-I would love to see Neverland expanded. You never actually set foot there in the first after all and I'd love to see the Lost Boys and stuff. While I'm on Neverland, Hook's pirate ship was at least in Neverland, right? As it was anchored down on the seas of it.
-I never even thought of it until someone mentioned it but the Jungle Book would be an interesting world, with Baloo, Moglei(spelling?), the Jaguar, and Louie(or whatever he's called in it)
I really hope the next one will feature more new worlds, as I think the revisited worlds in KH2 have served their purpose and shouldn't be back yet again.(Halloween Town, Agrabah, Atlantica, etc) Don't get me wrong, they were extremely fun levels and I enjoyed them all, I just think it's time to move on and keep it from getting repetitive. Though, I'm willing to make one exception, which would be Olympus Colliseum, which has served as location for the tournament cups for the first two. I'm hoping they will expand on this world some more and show us Mount Olympus and the various gods that reside there and stuff. Olympus really is a big place after all, as besides the colliseum and Underworld, there's all of Greece and stuff.
If there IS a Pocahontas world, Pocahontas shouldnt be in your group, because Pocahontas is represented as a pacifist.
The Halloween Town in Kingdom Hearts is from "The Nightmare Before Christmas", which are stop-frame animation. Then there was a Disney Channel original movie called "Halloween Town" that was live-action, with terrible acting and a really lame storyline about a family of witches where the children weren't aware that they were witches and the mom didn't want them to know but the grandma, who lives in Halloween Town, does want them to know, so they somehow end up there and find out and get their powers and fight some evil warlock guy.Quote:

Okay let's face it. Dreaming of all these different worlds in nice.....but it is really unlikely. Tetsuya Nomura said about KH3 on Famitsu.com "It's difficult to explain it. I'm thinking about how to talk about it [without giving things away], which means that there will be some twists to it. Up until now, the series followed along a [straight] time line, going from Kingdom Hearts to Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories and Kingdom Hearts II. But the idea I have right now doesn't follow that flow," Nomura told Famitsu.com. "However, as long as it inherits the Kingdom Hearts title, it needs to have some connection [to previous installments] in terms of storyline, so it won't be too distant from the other titles. In any case, this is still at a conceptual phase, where I'm thinking about what I want to do."
Famitsu.com also asked Nomura whether the next installment's story will take place after the ending in Kingdom Hearts II. However, Nomura only smiled, neither confirming nor denying it.
What I fear is that Sora won't even be in it. I know that is somewhat unreasonable but I can't help but worry. The secret video at the end of the game mentioned Xehanort so we haven't seen the end of him, or maybe the beginning of him. Also, Ansem's report said something about Xehanort not being human or being something (before he became Xemnas). (Excuse me if I misunderstood that.) I think that whatever happens in the next game it should be as awesome as the last ones. What I did notice is that we visited all the summons worlds. That could mean we visit Chicken Little and Stitch but who knows. As for Final Fantasy worlds I agree that it won't be likely. Nomura said he didn't want FF worlds and disney and Enix balance each other out with the disney worlds versus square-enix characters. I hope that Riku and Kairi become part of the fighting party if it is still centered around Sora.
Okay- let me just say this. Before I get too frustrated with comments.
Don't count on there ever being Final Fantasy worlds in KH. Nomura said in an interview that we should never count on that ever happening. Since they've had their own games, he never plans on making an actual FF world.
What we can do is guess on the new FF character cameos...
I really can't believe ya'll are already thinking about KH3 when KH2 just came out! Go play your hearts out! Don't dwell on the next project that won't be for at least another 4 years!
Nomura also said, don't count on there being a KH3 for loooong while cuz they have other projects to focus on now. They haven't even started on KH2: Final Mix yet!
I suppose if we were to talk on the subject, however...
The worlds that should be included in the next one:
I still wasn't very pleased with the "massiveness" of the game. They claimed it was an enormous game, but I really failed to see it. It didn't seem much bigger than the first one, were it not for the total enormous expansion on the Gummi Ship part...
So I really think they should revisit ALL of the past worlds this time...
Previously Featured Worlds
Destiny Islands: I think they need to expand this world into the town like it was shown in cutscenes of KH2. That might be interesting...
Disney Castle: They've shown Horace Horsecollar, Clarabelle Cow, and Clara Cluck in the past so I think they should show them nowadays. I think Scrooge McDuck kinda got jipped outta the storyline, as well...
Wonderland: They've yet to actually feature the Mad Hatter and the March Hare properly so I think they should feature this world again to show them, as well as the Caterpillar and the Doormouse.
