I seriously doubt this is the shanghai DL model (or hope it is not).  There is a normal outdoor steel roller coaster, and that sort of move has no room in the DIsney Canon.

Also no castle ... at least I don't see any but I do see what looks like Phantom Manor!!! :shock: It is beside the bottom patch of water on the right.
There is no magic in this!!!

What's that....about £5 billion...........mickey is getting very expensive tastes these days  :-k

[TimmyTimmyTimmy]

The park could end up massive if they spend the cash in a good way. Building in China is cheap.

It's hard to tell if these are official or not. For all we know it could have been a kid with some felt tips drawing over his father's map.

Take a look at this...


It's on the following website http://www.gregpro-artist.com , he's the guy that did the Magic Kingdom Fantasyland expansion painting.

Hmmm  :-k
I don't think that these are real plans - sry.
I think it looks like a "MS Paint" work. I can do that a 100% better...
And I don't think that a 5 billion project can't afford a proper plan...

Even Disney & More blog had the picture up a few days ago (long time after this forum), so atleast for now this all there really is on the new park. True or not? only time will tell:)

THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY REACHES ANOTHER MAJOR MILESTONE ON SHANGHAI THEME PARK PROJECT

BURBANK, Calif. – November 3, 2009 – The Walt Disney Company today announced that the Project Application Report (PAR) for a Disney theme park in the Pudong district of Shanghai has received approval from the relevant authorities of the central government of China.

"China is one of the most dynamic, exciting and important countries in the world, and this approval marks a very significant milestone for The Walt Disney Company in mainland China," said Robert A. Iger, president and CEO of The Walt Disney Company.

The PAR approval will enable Disney and its Shanghai partners to move forward toward a final agreement to build and operate the park and begin preliminary development work. Upon completion of the final agreement, the project's initial phase would include a Magic Kingdom-style theme park with characteristics tailored to the Shanghai region and other amenities consistent with Disney's destination resorts worldwide.

Having just returned from China earlier this year before finishing in MKHK.. Hong Kong is fine but  I just hope and pray that this does not happen..

Believe me its one park I won't be going to, things must be bad in the boardroom if your making deals with China..

Could you specify your opinion?
Why couldn't this work in China?
And why shouldn't Disney try to make some money from this big a country?

Maybe Disney should dramatically increase the quality of Hong Kong before building another park?

I agree with your point. Why open another park, when an existing one is so below standard?
