Ooooh so that's a modification... not a replacement? Sounds quite a lot of money to be honest. That's half a month's firework budget on a lift. Hmm. Exciting though. I love these things. Just imagine the pyro :P

Not sure if these have already been posted, but they're nice little touches on TF1 at the moment. Too bad the commercial has animated characters and these are all.. well.. you know...

Yep, that's about the level DLP is aiming for...

I like that France calls a break bumper a "parasitage", like a parasite on the programmes.

Well at least they're all different, it varies it up a bit and makes each one a bit more unique from the next (although how unique can the same old stock images get? :roll: ). I wonder how many different designs there are in total?

Oh this can't be happening! Just when the NGF was showing signs of being a real departure and introducing some quality to the place... this happens. These posters add nothing. The 'welcome' text is almost the same as the MMP ones too. And what's with the pastel colour scheme? Not very bold or magical. Very simplistic and bland.

Same old, same old. I hope sometime this decade they break away from this sky blue colour scheme.

They'd be much better without the naff text just as plain character banners. There were some pictures somewhere of the new souvenir cups where the characters have much bolder (yellow, lime green, pink) backgrounds. That wouldn't have been terrible just in Front Lot and Fantasia Gardens.

But oh well, at least we got more than two generic designs this year. Small steps. :wink:

I would be fine with the banners outside the parks, but why did they put them into WDS?

Hopefully we will not see them in DLP.

It is odd, that. They seem to treat Front Lot like the Fantasia Gardens of WDS...

Should be renamed Billboard Studio.

I don't see why posters advertising NGF are needed when guests are already at the resort.

And if they have to do it they could at least make them look good.

I have never understood this either. The battle's already been won, they're in the parks! I am really hoping that they don't add anything to the front of Main Street Station, as something can kind of be seen from the video... :(

I can only assume they think it's some kind of atmospheric decoration. It helps (in theory) to give you the feeling of being there for a special event. Perhaps they'll promote DLP for being DLP one day

Since the decorations have started and the nasty golden Mickey has come down does this mean we might get an early preview before the end of March?
