Oh yeah, it's not great. At least it does give more stuff to do at that park, gives us some dark rides, animatronics and general greenery that has been absent from that park for so long

One of the issues is that Disney doesn't view having the parks as global draws to be important. (Having people visit all the parks isn't a priority to them). So they don't see the need to have DLP be super differentiated, and thus they're okay with Studios being a mish mash of little random things for marketing purposes. I also think that they don't see Efteling and Europa Park as competition, so they don't feel the need to improve the resort overall (hence why you have nothing new at the castle park in 20 years). Hopefully Universal in the UK does well and that can lead to longer term investment in DLP (years too late but better than nothing).
If it happens and is sufficient to be a threat. DLP is in danger of becoming as complacent as Orlando

In the US $1bn buys a Galaxy's Edge. And that was before COVID and the inflation spike and construction is generally more expensive in France. So whilst they are going for quantity over quality if they had spent the money in the same way as the US it would have added far less capacity and resort acreage to the resort.

Really not talking about the quantity of the stuff they’ve build or are building. But man, a lot of things they’re doing could’ve been much better without a single extra cent. Many decisions don’t make creative sense at all. Very frustrating.
