It seems like Disneyland rides make great feature films. They’ve already done four Pirates Of The Caribbeans and The Haunted Mansion is getting a second retelling thanks to Guillermo del Toro. So why not go ahead and green light a movie based on the entire park? According to Latino Review, that may very well be happening!

Before we actually see Disneyland: The Movie, it’s interesting to note that two other high-profile rides may be getting the big screen treatment first. The Jungle Cruise is supposedly in pre-production and Space Mountain is rumored to be in the planning stages, with Dwayne Johnson expected to star.
We could see those working, but how could they turn the entire park into a film? According to reports, the concept could be similar to that of Night At The Museum, where a worker gets trapped after hours and all kinds of characters start coming to life (including Mickey Mouse and the gang).
Sounds somewhat interesting, but Disney execs were quick to reveal that it is not considered a top priority at the moment. Various script ideas are supposedly being worked on, which means the concept could change drastically before it ever hits theaters.
It seems to us, if they really wanted to make the most out of the park, why not continue to base more movies after specific attractions? Thunder Mountain: The Movie, It’s A Small World: The Movie, and when ideas really start getting thin, Hot Dog Cart: The Movie!
