Discussion topic: Now that DCA has gotten their expansion and revamp, where do you think that Disneyland could be expanded and what would you like to see?

Under the castle. Think there could be a huge subterranean villains lair down there with cool attractions. - Zooter  1361.8 #58 10:15AM
Like in Paris - maxinerenton  415.1 #311 3:04PM
Someone said it in another post yesterday, and I agree--Autopia and Innoventions could be...uh... revamped or taken out. I know we hate change, but I think those two attractions take a lot of space for what they are ^_^.  - KylaShea  533.2 #214 9:39AM
I read that article about this change. I couldn't believe how expensive it is to maintain Nemo! - tiggertwin  317.8 #532 9:40AM
And, let's add the water area by Small World - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint  1798.9 #42 10:01AM
here is the link to a Miceage article from last week. I found it very interesting: http://miceage.micechat.com/allutz/al062612a.htm - Goofdog  169.8 #2011 10:03AM
@Idoggiedog...that was a very interesting article, thanks for posting. - NotNKansasAnymor  174.4 #1934 1:31AM
I think INNOVENTIONS should be re-done into a WALL-E themed, sustainable future technology showcase/demo area with a large terrarium greenhouse of exotic and rare plants. 1) it furthers walt's idea that Disneyland should teach kids as well as inspire. 2) It's along the lines of "future" that INNOVENTIONS already tries to achieve. 3) there needs to be an interactive remote controlled WALL-e, like how Push was. - kingofthecatsinsidedisneyland  5.1 #10302 2:57PM
Interesting! - Tom  3871.0 #7 3:24PM
i like - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint  1798.9 #42 3:47PM
My number one is they absolutely need to do something with the peoplemover/rocket rods track.  Either take it down or do something with it, but don't just leave it there.  It really goes against Walt's ideas of keeping the park clean and it's just a waste of space.  I would also like to see them do something with the old Fantasyland skyway station.  I know it's more hidden, but it's vaulable space and something should be done. - Sarafina  398.6 #335 10:37AM
Bring back the Country Bear Jamboree! - magicqueendom  231.6 #1218 10:11AM
Where Thunder Ranch is:Build that Mt. Everest attraction they have in Florida! - snappy  272.6 #806 10:02AM
I would love an Everest! That was my favorite ride over there. - tiggertwin  317.8 #532 10:34AM
This was a huge discussion between my SO and myself. While I love Disneyland the way it is, with the success John Lasseter brought to DCA, I would love to see possibly something else Pixar inspired. Personally I would LOVE a Toy Story themed area or Up. However some more rides based on classics would be nice as well. As for the space perhaps behind Splash Mountain?   - tiggertwin  317.8 #532 9:40AM
My husband and I have always thought it would be great to see the Skyway brought back and themed after Up. I know there's almost no chance of that ride opening back up, but I can dream! :) - Spoonful_O_Sugar  436.2 #285 10:07AM
I'd like to see some visual stimulation up on the People Mover track. The return of a revamped PM would be outstanding. - PrincessDuckie  587.9 #187 9:43AM
Yes! I rode the People Mover in Florida and while it was very outdated I really loved it! - tiggertwin  317.8 #532 9:50AM
It's a nice slow ride, great for families, old and young can do together :-) - PrincessDuckie  587.9 #187 11:08AM
I would gut the Innoventions building and make it into an Incredibles themed attraction, while keeping the mid century architecture intact. They should bring back and update the Peoplemover. It would be nice to see the space where the Rocket Jets were be used for something. Also the former Motor Boat Cruise area is sitting vacant. - ScooterMike  1959.8 #35 9:46AM
agreed. these are things i think of often. and while we're at it, the stairs that lead up to the skyway, that whole platform, let's extend it as an eating area - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint  1798.9 #42 1:27PM
This is my favorite idea!! There's so much that can be done - gigibunny2  242.7 #1079 2:57PM
Innoventions can go. Turning it into something Incredibles related is a great idea. I like the idea of an UP ride. Remember when they had those sky ride things that would take you across the park? How about something like that with an Up theme? They have to keep Nemo. My family loves that ride. - Gabster1  200.0 #1634 9:53AM
I think the SkyWay was removed because of kids dropping things from them. - ScooterMike  1959.8 #35 9:54AM
They can avoid the doing of things by making it more cage like. Similar to MFW - Gabster1  200.0 #1634 10:08AM
Darn kids!!!😡😡* shakes cane* - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint  1798.9 #42 1:36PM
I thought the skyway was removed coz it was to expensive to update it for wheelchair access. Due to a law that went into effect back then. - maxinerenton  415.1 #311 3:11PM
Since its tomorrow land maybe something involving wall-e or meet the robinsons. - aidensmama  336.5 #445 12:48AM
I would take out innovations and toon town and expand fantasyland. But that is just me. - Queenof2princesses  254.7 #965 9:58AM
I agree! Take out Toontown and expand fantasyland. Toontown doesn't exist in my world, never go there. To me its wasted space. - adventurerEnDisneylandia {AED}  278.6 #744 1:08AM
There's been talk of something Avengers themed popping up eventually since Disney bought the Avengers. But I don't know. If they do decide to use the autopia space it would have to still be something that would fit the theme of tomorow land. - WonTonInWonderland  93.0 #3107 9:58AM
