Villains Land at Magic Kingdom

[Mad Dog]

..Yes....As we've said before, Disney had considered Orlando a mature market, so they felt no need to invest. They really read the tea leaves wrong, Potter woke them up from their slumber. Potter has been a really great happening for the theme park industry....and the Universal Creatives did a great job of putting all that together into a thematic lands, attractions, foods, merchandise, beverage package that reshaped theme park planning. Potter was the 'Bing Bang' culmination thought for theme parks.

So we’re all agreed that they’re going to close Gaston’s Tavern and turn it into The Snuggly Duckling so they can move the Gaston theme over to Villain’s Land, right?

The added twist can be it’s Gaston and Clayton’s Hunting Lodge where the two have entered into a “friendly” competition of mounting Disney’s famous heroic animals on the walls (Beast, Simba, Meeko, Kala, etc)

Heck go real dark and have a framed red loincloth on the wall labeled Man Cub (because Clayton would 100% go after the most dangerous game)

This is a good point, will all the Villains stuff move to the new land?

Aaaa

Doubtful. What other villains stuff is there really anyway ?

Sorry guys. We have to take the only good animatronic out of Ariel's Undersea Adventure.

(New Fantasyland animatronic refreshes do sound like good 'single and doubles' projects for the post-Villains Land slate)

I mean, the ONLY thing I have not really been able to find a one to one association with in the movies is a restaurant

What villain has a restaurant?

The closest I can think of (apart from Gaston’s Tavern) is the chef from The Little Mermaid and I guess Mr. Smee making food for Hook?

I guess if we REALLY stretch it we could have Facilier’z Palace; wherin Dr. Facilier has convinced Tiana to take his deal, but what she doesn’t realize is that by losing her soul, she loses the restaurant. Even this feels sort of like a cop out restaurant to me

If anyone else has ideas, I would LOVE to know them

I think they just do an original combined villains lair/ hangout type restaurant, they have a very light theme for the top of the world lounge at bay lake tower currently.

Or could even do a dungeon like we have been captured or something.

The rumored dining is a Hades and Pain/Panic variety show thing.

Finally, we’ll be wearing Hades’ merchandise!
