The world famous Hollywood Blockbuster has returned & this time it'll be even better now that VF's gotten new members with creative ideas. Since it's been a while since the last Blockbuster I suppose I should tell how this whole thing works. A member of VF can create ideas for Disney movies under all of the Walt Disney Company's studios (Which are Walt Disney Pictures, Touchstone Pictures, Hollywood Pictures, ImageMovers Digital, Pixar Animation Studios Mirimax Films) & each studio has certain guidelines for their films. Upon creating a synopsis & who's gonna be involved in the film it is up to them if they want to create a full-length script in the thread. Unlike previous editions of the "contest" there is no winner & it's all for fun & to show off your creativity.
Here are the guidelines for each studio:

WALT DISNEY PICTURES (The films under the Walt Disney Pictures label are films the entire family can enjoy. They can include live-action or animated films & the ratings for these films can be from G-PG-13. I'm allowing PG-13 since Pirates & Prince of Persia are under that rating.)

TOUCHSTONE PICTURES (The films under Touchstone Pictures can be a tad bit more mature than films under the Disney banner. The main focus on this studio will be comedy & can have film ratings be from PG-13-R. I should also make it clear that although these stories can be mature they must follow all VF guidelines.)

HOLLYWOOD PICTURES (The films under Hollywood Pictures can be mature films but not necessarily comedies. This studio will be where all the Sci-Fi & Horror writers can let their creativity shine. Here's a hint, now that Disney owns Marvel maybe you guys can use this studio to make films based on Marvel comic characters who've yet to recieve a film. The rating here can be PG-13-R.)

IMAGEMOVERS DIGITAL (The films under ImageMovers Digital will be animated films that will end up being co-distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. The films will be CGI with performance capture & the only catch is that all films will be directed by Robert Zemeckis since this company is his baby that he's given to Disney. Also try to push the envelope with your films since that's the whole reason Disney owns this company. The rating here can range from G-PG.)

MIRIMAX FILMS (The films under this studio will be smaller films which can range from comedy films to romance to possibly even horror. The sky's the limit will Mirimax & members will have more freedom when it comes to this studio. The ratings with these films will range from PG-13-R)

Anyways here it is! Feel free to be as creative as you possibly can, I too will be creating my own film eventually but I thought I'd let my fellow VF'ers go first! Happy writing, all!

If this show becomes a success this is were we put ideas for a Florida version. No it will not replace Fantasmic in Florida.

Okay, let's officially get the ball rolling for season six. Here's what I want from you guys. First, answer the following five questions in as detailed a way as you can, second, supply us with links to any previous work you want to show us, which can include contributions you've made to open brainstorming threads, threads you've created, things posted on different sites, personal stuff you haven't shown anyone yet but wish to post here, doesn't matter. Consider the second part of the application to be like a resume. Remember, we are only looking for ten people. (Preferably new, but we'll take returning contestants as back ups if we don't get 10 new faces, which honestly I'm not expecting to begin with.) This is a casting process. We need to do this to consider which people are the best suited for the competition, and also the answers to these questions will help us in dividing the two teams. If for some reason you don't get cast this season, do not give up, as there will be many more seasons to come. (Quiet frankly though, if you're new I honestly would consider yourself cast as long as you complete this application. I am not expecting 10 new people.) These are due by December 1st. I'll post the official cast list, divided into two teams, (as well as offically revealing the identities of the two team leaders) as well as the first project, on December 11th as planned.

And here we go...Questions

1. Why do you want to be a participant in this game?
2. What are your experiences in theme park design, be it in forums, or just personal interest/history?
3. What are your greatest strength as an Imagineer?
4. What is your biggest obstacle as an Imagineer?
5. What is your favorite theme park attraction (NOT counting POTC and Haunted Mansion, sorry, those two are just too easy) from a theme park design excellence standpoint and why?

Oh, and one more thing, if ANYONE wants to stand up and be the official game Graphic Designer, it would be greatly appreciated. It doesn't matter if you're planning on applying for the season or not. Me and MEW really need someone to do logos etc.

Here's to an AWESOME season guys Applause, Applause!Applause, Applause!

