I mean I’m not sure why people are so insistent on the fact that this will be any different to HK and Tokyo. All three use the same design. Hell HK and Paris basically have the same entire land map and it works in neither so far I’m not sure why Paris would be the one to suddenly make it work...

Because they are modeled to be identical but the HK one at least flows into the natural landscape. The Paris one is an artificial mountain in the middle of a flat plain I haven’t seen Paris complete but I’ve seen it pretty close to being finished by a friend who worked for Paris and Paris...

To be fair we have examples of it in HK, and because HK has the mountain as it looks better

Has a show for the lake actually been announced alongside this expansion I’m still kinda iffy about if this expansion is enough. Parc Disneyland can’t deal with another 20 years of WDS hoovering up funding but current WDS is just so bad that two medium sized living lakes with 1 mega e ticket...

Does SEA count as an IP because discoveryland could easily work as part of an SEA expansion similar to the American waterfront I’d actually be fine dumping Star Wars into WDS if it means getting a lot of haphazard IP out of Parc Disneyland. Parc Disneyland is flawless from a magic kingdom...

Tokyo’s sub land is kinda awful from a land perspective but the ride more than makes up for it especially since both only have one ride unlike Hong Kong Like if you are going for the design of arendelle then HK beats it, if you are going for ride quality then Tokyo beats it Not much guest...

Do we really need another 7DMT? Like this expansion is already being hampered by being last to the party for frozen and still somehow being the worst of the frozen lands unless you count norway as a frozen land

Shanghai I don’t mind because they explicitly designed Shanghai to not “waste money” hiding show buildings or decorate queues because “culturally” (as far as I know from an old book about the planning of Shanghai that might be wrong) Shanghai guests don’t care about those things. They aren’t...

Here is a comparison of the guest paths that really shows this

It all just seems so much pomp and circumstance for what amounts to so little A multi year 2 stage expansion to increase the ride count by 5, 2 of which are genetic flats that are more there for kinetic atmosphere than as actual rides So 10 years for a clone of web slingers, a clone of the...

Makes you wonder what yas island’s attendance goal is Paris does have a lower operating capacity than all but HK by magic kingdom alone because it’s very much built form over function. You can see this in its path design

Paris does seem to be in a weird rut where it’s technically earning more than Disney needs it to earn but it doesn’t it because the initial euro Disney investment paid off and people acknowledge how good parc Disneyland is; not because they have made worthwhile investments in the resort recently...

I can’t remember where I saw it but I’m pretty sure that WDW and Paris have the highest overlap of guests of any of the two resorts Americans and people who go to America for the parks tend to go to one or the other. Shanghai and Tokyo are very insular in their demographics, HK has a wider...

so much of this expansion is very strange. Lion king is definitely a gap that got filled at the right time but so much of this expansion feels like it’s opening the park up to future expansion when the park needs a reason to visit it right now Like “smallest frozen area right at the very back...

To be fair Disney really seems to be going that route a lot recently Like they only a few months ago went “oh yeah by the way Disney Abu Dhabi” I do hope we get some more concrete details on it soon though

Wouldn’t it just be better to start on the substantial thing now I mean unless they intend to fill the grizzly plot first Since when this is built if it’s medium term the only thing the park has on the horizon is TOT which itself is already under construction

I just think it’ll be more than that because it’s one of only two easily accessible expansion pads the park has left After they use this one they have one more big pad (east of grizzly). After that future expansion has to be a second gate but you can’t do a second gate piecemeal. Does HK...

But it’s in an area that doesn’t have anything in it

Is it confirmed to be a normal flume like splash or are they trying to integrate the Shanghai pirates/tokyo frozen dancing boats that go backwards and the like into a flume drop ending

It always seemed implied to be permanent to me, a proper extension of Toy Story land
