Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway - Disneyland

Technically, this is more about the ride in Florida, but from watching a brief video about a review of the ride, they mentioned that were not allowed to actually film the ride:


Does this mean that no YouTube videos of the ride will happen now?

The ride isn’t open yet and it’s cast previews, that’s why they aren’t allowed to film

You won’t get YouTube videos of the ride through until next week when it opens.

Yep. Never forget Tony Baxter's edict: "Nobody listens to the dialogue."

I'd never heard that Tony Baxter quote before, but it makes so much sense!

I think the worst offenders of this are the pre-shows of recent years. They prattle on about instructions and character development and all sorts of weird stuff, and to me it just sounds like "blah blah blah".

On my first ride on Rise Before Dawn a few weeks ago the pre-show room with the hologram and BB8 was impressive visually, but then the hologram started talking in that fake British accent and all I heard from her was "recruits blah blah blah, recruits, blah blah, the resistance needs you recruits, blah blah blah, recruits". I'm still not sure what the point was, but I remember that she thought I was a recruit.

The most effective pre-show recently is Guardians Mission Breakout. There is still some blah-blah-blah parts of that when you are in the room with the animatronic racoon, but it keeps your attention effectively. Although there's still a mushy series of blah-blah raise your hands for the collector blah-blah-blah.

Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion and Thunder Mountain and Space Mountain and Splash Mountain and Small World and Matterhorn and endless others never expected that of us. Star Tours circa 1987 had an elaborate pre-show, but all we needed to know was that we were passengers boarding a sightseeing trip in space.

Let's hope the Runaway Railway ride doesn't expect us to pay attention to endless prattling and plot development in a pre-show! It should just be "we're going on a train ride with Goofy and then wacky things happen".

Another "most unique."

Well, "most unique" is not the most unique description any more.

Wow, I didn't realize being born and raised in Westminster meant Daisy had a fake British accent. Last I checked Westminster was in the heart of London.

Oh, that's her real accent? I had no idea. I just thought she was doing that Star Wars thing where all the officers and "interesting people" have British accents for some reason.

I literally had no idea that actress was British. I learned something today!

Well you do know the reason why SW movies have a lot of people with British accents is because they filmed mostly in the UK. Namely at Elstree and Pinewood Studios (Pinewood is also where the Bond series was filmed).

Oh. I just thought it was because the Brits had colonized that galaxy far, far away.

So from the video I put up, does this mean that YouTube videos of the ride after it opens are out of bounds? Once again, here is the video for your convenience:

No, it means that Disney is cracking down to prevent a POV from being uploaded until after the attraction opens. This has pretty much always been their policy for new rides.

My wife was raised in Westminster but she doesn't have a British accent. Oh course, it was Westminster, California. Maybe that is where Ridley is from too?

I want to hear someone at these cast member previews totally derail the ride as the worst thing ever. They are cast members. Of course they are going to love it and talk in as many cartoon voices as possible.

... or maybe its actually just a good attraction?

This is the Spirit trap:

• You can't trust 'the suits', they're just in it for the money.
• You can't trust the new generation of WDI, they just don't get it
• You can't trust CM opinions, they're either drinking the Kool-Aid or are fearful or reprisal if they say anything negative
• You can't trust mainstream news sources since they fear being cut off by Disney
• You can't trust bloggers since they don't want to lose access to the next cupcake party
• You can't trust guests, they don't know any better.
• You can't trust other forumites, they're 'dusters'
• There are polls or evidence of what the majority think... the poll is just a ruse

There is no one who expresses an opinion you'd rather not hear who doesn't have an ad hominem attack ready to be launched at. You have an opinion different than mine? Then let me explain what's wrong with you or your situation that you can't have the correct opinion... mine.

Sadly yes. I've actually been posting less and less lately (save for the recent Bob-swap announcement) because frankly, I just have come to realize that no one is changing minds on here and it seems the general consensus is that it's just so much more fun and enjoyable to deride every single thing about Disney (not that there isn't stuff that I disagree with)... but man... life is so much more than just the petty stuff we argue about.

That makes total sense.

Nope, but good try....
