It looks better in person.

Yep

before I get too upset and remember I was meant to be there in five days. Cest la vie. I have my health.

One’s health is THE most important thing to look after right now. Still sad that your trip isn’t happening as planned, but hopeful it will still go on at a later date!

I bet they felt extra pressure with Ratatouille in Paris because it’s in Paris.

Also, I’m still convinced they aren’t finished painting Ratatouille in Orlando yet. The existing buildings all have a dingy coat of paint that mutes the color and makes the buildings look old and weathered.

The area in Paris was designed in a different time, when they cared about how things looked. Since 2016ish it’s clear they don’t give a rat’s , as evidenced by this, Tron, and of course, Guardians.

The problem is guests rate attractions, not sight lines. Sight lines are subliminal. Just because it doesn’t show up anywhere on their spreadsheets doesn’t mean it has no effect on guests.

I'm hoping the buildings end up looking antiqued. The paint job on the last pictures I saw, appeared too bright and new to be consistent with the real Paris.

It makes me happy that "Impressions de France" is marked on the map.

Even beyond that, Rat (and more importantly the mini land it resides in) carried the burden of fixing the studios park, a concrete wasteland of warehouses, cheap clones, and garish decor that made the worst parts of DCA and DHS look like DisneySea in comparison.

I love how the Eiffel Tower is just standing on some buildings.

 

[Disney Analyst]

Seriously, the fact they just gave in and were like “just put the tower on the roof, everyone knows now.”

 

[disneyC97]

I remember park maps in the late 80s and 90s showing it on the roof so this isn’t a first.

They’ve done that on park maps off and on for decades

Looks practically ready to go, doesn’t it?

If construction resumes in June at the earliest, this expansion and Rat can still open this year. I just don't about summer even though it looks done already.

The working assumption was that we were 10-12 weeks from opening on the day they closed the parks.

There's still some scaffolding up, and some buildings still look like they need aging/weathering.

Open it up on opening day of Food and Wine

They can cut that in half. All workers from Tron and Cosmic Rewind should prioritize this to open first, just like what they did with Galaxy's Edge where Runaway Railways workers were asked to help Galaxy's Edge.

Disney can’t move employees from one company and make them work for another. Different parts of construction are done by different people with different skills. Imagineers who work on final installation are not the same people hanging drywall or exterior metal panels.

The biggest issue Rat will face in the short term is cast.
