I would give anything to ride this again! The music gives me so much Disney comfort! The best ride music other than haunted mansion ❤️ God I miss this ride so much! It breaks my heart!!!
This brings tears to my eyes. Splash mountain is my favorite attraction at Disney. It has everything you’d want from a Disney ride. A fun story, a bit of thrill, animatronics and an incredibly catchy sing
Jayden Crist over a ride? This is not just a ride.. this is THE ride! This is literally the most popular and recognizable ride in Disney World magic kingdom. Believe it or not, it tops Space Mountain. Can't believe people want this ride gone.. all because of "racism" Walt Disney once said "Don't bring the outside world into my world." Disney would want to keep Splash Mountain, not for this reason.. and people are really ignoring it! Trust me when I say this.. Magic Kingdom wouldn't be the same without this ride. It'll be the biggest mistake ever.
Yeah but I doubt there going to change it much just the songs and remove brer rabbit brer fox brer bear. I think the mountain outside the ride and the rest of the animatronics will be staying I think.
It's one thing to re-theme a ride that is not doing well. Splash mountain is a beloved attraction that draws it's fair share of guests. it's a real shame to see it go.
The sound effect at 12:35 triggers a deep memory of being 7 years old and clinging on for dear life on that terrifying drop in the dark. Now listening at 29 yrs old makes me tear up a little realizing how larger-than-life and impactful this ride was at such an impressionable age: and knowing that it’s now gone 😢
Got emotional when listening to this soundtrack because it made me remember … October 15th 1997, I was 8 years old and my parents took me and my older sister. It was the first time I rode it and we all rode it together. And there’s a picture of the 4 of us afterwards. I can’t find it though but I know it’s there. It just kind of hit me that I’m not sure if the 4 of us will ever ride a classic Disney ride together again but I’m hoping someday we will. (Last time we all went was 2014.) It was the absolute peak of my childhood in 1997, and I was happily unaware of any bad stuff happening. It was just me, sister, mom and dad all together at Disneyworld. A way happier time in the world back then.
I was born in SoCal, but raised in south Florida. I’ve been fortunate enough to experience both parks. DIsneyland as a park and resort will always be my favorite of the two for many reasons. I could go on and on about why, but I’m going to get right to the point here. WDW’s MK Splash Mountain is probably the only example of a duplicate ride of which I actually enjoy better on the east coast. It’s been said in many of the comments, but I agree for all of the same reasons. The double seated log flumes, more elaborate and rustic feel and indoor animatronics, the Blue-grass instrumental accompaniment, the fact that it doesn’t feel as rushed, plus an extra drop gives this Splash Mountain the cake! I think this is a great example of how WDI found a way to make the second version more elaborate and appealing. In my humble opinion, the same can’t be said for more of the duplicate rides such as Pirates, Small World, and Space Mountain - those are WAY better at DL.
Interestingly, the two "themes" of the rides (WDW and DL) also contribute to the underlying ideas of the parks. The New Orleans square location DL's attraction affords a score very similar to that of the film, contributing to the more "charming, cartoon" atmosphere of Disneyland. Splash Mountain at WDW, being in Frontierland, has what you might consider a more realistic score given the location and time period of the events taking place, thus adding to the more "realistic" approach of that park.
Michael Tyree In Tokyo DL Splash's location is also Critter Country but themed to Western wildlife of Texas/New Mexico like in WDW's Frontierland's time period and the music score is WDW's with banjos and harmonicas but with some reworded lyrics to Japanese.
@@CrazyManhog The ride dosen't fit in fronteir land. It's based of a plantation with fantasy characters. It fits more in critter country. The only reason they put this ride in fronteir land is because magic kingdom did not have a critter country.
As much as i love it, I’ve never rode this ride. I’ve only seen the original movie and rode it in VR. I’ve sadly never been to WDW or WDL... but I love the song, movie, and characters!
I can't say a fav ride in all of Disney but this ride is special for me because when I was younger I was looking around for more rides and I never noticed this so I rode it and boy, I loved it
He was also the first black man to be hired by Disney AND the first black man to receive an Oscar. How people think that's 'racist, is beyond me. It's the complete opposite of racist.
