I’ve really fought for more info but I happened to make friends with management-aspirees who take their roles far too seriously. All I know is that it’s Good but they’re not overly enthusiastic about it.

well that’s disappointing. Conceptually it’s such a great idea and has the potential to be so unique. Maybe they haven’t seen the whole show put together and operating at full potential during testing. Either that or WDI screwed up the execution in someway.

You know what’s an awful experience?Waiting more than 3 hours in line. The boarding groups are fantastic.

*Lightly drops the opinion that MMRR should not make use of a Boarding Group system since the circumstances around it and RotR are so very deeply different*
I still think there will be.
Especially since that 3 hour wait can bloat to 5 hours with unscheduled downtime. Although, I don't know if they'd dump the line each time.

I honestly think it’ll be something good, especially based off the gimmicks of some scenes, but I’ll still be heading in with low expectations, as well as for the WEB attraction over at DCA.
My expectations were through the roof for Rise and I won’t let myself do that again

Kinda, imagine the old Fantasyland darkrides with all the cutouts. But instead of black lit cardboards its projection screens. And I assume some of them will move aswell as shown in the D23 demo where you saw the trees flipping.

I had very high expectations for Rise as well. The actual experience definitely did not exceed them but I would definitely put it in the same class as Shanghai Pirates which is saying a lot. I would be satisfied if the quality of MMRR equaled Rise or Shanghai Pirates but it doesn’t sound like that is the case.I honestly think it’ll be something good, especially based off the gimmicks of some scenes, but I’ll still be heading in with low expectations, as well as for the WEB attraction over at DCA.

Again, it could be that training crews haven’t yet seen show scenes working completely yet. If all elements aren’t working together as designed than that could make the experience seem lacking. I’m hoping that is the case because, from what I’ve seen, MMRR has potential for an impressive wow factor.

What exactly was the point of that latest promo video? What did we learn ?

We learned that trainers have to wear khaki pants, and even the president knows how to put on a fake persona! One CM mentioned she'd been watching "Mickey Shorts" all her life! lol! Mickey Shorts are typically considered the films which began in 1928:

There's also a TV series called "Mickey Mouse" which started in 2013, which this attraction is ACTUALLY based on:

Eh, I've been watching Mickey Shorts all my life too and I was born in 1975. Saw them in the theater before Davy Crocket, saw them on the old Disney Channel, saw them on the magical express busses and disney cruises, and still see them on Disney plus. Don't really think that's a big deal to nit pick about.We learned that trainers have to wear khaki pants, and even the president knows how to put on a fake persona!

There is so much wrong with this video. Goodbye forever to the Disney look we all were accustomed to for CM's. Noticed it on my trip last week, too. So much inconsistency in regards to facial hair, shirts tucked or untucked, and even CM's just standing around with their hands in their pockets, leaning on walls twirling their hair, etc. Unfortunately there's more...
Cool conspiracy theory, bro.
