Recently Kaitlyn Robrock has took over as the new voice of Minnie Mouse which can be heard in newer episodes of "Mickey's Mixed Up Adventures".

Maybe that is why it’s a new series. Since it’s not Russi?
or maybe and more likely they just want to brand it as a D+ original.

According to information, it's a brand new series with the same team behind the Paul Rudish shorts.

Everyone’s favorite website has a new video up. In it, during the waiting room before the preshow they have an announcement basically recapping the preshow.
...I’m starting to get worried they aren’t going to
use this for a very long time. I just want that preshow back.

While certainly not as important as the Rise preshow, I do think MMRR is a lesser attraction without its preshow.

No preshow is bad show. Either figure out how to run it with distancing or close the ride.

Same could be said about Haunted Mansion in my opinion
Let's consider parades, fireworks, and streetmosphere to be "pre-show" for the park as a whole... which means, close it down!!!

Remember when everyone was complaining about the preshow because Minnie slapstick kicked Pluto into the trunk? Ah, good times!

Those must have been the same dweebs who want Splash Mountain gone. The same dweebs who were running to get a Splash Mountain FP in January before it was racist. Dweebs.

The GMR would have run flawlessly in the COVID era. The bank robbers could wear bandana face masks that fit right into the story.

You seem to be forgetting the constant on and off of the tour guides. Plus the actors switching.

Yep plus spieling through a mask and a shield would have been problematic.
You there, get outta the car, missy.... Wait, where ya going, toots? You forgot to sanitize your station on the way out!

You know what is funny. As I was typing this I imagined this exact situation as well as when the cast goes to get the gem in the Indy scene.

It's probably already been mentioned, but the queue outside for this Attraction can be brutal on a bright warm day.
Be prepared.
Experienced this today.
Twice.
Queue was huge ( 80 minute time posting, actual wait 50 minutes ) with periods of concrete baking in the sun...but there are breeze blowing fans and nice shaded areas under the trees and umbrellas.
Just a forewarning.
My thoughts on the Attraction?
I went in completely 'spoiler free', except for the pre-show which I watched on YouTube prior to arrival since i had been told it is not currently operating.
Too bad, as it's a fun way to come into the start of the Attraction.
'Spoiler free' opinions -
It's .....okay.
Didn't feel it was worth the hour long wait and the hype...but your milage may vary.
I'm a old school WED-head, so my thoughts in it may not mesh with the majority.
But I gotta say, my first experience after riding this left me cold.
It was loud, it was brash, it was slightly unsettling........and kinda meh for me.
The 'show' itself wasn't what was being presented, it was basically just an excuse to show off the hip 'new' trackless ride vehicle system.
So the real star of the 'show' was the ride vehicles....and their interaction with the screens.
Whoopie....
Big rooms filled with 'screens'...and synchronized ride vehicles.
Meh.
Wasn't a fan the first time around.
Disapointed somewhat.
Decided to give it another try later in the day.
This time the wait was about 30 or so minutes, so gave it another go before passing my final thoughts on the experience.
It's wacky fun....but it's still kinda 'meh' for me.
Just not overly crazy about it, but I did enjoy it slightly more the second time around.
So maybe this one will grow on me.
Goofy is the star here, for sure.
For now, it is upsetting that this much hyped Attractions replaced 'The Great Movie Ride'.
They should have built this 'Runaway Railway' in a different space and left 'TGMR' in the Chinese Theater.
But I digress....that's has probably already been stated by others.

This is pretty much my take from viewing the ride throughs.
It’s official: they need to retire the trackless ride system. Hunny Hunt was an outlier.
