Knowing how cool some of the foreign park rides are and the tech they use this is making me really exicited

 

[Planogirl]

Wow, the Great Movie Ride is becoming a kiddie ride?

 

[Lvsdisney]

I'm really looking for to the ride. Ive never been a huge fan of GMR.

"It's going to be a Mousesterpiece!" Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway will have more Hidden Mickey's than any other ride.

Replacing GMR with a Mickey ride is so far the best thing that has been announced from the last two D23's. I love it!

Clip from MSEP - now showing clips from various old shows. Hint at some sort of new show?

The name makes it sound more like a R&RC replacement then a GMR one re:Mickey

Also re:Star Wars what will become of the name if Samsung drops sponsorship or the Galaxy and Edge models become obsolete?

 

[MommaBerd]

The technology for Mickey looked very cool!

I'll give the GMR a nice salute in the couple of weeks, RIP old friend

No! I was set to ride it two last times this December (one with the bandit and one with the gangster). I'm so sad about this.

To clear about any confusion about where Mickey's new ride is going, it is stated here it is taking over the chinese theater:

The new Mickey ride sounds fantastic!!! So excited for it!!!!

We always skipped Great Movie Ride, so no loss for us.

 

[MommaBerd]

Do you think that's it for WDW?

Thanks for the confirmation. That's pretty fast. I don't like when they do this and don't give people a chance to ride one last time.

Still they haven't said that it's replacing GMR, which I find interesting. They're either ignoring the fact on purpose or its not going there. (Probably the former.)

I dont think everyone would be happy if GMR would close. Probably dont want to have a cloud of negativity over their new announcement.

(PS - Im not one of those people. GMR should be drastically updated, not replaced IMO)

It better not be!

 

[OSUPhantom]

Darn! I wish I had ridden the GMR one last time a few weeks ago...now I'll never get to say goodbye.

Love how they did COP on the stage show.
