Found a source for both Disney Interactive Studios AND Pixar backing this up. I know it's in the rumor section, but it does state that Warren Spector DID say he was working on his first project with Disney Interactive and Pixar... So if this isn't it, what the hell else is coming out?[/QUOTE]
Creepy, Walt must have been on drugs while having this idea.
That was amazingly eerie.
Holy shit. Terminator meets Disney.

How's this?

Any suggestions?
[QUOTE=Bamboo;16422552]Damn they really need to put this game onto the PS3/Xbox360 so I can play it and not just those wholesome soccer mom families that worship the Wii.[/QUOTE]

I'm guessing that's you, correct?
[QUOTE=Samuelgames;16477697]It's like the 1st Xbox, it's the software that triggers the resolution, the first Xbox can do 1080i, but no official games had it, but look at XBMC as an example, if you have a component cable you can put 1080i on it[/QUOTE]
Well, it's not in the settings menu for the console itself, and it wasn't for the original XBox until an update released over LIVE, and then the original XBox could do [I]some [/I]of the less demanding games in 720p/1080i.

Note the centre picture in the set of 3. Look at the top right. It appears to be a lid on the box of sorts, and you can see light pouring in.
This isn't Disney World, this is all orchestrated within a toy box or maybe an artists box, which can explain why Disney gave it the green light.
Another point of interest is the bottom picture. Note how the scaffolding around the paint thinner (same paint thinner as one of the pictures in OP's post) is made of pencils and the like? Now look at this art.

The middle building is a cardboard box. Theres a "This side UP" symbol on it. Theres also a spool of thread, a fork, some sunglasses, and the clock on the tower is a watch. Theres a few other things as well, such as a bottle cap and a card. The entire game is shrunken down. The characters are all just art or toys and it's probably all some kids imagination.
Another thing to note in the "Paint Thinner" image in OP's post is the pipe going from the ocean into the top of the paint thinner bottle. One could presume that maybe the ocean itself is paint thinner, and why the "animatronic" dwarves are transporting the toons, as animatronics wouldn't be damaged by it. Also, the bottle is aiming towards the castle on that huge spire. One could assume that it's a bomb of sorts, and they're planning to fire it at whoever is in that castle.
It could be the Phantom Inkblot, one of Mickies oldest adversaries, judging by the ink pouring from its summit, or maybe even Mickey himself, as the rumored plot includes classic characters going up against Mickey. A possibility is all these Black and White toons are jealous at Mickey, as the rumored plot suggests, and of course the most jealous character would be Oswald The Lucky Rabbit, as posted earlier. His rights were taken by Universal (I'm not sure how this happened) and recently regained by Disney in 2006. Oswald was Walts ORIGINAL CREATION, which would explain why he is jealous that he isn't at the top like Mickey is.
Oswald even appears on the side of a Tomorrowland rocket ship in the following concept art.

You can tell I'm really excited to see how this game turns out. More concept art.

Notice the graffitti in the alleyway
BLOT
SUX
i love disney, and i would love it if this was released (even if i had to play it on my wii, then again that might be a good thing, so it can get some love... however, any idea if it's coming to anything else?), but i don't think it'll get too far.
Good thing all of our mom's/grandma's have wii's so we can buy this and go test it out.
I just shed a motherfucking tear.
Than I remembered concept art is nothing like the game.
I hope this has a similar art to Bioshock. I would love to see that dumbo crawling up a metal support as a shadow and than have it run around in the darkness above to scare the shit out of me.
It would be kind of awesome if it were first person actually, but it'll be third person I'm sure. Though we aren't even sure about the gameplay yet, just rumors.

Yeah, as you could tell by my longass post I'm a big disney fan too. Dark spooky disney is one of my dream movies, and this could be the closest we'd get to that.
That long post was amazing. Have an artistic.
Also, if it's just a shrunken version of Disneyland, I'm kinda disappointed. I wanted it to be an actual corrupted Disneyland :(
I think it'd be really cool if a lot of the old-timey children's characters took more mature turns. Well, I think big mood shifts like this are good shifting in any direction. A mature Zelda game would be fun to see, but so would a cartoony Doom game. :v: Companies are just always so obsessed with maintaining their "original artistic vision" or some stupid shit like that.
My childhood memories have just been manly-ified.
This idea is really awesome and disturbing, I really hope this thing is done right.
The concept artwork looks cool until you realize this is going to be on the wii
the one console that can never do it justice.

Yeah, it's a bit of a dissapointment, but I doubt they would give it the green light otherwise, sadly. Thanks for the artistic, that post was a big cumulation of ideas that myself and /v/ contributed together.

I just noticed that the Paint Thinner says 64 oz. on it, everything is indeed tiny.

Well you could say that no console can do it justice. /PCelitism
It seems that the comic "The almost infinite story" Inspired some of these pictures.
Its a small world.
Concept art is making me have an orgazm. I hope the actual game does something similar for me.
That long post crushed all my dreams
[QUOTE=Asd.;16506398]That long post crushed all my dreams[/QUOTE]
I'm sorry
It crushed mine too. I was so hoping for it to be the actual Disney World, but apparently nay. Of course, this is just concept art, so we'll see where it goes (most likely nowhere D: )

Why does it matter if it's not the full sized Disney world?
It's still Disney stuff

Still, it'll be kind of lame seeing everything made of cardboard boxes and pencils, and such. The very idea of it is still awesome though. But we'll see how it turns out.

One thing I noticed is that one of the middle robotic dwarf thing looks to actually be snatching a toon off the beach with the hand coming out of the top of its back. I don't think they're transporting them, but kidnapping them or something.
