"Disney has proved once again that they’re still the best when it comes to audio-animatronics. Micro projectors inside the AAs map content to a mold of the character’s head. The facial expression of Anna and Else seem even more life like than ever before. "

The new Mickey ride that replaced The Great Movie Ride is filled with similar mapping technology, it looks downright trippy at times:

Visually impressive but not nearly good enough to justify the death of the Great Movie Ride.

They really needed a Mickey and Friends ride, though. Studio mascot, one of the most recognizable cartoon characters of all time, also one of the oldest, has been in the public mind since his debut, and it took more than 90 years of existing and over 60 of the parks before getting his own ride.

And hey, at least they were finally able to put a tornado in the tornado room.

I can't complain there either. At least Mickey finally has a ride after so long.

Reminded now of the Mickey Mouse Revue from the 70's....

Coulda torn down the Frozen ride or literally any of the other weaker rides to make that happen though. Great Movie Ride was one of the important veterans of the parks. Not to mention one of the few adult-oriented rides left.

They’ve put too much into Frozen to justify tearing it down for Mickey, not to mention that they still wanted to keep the northern Europe theme for the Norway pavilion.

That said, I’ve heard that Mickey’s Runaway Railway is coming to Toontown at Disneyland. I wonder what we’re losing to help it fit. If they even THINK about removing Roger Rabbit’s Car Toon Spin they’ve made an enemy for life.

I've wondered that myself. It'd be great if they didn't remove anything because right now there really isn't a lot to do in Toon Town if you're over the age of 6 aside from Car Toon Spin. But real estate in that part of the park is extremely limited and I don't know where else they could fit a large ride without going a far way underground. Or even a small one for that matter.

After what they did to Tower of Terror and California Screamin', nothing's off the table.

while I certainly understand being assblasted over Maelstrom's removal, I don't really see how a Mickey And Pals ride would fit better in the Norway pavilion
 
I'm just gonna leave this here. Sideways starts losing his mind when Lion King is talked about.

You know, there’s this Disney singalong thing at one of their parks to the animated version, only it has extra scenes golf that Lefou guy bring the secret hero of the store, like making Belle’s dress, secretly helping characters find the castle, ect.

I bet this movie is why they did that. They want to make the now-gay character the hero.

Didn't we technically have a half-prequel/interquel because of the flashbacks in Belle's Enchanted Christmas and Belle's Magical World?

If they want to adapt something into live-action, Enchanted Christmas I think has potential, but Tim Curry's fucking old, and a live-action pipe organ villain sounds terrifying for all the wrong reasons and the old CGI will look better as a result.

I think it’s about making Gaston’s sidekick into a hero or something. The one they made guy in the remake.

LeFou is a fan-favorite, sure, but he clearly cannot carry a movie/series/whatever by himself and they're delusional if they think a gay LeFou having gay adventures in gay Paree is going to work. There's a reason he's stuck to Gaston by the hip, that's how they bounce off each other. Gaston I don't think would've been quite the same without LeFou.
