroad cars. Also, these and the animal cage cars will be larger and less confining, to allow much more comfortable riding for adults, especially large adults!
In addition, Casey Jr. I decide to modify the ride's opening a bit. If anyone has ever seen Dumbo (1941) before, when Casey Jr. exclaims "All Aboard! Let's Go!", that's not the actual "All Aboard" call for the train, but Casey's response to it! Disneyland's Casey Jr. Circus Train, however, uses Casey's response alone in the beginning. I decided to make mine more true to the animated movie, by adding the actual "All Aboard" call before Casey Jr. answers it! For the actual "All Aboard" call, I will use the recording of voice actor Thurl Ravenscroft (voice of Tony the Tiger, among other things!) used on Disneyland's Railroad, which is followed of course by Casey Jr. tooting "All Aboard! Let's Go", and then the train takes off!
WDW's Railroad uses a live "All Aboard" call from the train conductor. I was going to use the same for the railroad in my MK park, thus giving mine the best of both worlds; using a live call for the railroad's train and the recording for Casey Jr. Circus Train! :D
Last but not least, Storybook Land itself will have character miniatures with the structures; such as Pinocchio, Geppetto, and Jiminy Cricket inside Monstro; and Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, Wendy, John, and Michael flying over London Park!
4.) Cinderella's Golden Carrousel
5.) Dumbo the Flying Elephant
6.) Fairytale Gardens, presenting Storytime with Cinderella: This is similar to the storytelling show with Belle at WDW's Magic Kingdom, except this time Cinderella tells her story and joins a group of children from the audience, acting out parts from Cinderella. After the show, a "meet and greet" with Cinderella and the audience menbers takes place!
7.) Fantasyland Theatre:
8.) it's a small world: Once again, this ride's exterior is designed similar to Disneyland's; with the ticking clock, spinning mechanisms, and the march of children on the hour!
However, the boats will be larger like WDW's, and the waiting area and boat waterway will have a canopy over it, which will have the same striped color scheme as the tent-like structure on the entrance area of WDW's ride. Therefore, we will have a tribute to IASW at both existing parks!
9.) Mad Tea Party: This is similar to WDW's ride, but has a stylized glass roof over the ride, to keep rain out but allow more sunlight in; giving this ride a "sunnier" and lighter look than the darker bumper-car like roof on WDW's Mad Tea Party ride!
10.) Matterhorn Bobsleds
11.) Mickey Mouse Revue:
This is an animatronic musical orchestra of Disney characters with Mickey as conductor, much like the former WDW Magic Kingdom show which was moved to Tokyo Disneyland in 1983. My theme park's Mickey Mouse Revue will be updated quite a bit, with more up-to-date animatronics, and a few new characters, such as:
-- Sebastian from The Little Mermaid, with his seashell drums
-- Esmerelda from The Hunchback of Notre Dame, with her tamborine
-- Peter Pan, with his Pan flute: I know he's not a new character, but I find it quite surprising this was not included on the original ride!
More about Mickey Mouse Revue can be found at:
http://home.cfl.rr.com/omniluxe/mmr.htm
12.) Mr. Toad's Wild Ride
13.) The Old Mill Ferris Wheel: This is a ferris wheel shaped like a windmill, themed to the 1937 Silly Symphony cartoon The Old Mill
14.) Peter Pan's Flight
15.) Pinocchio's Daring Journey
16.) Sleeping Beauty dark ride
17.) Snow White's Adventures: This will probably be the most different of the dark rides in my park, since this version of Snow White will focus much more on the story of Snow White rather than the Witch. Also, instead of handing the poisoned apple to the riders, the witch hands it to Snow White. This version will be MUCH less intimidating to young children than WDW and Disneyland's versions; the scenes where the Queen turns into the Witch and where the Witch hands Snow White the apple might unnerve some younger children, but the ride will be nowhere near as terrifying as the other parks' Snow White rides, as well as focusing on the character of Snow White!
18.) Storybook Land Canal Boats
Here is my list of shops and restaurants for Fantasyland, as indicated on the map below:
Food & Restaurants:
A.) Captain Hook's Codfish & Chips: which is modeled after a British Fish and Chips spot, with a Hook/Peter Pan theme.
B.) Lumière's: This is the castle's restaurant, similar to Cinderella's Royal Table at WDW, located on the castle's 2nd floor. Lumière's also features a character breakfast each morning; in which guests are joined by Belle, Cinderella, Snow White, Aladdin, Jasmine, and Peter Pan. In addition, Princess Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) greets guests in the lobby.
C. Mrs. Potts' Cupboard: located on the 1st floor of the castle, right by the castle's entrance into Fantasyland.
D. Pinocchio's Village Haus: Like iits Disneyland and WDW counterparts, Pinocchio's Village Haus is a fast-food type restaurant; serving hamburgers, hot dogs, french fries, personal pizzas, and grilled turkey sandwiches.
E.) Scuttle's Landing
F.) The Old Mill Snack Corner
G.) 3 Faries Confectionery: This is a candy/sweet shop named for the 3 good faries from Sleeping Beauty; Flora, Fauna, and Merriweather.
H.) Toad Hall Refreshments
Shops:
1.) Belle's Gallery: located inside the castle.
2.) Fantasy Faire Gifts
3.) The Glass Slipper: which sells glass items as well as various Cinderella-themed merchandise. The Glass Slipper also features glass-blowing, which is demonstrated for the guests by talented glass-blowers as they sculpt their glass structures.
