Is it time for another park?

[Mickey92]

I know you guys find these post annoying but i was thinking of it when i went to DisneyLand Resort Paris (DLRP) a few weeks ago. They only have two parks and in fairness Disney Studios is pretty small compared to the Disney Park. If you look at an overhead shot of Disneyland Paris you will see that there is tonnes of space around the resort. Would this space be used for future development into another park? Heres a picture of what i mean:

Whilst I would love to see a new park, I don't think it's going to happen:

1) The studios still has plenty of room for improvement
2) I beleive that Disney need to build additional hotels in order to meet obligations set down during the land aquisition which stated they must have a certain, maximum occupancy capability (I can't remember the number) by some time in the near future.

Personally I can't see any more hotels being built either but it may not be an option.

I would love to see Disney Village extended though!

Europes version of Epcot anyone?

In a picture of Disneyland Paris they did include SSE and also the monorail in, I remember reading it in a blog, it was a shame that didn't happen.

I don't think there is any need for another park at the moment. I think that maybe when WDS has been developed in around 10 years time.

There has been rumour about one like Tokyo's water theme park, that would be nice and you probably wouldn't need to wait with development for the other two parks.

Europes version of Epcot anyone?

Well... by 2017, Disney is contractually obligated to begin work on a third gate in France. The last instance I can find of Disney mentioning the European EPCOT dates to 1995; I assume that idea is long-dead, and more recent rumors mention a park with a nature theme. It’s been speculated that Disney is obligated to only put something on the third park plot, which was partially the basis of their interest last year in bringing an F1 racetrack to the resort. By putting the racetrack on the plot intended for the third park, they could buy time to raise funds for a third park while finishing the first two. By the time they were ready for a third gate, it would be easy to remove the racetrack.

While the F1 deal fell through, it’s unclear what Disney intends to do with the land. It’s conceivable that the possibilities could range from a parking lot to a theme park...

The studios really needs more rides and expanding before they even think about another park. At the moment the only rides i go on there are; Rock 'n' Rollercoaster, Tower of Terror, Crushes coaster, and if i feel like it the backlot tour. They also have a little kids cars ride and shows. More rides then new park. I would love a Toy Story Midway Mania there.
