You mean that in this article dated 25th February 2010, posted the same day that these videos were published online by Disneyland Paris, we should have given credit to the Disneytheque “dossier” published on 4th March 2010?

Right…

The Disneytheque made this discovery first, no? You edited the article…

That’s not fair to not credit!

I agree with Twiddy. Enough with the negativity guys! We can all say what we want when we have seen the finished product but for now, let’s just hope for the best.

I’ve said it before, and I will say it again- one Great Movie Ride for everyone!! Although a more modern version than WDW. That’s what the Studios is all about.

Great photos. Now I just wish I could get that ‘ Mickey’s Magical Party Time’ tune out of my head…

The railings on top are there for safety when the workers were attatching the cables, so i think they will come down. It needs alot more themeing for it to look any bit ok! I dont know what they were thinking when they designed Toy Story Playland! I wish they had spent the money on one GOOD ride and not 3 bad ones! and to make things worse its not even going to be open until august!! so disappointing!

I think the whole of WDS needs some serious vegetation added to it. The main thing that comes to mind when one is in there is the amount of concrete. If you compare Disney’s Hollywood Studios in WDW one can see how lush it looks with the amount of greenery there.

Lets hope after all the commotion at DCA John Lasseter and Robert Iger will point their concentration to our slice of the Disney magic here in Europe. The damage from Mike Eisner is still left and we need help!!!!

IMO, I think that we should all just hold back and take a deep breath – we don’t know exactly what the Disney team have in mind as the designs are simply that – designs! What we need to do is stop with the negativity and think of some positives as we don’t have a clue what the finished product is going to be like.

^ I think the Studios need a lot of trees, just like the Disneyland Park. Not only to cover Toy Story Playland, but also in the rest of the park. When you look at the Disneyland Park, you’ll see that trees cover other themes from eachother, so you won’t be ably to see Big Thunder Mountain from Adventureland and the Orbitron from Fantasyland.

I agree John. I have vented my frustration elsewhere on DLRPtoday blog – more to do with opening date of Toyland. Tower of Terror is hideous, now this!

I appreciate DLRP is a smaller park than in the US, but the latest attractions are so small-scale in terms of ‘Wow-factor’. A series of houses with balloon clusters that rise and fall at some falls – all directly based on UP! would have been nice.

Comment on Playland engulfs Tram Tour, Parachute ropes drop by Boris Platt

Now I am truly upset. When I last went to DLP, Pirates of the Caribbean attraction was “Closed for your future enjoyment”, so really frustrated that then meant an increase in the queues for other rides such as Thunder Mountain (so didn’t get to go on that one either).

I had booked with Short Breaks from here in the UK, and at the time of booking the official Disney site stated Summer 2010. Being optimistic, I am travelling mid-Summer and will subsequently miss the opening of the Toy Story Land that was being heavily featured as part of the next gen promotion.

With the launch of the Alice in Wonderland movie, i was expecting improvements to the attractions relative to that, but still the same, lame maze.

So, what’s actually new for me to see in the 4 years since i went last? No doubt by the time i go, thunder mountain will be closed for my future enjoyment too!

It was very crowded on Saturday with St. David’s day. It began to clear up around 9pm.
I was surprised because there where fireworks just an hour later. I had no problem finding a good spot to film the fireworks.

Next week St Patrick’s Day, I can’t wait!!!

The frightening part is that this ugly tower is probably almost finished. If I look at the concepts, the only thing that’s missing are the horizontal beams connecting those overhanging platforms, but maybe they just omited them in the final design. The pesky railings on top also aren’t in the concept, so there is hope they might remove them too.

Even Jumping Jellyfish in DCA looks better, with at least a minimal level of theming tacked onto it.

They should move over some of those already nicely grown sequoias surrounding Sequoia Lodge and fence off the whole area with it. Something with considerable height is needed to make this disappear.

Is it just me or did it looks every day a little bit cheaper? :)
