Disneylsnd California and Paris are typically 2-3 day visit parks, max. many will be 1 day visits from people who live nearby. lots will be people who are visiting the area and include a day or two at the park as part of a general trip. Florida is a week or two doing theme parks every day...

there was a news story not long ago that said DLP offices got raided by french tax authorities. they were investigating profit-shifting especially around R&D. I wonder if that contributed to France getting it's own unique ride and land. that plus universal in the UK could hopefully see some...

i definitely agree that "pick an IP, plop it wherever you need to build next" is the approach they're taking, but a big advantage of frozen in paris (in my view) is that it borders a lake. the Frozen body of water serves a purpose as it links backstage area to the bigger show lake. I've not...

i really like DCA, it's different to a castle park, but the street entertainment is good, the lands are unique with their charm and it feels like a Disneyland to me. i didn't visit in the early years when I'm told it was horrible so maybe im lucky not to be scarred. i don't particularly enjoy...

ah yeah, forgot about those 4. that does add a fair bit. D and E ticket rides though i think it's pretty close. a few small flats might help DAW but the next big announcement i would put somewhere in adventureland.

paris is general is short on rides, and queue length can be a problem. the idea is to have a stroll, take in a show and pay for a fastpass here and there. I'd say eat in a nice restaurant but only if you book a year in advance. HSM = FF Buzz = web remy = PP Crush = Indy 4 flats in Toy story+...

i wouldn't go that far, lol. i wish it was easier for me to visit Orlando or LA

its hard to do direct comparisons, because the rides serve different purposes. think ToT is more fun than PM. Webs more fun than Buzz. SM would beat Flight force but the queue for FF is often 15 min or less, I'd take that over an hour for SM. Remy is a great dark ride, matching peter pan...

i find myself spending a fair bit of time in WDSP. it doesn't have the 'magic' feel of the others because the theming and design are ill fitting and in places ugly, but the attraction list isn't far off the main park (especially when BTM or HSM are down, a lot recently) and more importantly the...

the park is full quite often, the prices are high, i dont understand the need for this. i know merlin recently said their forward look prices are low, covid rebound is ending plus cost of living hitting family budgets, but right now i see no reason why disney have to cut corners.

park hopping is easy, as the parks are right next to each other, and gives you flexibility with crowds and such. if it's raining i always find studios better - just seems to have more indoor queues and stuff. over 3.5 days, unless it's easter or Christmas you won't need premier pass for...

bonbons are sweets, unless you mean the sweets that we actually call bonbons (like a chewy ball with a dusty sugar coating, usually white)

isn't there supposed to be a parade route that starts between lion king and frozen? the right side of the lake looks barren, backing onto the backside of Cars road trip, but assuming that ride stays there is only really space for a path leading onto an expansion plot on either side. neither...

there are nowhere near as many 'partner hotels' in Paris because Disney owns a lot more land than the other parks. staying onsite in a Disney hotel for a reasonable price is definitely a perk in DLP and another lakeside hotel is welcome. the other 2 are cheaper but there extra 5 mins walking...

I'd like to know if they paid anyone external for the idea to rename it all Adventure something

i read in forbes or ft recently that the French government accusations that DLP is undercharging US parks for work (so that DLP makes less profit and pays less of the high french taxes) still hasnt been fully resolved, and Disney may have to settle in some places. turmoil in french politics...

5 years is early on a project that will take 25 to build

possibly there was a change of heart and not enough time to update the concept art for D23. would a hybrid work? on balance i prefer the animated original but there are pros and cons on each with cartoon animation vs realistic cgi. for me, realistic animals would work better from a distance...

that new one (from the far side of the park) seems to show all the future expansion pods (based on where the paths go and where flat green land is left). if I'm reading it right, supposedly avatar will be in the corner adjacent to frozen and cars road trip (a bit hidden from the lake, which is...

there was also a story that they were under investigation for how they reported their PNLs internationally (Paris losses offset other parks as France is a high tax country), so would be needing to react to that. also - whilst i fully agree DAW needs something and ive watched my girls go from...
