Fantasyland Photo Update: Pooh and Peter Pan

[mp2bill]

I like it better than it was before.

Same here. Regardless of what color it is, I think the new coat of paint just makes it look nicer.

Yeah, there's still a noticeable difference between the exterior at Disneyland USA.

Peter Pan's Flight at Disneyland

But, I do like the new color scheme for the WDW version. It's much better than the fuschia and orange that was there before. It's classier looking now, not as garish.

I do like this better than what WDW's got, but the one thing that bothers me about it is that this looks like it belongs more in Belgium or Holland than it does in England.

That's a valid question. People know that it's Peter Pan not just from the sign over the queue entrance:

Thanks- I can see the entrance in this one. In the other pic it is just a clock... I can't see he entrance sign really at all...

By the way- whoever answered my "if you have never been there" question with because we have been there.... you deserve a sign...:brick:

I can understand people being tired of the mideival faire tents, but if they do away with the buildings looking faire-ish, then don't you think the fast pass signs and such will look odd? Those look just like the banners flown at the ren fest, except with clocks attached to them and such. Ya get me?

So...they get redesigned.

The over all design of DL's FL is to invoke styles from all over Europe with a touch of fairy tales to them.

My point was that they have remained... they have not been redesigned.

Wow it really is looking like Belgium or Holland now with the lastest photos posted this afternoon. True doesnt coordinate with Pan's london one bit but still looking better and better.

:veryconfu Am I not picking up on the sarcasm or are you looking at something else (DL's pan or the building to the west of Pan, perhaps)?

no sarcasm, I guess I was referring more to the building connected to pan, not disneyland. this section:

:wave:Okay, just wasn't sure. I agree those buildings look better than ever.

I keep waiting for Samantha Brown or Rick Steves to pop up in front of it :lol:

Yeah, but I guess my point is that Peter Pan takes place, initially, in England.

I think they have enough chances to "invoke styles from all over Europe with a touch of fairy tales to them," with IASW, SWSA, PDJ, etc...

Speaking of swsa, theres been little talk about anything being done to snow white within the fantasyland changes. It too could really use a new facade and look on the outside. Theres been no action there, yet anyway.

Yes, our first Disney princess needs some love inside and out in my opinion! And also, I don't get why in FL you could be immersed in the middle of a European/Fairytale Village when your near the Village Haus, but then you go over to Small World and Pan you're in a fair, then you go over to the Skyway Station and your back to village theme, I mean is it hard to at least make the land consistent?

For WDI? no.
For TDO? Evidently yes.

 

[xdan0920]

Looks way better. Just keep those tents away.

 

[DisneyExplorer]

Hmmm, I'm thinking the lights on the front of the facade must be going back up at some point. The little electrical boxes are still there where the lights would cover them. They're painted blue but if you look closely, you can see them bulging out a little from the rest of the wall.

I must be in the minority, but I really like DL's version better.

You are not in the minority.
