Periodically on the WDWMagic.com Imagineering Forum, there is a "One Sentence Competition." The most recent once happened in the days leading up to Christmas. There were 5 rounds. Each submission can be 1-2 sentences (not strictly "1 sentence," and each "sentence" is more like a run-on sentence from Saint Paul) and can include an image. My submissions are shown below in the order in which the prompts came up. Going into the final prompt, I was tied for 2nd (out of 20 people who have had at least 1 submission). Holiday Ride: Gran Fiesta Tour--Feliz Navidad! Join The Three Caballeros as they explore Mexico at Christmas time. Enjoy Christmas songs (like Feliz Navidad and Las Pasadas) as you witness the San Angel Inn Restaurante and the Mayan temple adorned with Christmas lights, stockings for The Three Caballeros, little figures dressed up like Mary and Joseph for Las Posadas in the Fiesta scene, and Christmas trees and garlands accenting the video scenes. Holiday Show: Buddy the Elf’s Christmas Sing-a-Long (2nd Place) For the first time at “Six Flags Holiday in the Park” at Six Flags Great Adventure and Safari, join your favorite characters Buddy and Jovie in spreading Christmas cheer in “Buddy the Elf’s Christmas Sing-a-Long”! The happiest Christmas show outside of the North Pole (which includes all of the best Christmas carols like “Santa Claus is Coming to Town”) is located in Buddy’s beloved Candy Lane Forest–a holiday re-theming of Fantasy Forest. [IP note: The movie Elf is owned by New Line Cinema, which is under the umbrella company Warner Bros. Discovery, which in the U.S. has theme park rights at Six Flags parks.] New Restaurant for CityWalk: Boston to Beijing--Asian Fusion (2nd Place) Filling the unmet need for table service Asian food at CityWalk Orlando, Boston to Beijing takes everyone’s favorite Asian dishes and gives them an American twist—try the Korean Bulgogi Burger (with fries), Mac and Cheese with Hibachi Chicken and Veggies, or the Tempura Shrimp Tacos. The decor of the restaurant also brings together the diverse cultures with some parts American (including the dining tables as well as pictures of American inventions in Asian markets) and some parts Asian (including the lighting as wells as pictures of people in Boston’s Chinatown, Asian neighborhoods in Queens, and Los Angeles’ Koreatown). Dessert (winner received a bonus point): No need for food coloring in the restaurant’s special Christmas dessert—Red Bean Cheesecake, which is the perfect fusion of nutritious and sweet. For your listening pleasure, see the video below. New Christmas Special: The Wise Men Who Found Christmas “The Wise Men Who Found Christmas” is the animated version of the children’s book by Raymond Arroyo, which brings together the true meaning of Christmas with the latest historical discoveries (including the probability that the wise men were from Arabia and not Persia). Learn the true identities of the mystery men–Balthasaar, Melchoir, and Caspar–who followed the royal Christmas star from their homeland all the way to Bethlehem, the town of King David in Israel, to bring special gifts to the baby Jesus. New Holiday Land: North Pole Land at Six Flags Over Texas
Guests to Six Flags Over Texas during “Holiday in the Park” can travel the North Pole by riding on The Polar Express (normally the Six Flags and Texas Railroad steam locomotives; the only original ride from the 1961 opening of the park) from the Texas Depot to the North Pole Depot with narration by the movie’s Conductor (voiced by Tom Hanks). At the North Pole (which is an overlay of Boomtown land), guests can joyfully experience the following: a ride on Santa’s Sleigh (a re-theme of the Runaway Mine Train), Elves’ Sled (a re-theme of the Mini Mine Train), The Christmas Tree (a re-theme of Gunslinger swings ride), and a Santa Meet and Greet. [IP note: The movie The Polar Express is owned by Warner Bros. Pictures, which is under the umbrella company Warner Bros. Discovery, which in the U.S. has theme park rights at Six Flags parks.]