In addition, these were the stories of the slaves. To erase this would be to erase the voices of the laborers that worked so hard to preserve their culture through their stories and folktales.
@@foxiewithamoxie Absolutely. These stories are rooted in African American history and are a very important piece of their culture. To erase them would be so disrespectful to the people who suffered during those awful times.
I’ve never seen the movie, but seeing glimpses of what it includes with slavery and using black people for it in which they live in harmony with their masters is not meant to offend anyone. It’s for historical purposes. Besides, it looked like Disney was just trying to make the the point of slavery appropriate for children and not use anything too dark from real slavery. I bet the actors and actresses didn’t even complain or get offended by their roles, especially the guy who played Uncle Remus. It’s just people these days are always so quick to assume that a lot of things offend them when they’re not supposed to be taking it too literally and personally. The movie is about history and like what you guys said, culture and folktales and stories told by laborers
This legendary attraction was the best ride at magic kingdom, heck, maybe all of Disney world. This ride is not racist, it was historically accurate, time has changed. This ride was awesome and iconic, the characters were great, and the animated portions of the film, which are by no means racist are a part of this ride. This ride is heavily comprised with animals, no humans at all, there is no discrimination against Africans. Actually, I know one that isn’t offended by this ride and is bummed by its closure. Disney replaced this ride with a ride that references the salt mines. How hypocritical, Disney! And the worst part, this ride was attraction heavy yet imagineers are lazy and hardly put any effort to making the Tiana ride magical, only 17 animatronics compared to Splash Mountain’s 68. Tokyo Disneyland is actually being smart by refusing to delete this ride, they know how big of a mistake Disney is making. When your ceo calls your ride you know you’ve got a problem. I love these songs, I get nostalgic and makes me so sad to think of that fact that I can never experience it again, well at least, not in the U.S. You can tell the people that worked on this ride put a lot of thought and love into it and wanted the fans to enjoy it. Tiana lacks any soul, heart, or hype that the original ride had, it has no story at all. It’s despicable that Disney has actually hired influencers to trash this ride and straight up attack their fans. I wouldn’t be surprised with Tiana turns out to be a massive failure. This ride will be missed by all! Magic Kingdom just feels so empty without it. Bring back Splash, Disney… before you regret it… Sincerely, every Disney Fan
So glad I got to ride this a lot on my 46 times to WDW. Lots of great memories. My first thrill ride as a kid and it has always remained my favorite to this day. I'm still holding out hope that they change their mind and keep it! I just cant see WDW or DL with no Splash Mountain
You know, I realized something a while ago while listening to this doing my homework. Listen to the lyrics in the beginning. They're warning you about the drop that's coming at the end of the ride. "what goes up is sure to come down", "time to be turning around", it's actually kinda sinister XD.
I cried when I heard the news.. this is getting astronomically ridiculous. The ride itself was not only NOT racist, but a Walt Disney classic and a STAPLE of the parks. Pissed is an understatement.
@@julianarose101 I honestly believe that the movie itself was racist/had racist undertones, but the ride did not. Yes, the ride has problematic source material, but besides the melodies and the b'rer animals they both shared nothing in common. I also felt like the Splash Mountain had become an IP/universe of its own, apparently not...
It makes no sense for them to replace this ride in Frontierland. In New Orleans at DisneyLand? Sure! But Frontierland...? What does The Princess and the Frog have to do with the Frontier?
If they have to replace it, do Pocahontas instead! It fits Frontierland much better than Princess and the Frog. Either do that, or dig up the old Western River Expedition concept out the vault. But of course, I would just prefer they don't change it at all.
@@SuperbitGamer-db6iw I did but there’s nothing to do. Disney doesn’t listen to their fans. They mostly focus on what’s important for them. If it does close down we need to be thankful this ride lasted long for 30 years. That’s enough for a classic ride to last. And they barely cared about maintaining the attractions and some of the animotronics started to fall apart mostly the older ones used on other extinct attractions. Also this ride received small negative feedback due to the theming of Disney’s controversial song of the south film. I hate to see this attraction go as well but you know things don’t last forever. They might have to go at some point but it is what it is. But we’ll have to wait and see.
