MAGICal DLP News, Rumours & Thoughts

It’s common in existing buildings but new use of asbestos is banned in UK and European Union. The US actually does not have a similar complete ban on asbestos but it is gone from building materials. There have also been efforts to remove asbestos from buildings.

Asbestos handling depends on the type and what you are doing. A lot of the time its OK to leave asbestos in place so long as its not disturbed. Its when you start disturbing it by building works etc that you need to be careful, as this is when the toxic particles tend to be released into the air.

It really is amazing how many places used asbestos in all kinds of things from concrete to brake pads

Marvel rumor passes the smell test with the land opening next year. Can’t say I’d mind a 150 foot Scarlett Johansson on the castle…

I mean, if they are going to do it anyway, I might as well look.

Throw Thor up there, too, so everyone is happy.

I thought the Star Wars section was very jarring and didn’t fit at all. Getting rid of BatB and throwing Marvel in there now, too? May as well make it all live action remake content, plus SW and Marvel - It’d be a true Iger-IP-Fest!

You do know that the BATB segment was the live action right ?

That rings a bell now that you mention it. I probably forgot because the SW theme was so jarring it overpowered my brain.

Just what DLP needs. More “bought IP” instead of using their own classic content.

Bought vs taken (mostly IP without the property part- Brothers Grimm and the like) Why is one better or worse than the other?

There was a pavilion at the 1939/40 NY World's Fair dedicated to the new "wonder" material, asbestos LOL

Its not. But I think Marvel and Star Wars are not castle park materials. Wouldn’t bother me in the studios next door…

I mean, the park has Star Tours, so I guess that one gets a pass for me.

Can't believe its taken them this long! It looks so much better, and its hard to believe they kept the green tents for so long!

There’s a while yet until it’s complete but it’s a good indicator of the finished project.

Read a rumor on twitter about Walt's becoming an AP lounge for the highest tier members and I hope that's not true.

Great ad but why isn’t edna following her own advice?

That would be awful (even before the plague I did have one). Just open it back as a restaurant, its not like its not needed.

If they want to do something like, just like infinity pass holders into the shareholders longue

Yes, what have they got against restaurants at DLP?

In my experience, dining can be frustrating as the restaurants fill to capacity around mealtimes. However, not only will they not add any more, they keep the ones they have bolted shut. It seems strange to me that pricey, sit-down restaurants aren't something Disneyland Paris feels it can make money on.
