Not sure if that is the reason or not as he is actually under contract to voice Rocket in both Thor 4 and Guardians 3. Not to mention that he already voiced Rocket for Mission Breakout.

Disney has a couple backup voices for Rocket... Trevor Devall and Nolan North have both done the character a lot, and Alex Weiner did it in a 2021 video game. Could be one of them, but that's just a wild guess.

I just watched a ride through and it looks like a good time. As stated on another thread, a wish of mine is that lessons taken from Cosmic Rewind could be used to visually improve our Space Mountain. The projections appear a lot cleaner than those in Hyperspace Mountain and I liked the look of the planets near the end of the ride. I'm also curious about how convincing the faux holograms appear in the queue and at the end. I was shocked when they opened Galaxy's Edge and there was only one hologram to be seen, and even that was a variation on a technique used at the Haunted Mansion.

you say that as if repeating "you're supposed to tell me when i'm ON!" 3 times isn't the pinnacle of comedy!

It’s just so bad. His delivery is terrible as well. He’s “acting,” as my drama teacher from years ago would say, meaning he’s not in character at all and is coming off as fake. He hasn’t transformed into who he’s supposed to be playing.
Makes me super appreciative of our Rocket pre-boarding (and animatronic) for M:BO.

I know there's a score from the movie, but there's something about playing already popular music on-ride that's a big turn off for me. I love September by earth wind fire but hearing it on a Disney parks ride just doesn't feel right.
Gives me serious high school musical in tomorrowland theater vibes.

Not sure it’s for the same reason but I really don’t like most of the songs they chose. Some could be a little less repetitive and a little more upbeat. And it’s highly baffling to me that they just built the entire ride and then were like “let’s see what songs fit this thing” instead of specifically designing the coaster to work in coordination with the music or changing the music to work with the coaster.

Fight me on this but Mission Breakout feels like the last spark of excellence by imagineering. The ride strikes the right chords because it was actually designed well. Everything they’ve done since is either mediocre or it’s good mostly because they threw a lot of money at it.
Rise of the Resistance is mostly impressive because it’s so elaborate and expensive. When you rely on that, then you get heartless attractions like Web Slingers.
Makes me worried for the Princess and the Frog Splash Mountain thing.

It's not just Splash Mountain. Disneyland has had a staggering amount of change the last 5 years, and it doesn't seem to be slowing down.
The aesthetic changes alone- Project Stardust, the new paint jobs around the park, lowering the curbs in the hub, the Frontierland, Adventureland, and Tomorrowland entrance changes, etc.
Toontown getting completely rebuilt.
Critter Country has a very different feel now, as does the ROA because of Galaxy's Edge.
Not to mention the decline in customer service and maintenance around the park.

Probably based on recent Disney standards.

Rise just isn’t it. It’s a fun ride, but Disney has done better.

And Smuggler's Run is inferior to Star Tours, hands down.

Aside from Pirates and Haunted Mansion (and some of the originals like the train, Main Street Vehicles, etc.) , the Tony Baxter era of imagineering is unmatched.

Don't really see a thread for this... so just going to share here.
