There are some cool parts um during the ride vehicle part - though a lot of them are effects not really driven by the ride vehicle (the lightsaber in the elevator, the laser blasts leaving scorch marks .... Though being trackless allows for much of the two level part of the AT-AT scene
WDW also got several withing a short period of time and 2 of them at the same park. If MMRR, Rise, and Remy were out more across like 10 years vs 18 months or whatever it was might not feel as overdone - but agree, seemed the default / easy go to
They seemed to largely avoid the warehouse feel with Mystic Manor though, so can be done
Just have more set pieces that the cars have to navigate I think helps it a bit so the rooms don't seem like just boxes
Some scenes in Remy do ok (the food/fridge scene) it others do feel wharehouseish
The setting involves it being a co-op, as we head to Tiana's Food which was built at an old salt mine
But the plot/story/actual adventure doesn't focus on it
Really hard to tell - especially thinking how long they usually do previews for (6 weeks+) would mean for a July 1 opening they would be starting previews in May, which feels very soon.
If I had to guess I would say previews will be going on when you are there but the ride isn't fully open to...
I did hear a report they are checking when people go to get online and use the DAS that the person who actually got the DAS is with them
So stopping all the grandkids using it without grandma who is the one that qualifies for the DAS
I am sure the biggest part is rides going down but could part of it be the crowd attracted to Marathon weekend being less families with little kids more "Disney Adults" and so more drawn to DHS then MK, etc?
We are thinking of doing a trip late summer 2025 for Epic Universe - kids are definitely most excited for Nintendo land ... HP stuff to some extent. That is about it - they've never seen any of the monster movies or how to train your dragon (maybe the first one years ago)
I am mostly curious...
