News Disney Not Renewing Great Movie Ride Sponsorship Deal with TCM ; Attraction to Close

[Magic Feather]

Too add a bit more, it seems that B&TB is the pricier option, and would be fully reworked from a queue perspective, making it the less desirable option by WDI. Rat would be near seamless, and cheaper, however, anyone who has seen the ride knows it relies a bit too much (IMO) on "screenz". That is also, less desirable to WDI. At one point, a hardly similar rat ride was cooked (;-)) up as the preffered option, but alas, it seems this is just turning into another mediocre episode of "The Clone Wars". If this happens, it could be fasttracked for 2020-2021, but that is looking less likely.

Not my videos, @marni1971's.

To me, BatB would be a better fit for MK, and Ratatouille would be a better fit for France in Epcot. A cartoon vs. a realistic representation of France.

Any talk about Impressions becoming a queue or is it safe for now?

If anything, despite the added unnecessary detail, animatronics of the live-action horrorterrors might be easier to do then the animated originals. The "scaled up" look of the objects in the concept art means they could just throw the "I'm the Oscar that the original didn't' win" version of Lumiere on a random human frame and Mrs. Potts being just a face printed on the side of a teapot means she can be completely projection mapped.

I don't think they're scaled up, it's just the perspective playing tricks.

Sebastian wasn't scaled up in the LM ride so I don't see why they would need to here. They'll probably use a similar animatronic for Lumiere as can be seen already in Cardboard Pretend Time with Belle.

From this thread it seems like it's ok when Disney does it.

Lol, I tease, I tease

You're probably right. The vehicles do look like squished versions of Chip's siblings though.

This Batb going into Epcot really is hilarious. Because everyday guests ask if the BOG is where the batb ride is. And now Cast might be able to say can say no that's at Epcot

Better than telling them it's in Tokyo

And the way you talk about it hinging on the live action movie's success, I jumped right to thinking they'd pick the garbage aesthetics of that instead of the animated film's in order to cash in and I suppose distinguish the Epcot BATB experience from what's already existing at Magic Kingdom.

Like those reports of the Alice ride planned for Tokyo maintaining animated aesthetic for them and then a Burtonland clone of said ride would come to Shanghai down the road.

I am of the opinion that an attraction based on the film version of BATB would be a better fit for France if they are going to use that franchise in WS. Otherwise Ratatouille would work and may be the better option. In any case, something is better than nothing.

after reading the last few pages I forgot I was in a thread about The Great Movie ride.

CARDBOARD PRETEND TIME WITH BELLE

I will NEVER call this anything else now thank you for blessing me this day.

 

[Bocabear]

I know!! I love that!

Glad you guys like it, I've actually used it before

 

[wdwgreek]

Whoa, Whoa, whoa! I popped over to read some updates on the GMR, but now I'm reading about the back and forth of whether its the rat next to France or B&tB? Some insiders are saying the Rat others are saying B&tB? Am I Understanding this correctly and why isn't this on its own thread?

 

[TWSITT]

Now this has become the thread of people saying others are posting on the wrong thread

Not really.

 

[doctornick]

I created a new thread on a possible France ride. If the moderators want to move relevant discussion to it....
