Ok I got this off scream scape, real or not I hope so as this will be the most exciting Disney news ever!
According to a rough translation of this page (http://www.zuzudisney.com/index.htm?/filiale/wdp-dlrp-disneyland3.htm), a presentation was sent out to the Euro Disney investment partners describing plans for the resort from 2009 to 2012, when they will celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Disneyland Paris. From the sound of things they will spend 800 million Euros by then on several new attractions and refurbishment.
On the refurbishment side they are planning to spends lots of time and money sprucing up Disneyland Paris between 2009 and 2011. Included overhauls will be a complete refurbishment of the Swiss Family Treehouse as well as the conversion of the Autopia to use the same electric powered vehicles being used in Hong Kong. In 2011 the castle itself will undergo a transformation where they may add an additional tower that will house a luxury apartment suite for special guests. Finally they talk about two new E-tickets on the way to the park, an all new version of Splash Mountain that will go somewhere in Adventureland and be given an all new theme. The new story will touch upon a variety of other Disney movies and characters such as The Rescuers, Tarzan, Robin Hood and Little Mermaid for the final splashdown. The other new attraction seems to be called The Safari of Timon and Pumba and may be built near the Indiana Jones coaster.
Meanwhile at the Walt Disney Studios Paris it sounds like they have plans to upgrade the Rock ‘n Roller Coaster and Armageddon attractions somewhat. The Studio Tram tour will add a new Narnia forest scene. As for new attractions, the website claims that Soarin’ over France will be installed somewhere between Cinemagique and Stitch Live and then they will begin work on Expediton Mont Blanc, seeming to be a copy of Florida’s Expedition Everest. It also mentions two new possible dark rides themed to Monsters Inc and Ratatouille.
In short, this sounds like an amazing, too good to be true, plan of action for the Disneyland Paris resort… except for one thing. The timing… it is April 1st after all so I’ve got to wonder if this is all just one big joke or not. As I seem to recall, the origins of April Fools Day itself do go back to France after all. Anyone else want to back this up either way?