These crybaby liberals are the most dense, braindead idiots on the planet. If they actually did some research, they'd know that the ride is supposed to celebrate African American folklore, not celebrate slavery like everyone assumes. 🤦♀️
@@MangoTurtlenova How does it not? I guess Pirates of The Caribbean promotes looting and pillaging because it's set it pirate times, huh? No, it doesn't. Just because Splash Mountain takes place during the 1800s doesn't mean it promotes slavery.
@@TheFoxFromSplashMountain Magic kingdom is coming more princess by the second. Magic kingdom used to be a park of anything that applies with fantasy and dreams now the park is just princess garbage in your face. LOL! I think we should keep the balance at magic kingdom so the princess can stay in fantasyland and the rest of the lands can have no princess rides at all.
The fact that the many passionate fans of this ride are being completely disregarded for the Twitter mob is disgusting. They can preach “change is good” all they want, but imo change should come for the stuff that doesn’t work and is unpopular. This is arguably the most popular ride in the most popular theme park in the world. It may be an uphill battle, but I’m going to make sure my voice is heard as best as I can. This is not right. Tiana should have her own ride.
But even before the protest, Disney was thinking of how to change the ride anyway. The movie the ride was based on sparked so much controversial for its racial depictions of African American slavery
I genuinely hope they back out on their decision and don't kneel to the mob, but knowing the way things are going, I'm never going to be able to ride Splash Mountain again, and this is the only place I'll be able to hear the soundtrack. This was my favorite ride at Disney for the characters, the artstyle, the aesthetic, and the soundtrack. I remember riding it multiple times in succession during my two trips to Disney. Nothing about this ride is racist. Even the claims of racism in the film, Song of the South, are dubious at best. But the mob is just going to keep (seemingly successfully) attempting to erase our history and culture. I don't think I'll be riding the Princess and the Frog ride. If they really needed one, they should've built it in New Orleans Square at Disneyland instead of destroying a classic. Hell, they shouldn't have replaced the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror with Guardians of the Galaxy, either. I don't even think I want to go back to the parks at all if this is the path they're taking.
@@user-ze1ni6mc8c Hopefully they'll keep the one in Japan. I was looking forward to at least once go on this ride. I grew up with reading comics with these characters and I love these characters. They're part of my childhood. I live in Europe and the park in France doesn't have a Splash Mountain unfortunately.
Eh, to be frank? Splash Mountain never clicked me like how the other Disney rides or attractions I went to did, so like do I REALLY have to show grief over a ride closing down?? like I mean it's just a crappy ride dude, why does everybody keep pretending that some ride full of robots is a real thing? :/
To shed a little hope..as long as Disneyland in closed in California they can’t afford the retheme...they have already canceled many projects due to lack of profit
For anyone interested, I've recently uploaded a new video entitled: "Why Splash Mountain Is Not Getting a Retheme". ruclips.net/video/TireqqmiPpg/видео.html
@@jaydenchrist6152 oh yeah like what problems this is a problem to me they're changing it because they think it's racist and it is not Song of the South is my favorite Disney movie I don't think it's racist and they're always changing my favorite rides first it was California Screamin' which change to the incredicoaster and I was mad that time too and now they're changing another one of my favorite rides this is not cool

They better not touch rock n rollercoaster or Tower of Terror test track sorin space mountain haunted Mansion thunder mountain or everst or flight of passage or dinosaur or peoplemover or I will end them. Sorry for the long list
@@jaydenchrist6152 you don't have to say sorry. Do you go to Disneyland California or Florida Walt Disney World? I live in California so I go to Disneyland.
I am happy that I got to experience this version of Splash Mountain in Disney World, today before they remodel it, Uncle Remus Stories and the Brier Patch were a part of my childhood.
@@jaydenchrist6152 Pretty much everyone was a bit racist back then. That's just the way society was. And yes, I would agree that the DL version of the ride is due for an overhaul. The other versions however still hold up and still look great, both inside and out. I'd be happy if they just rethemed the DL version and left the others.
