Also, im sorry if you've alread started to brainstorm it, there was a typing error, it's goin to be fixes for Animal Kingdom. And here is the outlines:

1. A totally new land needs to be added (please everyone dont all do beastlie kingdom)
2. A new ride for these lands: Africa, Asia, Camp Minnie Mickey and dinoland.
3. 5 new dinning experiences and not just 5 rainforest cafes!
4. A new nightime and daytime parade.
5. Finally, a Fantasmic type show. Choose a disney animal film and base it on that or if you want it could still be Mickey, Minnie, Goofy etc.

Ok here it goes. I've pulled part from an earlier thread I had...and now I'll rush expand it...can't make any promises on a rush job.

This is something new and I may extend it but I have a lot of fine tuning to do to get it on track.....Below is the start...Let me know what you think:

Animal Kingdom Extension : Kingdom of Darconia (AKA Creature/Beastly Kingdom)

Entering the Land you will cross an Old Drawbridge through a Castle’s Front Fortress Wall. On either side you see 2 large stone Snakes at attention. Each snake at dusk through night will have fiber-optic lights in its body illuminate after a Chant (Tibet monk style) is heard from a distance. As the Chant ends the Lights on the body Flash and the Snake moves its head and tongue and it’s Eyes Glow bright yellow. The Chant finally ends and the snakes open their mouths with a large roar and fire. They then return to a static state. Under the Drawbridge we have a water moat that during the day has animatronic gators in it. At night though the Pit illuminates by fire and with and a Dragon with a long neck moves from below. All around bursts of red illuminated water (lava like) explode skyward. Now after we get through the front gate we see a Medieval Castle layout with a fair taking place inside. The Fair will have gypsies, crafts (blacksmiths, seamstress, glass blowing and so on) The fair will also have knights that battle and joust along with skills for archers and so on. At the Center of the Creature Kingdom we'll have a Transilvania looking tower that will at Night spew fire and bright beams of light and shake the ground around it (using vibrating pads under the concrete). Just off from there will be a kids ride Merlin's (from Sword in the Stone) Laboratory. Walking through the lines we see all his crazy experiments and gadgets popping fizzing and sparkeling. We are greated by Merlins voice and he welcomes us. He says since he's not in the lab right now he'll bring us to him. but in he say "don't worry you won't have to walk I'll provide the transportation for you". So as we turn the corner we hear spells being sung and large barrels, and wash tubs coming out of the closet door floating (supported in back) with seats...the next thing we hear is "let get going I can't wait here all day you know". As you you travel over the country side you see all sorts of silly little enchantments that Merlin did, like flying frogs and walking fish to teach them what it's like to be other creatures. Then you see Merlin and just as he says he wants to change us into something we would like Madam Mim crashes the scene and wants a rematch with Merlin now that she has been cured from the last time they met. Merlin appologizes and says we'll have to wait after the duel but agrees to let us stay and watch. They both Disappear on to the battlefield. We go to teh next scene we see them both changed as animal taunting each other on and shooting magic at each other. We get hit by a stray beam and it sends us spinning to
to each scene with both of them changing to different animals and sending smoke and magic streaking across our vehicle. We get hit once more and it sends us down a little valley under a bridge where a troll is going to grab us and Merlin say, "oh no you don't" and we have a burst of red light and we lift up above the troll and to safety were Melin say well Madam Mim won't bother us for a while see sort of trapped herself (left to the imagaination). "unfortunatly thats all for today I see the sun is getting low and I have places to go" so as the lights fade, Merlin twinkles away in a stary glimmer saying "maybe next time I'll transform you, so think what you might want to be". At that moment we see a wall and Merlin's face appears on the wall saying I almost forgot "Koplow!!" and we blow through a wall magically and back to were we started.


