It's nice to see that Walt Disney Studios is getting some expansion, and with some decent rides that will surely pull in crowds happily.

ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh coool! I was wondering if Toon Studios was a new park or a new land, and now its clear! So does this mean they're only counting Pixar characters as Toons? When I was a kid, Toons meant animated cartoon characters, more specifically Roger Rabbit and co.
The Crush ride looks amazing! At first glance I thought it was another Wild Mouse like coaster, but the curves and dips and dipping curves look totally awesome!
I hope that its popular enough to make its way to WDW since that seems to be the trend with popular attractions. Maybe they could put it in Epcot so that that park can have a roller coaster. Or maybe it could fit with the new Nemo show in Animal Kingdom?
Thanks for posting, Wonderlicious!

The Crush ride looks to me like it's the same track as a roller coaster that we have at a local amusement park near where I live. It's an outside coaster, so I assume the Crush one will be better, but it looks more exciting than it actually is. If you're on the side facing backward for the first drop, that's really the only thrill there is. Still fun, though, as long as you're not too concerned with finding thrills.

It's cool that they're making a Finding Nemo ride. The rides look pretty cool to me. I love The Tower of Terror and even though Finding Nemo looks directed towards kids maybe, I bet it would scare the hell out of me.

My Dad is in bad health, but can ride Big Thunder and Indiana Jones Adventure, but if we are ever at Disneyland Paris, he won't be getting on that Crush coaster. Actually it would be 100 times worse for him than the Tower of Terror and they will call it a family ride.
Heck, I rode a ride like that Crush coaster and it was far from mild, even for me who has been on Cedar Point's Top Thrill Dragster which goes 120 MPH.