I can't believe they're suddenly changing this ride to "The Princess and the Frog" after all these years. Kind of like if "it's a small world" became Encanto, the way I see it.
10:36 That's sadly something you can't hear anymore. Disney appears to have given up on the Million Dollar Bunny around mid-2021, and they also don't play that audio clip anymore.
I never got a chance to ride it when I went to Disneyland since I was too focused on the Space Mountain and other space rides but when I watched the POV ride about it? I guess it looks fun lol.
Well, DSNY Newscast made a video about how it could fit in MK. How about make a New Orleans Street mini land between Adventureland and Frontierland and just build a new path for Big Thunder Mountain. And Pecos Bill’s Tall Tale Inn Cafe can be rethemed into Tiana’s place. Now question, what does it mean for the Country Bear Jamboree? Well, keep the exit but build a wall, covering the restaurant. And build the New Orleans Street sign right next to Tiana’s Place. BAM! Good solution!
The difference between the splash mountain music at wdw and dl is that wdw’s music has more of a southern music theme because they wanted to make the music fit the ride style and dl’s splash mountain’s music was made more to fit the area of dl it’s located in. Personally the dl version of the song is better. I suggest the person reading this comment goes and listens to the dl version of the song
Jess Harnell did a pretty good job as the voice of Brer Rabbit. Not too simple to just make us just hear Wakko Warner, yet not too exaggerated and over the top to point of being considered racist (unlike Song of the South). I’m gonna miss this ride, although I am curious as to how the Princess and the Frog layout is gonna be like
Same here since usually my personal favorite Disney movies from that era the Princess and the Frog is from are Winnie the Pooh 11' and Big Hero 6 imo but I am fond of that movie too since what I like about it is that they got one of my favorite Gargoyles voice actors Keith David (*who's the voice of Goliath.) to voice the villain of that movie named Dr. Facilier.
Google wanted me to change my username so I changed it to a description of why I changed my username But aren't you crying over splash Mountain going way

Jayden Crist oh shit I just realize that
It’s interesting the Florida version had a more southern feeling than the one in California since it’s in the south.
There is a petition to save Splash Mountain, sign it, and then spread the word. You never know if it'll work or not
@@SuperbitGamer-db6iw I did but there’s nothing to do. Disney doesn’t listen to their fans. They mostly focus on what’s important for them. If it does close down we need to be thankful this ride lasted long for 30 years. That’s enough for a classic ride to last. And they barely cared about maintaining the attractions and some of the animotronics started to fall apart mostly the older ones used on other extinct attractions. Also this ride received small negative feedback due to the theming of Disney’s controversial song of the south film. I hate to see this attraction go as well but you know things don’t last forever. They might have to go at some point but it is what it is. But we’ll have to wait and see.
@@spacemansports4129 well lets hope a miracle will happen
I think splash boat sank because it hates Disney for rethemeing and dosent want it rethemed!
Lol
@@jaydenchrist6152 😂🤣🤣🤣
Even the log knows these crybabys must be stopped.
@@jaydenchrist6152 Yes lol.
Let’s pause for a moment of silence and pray that the hassle over this ride being racist is just a dream.
These crybaby liberals are the most dense, braindead idiots on the planet. If they actually did some research, they'd know that the ride is supposed to celebrate African American folklore, not celebrate slavery like everyone assumes. 🤦♀️
@@TheFoxFromSplashMountain which would be great if that's what it does, but it doesn't do that
@@MangoTurtlenova How does it not? I guess Pirates of The Caribbean promotes looting and pillaging because it's set it pirate times, huh? No, it doesn't. Just because Splash Mountain takes place during the 1800s doesn't mean it promotes slavery.
@@rosscarpenter5604 😂😂😂
@@TheFoxFromSplashMountain Magic kingdom is coming more princess by the second. Magic kingdom used to be a park of anything that applies with fantasy and dreams now the park is just princess garbage in your face. LOL! I think we should keep the balance at magic kingdom so the princess can stay in fantasyland and the rest of the lands can have no princess rides at all.
