There’s the Imaginations building that could be relocated (aside from the part used for the Rat expansion). Almost the right footprint shape too!

How would Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway fit in Disneyland Paris?

True but I think they’d much prefer to put it on an empty plot than knocking down and rebuilding. You’d be pretty sandwiched and constrained by Ratatouille and Crush also.
Just thinking aloud given a desire to stick in the existing toon area.
I really don't think there is any thematic issue with it going in FL. Bigger issue is that the ride isn't good enough to be cloned again, and again.

This isn't about whether or not it should be cloned, but how it could theoretically fit into something as ill-fitting as Fantasyland.
The answer is easy - https://forums.wdwmagic.com/forums/imagineer.15/
I'm not adding that to Disneyland Paris unless it can go into a Toontown-like area.
I've seen overhead views of the area, and I don't think that a Toontown, even a small one, would physically fit, especially one with MMRR.
I don't think, as a rule, the Imagineering forum is used for complaining how things would or would not fit. If you look at half the stuff there, you might notice that it's all pure blue sky, no constraints of any kind.

Every one is just sharing their thoughts and opinions on a public forum. You can't expect everyone to agree with everything you say all the time. Frankly, whether intentional or not, some of your responses are coming across as rather dismissive and brusque. And in regards to your "Imagineering forum" comment... we aren't in that forum so...

Not sure, but he might face a language barrier.
I wouldn't worry about it too much if I were him. They thought Jerry Lewis was funny.
Another reason I bring it up here is because, as noted at the start, I thought I heard a rumor about the ride supposedly going into Fantasyland and I was just wondering how it could fit thematically.
Plus, I did do a whole thread in the Imagineering thread: https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/mickeyville-a-new-land-in-disneyland-paris.977482/. It didn't really go anywhere, particularly when @DisneyFan32 hijacked the thread to insist on including Roger Rabbit.

It's been explained how it could fit. Several times. Please stop talking in circles.

WAIIIIIT A SECOND that's one of the best Ideas I've ever heard! When I was a little kid I imagined them building some kinda Jungle Book Flume like on the river Baloo was floating in. Of course I love me a good Log FLUUUME
How can it fit in Fantasyland then? Because I don't believe it was ever truly answered. I wanted to know how it could fit the Fantasyland aesthetic.
As for the Imagineering page, I've also already posted about that there (https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/mickeyville-a-new-land-in-disneyland-paris.977482/), but it didn't really go anywhere because @DisneyFan32 hijacked it to make it about Roger Rabbit, even though I've specifically mentioned avoiding Roger Rabbit.
Actually, the inspiration for this thread was in an article I had discovered recently: https://thedisinsider.com/2022/08/11/why-disneyland-paris-deserves-mickey-minnies-runaway-railway/. It talks about how it would be difficult to do a Toontown-like area in Disneyland Paris without getting rid of the Alice maze, Storybook Land and Casey Jr., and I don't want to do that, which was why I had begun to wonder if it would be possible to do the Mickey ride without Toontown.

As others have said the studios is the obvious fit but In fantasyland there isn’t a reason why you couldn’t build the ride with an olde worlde theme like a concert hall or opera house like mickeys philhamagic
