    Default Where would the characters fit in World Showcase?

    I've been thinking about this for a long time, and I made a list of what characters fit where-

    Mexico: The Three Caballeros, Emperor's New Groove (It might be South America, I have no idea...)
    Norway: The Little Mermaid (I know it's in Denmark, but it is close)
    China: Mulan
    Germany: Snow White
    Italy: Pinnochio
    America: Well, there's plenty, like "Oliver and Company" (NY), "Ben and Me" (The colonies), "Sleepy Hollow" (New York State), "Lilo and Stitch" (Hawaii)...
    Japan: KINGDOM HEARTS!!! XD
    Morocco: Aladdin
    France: Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Ratatouille
    UK: Sleeping Beauty (Not sure if it's been proven yet...though Aurora has been spotted in the area between France and the UK), Alice in Wonderland, Mary Poppins, Winnie the Pooh, Robin Hood, The Great Mouse Detective...wow, they've drawn a lot of inspiration from the UK.
    Canada: Brother Bear

    Can anyone think of more?
    Going back May '08.

    My likes-POTC, Haunted Mansion, Muppets 3D

    Looking forward to-Simpsons, Star Tours 2, Harry Potter, visiting Tokyo Disneyland and USJ!

    If they had Australia in World Showcase, there'd be "Finding Nemo". Also, Pinocchio would also fit in Germany. Now for some originals:

    America - Roger Rabbit, Kim Possible, PotC, Country Bears

    UK - Gummi Bears

    I also commend the reference to "Ben & Me", that poster must have a high knowledge of Disney obscurities.

    Here are some more ideas for America:

    -Herbie the Love Bug

    -High School Musical

    -Newsies(I'll personally thank anyone who knows this one)

    -Tailspin(there aren't any jungle themed places in WS,so I'm guessing Baloo will just have to don his pilot uniform and head to America)

    Okay Here's My list because I'm a fairytale expert !

    Mexico-Three Cabelleros
    Norway-Peter and the Wolf ( Alot of people don't know about that Disney short film!)
    Germany-Snow White and the Seven Dwarves
    Morocco-Aladdin, or Lion King characters (primarily Morocco is in Africa and the Aladdin Characters are middle eastern but whateve, lol
    Italy-Pinocchio
    France-Sleeping Beauty, Beauty and the Beast both written by Charles Perrault, as well as Cinderella. However Cinderella has many different versions all over the world and is believed to have begun in the Asian countries.Aristocats too.
    China-Mulan
    America-Pocahontas, Brer Rabbit and the gang, Country Bears
    UK-Alice in Wonderland, Mary Poppins and Winnie the Pooh(even though Winnie the Pooh was Canadian because the bear was brought to the UK from Winnepeg Manitoba, hence the name of the storybook character Winnie the Pooh) , there are no bears in the UK, also Winnie was a baby black bear cub(in real life) Peter Pan.
    Japan- Kingdom Hearts characters I guess! lol
    Canada-Brother Bear & Winnie the Pooh but the story was written in England, so I guess he's split up between the two countries!

    Disney's Polynesian Resort 1996
    Disney's Port Orlean's Riverside 2004
    Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort This September 2007 YAY!

    I don't know about "Black Cauldron" in Norway...or having Jadis there as "The Chronicles of Narnia" is set in the UK. "Peter and the Wolf", while set in Russia, is a better fit for Norway.

    But how is Mike Wazowski fitting in Japan? Does he resemble a yokai? I can't think of one that he'd be like now...