Witches and Wizards School of Practical Magic:
The Head Master greets us welcoming us to the school. He decides to have a first year pupil shows us around for an orientation. As we round the corner we have the host tell us that we have transportation to get us around the campus. Since none of us brought our apprentice cloaks they have someone getting so spares to take us around. We see a conveyer moving at the same speed as the ride vehicles dropping from the ceiling and around a blind corner. Above that blind corner an Elf is singing and zapping his wand at the cloaks then a light burst and lightning streak comes about. At that moment your ride vehicle, a petrified cloak, comes from around the corner and is floated in front of you ( supported from the bottom on a track, but the overhang of the cloak hides it). On the doors in front of you your host appears and says lets go, the school day doesn’t last all day you know…..as you float through the doors and down the hallway we see books that are floating through the air and filing themselves in the shelves around the corridor. As well as torch holders that have there flame change color as we go by. At the end of the Hall we see and open door and we are invited to come in. All of a sudden we here a group a children yell “Flambake” and a flame shoots out of the room with smoke and a rush of hot air hits us in the face…. Pausing at first you hear, “well come in already” . Cutting through the smoke we see students scattered about the room with dirty/soot covered faces, cakes splattered though out the room and areas of the room are still smoldering . The professor Xatio introduces himself and explains the mess around the room by telling us he’s teaching cooking Magic 101. He appologizes for the mess and says he wish he could talk but he needs to clean this mess up. He suggest we see the Beast Tamer’s class down the Hall since he’s doing a special presentation today. As we leave we see a laser streak come from the wand he has and its used to clean the walls. Flashes of light bounce off the walls and the cake starts to disappear in areas. You hear him say Ok now that we learned how to make a mess, lets learn how to clean one up.

Going down this corridor we pass cages of animals. We see creatures like Werewolves trying to bend the bars and squid creatures reaching through the cell bars. Fire breathing one eyed snakes and Mutated fish in murky water round-out the atmosphere. Going through the door into Professor Clovits room our host introduces us, and Mr. Clovits, being the ham for attention he is, starts to show us his Exotic collection of Saligins (snakes with small arms and hard stinger tails)….The Saligin breaks his restraint and starts to advance on us….the professor says, “Don’t move” as students start to scream and yell below us. One by one, the students say a magic word and touch the wands to there head disappearing in a cloud of smoke. Just as the Saligin is ready to sting us with his tail the professor traps the beast in a field and yells, “nice to to meet you now hurry and get out of here”. Our host says “ lets fly and get out quickly…..saying a chant and with a swish of his wand we get shot through a white flashing/strobbing tunnel that ends in a dreary Dungeon ……I host says, “I didn’t mean to send us hear”…. I’m not sure if we are supposed to be here. A giant ant/spider like creature confronts us on that note and the walls crawl with many more smaller ones….We bounce back an forth (like we are trying to shake them off). During that time we feel little bumps (like on It’s Tough to be a Bug) Our vehicle backs off the advancing monster and then zooms back at it with super speed into a green and blue hologram created in front of us and the monster. In the hologram we see the image of Merlin waving us to get out of there. He later explains what that monster was and that our host made a little error in direction to get us there. He points us to a game of magic between teachers that we may like and say “try to stay out of trouble now”…..

We cut down the hall and see some more cool tricks like walls repairing themselves and Goblin like creatures painting. They start to get out of control and start to fling paint at each other and we get in the way now dodging the splats….a few hit us (water only) and we get out of there and into a large room where we hear a rutkis. The door swings open and we are hit with a spray of water and steam (hot humid error for safety reasons). We see furniture, desks, papers, and everything thrown through out the room. All around Teachers are bickering and taunting each other. While they cast spells on one another. Our vehicle dodges electric bolts, fire, explosions, falling/thrown objects, and so on while they fight it our in the room. Some of the teachers are even turned into animal and creatures. Finally, we here a spell in the back ground as the wind around us picks up and the light from below becomes more intense. With the last word from the spell we fall through the floor (total 3 story drop) as the site in front of us then gets smaller we are shot at full speed forward. Down the corridors we fly cutting over ceiling over-hangs and dodging columns and people till we get back to our host…..He says sorry for the mess but he’s sure we’ll have a normal….or somewhat normal experience at school here in the future. As we disembark we see our vehicle go around the corner and our host says sorry to rush you out but we have some other students that need their cloaks back. With that the vehicle turns the corner and gets zap like in the beginning and is then transported up on the laundry like conveyor into the ceiling again (same as the beginning but in reverse).

Also not designed yet a water ride up the river of dispear to the (King from the Black Cauldron...drawing a blank right now). Gergi takes us up the river to help the little piggy and our hero.

Last and just for now I may re-edit this later. There will be second sub-land to this Medevil relm. An Ancient Greek-like land that opposes this will be in ruins. Here we will have the Hercules Training kids ride taking us throught his work-outs with Phil and a Battle the Titans ride. We also will see Minotars and Hades on Adventutres with Pain and Panic.....All these rides will be designed latter....In process.

As for a night show the Medevil Castle out side will be the scene of a seigh by large monsters and trolls while the Fortress will fight back. Fire arrows and catapults along with two wizards one on each size leading the armys shooting magic across the sky at each other. Still working but just need to get something on this in the contest.
