In this game you have to design a new ride for DLRP. Here are the rules
1)It can be any type of ride that you want it to be (e.g dark ride, roller coaster,ect)
2)It must be based something related to disney.
3)You must put which park it's going to be in.
4)You must say where in the park it will go.
5)You have to put pictures of it on here and a description of what is going to happen on the ride.
I'll go first:
Name: Monsters Inc: Door Race
Which Park: WDS
Where will it go: Animation Courtyard/Toon Studios
Based on: Monsters Inc
Type of RIde: Roller Coaster
Description of ride: When you enter the new building for the attraction, you automatically enter the world of monsters inc. The que is decorated like the Monsters Inc factory. the vehicles that you sit in carry 2 people, they are made to look like one of the doors from the film and there is are models of Mike, Sulley and boo on them. When the ride starts you enter the scene from the film where all of the doord are kept.
Here are some pictures that I have made for the ride:

this sounds a good game! But ill have to think and think and think before i reach a conclusion!
Any ideas :?:
Still thinking here... it's a great idea 8)
Any Ideas????? :roll:
I guess my Muppet movie ride could count! It's not based on a proper Disney film, but Disney do own the Muppets now...

It does take quite a while to think about something and write about it like that, so that's probably why people haven't done anything yet. Also, the Imagineering forum itself is for people to Imagineer new attractions (as well as discuss developments at WDI), so there's a bit of overlap with the game.
Maybe we could have game where someone gives the name of a Disney film, and then everyone else has to come up with an idea for how they could make a ride based on that film. The person who started then picks the best idea, and that person continues the game with the next film... What do you think?
I've got some ideas, but I would break one of the rules. I don't like it if I have the restriction to base a ride on a Disney film. Disney is much more then that, just take a look at the Thunder Mesa story, the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Pirates of the Caribbean and so on and so on... :wink:
Maarten, feel free to post any of your ideas in the Imagineering board! That's why it's there! :D
I have changed the rules slightly, your idea has to be disney related which means it doesn't have to be based on a disney film.
I'm breaking the rules and doing some for international parks... 8)
Name: Crush's Carnival Twister
Which Park: Disney's California Adventure
Where will it go: Parade Pier
Based on: Finding Nemo
Type of Ride: Sprinning coaster with dark ride section
Description of ride: The same as at Walt Disney Studios Park! Except that here it's themed as a classic ghost train-style ride.
OK, so I stole this one! :lol: Turtle Twister is actually quite strongly rumoured to go into Paradise Pier, though... :( (I guess this should be talked about in the Toon Studios topic) :wink:
Let's try another:
Name: Tron Battlezone
Which Park: Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom
Where will it go: Tomorrowland
Based on: Tron (1982)
Type of Ride: A collection of those Kuka robocoaster arms (that Legoland are currently adding to all their parks), in a setting that looks like the inside of the Tron system. You have to ride out the computer virus!
Before you guys all start to think "o no, another Splash Mountain", I first want to introduce you to the time, place and events that took place in Thunder Mesa. The theme will be completly different to Brer Rabbit. Eventually, only the track, lay-out of the mountain and the name will be the same as with the other Splash Mountains. You can easily compare this attraction to Phantom Manor and Space Mountain, two unique and differently themed rides in Disneyland Paris, which are better then their counterparts in the United States. This Splash Mountain will be no exception on that rule.
Name: Splash Mountain
Which Park: Disneyland Paris
Where will it go: Frontierland, near Critter Coral
Based on: Thunder Mesa storyline
Type of Ride: Log-flume/darkride

According to the legend, in 1853 gold was found in the Big Thunder Mountain. The mountain is protected by the Indian Thunder Bird god. When someone tried to rob the richness of the mountain, the god flaps its wings which draws lightning and shakes the earth. The mountain was holy to the indians. Eventually, when the goldfever hit their zone, the indians where chased away from their natural home and their holy mountain.
We know what happened to Thunder Mesa and their inhabitants. The story of the manor of Henry Ravenswood is well known, but also other characters like Diamond Lil', Jedediah Rose, Lavinia Rose jr. and Reverend Jared Bates played an important role. But to come back to the point, nobody ever knew what happened to the indians who where chased away. No one in the surrounding area of Thunder Mesa ever saw them back. There was just one thing the mineworkers of the Big Thunder Mining Company discovered in 1853 after they found gold in the Big Thunder Mountain; a small mountain hidden in the woods nearby. The mineworkers, and most of all Henry Ravenswood, where hoping that this mountain would contain even more gold.
Eventually, 3 mineworkers went inside the cave at the left side of the mountain, but they never returned. Everybody in Thunder Mesa heared about this mysterious event, so Henry Ravenswood decided the Big Thunder Mining Company would not go back to the mountain looking for gold. He focused on the Big Thunder Mountain insteed, and became rich. Some cowboys who lived nearby the Cowboy Cookout Barbecue heared strange sounds comming from the mountain, which was called Splash Mountain among the inhabitants. Nobody could ever solve the mystery.
Nowadays, guests of Disneyland Paris can find out what the secret of Splash Mountain is, just like Phantom Manor. It appears that this mountain was an holy mountain for the indians, just like Big Thunder Mountain. The indians burried theire relatives in the caves of the mountain, and when the 3 mineworkers where searching for gold in 1853, they woke the spirits up. The spirits still haven't found their rest, and everybody who enters the heart of the mountain (= the guest) will get kicked out (=the final splash). To make this attraction more special then the other Splash Mountains, Disney could add a pre-show area in the queue, to shortly tell the people the legend of this mountain. The attraction could contain several scenes with fog and watercurtains, projections and animatronics. Ofcourse, the attraction should not get to scary, but I dont really have an idea how to make this attraction funny for the little ones when you think of the story.
But this is one of my idea's about adding attractions to Disneyland Resort Paris. Hopefully you guys liked this one. :)
Good idea =D>
Thanks for taking the time to write all of that, Maarten! :D
This sounds like the ride of Splash Mountain with the backstory, detail and history of Expedition Everest. In other words - PERFECT! :ears:
Awesome concept full of story (soething Disney should preserve). Love the idea of Splash Mountain in DLP nd this makes it fit perfectly. You're so creative and I'd love to see bthis version over the others that are found worldwide. They are really childish!
Makes perfect sense, maybe that's something they had in mind when constructing DLRP. (why oh why do we have to be the least performing disney park :cry: )
Tnx Maarten for your great input!
I came up with an idea a couple of months ago which i thought would be a really good concept.
the idea came to me when i was talking to someone aboutthe original plan for space mountain at DLP but instead i had the idea of building a temple shaped building around or on the site where indy and the temple of peril. Inside the building would be a fully themed environment in which there would be 3 rides that are interwound each other, the 3 rides would be the temple du peril, the eye of the mara(DLR) and grizzly river run(rapids)(DLR)not necisarilly the same track layout just concept. all 3 rides would be very heavily element orientated with water and fire but also other visual effects as well.
i have some designs and plans that i drew if anyone wants to see them, just let me know and i will dig them out!
Thank you guys for all the positive feedback, it's really great to see other people liking your idea! Thanks!

