Paris Rumors

by Kris Van de Sande on April 29, 2005

Disneyland Resort Paris has just posted the first annual results of 2004 and 2005, and to say it short, it shows that the parks are getting better then before!

As you may know the resort will continue to have a news attraction every year until 2008… (Buzz Lightyear in 2006, Toon Studios in 2007, and The Tower of Terror in 2008…). So there is no possibility to have a new Star Tours before 2012, because no new ride is planned before.

So we have different possibilities :

  • George Lucas could impose every Resort to have new films (as reported in C3) and the WDC could help Paris
  • It will be planned after 2012
  • Or it is a secret project

Because the “Disney Central Plaza” forum reported that Disneyland Paris “had a new film for a year”… Rumor of course… So is it a DLRP project ? Time will tell soon…

New Arrivals Coming Up

by Brian Curran on April 1, 2005

The Star Tours in Anaheim got a new arrival and departure board.

On it is also a planet called Panna. If you have NO clue what happened there, you must try and see the Holiday Special cartoon, introducing Boba Fett. Panna is the planet where it all takes place.
