This is from ClickMagique - unofficial Disneyland Resort Paris
News- and Photoletter...
In the wake of the AGM of The Walt Disney Company, taking place today, the top tier management of TWDC took part in the Walt Disney Investor Conference on Tuesday, first of February. Jay Rasulo represented the Walt Disney Parks and Recreation Department and presented the strategy for the five resorts, the Disney Vacation Club, Disney Cruise Lines and ESPN Zone. Certainly the main emphasis was put on the 50th anniversary celebration of Disneyland Anaheim, but Jay Rasulo also offered a first glimpse of the upcoming attractions for the Disneyland Resort Paris. Besides photos taken at the other Disney theme parks to showcase the Tower of Terror and the interior of Buzz Lightyear's AstroBlaster he also presented for the first time a new, official artwork for the Toon Studios section of the Walt Disney Studios Paris.
The rather atmospheric drawing is only a snapshot of how this area might look like under ideal conditions, but it shows some neat details. And I am not talking about the outdoor bumper car like ride next to the Art of Animation building, but about the Finding Nemo dark ride. The ride which is supposed to be a mixture of a dark ride with coaster elements similar to a wild mouse, maybe even including spinning elements, seems to feature an elevated out door part in front of the building. Interestingly the track in the drawing looks more like a normal coaster with tilted curves instead of a wild mouse like set up. But then this is a promotional drawing not meant to present the exact future look. Anyway while this looks cool such feature is more commonly known from traveling fun fair ghost trains. It needs to be seen how it is integrated into the story of the ride experience.
