Pretend that you are an Imagineer. You can make any improvements to WDW that you want to, be it something related to parks, attractions, restaurants, etc. You have complete authority to spend any amount of money necessary and tear down/remodel/rebuild anything you like. You can also implement procedural changes (such as Fastpass policies or whatever). The only rules are:
1. Nothing that is patently ridiculous or implausible, such as covering the entire property in a dome to keep it climate-controlled year-round.
2. No tearing down existing attractions to bring back previous attractions (so you can't tear down Winnie the Pooh and bring back Mr. Toad, but you can tear down Winnie the Pooh and replace it with something new entirely).
3. Nothing that violates Florida or US laws.
I'll start:
1. PARKS: I would forge ahead with the oft-rumored "Dark Shadows" theme park, which would be based on villains. It would basically be the opposite of the Magic Kingdom; attractions would be more aggressive (like what you would find at IoA or Six Flags); the central castle would be dark and foreboding; there would be a Halloween party that is actually scary, like Halloween Horror Nights at Universal. Of course, it would all be tongue-in-cheek and, you know, Disney.
2. ATTRACTIONS: I would gut Stitch's Great Escape and let the building sit empty until someone came up with an actual, good idea for the space.
3. RESTAURANTS: I would add a place that specialized in sushi, instead of offering sushi as just another menu item. I'd also try to find some place to offer Indian cuisine. Perhaps an Indian buffet near Expedition Everest.
4. RESORTS: I would create an entirely new category of resorts. Call it the "Express" category. Build small, stripped-down motels with zero amenities: no bell service, no food courts, no pools, nothing, but still offer on-site bonuses such as EMH, package dispatch, etc. Put the price in the $40 range so it would be competitive with what budget travelers would find in Kissimmee.
5. TRANSPORTATION: Reduce road congestion by building something akin to a modern, urban light-rail system.
6. PARKS: Find a way of putting out portable bleachers on Main Street, USA for parades. I know it's possible; the city of New Orleans manages to put up temporary bleachers on parts of parade routes for Mardi Gras.
7. RESORTS: Do something, anything, with the rotting carcass of the Legendary Years. Finish it, tear it down, convert it to family suites, whatever.
That's all I've got for now. What are your ideas?
