Honestly dont think it matters what language its in. The one in Florida is in English and it's as dull as hell. An hour of my life I wont ever get back.

Disneyland Paris: General Discussion

Don't think Annah likes speaking french she seems to have a crick in her neck just before the ice castle.
It's a perfectly serviceable ride but not e-ticket. 5 minutes jumping around a few scenes from the film. (But far from complete)
This is ment to be the glue for the whole new park/rename and rename and it's rather weak. That and a tea cups ride. It's funny to me that really the park is only up one ride effectively. As as soon as they open this new land they close the other frozen theater attraction.

Its not something I’d go on repeatedly but having been on it I’d disagree on the e-ticket status. It’s as much as Pirates is but boosted by the incredible popularity of the IP.
The park will be up by one very high throughput attraction, the teacups and also the wave swinger opening shortly after but don’t forget the land itself is part of the attraction and it’s a massive new space combined with the lake.
A bit like Harry Potter where people happily mill around the environment, enjoying the immersion and posing for photos.

The immersion will be quite different here for the 'frozen land' from what I've read it's ok. I think it also depends if you class Ratatouille as a e-ticket or have been to Epcot. The up swinger won't appear till next year I believe. So this year it's not quite on par with Pautons Park in my eyes who seem to invest and innovative (2+ rides plus a refurb)
Yes the new show could be good but I have a feeling that stripping the drones from Disneyland Park means they maybe worried to pull people over from the castle show. From my views of the show alot maybe disappointed because it seems only one area will have a clean projection screen of water.
Add to this the middle of the summer it will be light (blue hour) when the show is on and water is not a hard surface so the projection will almost be completely lost, it's kind of understandably going to be a bit of a disappointment for many in the summer months.
I'm just saying that this +1 attraction (closing other frozen attraction and meet and greet) is not going to change this park from a half day park that's arguably the worst Disney park to anything higher than worst park. Tell me a Disney park it's going to be better than?
While I agree the lion king land will possibly start changing this direction its still a long way off. Frozen took 7 years? Lion king is in year 2?

We enjoyed this park on our recent visit - the last hour before closing we could get Marvel, webs, ToT and crush done multiple times with minimal queues. I will miss that next time!
I didn’t realise the frozen show was closing. That’s annoying as we have never seen it.
My worry is the bottle neck in Disney village if everyone is exiting from BOTH parks at the same time. It was already bad enough after the fireworks with one. Maybe they both finish at different times although can’t imagine one being massively longer than the other?! We waited a good 10 minutes for the crowds to clear but still caught up with them.
I didn’t manage to see the drones - they were only on 1/3 times we were there due to “inclement weather” and I lucked out, but I could see the gaps in the show where they were supposed to be (and I hadn’t seen it before but still noticed). Hopefully they fill these gaps somehow!

Its going to be hugely popular this new Frozen land, especially for families with daughters.
Selfishly our family was hoping for Galaxy's Edge or Pandora though and we're far more intrigued by the Lion King attraction.
DLP cant lose though really with Frozen. The little ones will love it.

To claim that what Paultons is doing is somehow equivalent to this is ridiculous! Breaking it down to simply 'how many rides are being added vs how many are being removed' completely ignores the significance this development will have for the park.
Firstly the Frozen Ride / Land is a huge investment, that while not the most original will both draw a lot of people in and add a very high capacity ride that can handle the numbers, something the studios park desperately needs.
What's more important is that the park is expanding to double its size. Turning it from a strip of land you only visit to get on a few headline attractions to a park you might actually want to spend time exploring.
Sure when the new area opens it won't be enough alone to make the former studios park good. But it now has chance to grow into a park with its own identity. Anchored by Adventure Way, which will finally make the park feel more like a park and not a disjointed studio backlot.

Disney have probably spent 10 times more on the buildings, mountain and facades in this new land than they have on the actual boat ride if not more. That's just what they do. You can't really compare a regional UK park's new Viking area with this, I fully agree there with Tim.
A chair Swing themed to UP is a curious choice though for a flat ride installation. I have to say I don't really like the modern trend though with Disney of adding a 'brand new land' and only have one ride plus some live entertainment / meet and greets. There's no excuse really for not adding a supporting flat ride in the World of Frozen or maybe even a junior coaster along with the boat ride. Maybe that will come much further down the line though but I doubt it.