4.) Heraldry Shop: located inside the castle
5.) it's a small world toy shop
6.) Le Petit Chalet Gifts: located at the base of the Matterhorn
7.) Merlin's Magic Shop
8.) Seven Dwarfs Mining Company
9.) Sir Mickey's
10.) Tinker Bell's Treasures
If anyone has questions, comments, and/or suggestions, please feel free to post! :)

Here is my map with rides and attractions for Discoveryland:
http://photoalbums.wdwmagic.com/data/500/8327Discoveryland4X-med.jpg
1.) Astro-Orbiter
2.) Autopia: This is not the actual track design, just a rough estimate of the area that this ride will cover. I am leaning toward a track layout and setup similar to Disneyland's Autopia (current 2000-present track), but with wider track lanes like WDW's Indy Speedway.
3.) Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin
4.) Cosmic Waves
5.) Discoveryland PeopleMover
6.) Discoveryland Railroad Station
7.) Discoveryland Theatre
8.) The Earth: The Earth is a completely original attraction, which gives guests a visual and interactive journey through the Earth's wonders, with an emphasis on people and animals' relationship with the Earth on which they live. The Earth is somewhat like EPCOT's The Land, but with little or no emphasis on food! Among the attractions include:
a.) Behind the Seeds (or something similar), possibly with a new name. (can anyone think of a new name?) The small rectangles in a row below the building are actually rows of greenhouses.
b.) Circle of Life: This may be the same show seen at The Land, but I included it here since it fits The Earth's theming very well!
c.) The Earth Ride: This is a mechanical ride which goes into The Earth's theming. I may incorporate a few features of Journey to the Center of the Earth into this ride!
d.) a multi-story rain forest habitat, which includes exotic plants, birds, small animals, waterfalls, and large elaborate rock formations!
9.) Imageworks: This is basically a smaller, scaled-down version of the Imageworks area at EPCOT's Journey Into Imagination, which some of the same attractions as well as a number of original ones. In addition to a preshow with Dreamfinder and Figment, here are a couple of attractions which will be included here:
a.) Stepping Tones: Since this is a favorite at EPCOT, I decided to throw this in as well!
b.) The Rainbow Corridor: This is an attraction I always wanted to see, but never will since it was recently taken out, IIRC! :(
http://www.mickey-mouse.com/images/epcotiwmakingfaces.gif
The rainbow corridor is seen in the background of this photo.
10.) Innoventions: Like Imageworks, Innoventions is basically a scaled-down version of what can be found at EPCOT.
11.) The Living Seas: which includes
a.) Carribean Coral Reef Ride (no longer at EPCOT!)
b.) Sea Base Alpha
http://www.mickey-mouse.com/images/epcotlivingseas3.gif
http://www.mickey-mouse.com/images/epcotlivingseas5.gif
http://www.mickey-mouse.com/images/epcotlivingseas6.gif
12.) Space Mountain: This Space Mountain ride will be 141 feet tall and 200 feet in diameter (WDW's is 183 feet X 300 feet and Disneyland's is 117 feet X 200 feet), and use the exterior design of Space Mountain at Disneyland Paris, which includes the metallic gold roof with turquoise trim and neon lights; but with no external launch tunnel that goes up the roof, since it didn't fit my Space Mountain's track layout at all! This was chosen, since EVERY other Space Mountain has the same white roof with plain, white beams (Disneyland's was repainted white earlier this year after being turquoise, gold, and bronze for 6 years, and Hong Kong Disneyland's SM will be white as well; modeled directly after Disneyland and Tokyo Disneyland's ride). Also, the Disneyland Paris exterior design would fit in MUCH better with the EPCOT Future World-like attractions I have in Discoveryland!
http://www.mickey-mouse.com/images/dlpspacemtn2.jpg
http://www.mickey-mouse.com/images/dlpspacemtn4.jpg
The track layout will be basically the same as Disneyland's (and Tokyo Disneyland's) ride (a longer single-track ride with side-by-side seating as opposed to WDW's 2 tracks and in-line seats), but with a few of the less-intense features of Disneyland Paris' Space Mountain track; for example, the ride through asteriods! The ride's intensity will remain the same as Disneyland's, however, since Space Mountain at Disneyland Paris seems a bit intense to fit into a Magic Kingdom-like park to me, particularly in a U.S. theme park.
13.) Stitch Encounter: This is a slightly modified and improved version of Stitch's Great Escape at WDW's Magic Kingdom.
14.) The Visionarium: This a great 360° cinema where you travel the world with Jules Verne and the Timekeeper, an animatronic character who narrates you through the adventure. Basically, this is a much superior version of The Timekeeper at WDW's Magic Kingdom!
Here are my lists of shops and restaurants for Discoveryland:
http://photoalbums.wdwmagic.com/data/500/8327DiscoverylandS_R3x-med.jpg
Food & Restaurants:
A.) Auntie Gravity's Galactic Goodies
B.) Club Buzz
C.) Coral Reef Restaurant (inside The Living Seas)
D.) Figment's Espresso & Bakery (inside Imageworks)
E.) Global Grill (inside The Earth):
F.) Lunching Pad a Rockettower Plaza (at base of Astro-Orbiter)
G.) Redd Rockett's Pizza Port
H.) Stellar Sweets
Shops:
1.) Autopia Winner's Circle
2.) Earth's Treasure (inside The Earth)
3.) Imageworks Shop (inside Imageworks)
4.) Merchant of Venus
5.) Mickey's Star Traders
6.) Planet M

A park outside of the parks.
Question.
If I stayed here why would I bother to pay admission to the parks? :shrug:
I think you're a little confused. These maps and lists of rides/attractions/shops/restaurants are from a proposal I created for a completely NEW Disney theme park resort, outside of Disneyland and WDW, and so far all I have listed is everything from my Magic Kingdom park; which is just one of the parks in my Disney theme park resort. I have a second park called Disney Studios, which I'll get to a bit later on, as well as Downtown Disney, 2 golf courses, several hotels, a campground, and possibly a water park as well! So far, Disney currently has 4 theme park resorts; the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, CA; Walt Disney World in the Orlando, FL area, Tokyo Disneyland in Japan; Disneyland Paris; and a 5th is under construction in Hong Kong. Two more Disney theme park resorts are proposed for Shanghai, China, and Seoul, S. Korea.
