Disneyland Paris: General Discussion

[Benjsh]

Would rather a Zootopia area than bloody boring Avatar.

We all have our own tastes and opinions but that might be the worst take of all time. Haha!

Zootopia + Frozen + Lion King would definitely be overkill. I think you need the 3rd IP aimed more towards teenagers/young adults to offset the other two personally. Whether that's a new Star Wars land, Avatar or something else I don't know.

Although it might be pushing 2040 before we see a third land added so they need to be confident in the longevity of the IP I guess.

Having been to Zootopia in Shanghai it's a very good themed world because there's a lot going on that makes it feel alive. Like an actual living city. Hot Pursuit is great also, although I havn't done many other trackless rides to compare it too.
The appeal of Avatar is that nothing like Flight of Passage exists at DLP.

 

[AstroDan]

What DLP seriously needs is a new ride with a ride system that is PROPERLY innovatve, or cutting edge. We see rides at Disney parks around the world that are much more cutting edge, yet DLP seem insistent on building nicely dressed classic flume rides. That isn't to say these rides are unwelcome, but come on. For the £100+ daily entry fee, do better.

Bit small!

Seriously though, they're kind of boring. Missing a key feature at the front I think such as a character sculpture. Just looks like the bare minimum a log flume needs to be.

A "book report"-style log flume based on one of Disney's greatest and most beloved modern films is what I'd consider playing the hits in the best possible way,

Alas, I fear you may be stretching the definition of modern at this point.

Please. I have very clear memories of getting the Lion King on VHS in my Christmas Stocking the year it was released on home video. It cannot have been that long ago. Right?

To be fair, the Simba mud drawing or whatever is on the front.

They are bland. They’ve gone for the most literal interpretation of "log flume" possible.

I totally missed that. To be fair, it's absolutely tiny!

I mean, he was small I guess, but he was still a lion...

Let's just be glad they based it on the original animated version and not the "live-action" one.

Boat is a boat. Can't say I was expecting much from it.

The ability to float might be a nice consideration.