Sure, I would really like to see them! Please, don't hesitate to post them! :)
i just quickly stuck them all together, sorry they r a bit sketchy.

Wow, that's great work, Maarten!!
I wanna have such a thing at DLRP, please show it to some Imagineers :)
Interesting ideas, Jon! It made me think of the Adventureland project during the late 80s /early 90s at Adventureland in Disneyland, Anaheim that never got build. If everthing would have been build as Walt Disney Imagineering would have liked, they would have build a huge building. This building would include Indiana Jones Adventure (as it can be found today on that spot), an Indy coaster like in Paris, and the Jungle Cruise would have been extended with an indoor part. I will try to find the concept art for you.
But keep going with your ideas, they're really interesting. :)

Thanks for the nice compliment! Like I said before, its so cool if other people like your idea! And if I would have known some Imagineers or even an adress where I could contact them, I would have done it immediately. By the way; does someone know how to contact Walt Disney Imagineering in Paris? Not that they design the attractions, I supose its all done in Glendale California, but still... small things in the parks like the filmposters at the Studios, Cool Post in Adventureland and the new Space Mountain Mission 2 entrance sign are done by WDI in Paris I think. It would be cool if the fans could give the Imagineers in Paris some ideas... 8)

yeah i found that the other day and using that i have redesigned the track and landscape layout! ill let u see it when ive finished!
I dont suppose anyone knows of a track layout for temple du peril that i can use?
Try sending a letter to:
EDLI BP 100, 77777 Marne-la-Vallée Cedex 04, France
:?: :?: :?:
this is as far as ive got, and i havent had alot of time to really do alot, but ive changed this version so it has an atlantian theme. ill write a description of the room i have been able to do then ill do the rest as i get time to do them.
the first pic is just a general ride layout and building outline(//http://pp.mousekingdom.com/albums/userpics/10930/normal_File0020.jpg)
i have done a concept drawing of the main chamber, i kept the rope bridge from eye of mara but thats about it! sorry its a bit scratchy (//http://pp.mousekingdom.com/albums/userpics/10930/normal_File0011.jpg) ive started on a couple of the effects that will be in there but the thing i have been working on the most in there is the statue put into the wall(//http://pp.mousekingdom.com/albums/userpics/10930/normal_File0012.jpg) water will fall down teh back of the wall but fire can also climb the wall (depending on what ride you get (ill explain later)). the part of the ride i have been working on the most is the room in the bottom left hand side of the building, this room has a series of physical effects. when you enter the room the floor times star to flick up and fall down, smoke starts coming up where the grouting should be and huge chunks of pathway will just fall away infront of the car forcing it to swerve out the way (//http://pp.mousekingdom.com/albums/userpics/10930/normal_File0017.jpg) (this pic shows the framework under the times and how they are pushed out of position and reset).
(now before i carry on the bit i was going to explain earlier, just like eye of mara this emv has thousands of different combinations and ride experiences, as i chose an atlantian themed ride i thought i would create a watery atlantis and a fire atlantis, depending what the computer decides is whether u get a fire or water atlantis) Fire or water will now fill the holes that have fallen away in front of the car and if it is the water water will rise to make it look like the water is going to come out of the hole and flood the room, explosions of water will also come out of the hole. if it is the fire atlantis huge flame balls come up through the holes and smoke and steam will come out of the holes so you cant see down them.(//http://pp.mousekingdom.com/albums/userpics/10930/normal_File0019.jpg)along the walls there are a series of blocked windows in the shape of arches, and depending on fire or water atlantis water will cascade inside the arches like a water screen or fire will climb up the back wall of the arch. at a certain point if it is water atlantis sluce gates will open and water will flood in through the top of the window with an implosion kind of effect and if fire atlantis a huge fire ball shoots out of the windows. then just when you think you are out a masive hole opens up and the car drops down to a sub level! (//http://pp.mousekingdom.com/albums/userpics/10930/normal_File0013.jpg)
well thats as far as i got so far so i hope i havent confused you all to much :?
it just occured to me that a great ride to put into the studios would be a stargate ride, possibly simulating going through a worm hole!! and as stargate is made by MGM it could be done.
I'm going to try and ressurect this topic so that the new members can play.
Any new ideas? I'd love to see some more :wink:
