  1. From an interview with Bob Iger:

    Disney’s theme park in Shanghai that’s opening in 2015 will avoid the troubles that have plagued the company’s resort in Paris, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Robert Iger said.

    The Shanghai park won’t have the debt overhang that hurt Disneyland Paris from the start, and will benefit from a larger local population base and stronger economy, Iger said yesterday in an interview on Bloomberg Television

    “Euro Disney’s troubles date back a couple of decades and had to do with a financial structure of that business almost at inception,” Iger said in an interview from the Vanity Fair New Establishment Summit in San Francisco. “They took on a lot of debt. Their pricing models were off, and they ended up in an economy that was very, very bumpy over the years.”

  2. That pic is from a slideshow that is full of really interesting info and pictures. It was posted here months ago, when WDI actually won the award. I'm not sure why Disney Parks Blog took so long to write about it.

  3. Chevrolet may have fled Europe, but it now will be the "official car" of the Shanghai Disney Resort, Chevy global chief Tim Mahoney said today.

    Shanghai GM, General Motors' joint venture with SAIC, will build a "large-scale iconic attraction" at Shanghai Disneyland.

    GM provided few details about the new attraction.

    They don't need those classic stuff from EVERYWHERE ELSE.
    I like this special park.

  6. Finally they've got power!

    Shanghai Disney Resort recently passed a new milestone with the powering up of the resort's 35-kilovolt substation.

    With the support from the State Grid Shanghai Municipal Electric Power Company, the substation is providing power to the resort development and will supply the future operation of the resort's theme park and parking facilities.

    As a key infrastructure project for Shanghai Disneyland, the resort's Magic Kingdom-style theme park, the substation is a perfect example of how innovative design and technology practices are being used in achieving the digitalisation of the resort development.

    According to the unofficial attraction list, I think there is no Haunted Mansion or Mystic Manor attraction.

  8. I assume that the Haunted Mansion type attraction will be Mystic Manor from Hong Kong Disneyland and the Splash Mountain type attraction I believe is the Roaring Rapids attraction planned for Adventure Isle A.K.A Adventureland.
