First look at the Beauty and the Beast ride under construction in Tokyo Disneyland

Looks like 2020? The video title in japanese have 2020 in it
I'm an idiot. Should of read the title. So spring 2020? Oh dear lord 2020 is going to be stupid busy.
The animatronics looks fantastic. I wonder if they're getting to a level to replace CG in some movie situations again, or no?
Looks so good, the animatronics are mind blowing. Seeing Belle with the lantern was really cool as the movements were so fluid even in its current state.
Where are the people who said we "need" those goofy-ass projection faces now, huh? HUH? :P
Seriously though I'm envious of people who can go to Tokyo Disneyland/Disneysea with frequency. Those seem like the absolute best parks....

This looks great! Looks like they're using techniques learned from the Frozen Norway ride, but on a grander scale (and no projection faces!). God I wish this would come to New Fantasyland in WDW. Bulldoze Little Mermaid if you have to.
They're great, but Animal Kingdom is right up there with them. Especially now that it what might be the best land/ride in the world with Avatar.

Death to that crap, like a "cheap" way out. Certainly took me out of the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train with great bodies but terrible faces.
This on the other hand... I mean it's unbelievably good.
It looks like my dream of a ride taking you through the ballroom during the famous dance is finally coming true! I just hope the ballroom is to scale.
Tokyo Disney isn't actually run by Disney. A third party company licenses the Disney properties for those parks although Disney does have final say on creative ideas. It's why the budget for their rides and the theming there is so much better than what we are getting in the actual Disney run parks here in the US.
Holy shit, I cannot believe how amazing this looks. I was never a huge fan of the movie based rides, Peter Pan, Little Mermaid, Nemo at Epcot, etc, and I only just went on Frozen for the first time at Epcot but the projected on faces were creepy.
This on the other hand looks outstanding. Worth a trip to Tokyo Disney just to ride this. Can't wait.

That book reading Belle at the end looks shitty, they neither nailed her features nor the animation.
Looks amazing. I just came back from Disneyland Paris (first time I went since being about 4/5/6 years old) and had an incredible time. Going to Florida or Tokyo at some point would be a dream but I doubt we could afford it for a long time. Will still try to go to DLP again next year though, a lot of rides were closed at the time.

I'm always fascinated by well made animatronics. Imagine being a little kid experiencing this. My mind would be blown.
It would be the most inoffensive version of the Wild West you ever saw. You probably couldn't even use guns.
I'm impressed in how much Animattronics have stepped up their games in recent years. I recall the Shanghai Pirates of the Caribbean ride wowing me a lot, and that was a few years ago right? It's cool they are stepping up beyond it though.
One wonders if they would use any part of the 2017 remake of Beauty and the Beast at all or not, like music or something. I'm leaning more towards not.
