Since we have already concluded that Scott is indeed Willy Wonka, I think the park should fill Le Scoot with chocolate and employ Mr. Gasparich to theme the ride to Wonka's chocolate river. He could even pipe the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory soundtrack from speakers along the ride and reuse some of Entwined's old, high-quality costumes as employee uniforms. Naturally, the ride would be sponsored by Nestlé, and it would be renamed "Le Scott."

^Sadly that will probably remain a wishful concept. Just like "Forest" of Fun. That's a novel idea. Actually put it in a forest-like setting. I have never had a sunburn in any other area of the park.

I say the best place to start is the ground up! Start with some new (but theme fitting) landscaping, mainly showcasing typees of flora and fauna from those countries, and the role they play in that country. Followed by a nice repaint/refurbish for everything to maintain the look.(Keep in mind repaint does not mean re-theme or update.You can have antiquated look with fresh paint.)and then create better landmarks for all the countries. Rhinefeld has the Wilkommen house/clock and the fountain,London has the clocktower. Yet, I dont think rides and shows should be landmarks persae. For instance, in San Marco , the teatro and Davinci's Garden of Inventions counts as a landmark, when its a theater and rides. Why not put some more creativity and innovation in and create a new photo-moment spot? Same for france, Okotberfest, New France, Scotland, and Festa Italia.

BGW is the only park that has a 3D rendered map in the SWP&E chain.(I assume that's what you call it) WC map last year was redone due to CC being added. Since BGW hasn't released the map for 2015 due to Tempesto, could we see a new map design similar to what WC got last year since the map won't be released till March?

Although these maps were ridiculed by some for their lack of realistic scaling, I rather enjoyed them.

Sure they aren't the best for getting around the park, but they did their job.
The animation used on these old BGW maps are still slightly incorporated on the BGT maps to date. BGT's
seems to be stretched out, apposed to totally over hauled and beaten to death with dull paint brush. like BGW's current map.

I'll go ahead and leave these two here for you all to compare, contrast, what have you.

Me personally, I think having a "popping", lively park map is key to attracting guests to different areas of the park, opposed to guests just resorting to what/where they know....and in terms of the GP, they do not know much.