As for park admission, I'm sure there would be an admission charge to mine as well, if/when Disney would ever actually build this park! :)

I have here my map for Mickey's Toontown. Since Toontown is small, I was able to list rides, attractions, shops, and restaurants on one map! Here is my map, with what I have there:
http://photoalbums.wdwmagic.com/data/500/8327Mickey_s_Toontown5x-med.jpg
1.) Chip 'N Dale's Treehouse
2.) Courthouse, featuring Toontown Courtroom: This is an 3-D CGI cartoon much like Mickey's Philharmagic, but with an interactive twist, in which Roger is the judge, Goofy is the bailiff, and YOU in the audience are the jury!
3.) Disneyland Railroad Station
4.) Donald's Boat: This boat sits on real water, unlike the blue plastic pad used at Disneyland and WDW!
5.) Goofy's Barnstomer: located at Goofy's Wiseacre Farm, and actually has live plants growing under it!
http://www.mickey-mouse.com/images/wdwgoofysbarnstormer1.jpg
http://www.mickey-mouse.com/images/wdwgoofysbarnstormer2.jpg
6.) Goofy's Gas
7.) Jolly Trolley
http://www.mickey-mouse.com/images/dljollytrolley.jpg
8.) Ludwig Von Drake's House of Genius: which is an interactive learing center based on Ludwig Von Drake's laboratory.
9.) Mickey's House
http://www.mickey-mouse.com/images/dlmickeyshouse.jpg
10.) Mickey's Movie Barn: which consists of The Prop Department, stocked with various props and costume from Mickey's cartoons; The Screening Room, where Mickey's cartoons are screen; as well as the soundstage room where Mickey meets and greets guests, complete with photo and autograph opportunities! This is basically the same as its Disneyland counterpart, and can only be entered from Mickey's House.
11.) Mickey's Toontown Fountain
12.) Minnie's House
13.) Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin
http://www.mickey-mouse.com/images/dlrogerrabbitscts.gif
14.) Roger's Fountain
15.) Scrooge McDuck's Money Bin: This is a play area based on Scrooge McDuck's immense money bin.
16.) Toontown City Hall: This is primarily a character greeting area, with three rooms where various Disney characters meet and greet guests!
17.) Toontown Post Office: where various characters have their own post boxes, in which they can be heard speaking as their mailboxes are opened!
The areas marked with an F contain various façades, such as the Toontown School and 3rd Little Piggy Bank, for example.
Here is my list of shops and restaurants:
Food & Restauants:
A.) Clarabelle's Frozen Yogurt
B.) Daisy's Snack Wagon
C.) Dinghy Drinks
D.) Goofy's Free-Z-Time: Located in a vacation trailer parked on Goofy's Wiseacre Farm by the Barnstormer, Goofy's Free-Z-Time dispenses large frozen slurpy drinks.
E.) Huey, Dewey, and Louie's Goodtime Café
F.) Mickey's Trailer
G.) Pluto's Dog House: similar to its Disneyland counterpart, but housed in a separate building shaped like a dog house! Pluto's Dog House serves hot dogs, chicken nuggets, french fries, and Pluto's Crispie Treats (which are Rice Krispies treats shaped like dog bones).
H.) Toon Pop: serving both regular and caramel-flavored popcorn.
I.) Toon Up Treats
Shops:
1.) Gag Factory
2.) Toontown Delivery Company
3.) Toontown 5 and Dime
4.) Toontown Fire Station: which sells a wide variety of Mickey Mouse firefighter sovenirs and a variety of 101 Damations merchandise. This is basically what is sold at the Main Street Fire Station at WDW; whereas the Main Street Fire Station in this park will still have the antique fire engine and firefighter equipment which was taken out of WDW's Fire Station (I think).

This is my drawing of Beauty and the Beast Castle from the Magic Kingdom theme park in my proposed Disney theme park resort.
http://photoalbums.wdwmagic.com/data/500/8327Beauty_and_the_Beast_castle_drawing2-med.jpg
Beauty and the Beast Castle is modeled largely after Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland Paris, but with many features and designs taken from the 1991 animated movie, such as domed ballroom on the left-hand side. In addition, the castle also takes a number of features from Mad Ludwig's Castle in Neuschwanstein, Germany; which Sleeping Beauty's Castle at Disneyland was directly modeled after, and Cinderella's Castle at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom has may features from Mad Ludwig's Castle as well. One of these features was the elaborate window pane similar to the on Cinderella Castle's at WDW and Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland, which is placed placed on the top story of Beauty and the Beast Castle as well! The upper part of the castle with this window pane was made a story higher, and the big tower was also raised higher to keep the castle in its correct proportion. A second observation balcony was placed near the top of the big tower as well (both Disneyland's and WDW's castles have two balconies on their big towers). I also placed a clock where DLP's Castle has some kind of window-like structure on the entranceway roof.
