Is this what is replacing the Great Movie Ride?

This actually looks really cool!

And no 3D glasses! 2.5D? I'll take it.

Kevin just said that there will more more hidden Mickey's on this attraction than any other attraction. So many in fact you will never find them all

All I want to know is how much is practical hidden mickeys vs video hidden mickeys.

I knew it was going to happen but didn't think it would be this soon. Looks like I just bought a one way ticket to Feeladelphia

Its amazing really, since 2011 the DHS (in my opinion) has gone from one of my favourite places in the entire world right down to "meh, its probably not even worth visiting during my trip next year".

I am beyond disappointed with Disney right now. Yes the new Mickey ride looks cool, and yes, Mickey really does need more presence in the parks, but the loss of the GMR is unacceptable.

Star Wars Land better be the greatest thing since sliced bread, otherwise I doubt I would even want to go back to DHS.

awesome!

I was hoping for a more classic feel with the original Mickey Mouse look from the "Mickey's Gala Premier" cartoon to keep with the Hollywood theme. I'm sad they are going in this direction and even sadder that the Great Movie Ride is closing so soon. Thankful my family and I got to ride in the front row just a couple weeks back.

So they basically have 4 attractions left in this park until summer 2018..

I'm not saying at all that I didn't like the Great Movie Ride, but I'm also definitely not disappointed that they are transforming it into this! This looks amazing! I can't wait!

Disney doesn't seem to know that Disney existed before 2005 and will have to continue existing after Iger retires.

Every sane person has voiced same verdict: delightful new addition, a disgrace it replaces the GMR instead of being a new ride.

I'm a huge fan of the silly little Mickey shorts Disney have been pumping out these last few years so super excited for this one!

 

[DisneyDrew]

I'm going to look back on this comment when it opens and hopefully it's amazing!

 

[Tavernacle12]

I was trying to be more optimistic about this one, but they way they presented it really let me down. Modern Mickey instead of classic Mickey, no Hollywood theme, and it seems to be predominantly screen based with few animatronics? Hopefully that's just due to what was ready to show and we'll see a good amount of animatronics on the ride itself...

Same.

And when this visual design goes out of style (as this type of gritty, pointe-exaggerated look typically does), they're going to be stuck with a really expensive attraction in a showcase location that is completely dated.

It's Walt Disney World. It's a ride about Mickey Mouse. How on earth did they manage to screw this up?
