EPCOT Remy's Ratatouille Adventure coming to Epcot

[MisterPenguin]

The concept art also has benches and trees. I don't see them in the finished product.

Shade and seating are for the weak.

I was ready to eye-roll when I saw "social media star" but was pleasantly surprised to learn she's not a typical influencer - rather a teacher from New York whose TikTok snowballed into something more.





Really cute story, with an output that arguably outshines the attraction itself. Good for her.

Update: there's going to be an actual performance on New Year's Day!

It’s the only go-to photogenic part of the ride that shows off the “shrunk down” theme for publicity.

Ya, you're right. I was just poking a bit of fun at how it really is the only thing shown off.

I'm still blown away by the creativity on display here and look forward to seeing the outcome in a few days.

Also, kudos to Disney for supporting this quirky idea and not immediately shutting it down. I guess in its own way, it's also providing free hype for the attraction.

My main takeaways from that "preview tour" video were:

(1) The good: There's an "alleyway" next to the entrance, which adds some nice depth, making it feel more like a row of real buildings than just facades.

(2) The bad: The flats are unfortunately visible from up close after all, and they don't seem to look very good. So much for my optimism about that aspect earlier in this thread.

Here's a still that displays the good and the bad:

It's time for everyone's favorite part of the ride:

If I didn't know anything about this ride, I'd assume this was the entire ride. Even though it's a copy-paste situation, the indoor queue would be nice to show off.

Isn't it the only physical set in the whole ride?

She cute. Probably the best part of the expansion.

There are a few, but it is by far the most fully realized. The Queue and Load Area are also dimensionally realized, and a brief corridor within the ride. There are also some "proscenium-like" thematic elements that frame projection screens.

Certainly it's the one that best provides a backdrop for people in space to gaze in awe.

The Creperie building is...generic to say the least. As lackluster as the concept art was, I feel the finished product looks even worse.

I'm disappointed, especially since they were testing differing colors and textures to make the facade look separate before ultimately painting it all white...

Is it possible we are jumping the gun thinking its complete? Its still under construction no?

Not something as drastic as a different color. That would be done before installing stuff on the walls like the awnings, sconces, shutters, etc.

Fair enough. Just another corner to cut from Disney, because they know 95% of the guests won't care or notice.

Can't make a statement like that and then not show the fountain! lol
But nice pictures nonetheless! Thanks for sharing. Blue building looks a lot better.

Lol. It’s hard bc of the glare from the window to get a good shot. You pretty much have to hold the lens right to the glass.