The castle's height was calculated as approximately 160 feet in height-- roughly halfway between the heights of Cinderella Castle at WDW (180 feet) and Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland Paris (142 feet). The color scheme is basically the same as DLP's Castle, as well as more fairytale-ish/unreal looking like DLP's Castle is compared to the other Disney theme park castles! I enclosed a photo below for a comparision:

I now have my night parade proposal for my Magic Kingdom park here, which is basically and updated version of Main Street Electrical Parade, which previously ran at Disneyland, WDW's Magic Kingdom, Tokyo Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, and currently runs in a modified version at California Adventure. However, the parade floats will have better, more up-to-date floats with fiberoptic lights, very much like the DreamLights! floats used at Tokyo Disneyland. In case anyone's not familiar with DreamLights!, it's a 21st century spin-off of MSEP currently running at Tokyo Disneyland. More information, along with parade videos, can be found at the following URL:
http://www.barrybedford.com (http://www.barrybedford.com/)
The updated MSEP will used the original Baroque Hoedown theme song used in MSEP and Disney's Electrical Parade at California Adventure (DreamLights! uses an orchestrated version of Baroque Hoedown instead of the original version), which will be interspersed with at various times with songs from the respective Disney films represented in the parade floats. Here is a sound file of this tune: http://www.disneynut.com/wdw/music/msep288.ram (http://www.disneynut.com/wdw/music/msep288.ram)
The parade will run roughly the same time length as the original MSEP (approx. 23 minutes). Oddly enough, DreamLights! runs in the same time length, more or less, but with nearly twice as many floats! I'm not sure how they do this, possibly with shorter parade gaps between floats. I added a few additional float units to the parade to the original lineup, but less than DreamLights! added to theirs.
Now, onto my parade:
OPENING AND ANNOUNCEMENT
(Lights dim around parade route just before start)
[Soundtrack: "Electric Fanfare" by Don Dorsey]
A synthesized-like voice says, "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, Disneyland (name of park's location)'s Magic Kingdom proudly presents our spectacular pagaent of nighttime magic and imagination in thousands of sparkling lights and electrosynthomagnetic musical sounds, The Main Street Electrical Parade!"
["Fanfare of Lights" by Don Dorsey]
[Main Street Electrical Parade soundtrack begins, with Baroque Hoedown by Jean-Jacques Perry and Gershon Kingsley]
1.) BLUE FAIRY
For this and all existing parade units within the Main Street Electrical Parade, see the MSEP script at http://www.disneylandian.com/faqs/msep.html (http://www.disneylandian.com/faqs/msep.html) , since these parade units will be exactly the same, scriptwise, as the original parade. The new units will be described when I get to them.
2.) CASEY JR. CIRCUS TRAIN, with Goofy in the engine cab, pulling a big drum that alternates between saying "Disneyland (name of park's location)'s Magic Kingdom presents" and "Main Street Electrical Parade". With the improved, fiberoptic lighting, the drum sign will be composed of numerous bulbs as opposed to the flashing neon sign of the original-- much like the DreamLights! drum float sign, in a Las Vegas-like manner. Also, the "Presents" sign will use the theme park resorts actual logo (much like the blue script-like lettering in Disneyland's (Anaheim) logo, and the red Walt Disney World logo with the "mouse ears" globe), due to the improved lighting. Mickey and Minnie ride the drum float, as usual.
3.) ALICE IN WONDERLAND: same as original MSEP, see script in above URL
4.) WINNIE THE POOH: This is similar to the DreamLights! float, with Winnie the Pooh and friends on a small float around the famous Honey Tree. This float is followed by dancers in bee costumes, dancing to the song "Winnie the Pooh", which plays as the bee dancers pass by. Here is a midi file: http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach...nnieThePooh.mid (http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach/Island/2263/WinnieThePooh.mid)
5.) CINDERELLA: same as original MSEP
6.) PETER PAN: same as original, with Hook's pirate ship The Jolly Roger, and Smee's rowboat following behind.
7.) ALADDIN: This is basically a small float designed like a magic carpet in the front an middle sections. Aladdin and Jasmine ride on the magic carpet. A giant blue lighted Genie appears in the back. With this float, the music shifts from Baroque Hoedown to "A Whole New World", and then back to Baroque Hoedown as the float passes. Here is a midi file of "A Whole New World": http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach...oleNewWorld.mid (http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach/Island/2263/WholeNewWorld.mid)
The Aladdin unit was entirely my own creation, and has never appeared in MSEP, Spectromagic, DreamLights!, or anywhere for that matter! :D
8.) DUMBO: same as original MSEP
9.) SNOW WHITE: ditto
10.) PINOCCHIO: ditto
11.) BEAUTY AND THE BEAST: similar to the DreamLights! unit, broken up into two small floats. First, we have a "desert cart" float with Lumière, accompanied by dancers dressed as waiters and waitresses to the song "Beauty and the Beast". Here is a midi file: http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach...t_Bandbeast.mid (http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach/Island/2263/BeRguest_Bandbeast.mid)
The second float replicates the castle's ballroom, with Belle and Vincent (Vincent, Belle's prince, appears in The Magic Kingdom, whereas the Beast appears at Disney Studios only, due to the presence of the post-transformation castle in The Magic Kingdom) dancing to the song "Beauty and the Beast". Here is a midi file: http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach...BtyandBeast.mid (http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach/Island/2263/BtyandBeast.mid)
12.) PETE'S DRAGON: same as original MSEP
13.) IT'S A SMALL WORLD: This is an abbreviated version of the DreamLights! IASW unit, broken up into two floats, with live Cast Members dressed at IASW dolls (face characters) in lighted costumes, singing (possibly lip-synching) and dancing to the song it's a small world. The music shifts from Baroque Hoedown to it's a small world, reverting back to Baroque Hoedown about 2/3 of the way throught the second float. Here is a midi file: http://www.pacificsites.com/~drhoad...small_world.mid (http://www.pacificsites.com/~drhoades/sounds/small_world.mid)
The second float is a combination of the sun and moon floats from DreamLights! into one longer float. Both IASW floats have various Disney characters riding them while the IASW characters sing and dance; among them, Donald and the 3 Amigos, Pluto, Roger Rabbbit, The 3 Little Pigs, Mary Poppins and Bert, plus a few others!