Agrabah: Since they've featured The Return of Jafar, I guess they could continue the story further with The King of Thieves, although I hate that one...
Olympus Coliseum & The Underworld: I really don't know what they could do further with this one, but I really loved this world when it was brought back. The Underworld made it so much more interesting! Plus Auron was badass...
Deep Jungle: I really don't know why people hated this world so much. The detail of the environments were amazing and the voice-acting was great. I've always kinda liked Tarzan, so I guess I'm biased, though...
Monstro: Okay- you can't feature Jiminy Cricket in a game without his puppet counterpart, Pinocchio! I was annoyed they didn't bring him back in KH2! They don't have to go back to Monstro, just Pinocchio's world and maybe feature Pleasure Island and the Fox and the Cat... Maybe Stromboli as well...
Atlantica: I'm annoyed they reduced this fun world to just a mini-game world in the sequel! It showed so much promise with incorporating Prince Eric into the story this time! Ugh! Maybe they could continue the story further with Ariel's search to be able to be with Eric. I know at the end, they show her and Eric married, but that could just be a look into the extreme future- we shouldn't write this world off.
Halloween Town & Christmas Town: Maybe they could continue this story further with Jack exploring other holiday worlds...
Never Land: Do I really need to even go into this? They need to actually show Never Land this time! Not just Captain Hook's ship and the Clock Tower... Like maybe Mermaid Lagoon and the Lost Boys' hideout and Skull Rock and Tiger Lily's village.
Beast's Castle: I think they moved through this world too quickly! Not enough exposition was given. Plus they left out a really fun Disney villain: Gaston! (I really think they should've named this world "Enchanted Castle", instead... I don't think it was very creative to have the character's name in the world name...)
The Land of Dragons: I loved this world! I couldn't get enough. It was too short... Somehow they could further Mulan's quest to bring her family honor. Maybe the Huns could return for another attack and they'd have to call her back to war.
Port Royal: They've featured The Curse of the Black Pearl, so I think they should feature the sequel to the first movie, Dead Man's Chest in the next game. It would own.
The Pride Lands: They could further the story by showing Simba's attempt to renew his kingdom to it's former glory. All I have to say is: more Timon and Pumbaa! (and this time, get Nathan Lane...)
Timeless River: I liked this world and was kind of annoyed at how short it was. I think they should have further featured the Steamboat Willie story- and they could include others from other shorts. Maybe they could feature Donald and Goofy's first cartoon storylines as well! Also, they never showed the old Minnie Mouse...
Space Paranoids: I extremely disliked this world, but I don't like the movie, Tron, in the first place. I know this movie has a cult-following, though, so I could tolerate it again. I must admit the Light Cycle mini-game was kinda fun. I also like how they included this world in Hollow Bastion's storyline. Very creatively done.
Hundred Acre Wood: This world is an extremely out-of-place one, but for some reason they keep bringing it back. So... why not again? I like Eeyore, myself...
Hollow Bastion/Radiant Garden: They could do so much more with this semi-FF world. The place wasn't even fully restored yet in KH2. Leon needs to meet Rinoa and change his name back to Squall. Cloud needs to choose between Tifa and Aerith. They need to add Zell! And Red XIII/Nanaki! Barret as well- there's not a single black guy in this game... Racist Japanese...
New Worlds That Should Be Featured
Snow White world: You gotta have the Seven Dwarves in a Disney game... Prince Charming could be featured. As well as the evil Queen!
Cinderella world: Where were Jack and Gus??? And the wicked Stepmother...
Sleeping Beauty world: (They practically had every character from this movie in it anyways...)
The Sword in the Stone world: Arthur needs Merlin to train him!
Fantasia world: They could somehow show Sora and company go back in time (like they did to go to Timeless River) to show Yen Sid train a past Mickey and have him go nuts with his magic hat, like in The Sorcerer's Apprentice...
Dumbo world: Well, they've had other summons' worlds featured... why not another? A circus world could be fun.
Bambi world: Another summon's world that hasn't been featured yet...
Chicken Little world: This could be a really fun storyline to include in a sequel!
Lilo & Stitch world: They need to include Jumba and Pleakley! I could care less if they included Lilo... Hey... That makes me think! Maybe they could feature a story before Stitch visits Earth. Like- make him some kinda space traveler. They could have him fight off the Intergalactic Federation or whatever.
Robin Hood world: I've always loved this classic and I think it should be included because it could be a fun addition!
