Ok, Sidisi has been spoiled and I really liked what she's up to. I started putting together a list very reminiscent of a The Mimeoplasm deck I have. Here it goes.
Mesmeric Orb is far and away my favorite card for her. Remember that each permanent untapping is a separate trigger for it, so it has the potential to net you an army. Soul of Innistrad seems like it could fit, for grabbing several small creatures rather than burning your limited reanimation spells on them. Phyrexian Reclamation is similar to the Soul, but better. Crucible of Worlds seems like a good possibility, because you're going to be shipping lands. It's no LftL, but that's setting a pretty high bar. Undead Alchemist is a solid card for shutting down a lot of the benefit your opponents might get from a couple of your mill cards, and can eat a pretty good chunk of their deck combined with Phenax or Altar of Dementia.
I'd try and fit a couple looting/windfall effects in. Frantic Search, Windfall, Whispering Madness, etc. They don't trigger zombie creation, but you're still playing a GY focused deck with some large reanimation targets, and you don't want them stuck in hand.
I'd find another couple reanimation effects too. Phyrexian Delver, the classic Reanimate (+ Snapcaster Mage?), Dread Return, things along those lines. You have a lot of enablers and relatively few ways to take advantage of them. Of the ways you do have, most of them can't be used if milled, which is a big consideration in a deck like this.

Yeah, Mesmeric Orb does have an incredible potential, can't believe I missed that. Phyrexian Reclamation and Soul of Innistrad should also be in there. I first thought about going with the enchantments reanimations, Victimize and Dread Return crossed my mind too, but I totally forgot about them afterwards, thanks for reminding me!
All of your recommendations seem to fit well in the deck, but it will be tough finding room for everything. Guess I have to cut some things I was trying to do there.
With all those tokens you'll be generating, Biomantic Mastery, Parallel Evolution, Skullmulcher, Collective Unconscious or Distant Melody could be good.
I like Skullmulcher a lot as he would also trigger Sidisi's abilitywhen milled away, but I am a bit torn between effects that draw cards and ones that mill or loot. I am trying to maximize on Sidisi's ability without losing some much needed card advantage, which makes it complicated playing high CMC spells that wouldn't trigger Sidisi. That being said, in a more token focused build with some sort of haste effect around, Parallel Evolution could be a superstar.

What do you guys think could make the deck?
Soul of Innistrad seems like it could fit, for grabbing several small creatures rather than burning your limited reanimation spells on them.
Phyrexian Reclamation is similar to the Soul, but better.
Crucible of Worlds seems like a good possibility, because you're going to be shipping lands. It's no LftL, but that's setting a pretty high bar.

Not sure what to cut, though; your list is pretty solid. Maybe a land fetcher of Big Game Hunter.