14.) TO HONOR AMERICA: similar to the original MSEP unit. Chip & Dale appear in front of this float, along with the All-American Girls in red, white, and blue outfits.
-- PARADE ENDS --

I now have my list of rides and attractions for Disney Studios, which is my second theme park in my proposed Disney theme park resort. Disney Studios consists of four soundstages (with room for expansion if/when the need for more soundstages ever comes up), plus two additional studios in a building together designed specifically for Television Production called Disney Channel Studios. In addition, Disney Studios will include a backlot (complete with Residential Street and Catastrophe Canyon), an animation studio, as well as the Earfell Tower, which is an actual working water tower for the studio and park, unlike Disney-MGM's oversized prop! Here is what I now have:
Rides/attractions denoted by (FP) will used the FastPass service.
1.) Cinemagic Special Effects Stage (FP): This is a live stage show focusing on special effects for TV and motion pictures; which also includes audience participation in a number of segments!
2.) Disney Sound Studio: At The Disney Sound Studio, guests add sound effects to various Disney cartoons! This is an almost completely "hands-on" attraction, unlike the Sounds Dangerous show with Drew Carey, which currently runs at Disney-MGM.
3.) The Great Movie Ride: Although similar to The Great Movie Ride at Disney-MGM, this ride will have primarily different scenes from its Disney-MGM counterpart. I was planning on having primarily different scenes from Disney-MGM's GMR. So far, the only scenes I can think of which will remain the same are The Wizard of Oz and Singing In the Rain. Fantasia will be considerably longer, with a somewhat longer sequence with Mickey as The Sorcerer's Apprentice, and maybe another short scene or two. For the other Fantasia scenes (which will be considerably shorter than The Sorcerer's Apprentice), I was leaning towards one of the Nutcracker scenes; possibly either The Chinese Dance with the mushrooms or The Russian Dance with the thistles-- or possible even both! Here are a couple of midi files of these songs:
Chinese Dance:
http://www.kidsdomain.com/holiday/x.../n/nut5chin.mid (http://www.kidsdomain.com/holiday/xmas/music1/n/nut5chin.mid)
Russian Dance: http://www.diskuspublishing.com/russian.mid (http://www.diskuspublishing.com/russian.mid)
Mary Poppins will remain as well, but with a completely different scene. Disney-MGM's ride uses the Chim Chim Cher-ee scene, whereas mine will use the Supercalafragilisticexpilaladocious musical number scene from Mary
Poppins. Here is a midi file, in case you're not familar with the song, and for your listening enjoyment even if you are! :D
http://www.momentus.com.br/sound/Jazz/super.mid (http://www.momentus.com.br/sound/Jazz/super.mid)
As for the other scenes, not sure yet. However, I will replace the Hollywood Musical scene from Disney-MGM's GMR. Disney-MGM's ride has the By a Waterfall (1933) musical number from Footlight Parade. In its place, my GMR will use the We're In the Money musical number scene from Gold Diggers of 1933. Here is a URL with song lyrics and an attached midi file:
http://www.harrywarren.net/songs/0140.htm (http://www.harrywarren.net/songs/0140.htm)
4.) The Great Muppet Movie Ride: This is basically a spoof of the Great Movie Ride; where The Muppets give riders their takes on various classic motion pictures; such as Frankenstein, The Wizard of Oz, and Peter Pan, just to name a few; aong with an original entitled Pigs In Space: The Movie. Also, about halfway throught the ride, we'll re-create the HILARIOUS scene from The Muppet Movie, where the films jams in the projector and breaks halfway through the movie! In this scene, Kermit asks what happened, and The Swedish Chef (who is also the projectionist) responds, with film wrapped all over his body! Here is a sound byte of this scene:
http://users.ev1.net/~russ3/WavFiles/chef.wav (http://users.ev1.net/~russ3/WavFiles/chef.wav)
The Great Muppet Movie Ride was in fact planned for Disney-MGM, but was put off due to Jim Henson's death in 1990.
5.) Hyperion Theatre: This is a large theater designed much like a movie palace cinema from the Golden Era of Hollywood. Hyperion Theatre presents a multi-character (using characters from various Disney cartoons together) similar (but not exactly!) to the show currently running on The Disney Cruise Line-- especially since I have heard a lot of good things about that show!
6.) Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular (FP): I know Disney-MGM has this, but I decided to include Indy since I think that this is one of their very best shows!
7.) Jim Henson's Muppet*Vision 3-D (FP)
8.) Lights, Motors, Action! (FP): This more than likely will have a number differences to Disney-MGM's and the Walt Disney Studios (Paris) show. But then, since no one has seen Disney-MGM's motor stunt show yet, who knows!
9.) The Magic of Disney Animation: This is an actual working animation studio, which produces and demonstrates for guests 3 different types of animation!:
a.) 3-D Computer Animation (hopefully, a facility which would rival Pixar or Dreamworks!)
b.) Cel Animation
c.) Computer Animation
In addition, The Magic of Disney Animation features an interactive area, where guests can learn a few tricks of the animation trade! IIRC, the animation studio at Walt Disney Studios (Paris) has an interactive area like this one.
10.) Monsters, Inc. dark ride
11.) Playhouse Disney: Live on Stage!
12.) An VERY intense indoor roller coaster similar to Rock & Roller Coaster at Disney-MGM, but with a different track layout and theme. I was seriously considering a Disney Villians theme to the ride! (FP)
13.) Star Tours (FP)
14.) Studio Tour: Behind the Scenes
15.) That's Entertainment! Hollywood Gallery: This is similar to The Disney Gallery in this theme park resort's Magic Kingdom and The Main Street Gallery and Town Square Exposition Hall in WDW's Magic Kingdom; but focuses on Hollywood and the entertainment industry in general. That's Entertainment! Hollywood Gallery includes various Hollywood-related exhibits, artifacts, and memorabilia.