Lady and the Tramp world: Such a great classic! Few people have noticed this- but, on Traverse Town's world picture, there's an image of Lady and Tramp on a back wall of a fountain or something. This movie deserves more than that!
101 Dalmatians world: Pongo and Perdita should talk this time, since they made Simba talk. Plus- they left out an awesome Disney villain in the past game: Cruella De Vil!
Worlds That I NEVER Want to See In A KH Game...
The Hunchback of Notre Dame world
Pochahontas world
Atlantis: The Lost Empire world
Treasure Planet world
Phew! *wipes off sweat from brow* That was a lot of typing...
I guess the last thing I want to suggest: they should bring back Roxas and Naminé somehow! I don't think what happened to them was fair! They deserve be their own people- with hearts! DiZ was cruel...
*mumble mumble* Ansem the Wise, my butt... *mumble mumble*
And besides! They brought Tidus back in FFX-2: which made no sense! But they still did it! I think they deserve this, too...
Most of your worlds are very unlikely because you can't fight in them. That is the only reason the worlds are the way they are. I admit Wonderland was sorta a stretch even thought it was nice. As for revisiting all the worlds.....One more thing for reviewers to complain about. People would say that just revamping isn't good enough. I like the Atlantica thing because it really brings out the major part of The Little Mermaid. Disney movies are freaking musicals!!! I am so happy that they transeferred that into the game. Most worlds can't be created for the fact that they already used the characters. For instance there won't be a cinderella world because Maleficent and the fairies have already be shown. That is why they couldn't do an FF world if they wanted to.
Ummm... They brought Simba's world into the mix. They made Mushu's world. They added onto Olympus Coliseum and brought back Aladdin's. Why not bring them back again? I really don't think you make a good arguement.
And about the Atlantica thing- I really loved the fact that they added the musical aspect of it cuz Ariel's supposed to be a fantastic singer- I just was mad they did away with all the underwater fighting... They could've made it a fighting world as well. Just had singing mini-games, too.
After all- this is more a Disney game than a Square Enix game anyways. If you wanna play a Final Fantasy, pick up a Final Fantasy...
And your reasoning's really not the reason why they're never going to feature a FF world anyways. It's cuz they all have their own games already anyways.
Go powerful woman, I can understand were you're coming from....But....Cinderella isn't in Sleeping Beauty XD. It's actually Princess Auora/Briar Rose, who is the princess in the film.
Well, you can thank the people that were complaining how ''to damn difficult'' the underwater controls were, you know, despite the command menu and the ENTIRE world have been reduced to a instruction manual for little kids that whine ''boo!!! too hard!!!Quote:

Some say it would be better if the world wasn't featured at all. But then again, those are obsessive fanboys that are insecure about their masculinity or just hate The Little Mermaid because ''its gor gurlz!!1''. Besides, it is one of Disney's WELL KNOWN MOVIES, not to include it is an insult.
But there IS no other movie that has Jacking doing any of that sort. A lot of the worlds are movie-based and almost follow the plot of the movies. I loved Halloween Town. Hell, I loved it more in the second because of how it was re-vamped and how great the scenery was, even if it was shorter than it was in the original game.Quote:
Halloween Town & Christmas Town: Maybe they could continue this story further with Jack exploring other holiday worlds...
Why not a HOND or Pocahontas world? It be interesting to see how worlds based on those movies. Pocahontas would have that ''Native Indian'' feel, while HOND probably might give you the ''set in 16/17th century Paris''. You may not like the ideas, but you never know, perhaps Noruma COULD be thinking of it.
Sorry if it sounds as a direct post towards you, but in general, I think it applies to lots of other people. One of the biggest issues in KH, both games, is how small worlds can be and the how in the second game, they lack lots of exploration. Agrabah was expanded, but Cave of Wonders was reduced. Same with Halloween Town, Hollow Bastion, ATLANTICA and etc..
I agree with ya, Heartless Soul, on the point you made about how small the worlds were in this game. They were small in the first one, now I think some were made even smaller...
And my reasoning behind not wanting the The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Pochahontas in KH is because they both were two examples of Disney's worst work.
Pochahontas was just plain lame and THoND was waaaay too adult and dark in some scenes to be even considered a good family movie. I liked the animation of the cathedral and Esmerelda was kinda cool, but I hated most of the other characters.
I agree with you that would be awsome but I'd like it if cloud was on your team.Quote:

How retarded is that.
On the opposite hand... One world i had no thought of that would be BEAST is the Pleasure Island segment of pinnochio. that would own so much, seriously. carnival rides, neon, crazy donkey kids? it's a gold mine.
One word: Fantasia.
