I personally don’t have a problem with it, and like many have said it’s nice to be exposed to new cultures. I just wonder how regular guests will react.
Side Note: Patton Oswald voices Remy for the attraction? It kinda sounds like him could be a very good double though.
Anyways I am excited to ride this attraction for the first time.

I can't tell you how many times I've complained that the Na'vi Shaman doesn't sing in English. Ugh!I can see the Karens going to guest services asking for a refund because one ride is not 100% in english for their precious kid

Just saying, when you click on the tiktok link you attached, it shows your TikTok account and real name. In order to remove that, edit the hyperlink and remove everything after and including “&share_link_id”.
Or just replace it with this link which I already removed it:
TikTok - Make Your Day
m.tiktok.com
Also, Disney knows!! I’m pretty sure this is the first official video filmed within the ride so far.

Thanks for letting me know, lol. I only have tiktok for the watch, and I think this is the first time Disney has ever actually shared something significant on TikTok

That has to be the dumbest thing I ever saw. Is this what Tic Tok is? I am glad I don't even know.

For sure! I was very excited when I found out that Disney Parks created a TikTok account a couple weeks ago. They have done other neat stuff like showing the overnight transition of the parks from Halloween to Christmas. Hopefully they keep it up and give us an inside look at Tron or maybe Gaurdians!

Well partially. Currently there’s a trend/hype going around of a Ratatouille musical that was created by users on TikTok. Fans have been clamoring for Disney to “acknowledge” it and with this post, they finally did. It’s good PR and recognition that a ride is coming for those who didn’t know, and judging from the comments — plenty did not know such ride is coming to Epcot soon.
Disney does post some other cool stuff on their TikTok account as I mentioned in my previous reply above.
For example this, they did an exclusive on installing the marque:
Or this, which showcases the MK and HS decorations installations overnight:

I disagree with this being good PR. Although it may be 'hip' and 'cool' I would argue that the TikTok audience largely, is not the group who is in the position to drop thousands of dollars on a Disney Vacation. It is the same reason why you do not see BMW commercials during Teen Mom episodes. I would prefer a classier campaign.

The TikTok audience is majority kids and young teens. Although they can't drop thousands for a vacation, they can ask their parents that they want to vacay to WDW. It's basically a commercial in itself. I do agree with what you say though. I just see it going both ways.

In a way this is Little Mermaid redux. A clone of a ride that is "fine" but not loved with a bunch of fancy decorations stapled to the outside. It could be worse though. At least Epcot isn't getting an expensive clone of a ride that people HATED like USF did in 20018.
That said, I do wish they would have taken the opportunity to "plus" the ride experience or least reprofile the motion in the RVs to make it a bit more dynamic than the DLP version.

It's funny, that I am not old, as a kid of the 80s, I remember Round and Round, playing with Dangerous Toys, and a culture that was out of bounds from my parents. However, I do stand by my statement, that all this attention seeking social media stupidity, is not productive.

Can they not create fun Tik Tok content and also put out clever and classy ad campaigns?
One does not negate the other. Create it all. Appeal and pander to all demographics.

So... if you've been on the original ride at WDSP and have seen the original area... is this really "new and exciting and exclusive" stuff to watch? Asking for a friend. Or two. 
I thought it was hard to hear the English narration during the ride, but maybe that was just me being absorbed into everything going on.

I'm in my mid 30s so not old but not TikToks (intended?) audience but some of the stuff is funny. Theres a lot of creativity and strange and funny stuff. The Ratatouille musical stuff is very bizarre but some people are writing seriously and singing a lot. It's a strange meme but I dig it.