16.) Tron: The Ride (FP): This ride is based on the 1982 motion picture Tron, which will be designed as a dark ride with a few interactive elements much like Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin and the early 1980's Tron arcade game-- which was also based on the movie.
17.) Twilight Zone Tower of Terror (FP)
18.) Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Play It!
As for shops and restaurants, so far I have only three restaurants planned so far; The Brown Derby, Hollywood & Vine, Soundstage Restaurant (formerly at Disney-MGM), and an additional restaurant with I thought of myself, as a tribute to one of Disney's best-known and beloved stars, who really needs no introduction! :D
Annette's will be designed as a tribute to Annette Funicello and her movies, TV shows and appearances, as well as her musical recordings and her life in general; except for the more unpleasant stuff, like her ongoing battle with Multiple Sclerosis-- read about that at the bottom of my post!
The restaurant will be deisgned like a combination 1950's soda/malt shop (complete with black & white checkered floors) and Planet Hollywood, but focusing on Annette and her career instead of the time period like 50's Prime-Time Café at Disney-MGM, since the 1950's only covered a small part of her career in the entertainment industry! The dining hall will be adorned with various Annette Funicello-related items and memorabilia, and TV sets will be placed at each table/booth much like 50's Prime-Time Café-- but showing segments from Annette's pieces of work such as The Mickey Mouse Club, her Beach Party movies, other movies such as Babes In Toyland, commercials (Skippy Peanut Butter); and even guests shots such as her appearances on shows like American Bandstand, Zorro, Full House, Growing Pains, and various Disney specials which aired over the years!
As for the menu, not sure, but it would be different from 50's Prime-Time Café, which focuses mainly on home cooking. I was thinking sort of what you'd find somewhere like Planet Hollywood or Ruby Tuesday, but also with a large percentage of Italian dishes (obviously!) on the menu. A must would be Italian Cheesecake with ricotta for the dessert menu, which was concocted by Annette's mother, Virginia Funicello, herself! This bit of trivia comes from The Official Mickey Mouse Club Book by Lorraine Santoli
Oddly enough, I recently discovered that Disneyland Paris has a restaurant called Annette's, but theirs is only a 1950's Diner bearing no relation to Annette Funicello and her career, except in name only! Very much unlike the restaurant I planned for my Disney Studios theme park.
Now that we've discussed the restaurant Annette's, let's get to a more serious subject. This is a wish I would like to make for the opening of my proposed Disney theme park resort I designed here on WDWMagic's Imagineer forum, if/when Disney ever actually builds this park. (hopefully!) My wish is that a cure for MS will be found by the theme park resort's opening day, or that at least her MS symptoms will go into remission, so that Annette Funicello would be able to appear at and enjoy my new Disney theme park resort as well as the restaurant I deisgned in her honor! Even if my Disney theme park never gets built, I still would like to have the same occur sometime soon! :)
PARADE: Disney Studios will feature a Hollywood-themed parade similar to the Lights, Camera, Action! parade at Walt Disney Studios (Paris). Like the WDS parade, this parade will use actual parade floats instead of the antique cars used in Disney-MGM's parade. One of the most memorable floats from the Walt Disney Studios parade, which will also be used here, is a giant movie projector float with Tinker Bell sitting in front of the projector's lens!
In addition, the parade at Disney Studos will include Hollywood-theme songs/show tunes such as Hooray For Hollywood, There's No Business Like Show Business, You Ought to Be in Pictures, and That's Entertainment!; just to name a few!
Last but certainly not least, Disney Studios runs the Sorcery In the Sky
fireworks show every night.
I also have here a list of possible lands/streets for Disney Studios:
1.) Animation Courtyard
2.) The Backlot
3.) Hollywood Boulevard
4.) Muppets Courtyard (which includes The Great Muppet Movie Ride and Muppet*Vision 3-D)
5.) New York Street
6.) Production Courtyard
7.) Sunset Boulevard
As for the layout, I may get started on my maps soon, but haven't come up with anything yet. One thing I wanted to do was make my Disney Studios park easier to navigate that Disney-MGM or Walt Disney Studios, and with fewer dead ends in the layout. So far, I am considering having the studios on the left side instead of the right where Disney-MGM places theirs, to make it different. Also, I was considering placing the backlot/Residential Street/Catastrophe Canyon in the back behind the studios on the left, and placing Lights, Motors, Action! in the back, but on the right side, parallel with Catastrophe Canyon. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions concerning the layout of my Disney Studios park, please post them here! All other questions comments, and or suggestions are welcome too.
I look forward to hearing from you! :)

I now have my proposal for Downtown Disney at my proposed Disney theme park resort. Downtown Disney's layout will be similar to that of Disneyland's DD in Anaheim, but a bit larger and will more room for expansion; and located on a central hub between the two parks; unlike WDW's Downtown Disney, which seems quite out of the way!
So far, my Downtown Disney has 44 establishments, 10 more than Disneyland's Downtown Disney in Anaheim, but 16 less than WDW's Downtown Disney (26 if you include the Boardwalk!) The layout will be similar to Disneyland's Downtown Disney, but a bit larger and with more room for expansion; and located on a central hub between the two theme parks; unlike WDW's Downtown Disney, which seems quite out of the way!
Here is what I now have:
DOWNTOWN DISNEY MARKETPLACE:
Food & Restaurants:
1.) Alfredo's of Rome (L'Originale Alfredo di Roma Ristorante)
2.) Baskin-Robbins
3.) Chef Mickey's: Similar to Chef Mickey's at WDW (Hong Kong will get a Chef Mickey's when it opens next year), this restaurants offers character meals at Breakfast and Dinner. Guests are joined by Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, Chip & Dale at Breakfast; and at Dinner by Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, Chip & Dale.