Please PM me all applications. These will NOT be shared. Remember, you guys have exactly one month.

This is were we think of ideas on the plot of the story,worlds,summons and enemies and other things.

I will go first with this world.

Worlds
-------------
Name: Pixie Hollow
Film: Tinker Bell
Partners: Donald,Goofy,Kairi,Riku,Tinker Bell
Effect in this world: When Sora and the gang goes in this world they will be Tinker Bell's size.
Music: Neverland from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days


Summons

Enemies

I was at the park recently and was looking at grizzly peak over by a bugs land. Where that huge waterfall is next to the vineyard, I imagined like a railroad track going through there. Then i started thinking that Disney could make another ride in and around Grizzly peak, like an Everest type ride. It would start where the brother bear camp thing is, that would be the queue and loading area, then it travels over the pavement walkway and goes to the grizzly river run lift and thats where the main lift hill is for the roller coaster. After it gets to the top of the lift, where the rapids lift ends, thats where the top of the roller coaster is. it could go through and around grizzly peak like thunder mountain or everest does and the "monster" of the ride could be a HUGE grizzly bear like how the Yeti is in Everest. I was jsut thinking about it, to give that area another E-Ticket ride. Thoughts?

Hi everybody,

I was trying to think a new 25 minute Mickey Mouse short based on literature.

For example:
Mickey's Christmas Carol
& The Prince & the Pauper

Then on Mickey Mouse Works or House of Mouse they did Around the World In 80 Days, A Midsummer's Night Dream, and The Nutcracker.

They even made a full length movie of Mickey, Donald, and Goofy in The Three Musketeers.

But, they haven't made a new short for Mickey Mouse since Three Musketeers. Now, I'm trying to wonder which book from literature they should do for Mickey Mouse. I was thinking that they should do A Journey To the Center of the Earth with Mickey, Donald, and Goofy. So I ask everyone for fun which book from literature that Disney can do for Mickey Mouse?

Let's Start Brainstorming a resort for Kansas City which would be located fairly close to The Legends. Let's start with Kansas City Disneyland Park as always.
I will be heading the project and anybody can pitch in. We want Main Street U.S.A., Adventureland, Frontierland, Critter Country, Fantasyland, Toontown, and Tomorrowland. I will start with the Esplanade and we will work from there. Remember this has to be the most elaborate and unique Disney Resort in the United States.

Esplanade - The Esplanade will be very different from the other Esplanades around the world. It will be most like Tokyo's Esplanade with the fact that is has the hotel behind the Esplanade and parking to the side, however this Esplanade has A large Building in front of the Main Street where the Turnstiles are in Tokyo. This large Building has ticket booths, security, and turnstiles. After you go through this building you can see the Main Street Train Station.....

Okay, let's get this thing underway once and for all. For five seasons, So You Want to be an Imagineer has been a great showcase of this board's talent and an exciting, competitive event. We've produced five great winners and plenty of all stars. In fact, before I get to season six, I'd like to take a second to anounce a new edition to my SYWTBAI Hall of Fame thread, the Imagineer All Stars. These are the people who helped shape the game and make an impression on their season. The All Stars are... (Sorted by their first season)

Season One
-Basketbuddy101 (4th Place S1, 2nd Place S2 and S3, 1st Place S4)
-Coastafreak (3rd Place S1, 5th Place S2, 7th Place S3, 8th Place S4, 2nd Place S5)
-Disneyfreak58 (1st Place S1)

Season Two
-Disneylover4ever (4th Place S2, 9th Place S4)
-Jagfkb (1st Place S2)

Season Three
-Romanarms (4th Place S3, 7th Place S4, 1st Place S5)
-MadAboutMickey (1st Place S3)

Season Four
-JPhelps (4th Place S4, 7th Place S5)
-Enlight (3rd Place S4)
-KingMickey (2nd Place S4, 5th Place S5)

Season Five
-ManEatingWreath (3rd Place S5)

Now, let's get to the game already.

As some of you may know, about midway through season five, me and ManEatingWreath decided to team up to reinvent the game for season six. I have guided this game through five sucessful seasons, and MEW is the father of the Open Brainstorming thread. This team up should produce a game like never before.

