Fantasia - the 4D coaster ride. Based on the popular Disney cartoon
Fantasia, this attraction would be a fully enclosed roller coaster where
riders would zip through holographic images from the movie. Computers would
randomly insert scenes so that each ride would be unique.

Tron 2.0 - the interactive ride. Based on the game, Tron 2.0 would be a high
speed ride through the game grid where the guest is able to make choices
that effect the outcome. To open simultaneously with the new movie.

The 1927 movie "Metropolis". One of the first sci fi movies ever made.

Escape From Disneyland. Based on the popular Kurt Russel movie.

Neither is Finding Nemo, but Disney is in the process of turning the subs
into a Finding Nemo ride.

Fantasyland might be a good place for a Fantasia ride, but this would be a
high speed rollercoaster. I just don't think these kind of rides would be
appropriate for Fantasyland.

Where would you put it?

How about a wild mouse with cars that can spin in circles like the tea cups?
The actual spinning would be under computer control based on joystick
movements. The track would have branches, and no two cars would take the
same route. Some cars might be in the ride longer than others. Get a high
enough score and extend the game play. Defeat the MCP (almost impossible)
and go home with a really cool prize. A DVD of your experience could be
purchased at the end of the ride/game.

Do you remeber the scene near the end of the Black Hole where the main
characters are traveling from one end of the ship to the other via some kind
of transit system while the ship is losing gravity and oxygen? I'd love to
see a ride based on this culminating with the plunge into the black hole.
This ride could be another coaster, except the cars would be smaller,
perhaps only seating three so that everyone gets a front seat view of the
extensive video and animatronics in the ride. This could be Disney's best
ride ever.

No update to Tomorrowland would be complete without a new People Mover. The
People Mover was a great way to relax and kill 15 minutes. Bring it back,
this time with nice upholstered seats, A/C and a top notch soound system.

A return of the sky buckets would be nice too, except that this time the
ride would be fully ADA compliant.
