The second park in Disneyland Paris is called Walt Disney Studios Park. :mickey:

Maybe it's the "Hollywood" they need to drop? Not that "Studio" fits anymore either. Perhaps the changes will be significant enough that an entirely different name will make sense? Disney's Movie Adventure?

At least it means job security for the sign making department or else to reduce cost just name it "The Third Gate". No need for another name change. :blush:

I threw out Wonderful World of Disney. My son was kind enough to point out that just about everything at Hollywood Studios was something Disney has bought.

Ever since it stopped being an actual studio it has no real identity anyway.

"Walt Disney World Park #3", which is probably how a lot of people think of it anyway. Epcot is "Park 2." AK is "Park 4." Management/WDI seems to treat them like they're generic Disney parks more and more anyway, as well.

Another thought:
Magic Kingdom
Animal Kingdom
...Movie Kingdom?
and finally Neglected Kingdom (for poor Epcot)

Or just to stroke his ego:

Iger World....

......perhaps .....it could now be labeled, "The Park Formerly Known As ...."

....and then insert some kind of unpronounceable symbol ....much like Prince did.

We have a close friend in L.A. that is a producer....(does alot of commercials for Apple) He works with Disney in Burbank a lot also....he has heard the new name will "certainly have a SoCal theme) Which, makes sense. With the old school Hollywood look of the studios. I actually, hope they do a L.A. style name, I think it would work!!!

I still call it "MGM" so the name won't do much for me. I do like the park but the overall theme really needs an update. I enjoy the attractions but there is not as much to look at. I spend the least time there.