The first thing I should say is that, no matter what, there will be 12 contestants total. (Maybe less if we don't get enough sign ups, but no more.) The second thing, probably the biggest twist to the format that me and MEW have come up with, is that the game will be played in two teams of six. Each round, I will post a project, as well as individual asignments for individual people within the team to complete, making for an overall team project. (For example, if a project is to design a show, there would be a writer, a concept design, a story person, etc.) Me and MEW will judge the two projects as a whole and decide which one is better. Out of the loosing project, the element (story, art, writing, etc.) we felt was the weakest is eleminated. There will be a merge at some point, but I won't spoil the suprises of that.

Now, here is the real twist. The two teams will consist of five players new to the game, and one team leader. These team leaders are two of the biggest All Stars the game has ever seen. I will be getting in contact with both of them via PM today, but their identities will not be revealed until the start date.

As for other returning contestants. If people who did participate in seasons one through five do want to participate, they can sign up for back ups in case we don't get enough new people. I really want as much fresh blood as possible since this is supossed to be a reinvention of the game. If 10 new people don't sign up, however, I will consider others. This is a casting process, so me and MEW will be deciding based on who we think will be the best fit for the season. All Stars will have priority, then anyone else. Anyone IS welcome to sign up. If you are an All Star and wish to compete, chances are you'll be asked to be a team leader in a future season. (That is, if this twist is pulled off sucessfully). PMs will be going out to the two team leaders sometime this morning. If you did not recieve a PM, and are an All Star who wants to compete, you can still sign up as a back up, but keep in mind that there were several contenders for the two Team Leader posistions that sadly would up on the cutting room floor. As for judges, for this season I think I'm going to keep it to just me and MEW, but I might consider guest judges for certain projects, so stay posted.

Now, dates. Sign ups will start sometime in November. The offical launch date for Season Five, where I will anounce the teams and project leaders, is...Friday, December 11th.

Get ready for a whole new game. :castle:

I was thinking of creating a new attraction at Disney's Hollywood Studios replacing the aged Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular this time in the form of a trackless ride using the same technology as Pooh's Hunny Hunt & Mystic Manor. But I kinda wanna push the envelope in making it a lot more thrilling than Pooh & Mystic. This is where the VFers come into play! Anyone who wants to help come up with this attraction will stick around in creating the story of the ride, the technology ideas & finally help creating a way to market the attraction (plus perhaps an idea for an opening ceremony for the attraction featuring a ribon cutting by Steven Spielberg perhaps?) Anyways just a thought so anyone who's interested feel free to sign up.

Let's assume for a minute that we are all Imagineers, and the big suits at Disney have asked us to come up with some new attractions and entertainment for the Disney parks along with new gift shops and eateries. That means we can totally do anything we want with the parks, add attractions, subtract attractions, anything. So feel free to pitch whatever you want for the parks! :) Constructive criticism and suggestions are fine for all works, everyone gets to participate and share their ideas, so don't feel shy!

So I guess I'll start off. I've been interested in all the recent Halloween offers at the Disneyland Resort in California, so I've decided to take the concept a little farther and add some new overlays, attractions, and entertainments to the mix of Halloween Time offerings. The first thing I want to add you may ask? A new parade, but not just any old parade oh no, I want to addJack Skellington's Parade of Horrors! Once again Jack plays master of scaremonies as he brings back an entourage of Disney villains and monsters from their defeat to celebrate the "spirit" of Halloween, creating a mobile freak show! Well not as scary as a freak show, but you get what I mean. And never fear Jack has invited Mickey and friends to come join in on the fun so the parade isn't too scary. So without further to do, here is Jack Skellington's Parade of Horrors!

All is dark. A familiar organ starts humming ominously as its unseen organist pounds away at the opening to "Grim Grinning Ghosts." As the music dies down a trinkle of "What's This" plays from an eerie music box. Suddenly the booming voice of Jack Skellington shatters the night, welcoming us to his newest version of Halloween.

