InsideEars meets in the next couple of weeks, for its second gathering, I would expect more details to come out then. Especially the Marvel stuff.

Yeah I've seen a few of those invited discussing this online, seems like the consensous is that'll we'll have more info on the Marvel additions. Hopefully we'll get a few more images and maybe a few more hints about the other parts of the expansion.

FYI the event takes place on the evening of the 12th April.

I think it's more to do with Disney need to file permits which gives the game away somewhat in France.

I'll be live covering it on the night. I'll tweet live and recap here as quick as possible. It's three hours long so there's a good amount in it.

Jealous! Just been reading up on the ed92 forums, their main insider seems to suggest a lot is being announced over a few days next week but mainly at the event. Exciting times, will be glued to Twitter that evening.

Wow! It seems like we’re finally getting more news, after a veery long year and 2 months since they announced the expansion. :)

We'll have news about WDSP during that evening, don't worry. Also some news for DLP, but I expect less. I'll see what my friends can reveal from their side

(Tomorrow I'm invited by the other big park in Paris, which is always interesting haha. )

I hope That Paris should have Pandora world of avatar but with new rides, so it can boosts attendance.l and it can be unique only to paris.

Pandora in Paris would need to be inside a bio-dome like the Eden Project in the UK to work.
Star Wars, Marvel and Frozen all make more sense for attracting more paying customers to DLP.

  5. Alien Saucers are definitely in the image... + new Toy Story Land entrance
  6. New 'Main Street' to Lake
  7. Food / retail booths on way to lake
  8. Restaurant at entrance to lake?

Can I ask where are those forums now? As I used to read them, but since they changed it, I cannot find anything with any new posts.

Thanks, but one says page not found and the main forums don't have any posts earlier than 2 months ago apart from the 'introduce yourself' thread. Is it because I'm not logged in maybe? I used to be, but they didn't transfer my ID when they switched to their new site.
...(Okay I've finally been able to reset my password.. and all the forums only show up properly when you're signed in. Otherwise they're invisible or very basic!) I'm glad I've sorted it out anyway.

I know Disney would never do this but i think its actually a great idea, an indoor tropical avatar land would be something really different and would compliment the other parts of the park well IMO
