I'm sure that florida's fantasy land will be one of the best if not the best, once this huge project is done.
but the landscaping in paris is just astounding.

That would be amazing. Well their fantasyland is very poetic and french inspired.
I wonder what kind of roofing would be a good fit.

DLP's F-land is phenomenal (of course, so aren't all the other lands). Actually looks better than pics above as many things (especially Alice) have been rehabbed since then (I may get pics online myself at some point).
And while I do believe MK's will look great when completed, there are still two caveats to that.
1.) we don't know whether or to what extent any of the 'older' sections of the land will be improved.;
and
2.) even if this area is as spectacular as some fanbois want to believe, it still will not equal Paris or Anaheim due to the simple fact that they both have far more attractions to begin with ... one top notch Mermaid ride, doubling Dumbo and swapping out Tentland meet and greets for better themed ones doesn't equal MK suddenly leap-frogging Paris and Anaheim. Oh, and let's not forget that Mermaid is going on a large chunk of the site of what was once a major E-Ticket in a lushly landscaped area of its own as well.

I was thinking the same thing. I thought people were turned off by quantity?:shrug:

Um, no. Making assumptions is dumb.
I base quality on the entire package.
Both DL and DLP have amazing Fantasylands. They are beautiful. They are large, yet feel intimate. They have oodles of detail. But they also HAVE LOTS OF QUALITY ATTRACTIONS.
And that's what folks go to Disney parks for, in large part.
Otherwise, DAK and TDS would be the most visited Disney parks on the planet.
It's about a lot more than atmosphere. That's important, but you also need substance.
Anaheim and Paris both have that. MK doesn't. This will certainly help, but put it ahead of the others? Um ... I will wait to judge, but I doubt it!

Sorry guys, but I agree with him. DL and DLP's have quantity and quality.
MK's will be great, but it won't have enough to bring it up to speed with these two resorts' Flands, IMO.

It doesn't matter whether it looks good and is well executed. If the concept is flawed' it won't matter. That's like saying a video game system with stunning graphics but bad games is good just because of the graphics.

I'm excited for the new expansion, I just hope there are a few things for boys like Eddie Sotto mentioned.

I'm more of a quality over quantity kind of person. HELLO. I'm a DAK fan...
I see DLP's as quality. Even though I've never been there, I want to go there so much! There Storybook Canal, Casey Jr., Alice's Maze, and Teacups look more amazing than some things in TDS. The sights, not the rides, make me want to visit. I strongly beleive that the MK's new Fantasyland will capture that essence too. At least more than half of it at least.

I like quality, but I agree with '74 we need more quality attractions.

He made it sound like he was going only off quantity.