Jack: Welcome foolish mortals, to the world of Halloween! This year I've conjured up some new surprises for this very special holiday and I promise you, you won't be disappointed! So just sit back, relax, and enjoy the spirit of the season! Oh and one more thing. Don't forget to scream! As a matter of fact let's try that now! Ready? On three. One, two, three! (Screams) Fantastic! That was horribly wonderful! Now you just stay put, we'll get things going in just a minute!

I have to go to church now but I will add more later...

Jack Skellington Unit-

Okay, I wanted to work on yet another Disneyland, where we all just dream up stuff. The format here is basically the same as any other Open Brainstorm (except for some of MEW's because his break some of the traditional guidelines). I will post some theme parks I want to have and everything, so yeah...

1. Disneyland
2. Worlds of Adventure
3. Walt Disney Studios
4. Downtown Disney

And that's it so far, as more can be added over time.

Since Paris doesn't have a Fantasmic and because the Tokyo version inspire me to make one. I will allowed ideas for the Paris version of Fantasmic the only differences are they both english and french.

please join in.

Since late August or so, I've noticed that this particular portion of Visions Fantastic has been rather dead, or what I should say is quiet. Now I understand school has started and everyone's busy once more, no one has time to Imagineer ideas like they used to, and I can totally understand that. I've started school too and so far I am already crammed with work and little or no free time. With the school play and choir concert coming I've got barely any time to do my homework and I've been unable to visit :vf: as much as I used to. I've also noticed that I seem to be running out of ideas for threads and attractions. I mean my imagination isn't dead, heavens no, it's just I feel as if I've done everything I could possibly do on here. But then just today I realized that I haven't.

Overlooking the plans for the new Hong Kong Disneyland expansion I realized that the images and powers of our minds are endless. Anything we want can become a reality if we want it to. So that brought me to this. Picture the perfect Disney resort; or at least what you think would be the perfect Disney resort.

So what we'll do is describe in great detail what our perfect Disney resort is, from head to toe. Now we'll each do this individually and post our ideas one by one (Or if you prefer all at once) until everyone who wants to contribute has contributed. Once that is over we will take a look at everyone's projects and take the best things from each one and make one ultimate dream resort for all to enjoy. All of us will be able to contribute to this wonderful resort, and even if you aren't an Imagineer you can suggest ideas and whatnot to those who are. So why not, why not come on down and play the Price is Right? No I'm just kidding this isn't a game show, this is an Imagineering thread. But if you want to join, do feel free to do so.

So in case you don't understand what the rules are, here's what we'll do. Each of you wishing to participate (This isn't a contest or anything) will post a description of your own Disney resort which will feature really whatever you want (You don't have to have a Disneyland if you don't want to, have whatever) piece by piece. Let's say you have a Hollywood Studios at your resort. You would describe it piece by piece starting with Hollywood Boulevard, Animation Courtyard, Pixar Place, etc. If you are familiar with KingMickey's Ultimate Disney Resort thread that's kind of what it's like, post descriptions of his park's land like that. Just don't copy his ideas because that's not cool. As a matter of fact don't come in here bringing a full blown copy of an Open Brainstorming thread you've worked on before. Now I'm not saying you can't bring your favorite ideas from that thread over here, just don't bring the whole thing word for word. So if you are interested feel free to post and ask any questions you would like. I'll start posting my ideas tonight or in a couple of days. I hope to see you all then.

I'm hoping this thread will get this forum pumping again and hopefully pull in some new blood to the Imagineering world.

Forgive me if it's against the rules to try and fish in new members or try to get a forum pumping again. Just tell me and I'll be warned and punished if needed.

What Can Go With This land To Make The Perfect Area Loop. Lets Make A Perfect Loop

Hi everybody,

I just come up an idea for Fantasyland Theatre. And soon as Disneyland decided to turn Fantasyland Theatre into an indoor theatre like Hyperion, I think they should bring back Mickey's Nutcracker. Because after all, it's a very popular seasonal stageshow. And I think it could be more Broadway-style and the Disney characters can be more articulated meaning moving their mouths and blinking their eyes. Now, I don't know if it's going to bring back Roger Rabbit since Roger Rabbit hasn't been seen since Parade of the Stars. I think they should add Timon from The Lion King since WDW has an articulated Timon at the Festival of the Lion King. And Tigger can stay. Disney Live has an articulated Tigger in Winnie the Pooh Live. I think they should bring back that Christmas show as a special event with Christmas Fantasy Parade and Believe In Holiday Magic.

