I think they removed the "Paris" because they decided to name the parks Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park. At the time they put that sign up, they were probably going to be called Disneyland Paris and Walt Disney Studios Paris.
I think they made the right choice...
I don't think so. Although it's now more understandable for guests that both Walt Disney Studios and Disneyland are two themeparks, I would have loved to see it called Disneyland Paris and Walt Disney Studios Paris. The name Paris would have given both parks some kind of class. Besides that, at the same time, it would show that the parks are a part of a larger global brand. As if the guests wouldn't knew that already, haha, but for some reason I like the word Paris over the word Park.
By the way; it would be so much easier to call Disneyland Park just Disneyland Paris. I mean, there is only one Disneyland Park and thats in California. The name Disneyland Paris says exactly which Disneyland is ment by someone. Thats the reason why I still often use the name Disneyland Paris by the way. :wink:
It seemed that even Disney in Orlando didn't knew how to call our Studios. At the entrance of the Stuntshow at Disney-MGM Studios I saw "Direct from Disney Studios Paris", while at the monorail the voice-over used "Walt Disney Studios in Paris", and at the banners at the parking lots they used "Lights, Motors, Action! Extreme Stuntshow. New Magic from Disneyland Paris". :roll:
