We got to look over the early days of Eurodisney recently in TOUR201….how porting cultural things over from one continent to another doesn’t always work so well and how businesses react to it.
Also from what I’ve heard this place still has nothing on the likes of Action Park, so it may slip by the rest of the government. The EPA…..eh, depends. There’s been enough instances of radioactive material vanishing in the past/getting sold for scrap/whatever to leave a chance of something going even worse.

Squirrel, heed what Sweetheart tells you …
Your home will be destroyed!
If EPA expels you,
You will see, you won’t be unemployed!
Because …
[CHORUS:]
EuroWhimsy, is where you’ll be heading!
Abandon hope there, for all is lost!
It’s a fate even worse than you’re dreading!
We have to stop this, at any cost!
Though zombie says it’s not bad,
They’ve really turned it ’round …
Still, Little Housemates got mad!
No eviction! Conviction you’ve found!
Because … [repeat CHORUS]

We have nothing to offer but blood, oil, gears, and sweat! We
shall fight in the parking lots, we shall fight at the admission
gates, we shall fight in the kiosks and gift shops, we shall fight in
the dangerously toxic and radioactive rides; we shall never
I’m getting flashbacks to the Kentucky Fried Movie.
Dr. Klahn: The CIA thinks they can infiltrate the Mountain of Dr. Klahn!
CIA Agent: You can’t scare me, you slant-eyed yellow bastard.
Dr. Klahn: Take him to… Detroit!
CIA Agent: No! No, not Detroit! No! No, please! Anything but that! No! No!
Huh. I just realized that no matter how much they want to, they can never go back to being Whimsy again since Whimsy the Mender-Fairy is dead. No matter what happens in this mission, the Little House is finished.
This is a world of mad science. I’m pretty sure that death is optional if you know the right people. Otherwise, how hard would it be to create a convincing replica of the Mender-Fairy?

If action park could have gotten their hands on a nuclear reactor, it *might* start to look like this.

Dr. Klahn is a man of enormous magnitude! He has our gratitude! Let’s all give Dr. Klahn a great big hand… oh damn.
It’s not even called EuroWhimsy any more; it’s Little House Paris.
My sister took her kids to Disneyland Paris last year. They thought it was awesome.
In the House of mouse – I totally enjoyed Tokyo Disney when I was there in ’88. Friends who have also been to euro said that Tokyo was better.
Whimsyland Paris.
Just saying.
Could be worse. Could be Brisby Land.
You have *NO* idea how disappointed I was when I found out that it wasn’t a The Secret of NIMH-themed park…
You have *NO* idea how disappointed I was when I found out that the National Institute of Mental Health isn’t run by super-intelligent rats.
Sorry, it was more of a Venture Brother’s ref than a Nimh ref…but I’m more than happy for the misunderstanding.
I would have thought EuroWhimsey would be now Little House Mornington Crescent.
Huh. I just realized that no matter how much they want to, they can never go back to being Whimsy again since Whimsy the Mender-Fairy is dead. No matter what happens in this mission, the Little House is finished.

the Mender-Fairy is/was digital, can you be be really dead if you (likely) have backup files?
I suppose so. You’ve got an identical copy of you that can replace you, but YOU will still be dead.
Well, present-you will be dead, but the past-you who existed at the time the copy was gets to live on as your present-self’s replacement.