I would make some room in adventure land a create a lion king attraction - stevo222  10.1 #6743 10:05AM
Mehhhhhh change.😒 Just as long as they leave pirates in place, I'm fine. - AshleyLynn22  747.6 #136 10:13AM
A lion king themed ride, a Pocahontas themed ride, a tangled themed ride, a mulan themed ride, and definitely a beauty and the beast themed ride(: they can take out Pinocchio, Mr toad, snow white, toon town (minus cartoon spin), innoventions... yeah. Pinocchio, Mr toad, and snow whiteare kinda scary o.o lol I'm 19 and I went on them for the.first time since I was little and my mom was laughing at me and my sister because we kept screaming lol of course after a while we did it on purpose but still lol - splashie  7.9 #7605 10:22AM
Nobody's touching Mr Toad, Peter Pan, Pinocchio, or Snow White's Scary Adventures. These rides are classic and still are a draw - ScooterMike  1959.8 #35 4:03PM
^agreed. - aidensmama  336.5 #445 12:49AM
I can't imagine anyone taking out the classics. :/ That would be way too sad. - PeachKay  310.6 #556 9:56AM
Obviously, land is hard to come by in Southern California and especially at the resort. So, if there were to be additions to the park, it would probably happen where there is an existing attraction in its place. But don't forget, there's still a new stage show coming to Fantasyland once the Princess Fairy Faire moves to the castle area - BaseballMickey_CM  2851.4 #16 10:32AM
do we know what show?? bc a show would be a huge attraction to pull guests out of queues and give them another place to be for a good 45 min- hour - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint  1798.9 #42 10:36AM
Not sure about what the show will be about, but I'm going to assume that it will be a 15-20 minute show like what the theatre used to have - BaseballMickey_CM  2851.4 #16 10:39AM
That is a good point. - tiggertwin  317.8 #532 11:05AM
hm. but Aladdin is a great length of a show - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint  1798.9 #42 1:31PM
Bring back Videopolis! An eighties club is what DL needs. I'll wear a skinny tie and checkerboard Vans - ScooterMike  1959.8 #35 4:07PM
I kinda feel like Dca is the Pixar Park. I would love to see Up themes and other Pixar stuff but think it would fit in batter at DCA. I would love an update of Tomorrowland. Especially Innoventions. And of course People Mover needs to come back! - Deltachiq  969.0 #90 11:17AM
I 100% agree!!! I think of dca more of a pixar park!!! - cmdlgurl  255.5 #951 1:24PM
I think Tomorrowland is in need of a lot of work. I would like to see them focus on updating the entirety of Tomorrowland. - Sheilamo  318.2 #530 1:05PM
Yea, make it more futuristic. - rbeezy  653.6 #160 1:22PM
You mean that when they redid it last time and just used a bunch of gold paint on the old stuff it didn't cut it for you? LOL - Gabster1  200.0 #1634 2:50PM
Toontown had needed an overhaul/update for years. Also I've always thought Critter Country could have more attractions. - Buckaroo23  3.1 #25262 2:52PM
I was looking at a map aerial of Disney and they should get another parking structure. And and tomorrow land definitely need the update. Maybe some sort of electric cars they could sound like the Jetsons... - kameleongt  177.9 #1891 4:20PM
No Marvel themed park please! We need a water park!!! Wild Rivers closed, Raging Waters is horrible and Soak City is lame! Bring back a new PeopleMover, New Autopia (because its an original ride), keep Nemo and say adios to Innoventions. - DiscoSteve  252.3 #987 12:15AM
A mousewait ride where we can experience all our fav posts, a drop, some mermaids, and a troll shooting range. - madsdad  1124.9 #73 12:21AM
Plus one to bringing back the people mover and the Skyway. - AndrewDom  257.4 #929 12:46AM
There's a lot of interesting ideas here. I've always been a fan of the "bring the People Mover back" idea. Though I think someone mentioned possibly taking out the Autopia. I think that should definitely stay. For most kids that's the first time they get to drive some kind of car. So that should definitely be kept for the kids, but (like mentioned by someone else) another update of it would be cool. - NotNKansasAnymor  174.4 #1934 12:58AM
I just think autopia needs an update. I get sick from the fumes. I can't even smoke anymore. Blech, but I do sometimes. I think we should have more characters running around, especially villains. I also think it would be cool if for Disneyland's big 60 that they brought back some old shows from the golden horseshoe and parades, and what not. Kinda bring back a lil bit from all the past decades. And maybe come up with some new show/musical about Walt Disney and the beginning . I have one in my mind that I wanted yto wire down and make sketches for. Ya know? I wish I could just travel back in time and experience each decade of Disney. I want to feel it. I want to soak it up until there is nothing left. New is good but unless you can remember where you came from, where your roots are, what do have? - dreadpiratebubbles  68.7 #3431 1:12AM
Please do something with the peoplemover tracks!!  I still remember riding that with my folks when I was young and I loved the Tron tunnel - why not bring back a Tron ride?  Bring back the Peoplemover in some fashion, and turn Innovations into the Tron game grid - in 3D or something!!  So it looks like you are being transported to the grid with other programs and then you go through light cycles or something, but more modern than it looked in the 80's.  That would be awesome!! - Dawnsharks  8.0 #7551 11:25AM