4.) Cinnamon Bay Bakery
5.) Earl of Sandwich
6.) Fulton's Crab House
7.) Ghirardelli Soda Fountain and Chocolate Shop
8.) Marceline's Confectionery
9.) McDonald's
10.) Wetzel's Pretzels
Shopping:
1) The Art of Disney
2.) Basin (selling candles, soaps, and bath crystals; just to name a few items!)
3.) Build-a-Bear Workshop
4.) Disney at Home
5.) Disney's Days of Christmas
6.) Illuminations
7.) LEGO Imagination Center
8.) Liquid Planet (store selling beachwear and accessories)
9.) Magnetron (selling an assortment of 50,000 magnets!)
10.) Once Upon a Toy
11.) Petals (selling a wide variety of leather goods, including jackets, handbags, and other accessories)
12.) Silver & Gold Gallery
13.) Team Mickey's Athletic Club
14.) World of Disney
DOWNTOWN DISNEY PARADISE PLAZA:
Similar to Paradise Plaza at Disneyland in Anaheim, this is primarily Downtown Disney's entertainment district, with a few shops and restaurants:
Food/Restaurants/Entertainment:
1.) AMC Theaters 24
2.) Big Easy Jazz Kitchen
3.) ¡Bongos Y Arriba! Latino Cafe: Jointly owned by Gloria Estefan and the management of Disneyland's ¡Y Arriba! ¡Y Arriba!, ¡Bongos Y Arriba! combined the best features of the two Dinner clubs, offering a global scope of Hispanic food and music from various Latin American countries!
4.) Cheesecake Factory Express (located inside DisneyQuest)
5.) Cirque du Soleil
6.) DisneyQuest
7.) ESPN Zone
8.) House of Blues
9.) Planet Hollywood
10.) Rainforest Café
11.) Wolfgang Puck Café
Shopping:
1.) Borders Megastore (selling a wide variety of books, magazines, newpapers, music, videos, and DVD's)
2.) Celebrity Eyeworks
3.) DTV
4.) Hoypoloi
5.) House of Blues Company Store (adjacent to House of Blues)
6.) Paradise Plaza Magic Shop (a magic shop, which also offers free demonstrations for the customers!)
7.) Planet Hollywood: On Location (adjacent to Planet Hollywood)
8.) Rainforest Shop (inside Rainforest Café)
9.) Starabilias
In addition, there is a monorail stop between Downtown Disney Marketplace and Paradise Plaza; as the monorail is also connected to the two theme parks and all hotels, plus the campground!
As for the nightclub district, nothing has been planned so far. Keep in my that my Disney theme park resort has been planned as more of a daytrip (ie: Disneyland) as opposed to an entire vacation destination like WDW. Also, my Downtown Disney list is for opening day, so there's no telling what else would show up here as the years go by; given profits and park attendance!
If anyone here has questions, comments, and/or suggestions, please feel free to post; since I could use your feedback!
I look forward to hearing from you! :)

This is my list of hotels which will be at my proposed Disney theme park resort as of opening day-- which will consist of four hotels plus a campground. Three of these hotels run in the Deluxe to Moderate price range ($133+ per night), while the 4th is a Value-priced resort ($77-$124 per night). These hotels are listed in order from most expensive/luxurious to least. Here is what I have so far:
Disneyland Hotel: This is the crown jewels of the hotels in my proposed Disney theme park resort. The architecture is very much like that of the Grand Floridian, but the layout is more like that of Disneyland's Grand Californian, with all rooms in one building and six floors instead the Grand Floridian's and the Grand Californian's (I think) five. The Disneyland Hotel also includes the Neverland Pool, based on the Disney animated movie Peter Pan (1953) -- similar to the pool at the Disneyland (Anaheim) Hotel, but larger to accomodate more guests. There are 600 rooms inside the Disneyland Hotel, which overlooks the Magic Kingdom theme park.
Disney's Hollywood Hotel: This hotel overlooks the Disney Studios theme park, and has a Hollywood theme to it, with somewhat of a Disney focus. The Hollywood Hotel is quite similar to the Hollywood Hotel in the soon-to-open Hong Kong theme park, but may include a few differences as well. There are 502 rooms inside Disney's Hollywood Hotel, the same number as Disneyland's Paradise Pier Hotel.
Disney's Contemporary Resort: Overlooking the Discoveryland side of the Magic Kingdom, the Contemporary Resort is similar to its WDW counterpart, but with numerous differences as well. For example, Chef Mickey's is located in Downtown Disney instead of here, and is replaced by the Contemporary Café. The Contemporary Café has a character breakfast each morning, with a menu similar to Donald's Breakastosarus, but stripped of its dinosaur/safari theming. Despite the fact that WDW has the Contemporary, I chose this since I always found the Contemporary to be a facinating building to look at, especially with the monorail going right though the building! There are 393 rooms inside the Contemporary; which is the same number that its WDW counterpart has inside the tower, as no annex wings have been built yet, obviously! :D
Disney's All-Stars Resort: Disney's All-Stars is similar to All-Star Movies at WDW, but focusing on the characters instead of their movies. This is our Value resort, with rooms spanning 320 square feet (as opposed to ASM's 260 square foot rooms). The All-Stars is broken up into 8 buildings, with 96 rooms in each building (shaped like a straight rectangle unlike ASM's T-shaped inns) on three floors, with two buildings per theme. Here is what I have for Disney's All-Stars:
1.) 101 Dalmations: even though this is the film's title, the 101 Dalmations are still the movie's main characters!
2.) Buzz & Woody's: This is the Toy Story-themed area, but the name was changed for reasons mentioned above.