For those of you are Roger Rabbit fans, just to let you know that I agree that they should bring back Roger Rabbit and I really love that movie, but like I said, he hasn't be seen since he was in Parade of the Stars.

This thread picks up from where a previous thread leaves off: http://www.visionsfantastic.com/foru...n-trial-17075/. I don't want to get into trouble for bumping up an old thread, so, as per forum guidelines, I've created a brand-new one instead, to pick up where the last one left off.

I have one idea, that different Toon villains help out with the plot of R.K. Maroon, Jr. and the Weasels.

So I've noticed that Hong Kong Disneyland has a real lack of attractions and entertainment. It got me thinking and I realized that Fantasmic would make a great addition to the park's roster. But not just any version of Fantasmic, a brand-new Fantasmic with new characters, new scenes, new special effects, and even more villains like Oogie Boogie for instance (Like Tokyo, Hong Kong loves Nightmare).

My first thought on where to put the attraction was of course the Rivers of Adventure, but then I realized Fantasmic wouldn't look good in Adventureland...at all. It would also have to close the Jungle River Cruise and that would be no good since HKDL already has a lack of attractions. So my next logical choice was to put the show in Fantasyland, just beyond the berm as in the case with it's a small world. I was thinking connect the new area with the upcoming Toy Story Land and make an entire sub-land based around the new show. New dark rides would be added to the expanded area, including Snow White and Peter Pan, with a plethora of new dark rides never before seen anywhere else in the world. Fantasmic would be held in an amphitheater that would appropriately blend in with its Fantasyland surroundings.

So who wants to help?

Sorry guys my computer acted all silly and locked me up, even the title of the thread got messed up so I'm sorry. It even named the thread something I didn't want it to be named.

So I was thinking we come up with a bunch of new attractions rather than an entire theme park for one particular country. We can make new attractions for each park, so what do you guys think?

I know I created a similar thread on this some time ago on the refurbishment and expansion of Disneyland's Mickey's Toontown (http://www.visionsfantastic.com/foru...torming-23407/). But as per the forum guidelines, I'm not going to take a chance on bumping up that thread. Instead, I'm just going to create a new one. This thread picks up from where the last one leaves off.

So, anyway, Mickey's Toontown in Disneyland sorely needs some attention. I'll tell you more later...

Look at this forum. How many Open Brainstorming threads do you see? A lot, I know, and a good portion of them have been worked on for hours on end with great people and most of them just turn out so well and...well I think it's time I introduce to you the future of the Open Brainstorming thread.

Now this is just an experiment really so no one ask how this is the future or anything. I'm just testing this to see how it works.

So in most Open Brainstorming threads we usually create a new version of Disneyland right? Well I thought, what if we could each pitch our own version of the park and then combine all the best ideas into one super park? So here is what we do:

Pitch your own version of a Disneyland (Magic Kingdom) style park, or if you prefer a park not themed to Adventureland, Tomorrowland, Frontierland, or Fantasyland. That means come up with it on your own and just share what ideas you have and yada, yada, yada. Then once everyone has pitched their own version of the park we take the best ideas from each pitch and put together our own massive, super, ultimate park! So please join if you are interested.

GRR Has gotta go move it to the so called 3rd park you know the water park that will become a parking lot well my idea is change GRR to the clone attraction in the AK called Mt everest, since DCA is already getting a rehab might as well go ahead and make it happen what do you think?

I'm pretty sure this belongs here but if not feel free to move it over wherever it belongs.

