By the way, Bear in the Big Blue House is certainly popular in Britain, particularly wih my two year old daughter.

Originally Posted By fgth I just wanted to add that there are a lot of Bear in the big Blue House merchandise in the French Disney Store (fall/winter collection clothese and many, many stuffs). It is very strange becuase only the people who have Disney Channel can know this character. I'd love to see the MGM show here in France.

Originally Posted By bhb007 The park actually looks good... and I was quite cynical. I think that they made some good CHOICES with this place. Not to DCA bash, but it seems like this park will take advantage of Dinsey's strengths (good stories, good shows, a sense of nostalgia, etc.). I'd have rather seen something like this installed in Anaheim (even if it meant fewer attractions) than numerous less inspired shows... something like say the Golden Zephyr or Jumping Jellyfish. Anyway, good article. Cost doesn't have to limit imagination and this place seems like it has plenty of that. BUT- I was surprised that they chose RnR as the big E-Ticket ride... The track and launch GREATLY resemble a slightly suped up version of Space Mtn. at DLP. Sort of like having DL's Indy and AK's Dinosaur right next door to each other... Thought they could have done better with that one. Oh well... still sounds fun... -Bond in Cinci

The reason why the track was installed so early on this attraction was that the interior of the ride will be far more complex and will not use a lot of dark elements as Space Mountain in Paris does. This will also maintain the theming of the studios without having to create a G Force Records area. Yippee!! Something else unique for Paris!