3.) House of Mouse: This features the "Big 5" (Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto); along with their frequent costars (Daisy, Scrooge McDuck, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Chip & Dale, etc.). The House of Mouse also features the Duck Pond Pool, which includes a centerpiece of Donald and other duck costars shooting water pistols into the pool, much like the Calypso Pool's centerpiece at WDW's All-Star Music! There is also a small, shallower kiddie pool next to the main one. The pool sits in the middle of the cluster of motel buildings, with the main building at one end, and room for expansion at the other end of the complex.
4.) Pooh Corner: which features Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Eeyore, et. al.
Disney's All-Stars has a total of 768 rooms, with room for building more inns whenever the time comes for expansion. The All-Stars Hall is the main building; which houses the offices, food court, snack bar, and lounge/bar.
Disneyland Campground: Similar to Fort Wilderness at WDW, Disneyland Campground consists of 207 campsites, along with 108 cabins. This gives us a total of 315 "rooms", for lack of a better term! :D
The 4 hotels and the campground give us a Grand Total of 2,578 rooms/cabins/campsites combined; roughly the same number as Disneyland's in Anaheim, CA, but only about 1/12 the 30,000 rooms/cabins/campsites WDW offers within its numerous resorts! Nevertheless, I think what I came up with for a new Disney theme park resort is sufficient. If anyone has questions, comments, and/or suggestions, please feel free to post! :)

I now have my list of character meals which will be at my proposed Disney theme park resort as of opening day. Here is what I have so far:
MAGIC KINGDOM:
Crystal Palace: Similar to its Walt Disney World and Tokyo Disneyland counterparts, The Crystal Palace is a buffet restaurant offering character meals at Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. Guests are joined by Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Rabbit, and Eeyore at all 3 meals!
The Crystal Palace is located on Main Street, USA at the corner of Main Street and the central hub. Despite its Main Street, USA location, Crystal Palace can also be entered from Adventureland in the back! This would give guests the best of both "lands", since WDW's Crystal Palace can only be entered from Main Street and Tokyo's only from Adventureland!
Global Grill: Located inside The Earth pavillion in Discoveryland, Global Grill holds an Ice Cream Social with Mickey and Minnie daily at 3pm.
Liberty Tree Tavern: Similar to its WDW counterpart, Liberty Tree Tavern is located on Liberty Street (part of Main Street, USA), and offers character dining at Dinner. Guests are joined by Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, and Meeko.
Lumière's: Located on the second floor of Beauty and the Beast Castle, Lumière's hosts a character breakfast similar to the one held at Cinderella's Royal Table in WDW's Magic Kingdom.
Characters include Belle, Cinderella, Snow White, Aladdin, Jasmine, and Peter Pan (inside the dining hall); along with Sleeping Beauty, who greets guests in the lobby.
DISNEY STUDIOS:
Hollywood & Vine: Similar to its Disney-MGM counterpart at WDW, Hollywood & Vine holds character Lunch buffet from 11:30AM to 2:45PM. (IIRC, Hollywood & Vine used to have character meals, but Disney-MGM discontinued all character dining in the park). Guests are joined by Minnie, Daisy (both wearing Hollywood Starlet Outfits), Goofy (in a gangster outfit), Pluto, Chip & Dale.
DOWNTOWN DISNEY
Chef Mickey's:
Breakfast: Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, Chip & Dale
Dinner: Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, Chip & Dale.
DISNEYLAND HOTEL
1900 Park Faire:
Breakfast: Mary Poppins, Bert, Alice, the Mad Hatter, and the White Rabbit
Afternoon Tea: This is a children's activity session as well for children 3-10 years old, much like the Wonderland Tea Party at WDW's 1900 Park Faire. Characters include Alice, the Mad Hatter, and the White Rabbit
Dinner: Cinderella, Prince Charming, the Fairy Godmother, Pinocchio, and Geppetto.
DISNEY'S CONTEMPORARY RESORT
Contemporary Café: which offers a Character Breakfast with a menu similar to Donald's Breakfastosarus at WDW's Animal Kingdom, but stripped of its dinosaur/prehistoric theming.
Characters include Donald, Daisy, Scrooge McDuck, Mickey, Goofy, and Pluto.
DISNEY'S HOLLYWOOD HOTEL:
Roger's Buffeteria: Themed to the 1988 movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Roger's Buffeteria features character dining at Breakfast and Dinner, where Roger is joined by a wide variety of his Disney friends!
Breakfast: Roger, Minnie, Goofy, Max, Rafiki, and Timon
Dinner: Roger, Mickey, Donald, Pluto, Peter Pan, and Wendy
If anyone has questions, comments, and/or suggestions, please feel free to post! :)

I'm amazed at all the work you put into this. I like the idea of combinding everything. So, where would this super disneyland be?

Not rally sure. Some likely areas would be in the central U.S. (perhaps Texas or Oklahoma, due to warmer climates), or possibly even Hawaii (which I think would be a really fun location, esp. given its large amount of tourism and natural beauty!!!!!). I designed this as a U.S. theme park, due primarily to familiarity with the culture, and since it would be nice to have another Disney theme park in the U.S. somewhere! Disney currently has theme parks in Orlando (WDW); Anaheim, CA (Disneyland); Tokyo; Paris; and a 5th is currently under construction in Hong Kong. Also, Disney is considering a 6th theme park near Shanghai, China; just 550 miles from Hong Kong, and even a 7th near Seoul, S. Korea, 538 miles from Tokyo!
Disney did in fact plan a theme park in the early 1990's called Disney's America in NE Virginia near Washington, DC. Unfortunately, that fell apart. Mainly, its wherever Disney would build another theme park, particularly in the U.S., so it's lcation is anyone's guess!!!!! :D :wink:
