I realized something. The forced perspective Eiffel Tower will no longer have its illusion in the back of the France Pavilion. Going to be weird seeing the tower on top of a building from that angle.

To be honest, I really didn't think into it all that much for some reason. Forgive me.

Yeah from seeing that BatB AAs, I am hoping or "hoping" that the rat gets some really good AA, and at least some really good theming thru out the ride and especially in the que area. Imagine if they had a pre-show at RAT with the same AAs they are doing in TDL, wishful thinking, but would be nice. I can't wait to ride RAT, since and probably ever go over to Paris, although would be nice to do all the Disney parks.

I agree with most except for Frozen. The problem is 2009 D23 was when New Fantasy Fantasy Land was announced Frozen was not ready. When Staggs announced changes to New Fantasy Fantasy Land aka Mine train, and Storybook Circus land, Frozen still was not ready for the big screen.
The real problem with the 2009 D23 was Burbank was focusing on the wrong WDW theme park. DHS and Epcot were problem spots at the time.
While DHS did get Star Tours: The Adventures Continue, that park had major issues. I'm under the impression the Burbank and TDO thought LMA, Toy Story Midway, and American Idol Experience was enough from the 2005 to 2009 time frame. The problem is 2 of the 3 attractions were the wrong attractions. LMA made the backlot tour worse although it needed to be out to pasture. While LMA was a people eater as a show, Eisner closed down the working animation production for movies and live tape productions in general by 2005 at DHS. The entire Backlot Tour area needed to be redone. By 2009 Indy Stunt Show was getting old. The same thing is true with Voyage of the Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage.
America Idol Experience didn't reach Burbank's expectations at all. I remembered cast members were basically begging for guests to do the attraction as you for enter the park. TDO also made the mistake of refusing Monster Inc. Door coaster.
When the 2009 D23 was happening Epcot had huge problems that Disney was ignoring at the time. The Ellen version of Universe of Energy was getting old and dated. Circle of Life was getting old and Dated. Honey, I shrunk the Audience was dated and the IP in question Disney stopped using after the sitcom of the Honey, I shrunk Franchise got canceled. I know Disney did replace Honey, I shrunk the Audience with the return of Captain NEO, but it was the wrong move before doing the Pixar and Film Festival in that spot. The 3rd version of Imagination was not the answer. Innoventions already was a problem spot with it not able to catch up with the technology and Disney needed to get a rid of Innoventions at the time. Wonder of Life being gone didn't help the park either.
World Showcase in 2009 did need another attraction although it shouldn't be the top priority at the time considering how Future World was.
What I'm getting at MK should've been a focus for 2013 D23.

This is a clone of the existing ride. No figures.

But you saw it on top of a building from a different angle.
I am curious how it will look, but so long as you don't see where it connects, the illusion should still work- maybe not as well as from the front, but if you're moving, it will always reveal the cheat. From stills it should actually look more dramatic from the back.
It's been mentioned before, but in the concept art it is actually in a different location and with more of the lower half revealed.
We'll see.

No stranger than seeing it bend almost in half in Soarin' around CGI land ...

Exactly. You can't tell where it connects. But from the POV of the backside of the France Pavilion, it sure looks like the Eiffel Tower illusion will be ruined.
Not in a row.

Rat is more French I guess. Maybe they'll build BatB in the real Fantasyland

Battle Escape will utilize AAs.

I think it would be weird to see Belle on a Star destroyer.

Paint one side with a amazing color scheme blending it with the sky, just like the GoG building.
