News Remy's Ratatouille Adventure coming to Epcot

[lazyboy97o]

Really curious about what we will see at the end of the month. Im planning on being there end of august through 1st week Sept. Hope some of the walk ways will be open- maybe a skyline soft opening at EPCOT.

The walkways towards this ride will not be open by then.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the highest level of Disney Sea's Soaring show building employs a flat backdrop in a similar way. And from the non-stop articles and post I see praising the building, I'd venture to say it was convincing. Let me try and find an image.

The portion I am talking about is circled. Obviously, the tower-esque portions that jut out significantly wouldn't be used, but I believe insiders confirmed that these wouldn't be flat paintings, but with details like shutters and bricks like these have.

Portofino and Mira Costa both use tromp l'oeil which is a deliberate style choice designed to give the impression of depth. Having said that, I don't like it.

From our morning stroll today.

I kinda wish this France backlot area was the entrance to Impressions instead of Remy's. It would be a nice corner of the World to chill instead of being in a 2 hour queue.

Here's another example of Disney using tromp l'oeil flats as architecture. Granted the Remy's will (hopefully) have a lot more color and detail. Photo credit to @bioreconstruct on Twitter.

It wasn’t a test.

Will WDW's version still be presented in 3-D?

EDIT: Answered above. Move along.

In all fairness you’re not meant to dwell on this view, or see it clearly or close up.

Now this is again weird by all accounts it looked like they were ahead in construction and even some insiders said expect early spring. Now it's summer?

It’s always smart to hold onto your contingency.

Yes, this.

I'm so gutted about this. And they didn't even try to guess a date for the railway ride, just said "next year".

Ooof, I'm not feeling Disney today.

Having done the Paris version of this, it's a hard meh. While kind of cute, anyone who is against screens at all will find problems with this clone. Paris suffers from a lack of compelling attractions. Orlando (overall) does not. I'm very interested to see how this plays where there are far better things very nearby let alone at the competition...

I'm more annoyed at how long this is taking than anything else.

why, WHY? Why does it take Disney so long to build one ride????????

Sorry.

I think this plus MMRR are being delayed due to the all-hands-on-deck approach to get RotR up and running by December 5.

 

[Mainahman]

We should be there the week of July 4th 2020 hoping to see it!

Looks like they are starting to work on the façade on the back of the pavilion. You can see here where they have started to fill in the gap between the buildings.

Ah, the traditional la facade du fromage!
