As a DLP fan as of the early 90s and former Euro Disney shareholder, I was very excited when the second park was announced. I attended the special shareholders meeting for its presentation, bought the new shares for the capital increase to fund the new park and was following the construction...

Maybe that's their interpretation of contemporary theming - or just an excuse to justify the bare ceiling. :D Though it looks closer to the actual current Walt Disney Studio Store in Burbank rather than one of the Hollywood themed stores in DHS.

Was just watching the video of Tom Fitzgerald and Natacha Rafalski talking about the Walt Disney Studios' new concept, theme & name. Tom Fitzgerald mentioned that the entrance courtyard would no longer be in the past but become completely contemporary including the used graphics, background...

The only enthusiastic reactions to the new name that I have seen was mainly by some selected Disney influencers and content creators focusing on the expansion. The average comments about the new name on the DLP social media channels, YouTube comments sections, etc. went from "meh" to "too...

Great recap & insights indeed. It is also confirming what we had discussed before - TWDC is still profiting heavily from those royalty payments of DLP. While the management fees might no longer be in place, service fees by WDI for R&D as well as project management for new attractions potentially...

Local newspaper Le Parisien is mentioning the Lion King as the next world to be added after Frozen: “A new immersive world, the concept and design of which are currently being finalized by the imagineers (engineers), will further strengthen the attractiveness,” indicates the Park. More details...

If you were ask to pick a different park name, what would it be? If they have to add Adventure to the name, at least it should be a bit more specific and still be connected to the magic of movies - e.g. Disney Cinematic Adventure or directly Disney Cinemagic. If the emphasis is more on the...

Telling your kids that when walking down Adventure Way in Adventure World you will encounter Adventure Bay might lead to some major wrong expectations.

I was hoping for DLP to finally reveal the full details with new concept art about the new "theme" and storyline of WDS. Considering we have been shared almost all of those changes and teased about the plans by insiders more than a year ago, an official announcement was long overdue. At least I...

True. But even that makes it confusing. So you have an Adventure Land in the first park und Adventure World as the second park. :rolleyes: I think it's a very odd and weak choice.

Just saw this post on the French forum (Disney Central Plaza). Interesting insights if reliable. At least it all sounds very reasonable to me. Source: Disney Central Plaza It's an automated translation to English as the original post is in French.

Bob's & Mike's Lucrative Franchise Hodgepodge Disneyland Parc 2 - Rise of the IP The other Parc in Paris (Top IP) Though seriously, I would not be surprised if it is something like Disney's Cinematic Adventure Park or even Disney's CinéMagique Parc. Shouldn't we be able to see the new name...

Another clue about WDS changing its name: Adding it to this forum section as well for further discussions. Without knowing the new name yet, my initial reaction: sounds like another Marketing initiative rather than a WDI/creative driven decision to me.

The piece of land you are referring to is currently set as a green/nature space and not considered to be built on. DLP could change that in the future by rededicating another large area for this purpose. Maybe they will even make the Lion King area bigger than the initial SWGE area and already...

Lion King is supposed to take the space where a lighter version of SW:GE was planned to be. You can see this area with yellow-coloured buildings in the plan below - below the Stunt Show arena. The actual size and shape of Lion King would probably differ though. You would turn left at the lake...

There are many things like the updates to WDS Frontlot, the Studio One makeover, the changes (greenification) to Production Courtyard, etc. that we already know of but actually have not been officially announced yet. Apart from the already ongoing work and closure notes, we have not seen any...
