Actually, I don't mind if Splash goes to Westernland. I just thought that Fantasyland would be a good change of pace.

And I think your Railroad concept is pretty neat.

Does anyone have any replies for Disney's Earth? Anyhow I suggest you all by the Nightmare Before Christmas DVD real soon, the HMH segment is amazing! It features great footage of the ride and the original, and wonderful never-before seen concept art including a much better graveyard, apparently the snow angels were supposed to blast cold air from their trumpets! Anyhow I will post an overlay for the Haunted Castle soon I am going with the working title of Haunted Castle Winter Terrorland or Haunted Castle Holiday. Which one?

Well, maybe those abandoned concepts could be used in other versions of HMH, such as for WDW. And we could also use them in Phantom Manor at DLP.

What do you mean abandoned concepts? Anyhow does anyone want to go along with Disney's Earth?

No, I was referring to the scenes for HMH not used in the final attraction.

Oh ok, I don't know I have only seen a few pieces of HMH concept art so I haven't seen all of them. Do you know any?

That Disney Earth thing does sound eentelesting. As for Splash, it would be on the far left of Fantasyland's middle section (on the border). For the holiday Haunted Castle, I like the Winter Terrorland. Maybe some NBC characters could be in the graveyard (Band, Werewolf, Harlequin, etc.)?

Ok so here is the finalized title, Haunted Castle Winter Terrorland. Due to the length of the attraction it will feature a combo of the original HMH music and the newer HMH music to make one super HMH (HCWT). Anyhow I am deep into the Jungle River Cruise now I just have to add all the jokes and finish the head hunter scene which will hopefully be unlike no other, I am thinking something along the lines of the old monkey scene from Sinbad's Storybook Voyage where a bunch of evil demonic monkeys try to crush guests with giant boulders and horrible screeching, it is more horrifying then the Haunted Mansion's original attic and Snow White's Scary Adventures combined! Here is a link to the original ridethrough if any of you are interested in getting an idea of the scene. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uItkGjSK3AE

Yep, that would make your version of the ride different.

Okay, I am going to do another attraction or two before moving on to Atlantica Adventure. Then I will finish up the Great Barrier Reef, post the variation of the subs*, and an overview before moving on to Skellington Square**. I am also up for the Disney Earth concept (as will be made apparent in the Atlantica Adventure post). Also, do you mind if I do a verbal tour of DLA's Midway Mania, as I have some ideas for differentiation of it from both American versions.

*I have found a way to keep breathing purposes alright and preventing too long waits. The ride's vehicles are much like large fishbowls. Each seats eight guests facing starboard. The opening rests above the water throughout the ride. The vehicles load continuously. The conveyor belt guests load on has several platforms (with banisters for safety purposes) for them to get to the vehicles staircase. Each platform automatically folds up at the conveyor's end. Besides continuous loading, There are several loading docks that can fit a handful of vehicles. The tracks (similar to that of Search For Winnie the Pooh) join at the end of each dock. Vehicle speed is controlled to prevent collision. A similar case exists at the attraction's exit.

**Skellington Square is a name suggestion for the Chernabog Square overlay. Plus, the Frightages Theater show will differ from the California one due to theater effects.

Sounds nice. So I was thinking, should It's a Smal World go into Disney's Earth or stay in Fantasyland? I mean it would seem weird without it in Disneyland but wouldn't it make more sense if a magical journey around the world with singing children be placed in a park
themed to our world? If so I am thinking small world will be the "castle" of the park, and if you guys want it to stay in Disneyland, planet earth with Mickey Mouse ears on it (lol) will be the park's icon. It will sit upon the building that houses Soarin' Over the World. Sure you can work on TSMM monkey4057. I'm not going to post a whole lotta detail on the Circusland roller coaster but I'm going to say it will be a new version of CS. The cars you ride in our red and have the Incredible logo on the front. The story is, Dash is finally tall enough for a roller coaster when Syndrome's evil son comes and tries to ruin the ride for his young good doer counterpart. So Dash speeds us on a wilder ride across the coaster trying to avoid Syndrome's son all the while. The ride will have two loops, the first one small, and the second one is huge and the track encircles the Incredibles logo.

Disney's Earth-

World Bazaar (Not like TDL's)
World of the Oceans (Moved from DLA)
Badlands (moved from DLA)
Europe
Liberty Bay (moved from DLA)
Arabian Bazaar (moved from DLA's Adventureland)
Canada
Asia
Africa


You can probably tell, not all of the lands in the park will be huge and loaded with attractions it will be more like Word Showcase. I will do the Arabian Bazaar and the Maelstrom ride in Europe which will be an awesome giant flume/river rapid ride with more dangers, like lots of vikings, trolls, and polar bears, and I will be adding the actual maelstrom of Norway, the kraken, and a forest of wolves.

I think Small World should remain in Fantasyland. I mean, you don't see Small World at Epcot's World Showcase, do you?

Anyway, when I got the time, I will try and come up with a verbal tour for that one soon. All versions of the ride have their small differences between them and this version is no exception.

Ok Soarin' will be the main attraction for DE. A rotating model of earth will be placed a top the Soarin' building rotating around in a circle as the park's icon. I think I will do Asia as well. So here are the projects I will be doing for DE, Asia, Arabian Bazaar, and the Maelstrom ride for Europe, I might of said this already but the Maelstrom ride will have a climatic outdoor drop similar to splash only it will be a little smaller. Liberty Bay is already done by MrPotatoHead, and Asia will have an improved Expedition Everest in it. Should there be a big lake in the middle of the park like EPCOT to keep it all far away from each other?

One thing you could have is a river rapids ride in Europe, themed to the Rhine River in Germany (which would also be part of a bigger project plan I have for Epcot (this of course would go in the Germany pavilion)).

When it comes to geography I am an idiot, what is the Rhine river?
