It show building is very large. I would like to know which portion is actually for potential backstage use, office use , and the actual attraction use.

MMRR is to me a E ticket scale. It great Mickeys Toontown got 2 E ticket quality attraction like New Orleans Square.

Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is cute fun. It’s physically massive but so is pretty much everything from Disney these days. It never uses that size for any sort of awe inspiring sense of scale. It feels very much like a ride in a warehouse where you are watching something happen, not being immersed within a world. What really hurts it at Disney’s Hollywood Studios is its place of prominence. ToonTown is a much better location for the ride.

Are there any physical sets or is everything screens?

This really suits Toontown more than DHS and DCA. I’m glad it was chosen for Disneyland over DCA.

It’s physical sets with projection mapping. There’s only one scene that is really a true screen. The physical sets are also not static, they move and transform to become different imagery.
This helps me manage my expectations. Thank you.

The ride sounds more interesting. I’m still more curious about the queue, but I now have a better understanding of what’s going on with the ride.

Have you never watched ride videos because you don't want to be spoiled, or because you just never got around to it?

The transformation effects in the scenes are really stunning. I definitely recommend going in cold and without watching any ride throughs!

I don’t want to be spoiled. Since it’s coming here, I’d rather go in with fresh eyes so it can be a surprise. I have no problem watching ride-throughs of rides in the other parks around the world if said rides aren’t coming here

Yep, I have no plans to ever watch a ride-through prior to the ride opening. Why spoil it for myself?!

I'm mostly the same way. I didn't watch any videos of RotR or MF:SR before GE opened. Like @mickEblu I didn't want to wait since I probably won't be going back to WDW for a long time (if ever) and I was curious.

I didn’t watch any ROTR videos either since I knew I was going to ride right away but with that said it was hard to avoid the images of the AT AT room or the hangar.
