Recently we were discussing the chance of a Villains-themed spot that may well sooner or later appear to Disney theme parks. Many thanks to Chris Beatty, a renewal of the subject is now swirling all-around the Disney forums with speculation and armchair Imagineering aplenty. Even so, it wasn’t right until this morning, when I viewed as which characters I would like to see far more of in the parks, that I realized I may just have the response Disney is on the lookout for.
A Villain topic would be a significant jump for Disney, air house to “evil” inside storytelling rhetoric the place fantastic (almost) constantly triumphs. That’s a important departure for the firm letting villains to exist in and of themselves as a lot more than just a catalyst for the hero to prevail. To me, it sounds epic nevertheless, I can see why the idea would be scary for The Walt Disney Company. What if they are much too risky? What if they are watered down and not scary plenty of? Some lovers are pushing for an entire 5th gate devoted to these dark minds, and many others, however admittedly not lots of, never want to see them at all. Well, Disney, I think I may have the response.
Let’s simplicity into the villain idea with a new restaurant. A dining working experience like no other right before it. Where by villains swirl around, meeting and greeting with attitude and secret. We would will need a respectable space, so the natural way, I have chosen my least favored dining area, Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant, in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, to play out my imaginary strategy. Let us do absent with the uncomfortable drive-in style autos and convey in boulders, caves, and concealed booths that restrict your see of the space about you, letting these evil characters to skulk and creep all around the scene. Food stuff and consume will be themed accordingly think of it as a perpetual Halloween celebration sans pumpkins.
And in this article is the best part, as the evening wears on, the ecosystem and the characters get darker in appearance and perspective. Convey the little ones for lunch to delight in a gentle-hearted joke all over with their preferred terrible fellas, maybe even with a several heroes in the blend to scare them off when essential, but as the sunlight goes down, there is no a person there to preserve you from Cruella or Captain Hook whoever could change the corner next. Potentially even getting a thunderstorm or two, Rainforest Cafe-design, as the evening wears on as nicely. Oh, aspect take note, what if you could opt for your intensity on the way in, allowing for your unique cave (booth) to have accurate music and lighting for your option? A marker on the table could point out to characters how intensely they solution your relatives. With a number of configurations variations on a command panel, your entire ecosystem could be toned down or turned up in accordance to your booking choice.
What do you feel? Could this be Disney’s first move toward a Villains-themed place? Would you e book a lunch or meal at my evil institution, at your preferred intensity of evil?