Anyhow so how many of you are Legend of Zelda fans? I am. I'm a huge one in fact. Why? My mom and I beat Ocarina of Time together and we spent three years doing it, and those are some of the best memories of my life. I cried when I beat the game the first time around. Now I am so good at Ocarina that I can beat it in five and a half hours. Its sequel Majora's Mask is my favorite game of all time, simply because of how similar it was to Ocarina and how dark and emotional it was. Then there was Wind Waker, and I have to say I liked it just as much as Ocarina and Majora. But then came Twilight Princess. Not that it is a bad game or anything, but I really didn't like it as much as the older games. It just had too much free range for me, like in the other games you were restricted to certain areas while in Twilight Princess you could go pretty much wherever you want. And they made Hyrule so big that you couldn't really find anything without yelling at the game or throwing a fit. Its characters weren't all that memorable to me either, like the Gorons scared the poop out of me, the Zoras were too pretty, and the people, they looked like animals! I mean some of the people in Ocarina of Time look like animals but they're more memorable than the ones in Twilight Princess. Why? Because there weren't that many people in Ocarina of Time. In Twilight Princess there were like one hundred people in one town, and all their faces looked the same so you couldn't remember them or anything. Remember the carpenters in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask? Well do you remember the old man in Hyrule Castle Town that asks for donations to the poor? Let me guess you answered yes to the first and no to the second. But that was my only problem with Twilight Princess, it wasn't memorable to me, it was kind of disappointing to wait so long for a game and then find it was not all you were hoping it would crack out to be.

Anyhow but enough of this yick-yack, flip-flap, and jim-jam, let's get to the point of this thread.

In this thread we will be creating a new Zelda game for the Wii. Using the same kind of graphics as Twilight Princess we will make a game just as memorable as Wind Waker, Ocarina of Time, and Majora's Mask, complete with memorable characters, memorable dungeons, memorable bosses, memorable weapons, and memorable enemies. I want to steer more towards Majora's Mask in darkness and enemies while I want to steer more towards Ocarina in storyline, characters, and dungeons. I beieve we can do this and make this game one of the greatest games of all time. Possibly even better than Ocarina of Time.

Also I was thinking we go with young Link for the entire game, rather than going with adult Link the entire game. It's just young Link can relate to so many more people and young Link had some of the most memorable scenes in Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, and Wind Waker. Now it's his chance to go on the Wii for an epic adventure.

So who is with me? Who wants to make the greatest game of all time?

I was thinking that Tokyo Disneyland should have a Fantasmic show of its own! It would go in Westernland, obviously.

Now, I think we need to mix and match from both of the stateside park shows for this version, as well as create brand-new scenes especially for this version. This version, for example, like DL's, would feature the Mark Twain Riverboat near the end. But I also want to have the "dancing bubbles" sequence from Florida's show, but with new and different scenes thrown in.

Any ideas?

Okay, so I had an idea to do a thread like this awhile back, and then I looked at the Celebration of Two Anniversaries thread, which reminded me to do one. Like the title says, this is for the fifty-fifth anniversary of Disneyland, unlike the Celebration of Two Anniversaries, where they grab for the sixtieth. I think I heard from somewhere that the theme for this year is going to be the Happiest Memories on Earth just to gve us all ideas. Any volunteers??

In 2011, Walt Disney World will be celebrating it's 40th anniversary & since the 50th anniversary for Disneyland was so big, we should strive to make it as popular & inspiring as that celebration. In this thread we shall be jotting down ideas to kick off the party such as new attractions & entertainment for each of the 4 parks (we can use clones if y'all want but I think it'll be interesting by coming up with new ideas maybe some not influenced by movies, think Expedition Everest) we should also come up with a brand new parade & fireworks show for Magic Kingdom. With those ideas laid out feel free to brainstorm & maybe this will be even bigger than the 50th!

Hello all!:biggrin:

Like the recent "Tomorrowland Overhaul" imagineering thread I made, I decided to create another, but this time themed to Adventureland. I say WDW's Adventureland has lost some theming due to Aladdin, and I also think it needs some more attractions and refurbs. If we all work together we can end up making something incredible. Now, I already have some ideas in mind...

• Use some empty space we have now to make some new attractions.
• Reroute some of the Jungle Cruise to make space for a new attraction.
• Remove Aladdin's Magic Carpets.
• Refurbish and re-theme Enchanted Tiki Room to either "Aloha E Komo Mai" at TDL or something new.
• New Indy Ride? Or something else that's adventure-like.
• New full fledged restaurant with Meet and Greets.

I have a map attached to kind of sum up and give you an idea of my thoughts.

Applause, Applause!Let's begin!Applause, Applause!

