Anybody that still thinks Disneyland Paris is a failure clearly hasn’t done their research.

Disneyland Park is the 4th most popular theme park in the entire World. It had 12.6 million visitors in 2008 alone, beating parks like Epcot, Disney’s Animal Kingdom and all of the Universal Studios parks.

Since opening in 1992, the resort has had over 200 million visitors, the equivalent of the populations of the UK, France and Germany combined!

While the long queues and tacky parades can be off-putting, Disneyland Park is a beautifully designed, richly themed, and highly detailed tourist attraction, that a staggering amount of money and man hours went into creating.

The reason the staff at Disneyland Paris are so rude is because THEY ARE MOSTLY FRENCH who are the most ignorant, selfish, smelly people in the world.

Most businesses with “Euro” in the brand name have failed.
EuroDisney – EuroTunnel – Euro….

I think the problem with Euro Disney (better name than current “Disneyland Resort Paris” imho) was occupation rate of the hotels was low (you could and still can do the park in one day) and people didn’t spend enough € in the shops. Stupids europeans just wanted to do the rides.

For the unfriendly staff, yep, I think we french can’t smile with the minimum wage. It’s a genetic disease.

Provided they spend absolutely nothing, of course. Your figures are off, yo.

According to Wikipedia, Disneyland Paris had 15.3 million visitors in fiscal year 2008…

Even if *every one* of these visitors got a children’s ticket (children’s tickets are 34 euro in 2009 which is $47.54), that’s $727M dollars in revenue.

Yep, sounds like a complete failure to me.

Don’t we only read what has been published within the content of the Twitter articles of Tech Crunch,

Slander and derogatory articles don’t usually welcome any real Journalistic reporting, it usually finds the stiff wrist of a court case and apologies on behalf of the organization.

Assuming the outlet would have editorial in the first place, as demonstrated it seems that their is no real credibility with reading the articles at Tech Crunch.

As the reader is accused of reading “waaaaay” too far into the text published.

Americans and Europeans. We just love each others, don’t we? No other two continents could have a serious (sic!) conversation over the quality of Disney parks in their suburbs. Let’s keep it real…

Yes, insulting Europeans … like the good old European corporation Disney, run from the European city of Burbank, then run by the European entrepreneur (or whatever the French word for that is) Michael Eisner!

If TechCrunch wanted to annoy Europeans they’d suggest having one of these in each European capital, staffed by people imported from South Carolina, that double as a US airbase.

You’re reading waaaaay too far into this. Is it in any way a stretch to say Euro Disney was a failure when it launched? No, it’s not.

Seems like the ethos within Tech Crunch are Europeans at second rate level and incapable,

Even though the article is written by a (Belgian) European.

It was not to long ago that Mr Arrington was in trouble insulting the Europeans whilst attending in France.
