Who knows, it could be good. I was highly skeptical of Pirates, but it was a fun movie!

 

[Chad R]

Like Pirates it will need to be loosely based on the ride.

 

[george kaplan]

Well the ride itself is loosely based on the African Queen, so it'll be interesting to see what kind of movie they end up creating. I can't imagine it being anything like, or anywhere near as good as the African Queen, though.

What's next, Churro Stand: The Movie?

 

[Nick Sievers]

Remember about The Haunted Mansion as well, that wasn't recieved very well.

 

[ChrisMatson]

Ahh...I haven't seen Mansion (and have no intention of ever seeing it) so I had not thought about it.

So I guess this has a 50/50 shot at not sucking.

What's next The Hall of Presidents or the Tiki Bird Room? I guess Disney has ran out of good ideas that they have turn to their attractions to get inspired. After Pirates of the Caribbean being hit, I guess they think this is where the money is at.

I'm holding out for a Carousel of Progress movie myself.

I'm waiting for Teacups: The Reckoning.

 

[Ron-P]

I'm holding out for the musical: "It's a Small World". Imagine, two hours of that song. You know, now that I've brought it up, you'll be singing it all day...

 

[Seth Paxton]

Ron,

I'm seeing IaSW as a horror flick.

 

[Matt Butler]

Will they shoot the guns at the hippos?!

 

[Marvin Richardson]

How about "Autotopia: The Movie". A race to the death in miniature deathmobiles topping out at 3 mph.

 

[MarcusUdeh]

I needed a good laugh and damn was that it !

If I may Marvin, I have a better title for your movie:

Death Race Autopia starring David Carradine and Sylvester Stallone as they race through Disneyland, trying to rack up points by running over park employees dressed as Disney characters.

 

[John Kilduff]

Larry's "Death Race Autopia" comment reminds me of something I did in my younger days on the Internet.

I worked on an "Animaniacs!" fan fiction, and in one scene, I had Yakko riding a motorcycle and running over a guy in a Goofy costume.

It didn't make the final cut, though.

Sincerely,

John Kilduff...

Aaah, yes, those were the days.

 

[MatthewLouwrens]

Ernest - Great movie ideas, but the film I definitely want to see is: I would be embarrassed while watching it, and hope no-one sees me walking out of the theatre, but I would definitely see it.

She was definitely hot. (Sigh)
