I am just surprised they haven't rethemed RnR coaster yet. There isn't really a lot of specific Aerosmith theming to the ride besides the music and the pre-show.I hope they do replace Beauty and the Beast, it is ok, but really it is time for something new.
As for why RnR has Aerosmith, there is a YouTube video about how that came to be. In summary they we're not only not Disney's first choice, but I believe they were fourth or fifth and they only came to them because everyone else was either too expensive or refused, so Aerosmith was working on something else with Disney at the time and Disney approached them and they were more than enthusiastic to do it. Incidentally, the ride was already fully constructed before they even had a band signed on.
All of that being said, I like the idea that someone proposed of retheming it to the Muppets, it really is an underutilized IP and with the rumors of a new Muppet show coming to Disney+, it would be a great time to invest in more Muppets in the parks.

I mean they LITERALLY could plug in any band .. do a new "music studio" scene, change the soundtrack .. but the plot of the ride stays the same.
My son just turned 14 and loves CARS. Loves it. And he doesn't love anything else Disney anymore (teenage angst)Does Cars have a nostalgic fan base? Outside of toys being sold, it never struck me as being a beloved property.
Just stand at the exit for 20 minutes or so and count the number of people saying they liked it is they thought it was terrible.
I am not exaggerating at all here, it is really bad, flying tires was at least enjoyable to some people, but yes maintenance was an issue, how could it not be?
Cars would be such an easy transition too.

the change from Flying Tires to Luigi's was a great idea, and and anyone that says otherwise did not spend much time in line for Flying Tires. Capacity was terrible, and doubly so if there was a line for SAP. SAP took FOREVER - ride stops, everyone waits, tire is moved to SAP boarding area, SAP guest and the rest of their party boards (which was usually 2-3 tires, not just the one for SAP guest), SAP tire is moved back onto dance floor, regular line loads tires at a now reduced capacity, ride starts. This whole process could be, no kidding, 5-10 minutes, PER LOAD CYCLE. It was so bad we made a point of checking both the posted wait time and the length of the SAP line before we got in line. The mere fact that Luigis doesn't have this long process is a huge improvement. I honestly hope that Disney has now learned their lesson - they've tried it twice, Flying Tires or Flying Saucers just aren't a very good idea.Oh please. Plenty of people love Luigis. It's a fun ride to watch, the music is catchy, it's unique, and it IS fun to ride due to the unpredictable nature (it's different every time depending on which car you choose and its starting position on the platform). My kids love it (they are teenagers), my MIL loved it , my toddler niece and nephew loved it (gentle enough for little ones and elderly people), and I haven't once heard people come off it loudly complaining about how awful it is. It consistently has a line and people are disappointed when it's down.
You can hate it all you want, but it is definitely not a universally panned ride.

Disney cars family right here. Hollywood studios is missing out on Carsland. Hopefully there is an expansion off of the new McQueen ride.
Ugh, I hope they never do Luigi's, it is a truly terrible ride. It is a prime example of why Disney has historically not used technology for technology's sake, but rather to further the story. Luigi's is simply there to showcase the trackless ride tech, which while impressive is really boring to ride.
Where are you getting this info? I am also really surprised that we don't have any real detailed information about this and is just over a week from opening. You would think someone would have had a chance to view the show by now.Racing Academy is a 10 minute long show.

Is it continuous shows or set times?In the upcoming weeks times guide.
Its a 10 minute family show with a Lightning McQueen AA figure. There is a massive screen wrapped around him. Outside Cruz Ramirez and DJ will be available for photos and a dance party.
Should be pretty continuous with about 5 minutes between shows.Is it continuous shows or set times?
