Quote from: "Pete's Dragon"Why do they need to destroy it? Why can they not extend past Casy's Jnr Railway where the giant green gates are ?

That could be due to traffic flow reasons, when Belle's Christmas Village is constructed that whole area is shut off, that would mean their super-duper area would be blocked off and that wouldn't make much sense.

Yeah, and it's not really Disney's style to have one narrow road leading to one land without any other ways to go. Though some Toon Towns are a bit like that.

Fantasyland Station as a gate to Toon Town... hmmm, would be nice too.

QuoteNO, NO, NO! the california version is the badest of them all! If they should make a pooh ride, that's not the tokyo one, build the florida/hong kong version instead! So much better :D!

Well I guess everyone has its own taste.  I preferred the one in California.  :)

Me too. Although to be honest, there is very little difference to me between the WDW and DL versions, though DL has a nicer and shorter queue. Personally though, I would not want to see money wasted on a Pooh attraction at DLP, but I am biased because I hate him and his friends sooooo much. I would honestly rather watch Hanna Montana, and that is saying something.
since 2001 (many before that)

I performed at the Fantasy Festival Stage with my college choir in 2004, and it was such a great experience! While I think people have enjoyed this theatre over the years, i think a bit of rejuvenation in that area of Fantasyland will be so much better for the park!

Also, as much as I love Pooh, I think to have the Little Mermaid attraction in this space would be a great addition!

I know 3 things what would do, Extend it, Tinker Bell Meet 'N' Greet & Little Mermaid all in one building.

Quote from: "Owain"So, i just went on google earth and print screened some of fantasyland and backstage.



In red i circled what i thought could be the exspansion area.

And in black i circled buildings or other things behind the station.

Does anybody no what they are ?

Quoting what was said above,

Those buildings behing the Fantasy Festival Stage is the dressing rooms for the performers because i performed there with my theatre schooll in 2002 and it hasnt changed since. :)

And they still use it for big fireworks displays such as the 14th of July

I really hope this does happen one day  [-o<

I'd also love to see the Beauty and the Beast AA show realised too, that was be an amazing addition to the park, and something unique for DLP!

Isn't this attraction rumoured to be built behind the Fantasyland Train Station??

I really hope that it gets built. A new dark ride for DLRP would be great.

Its rumoured, that The Little Mermaid will go behind the Fantasyland Station, alongside a Winnie the Pooh dark ride.

It will happen, Disney loves to clone rides.