Its been a year now since I created one of the first Open Brainstorming threads and now this whole forum is filled with different Open Brainstorming threads, including Disneyland Australia, Disneyland Germany, Magic Kingdom Refurbishment, Disneyland Guam, and the New Disney Resort. And quite frankly I think its time we bring together all the Imagineers of this site and make the single-greatest Open Brainstorming thread on the net. With all of our ideas we can make the greatest Disney Resort ever conceived, one that can top all the others out there and just be so unique and amazing.

I think that with all of our creative minds and forces we can put together something so great that we will look back on it one day and say, "Wow that was incredible."

So I would really appreciate if whoever reads this would please join and participate because this really is going to be the best, sorry one of the bests, and you will not regret coming in to do this. Now you don't have to join if you don't want to but I would love to get help from Disneyland DHI, Big Disney Fan, monkey4057, Jphelps, ROMANARMS, disneyman88, TrevorA, MaterA113, gurugriff100, KingMickey, alyx92, and pretty much every other Imagineer that I can. Now forgive me if I forgot to mention any of you but there are a lot of us on here and it can get confusing sometimes. But anyhow I would really love it if we all got together and made one awesome thread.

Now for the past month or so I have to say this forum has been pretty empty. No offense to anybody or anything, but usually when you post something here you get a reply about five minutes later, but you don't get one until about an hour later or so. So let's revive the Open Brainstorming threads and make them better than ever, starting with this and going on to who knows where! This will be the Ultimate Open Brainstorming Thread and this will be the first step into a new direction for this forum. So who is with me, who wants to change the future?

Honestly no offense or hard feelings towards other creators of Open Brainstorming threads. I love all of them the same I'm just trying to do something different with a new Open Brainstorming thread. Again no offense or hard feeling towards anyone or anything. I always feel bad when I make threads like this for some reason.

Anyhow I'm going to start this thread like I started Disneyland Australia. I'm going to post what ideas I have so far, and then the project will evolve into something huge and incredible.

So these are my ideas so far for the Disneyland-style park.

1. I think Main Street should resemble the one at Disneyland, only made a bit larger like the one in Tokyo. That means we will have to find a good location for the park to be crowded like it is in Tokyo and California.

2. I also think we should go with the reverse format for the park like we have done with so many other Open Brainstorming threads. It's just because it feels so comfortable having Adventureland to the east and Tomorrowland to the west, so yeah...

3. For the castle I am stumped. I'm thinking we do Snow White but I'm unsure. I feel good about it, but then I don't feel good about it. Either way it should hold a Bavarian village or a village like the one seen in the Little Mermaid around Eric's castle.

I'm hoping to feel as comfortable with this as I do with other threads so please feel free to come in and just start pouring out ideas. I don't care what they are because that's what a thread like this is for. We post and suggest our ideas, then other people comment on them and give their own constructive criticisim. I really want this thread to be more successful then some of my past threads so please come in and help. You don't even have to tell me you're signing up, just come in with an idea and we'll start working right away.

Let's do this thing! Applause, Applause!

I'm not sure where it would place itself in the many worlds of Disney, but I think a section of Disney parks set aside for the history and technology of virtual realities would definitely be an immersive experience for guests. I don't really have any specific thoughts on what wuld be contained in this new "land", it's really just a seed of an idea.

Sorry about the cheesy title, it was a spur-of-the-moment thing. Anybody else want to throw something in?

I was watching Scooby Doo yesterday (I don't do it that often, but it felt like a Scooby Doo day) and I began to wonder what it would be like to ride in the Mystery Machine along with Shaggy, Scooby and the gang. I sat and daydreamed for a bit, and then other cartoon vehicles that entered my mind: Mach 5 racer, Bumblebee, and the Flintmobile, just to name a couple. I kinda skewed from just cartoon cars, and came up with an idea for an Autopia with cars of movie and television fame. I don't know if it's been done before, but do you guys have any ideas?

Examples:

KITT(Knight Rider)
Batmobile
Herbie
General Lee (Dukes of Hazzard)
A-Team Van
MINI Coopers (The Italian Job)
Dodge Monaco (Blues Brothers)
Back to the Future Time Machine
