Re: Disneyland Paris videos on VaultDisney's YouTube channel

Thank you so much for bringing back such wonderful memories of when it seemed DLP could do no wrong. Indy backwards, the original and amazing Space Mountain, and all the water effects working on Big Thunder. Man, I really miss those days.

10 years ago, DLP was near perfect. Now, hmmm, some things (maintenance for example) have improved, but there now seems to be so much that has gone the wrong direction.

I completely agree. What's disconcerting is that we may not see anything on the scale of the original park ever again in the future. Walt Disney Studios and recent additions have proven that their priorities have shifted away from true quality in favor of quick guest satisfaction. Much of the earlier Disneyland Paris was designed when money was of no concern. Everything was built with high levels of elegance and craftsmanship, and no detail was left untouched. Under the current condition and direction of the resort, I would not expect any new additions to the park to contain the same level of artistry and attention to detail.

Re: Disneyland Paris videos on VaultDisney's YouTube channel

I know, it is depressing - Toy Story Playland - WTF!!!!

Tower of Terror was an excellent addition, and Hollywood Bvd made me think there was hope. But Crush Coaster, Cars, and TSPL show that there is little hope in the future. In fact, except for Hong Kong, every attraction under development by WDI are toon related.

It breaks my heart. As a kid growing up in DL in the 70's and 80's, it was all about the adventures Disney brought to life, and DLP knocked it up to 11. Sadly, their offer is not much better than regional parks now. So this year was the first time we skipped Halloween at DLP in 10 years, opting for local options instead.

If they were still producing the quality we know and love, I would have been at Paris this week instead. But what really annoys me are the European ignorami who eat this rubbish up.
