 *'''The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror''' - supposedly a brilliant attraction, this hotel with a shoddy lift (probably Schindler's) is still unfortunately operational with bellhops as deranged as those who run Disney.  Is this to do with production, certainly not.
 *'''CinéMagique''' - In fact, not a bad attraction that started with the park's first season.  Certainly better than Merlin's Eye-4D experiences (for one, you get a seat and the film isn't in inglorious 4D).  Is this to do with production, no.

 One of the greatest fails of the park is to be found in Adventureland.  Had money once again been no issue (and, being Disney, these common occurrences are quite odd), there would be an Indiana Jones Land and the story of Parc Disneyland might be a bit different.  However, it could be debated the story wouldn't be different at all as Indiana Jones et le Temple du Péril is still a rollercoaster with FRENCH in the name.  Sure, the layout's quite boring and it has only one inversion, but these really aren't much to having FRENCH.  No wonder the GREEDY FAT AMERICANS that run Disney didn't give it enough money to make an Indiana Jones land.  This fail means that Adventureland is, in fact, quite big and has little to offer in attractions.  It also means there is a theoretical clash between themes of Indiana Jones and pirates
-*'''''Pirates of the Caribbean''' - Arrrr 'tis the only ride not in scurvy FRENCH in Adventureland, until ye go in and find ye carn't make a head nor tail of what the pirates be sayin'.  'Tis sad as it ruins the experience and looks more like a riverboat ride on the River Seine during the FRENCH Revolution.  It also be the only Pirates of the Caribbean not yet to have been touched by the film, but that could change next year.''

 *'''''La Cabane des Robinso'''n - It's a treehouse that has a FRENCH name...need I say more?  In fairness, it is the least plastic attraction in Adventureland, but at the same time shouldn't be in Adventureland because it clashes so much.  Whoever's idea it was that a treehouse is half way between pirates and Indiana Jones needs to be shot (probably a FRENCHIE).''
 *'''''Captain Hook's Ship''' - Yes, it's the most plastic thing you'll find in Adventureland.  It's so plastic, it might as well be made of Lego. Oh, and it has a galley that's never open, NEVER!''

 *'''Playhouse Disney''' - one of the worst attempts at adding another attraction by Disney, this walk-through attraction will get kids and parents raring to run out of the attraction faster than the exit of 'The Asylum' at [[Thorpe Park]].  However, this running is not from any scares inside, but from the sheer boredom that lies within. Only attempt if you really have run out of wanting re-rides.  Is this to do with Production, yes it is.

 Apart from Disney Studios 1, there's a fountain and that's pretty much it for Front Lot.  It really is Disney's equivalent of Storybook Land.

 The park opened to the public on 16th March 2002, but by then it had had its first FAIL written in its history books.  The park was in fact originally destined to open in 1995, but due to the GREEDY FAT AMERICANS wanting more for themselves, this was another money cut-back from the park.  It was only when the park was making 'money' (or perhaps the FRENCH were just getting tired of the same old park getting barely anything new and exciting) that the GREEDY FAT AMERICANS decided to pump some money into the resort and make a new park.  Unfortunately, even though it was a new park, the FRENCH barely got any thrill out of it at all.  The three closest rides they were given were:
 *A Vekoma (ouch) launch 'rollercaster' (oh, come on!  It should be called a rollercaster due to its theming outside) based on a band that isn't FRENCH in a building that doesn't depict any FRENCH features at all.

 *'''''Les Mystères du Nautilus''' - Very nice walkthrough attraction showing you round the Nautilus from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (a FRENCH-named attraction for a FRENCH novel and a GREEDY FAT AMERICAN film).  One of the only places in Parc Disneyland you probably won't find a queue for, unless some FRENCHIE has decided to stop and look at something because that something is in fact FRENCH.  Typically, the walkthrough lasts 2-3 mins as everyone just wants to see Mr. Squid and occasionally looks at other parts of it saying positive words like 'Ooooh, that's nice' or 'I didn't see that last time', the latter probably being because they also spent 2-3 minutes in it last time they came.''

 This park is themed to a 'working' film studio and, unlike all of Disney's studio parks originally, this did/does not in fact have any sort of working studio at all.  Another FAIL to Walt Disney Studios.  So, it can be safely said that everything seen and done in this park is NOT for actual filming.

 Aaaah yes.  You've made it to Hollywood.  You walk into Disney Studio 1 not to find a set, but a random road going straight through the building.  You hope that this is in fact part of the scene.  You come a cross a camera and some lighting, you're hopes raise, but are lowered when you find buildings conflicting with each other in design, making it all look a bit nasty and tacky.  You've walked all the way through, seen the plastic tat in the shop you've gone past, you go through the doors and find......yes, you're still in that WRETCHED country.  However much the imagineers designed the Studio to take the fact off your mind, it really doesn't work, you're still in THAT country after all.  They even use English on the posters.  Yes, actual English, not something close like Franglais, but actual English.