Splash Mountain is THE MOST WONDERFULL ATTRACTION!!
Yesterday was the final ride of Splash Mountain.
Yes please retheme this ride to a love story instead of a ride about finding happiness wherever you are. Rip splash mountain.
The fact that the many passionate fans of this ride are being completely disregarded for the Twitter mob is disgusting. They can preach “change is good” all they want, but imo change should come for the stuff that doesn’t work and is unpopular. This is arguably the most popular ride in the most popular theme park in the world. It may be an uphill battle, but I’m going to make sure my voice is heard as best as I can. This is not right. Tiana should have her own ride.
I checked a map of the area and there is totally space for a new ride
But even before the protest, Disney was thinking of how to change the ride anyway. The movie the ride was based on sparked so much controversial for its racial depictions of African American slavery
Who cares if it’s based on a movie, the ride isn’t racist and it should stay. You guys can sign a petition on change.org to save splash Mountain
That’s why Splash Mountain memorabilia has been currently selling out!
Yeah I know, when I found out about that I quickly bought the two Funko Pops before their prices went crazy
I like this soundtrack on 19:47
As someone who loves The Princess & the Frog, screw Tiana's Bayou Adventure!
SPLASH MOUNTAIN FOREVER!
I genuinely hope they back out on their decision and don't kneel to the mob, but knowing the way things are going, I'm never going to be able to ride Splash Mountain again, and this is the only place I'll be able to hear the soundtrack. This was my favorite ride at Disney for the characters, the artstyle, the aesthetic, and the soundtrack. I remember riding it multiple times in succession during my two trips to Disney. Nothing about this ride is racist. Even the claims of racism in the film, Song of the South, are dubious at best.
But the mob is just going to keep (seemingly successfully) attempting to erase our history and culture. I don't think I'll be riding the Princess and the Frog ride. If they really needed one, they should've built it in New Orleans Square at Disneyland instead of destroying a classic. Hell, they shouldn't have replaced the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror with Guardians of the Galaxy, either. I don't even think I want to go back to the parks at all if this is the path they're taking.
You are right. I totally agree to your opinion.
from a Japanese huge fan of Disney movies and their theme parks.
Me too
@@user-ze1ni6mc8c Hopefully they'll keep the one in Japan. I was looking forward to at least once go on this ride. I grew up with reading comics with these characters and I love these characters. They're part of my childhood.
I live in Europe and the park in France doesn't have a Splash Mountain unfortunately.
Tower of Terror to Guardians of the Galaxy was a good decision, but re-theming Splash Mountain..... hell no!
You guys do understand that Disney was making those plans to begin with, right?
2:32 The music that calms and confuses children before the drops
whatever you do, don't ever delete this video!
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 how I feel about the ride being gone forever
Well there still is gonna be Tokyo Disneyland splash mountain
Same here this is a horrible nightmare 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Not forever. Just until you’re willing to take a trip to fūcking Japan.
Eh, to be frank? Splash Mountain never clicked me like how the other Disney rides or attractions I went to did, so like do I REALLY have to show grief over a ride closing down?? like I mean it's just a crappy ride dude, why does everybody keep pretending that some ride full of robots is a real thing? :/
So many memories, I hope I can ride it one last time when I go to wdw before it closes
To shed a little hope..as long as Disneyland in closed in California they can’t afford the retheme...they have already canceled many projects due to lack of profit
For anyone interested, I've recently uploaded a new video entitled: "Why Splash Mountain Is Not Getting a Retheme". ruclips.net/video/TireqqmiPpg/видео.html
I watched it.
i dont understand why seven dwarfs mine train is so popular... this is way better
It's just because it's new
Seven drawfs mine train is crap what a nice way to screw up a roller coaster. Slinky dog dash is on the same level and it's one of my Favorite rides.
It sucks that Snow White had to die for it.
Because the 7 Dwarfs are cool dude, get over yourself.
Let’s all hope this ride will not be changed
it will
Oh it will
@@1ROCKET- disney dosen't care about a petition
Yeah I know
@@1ROCKET- oh ok
I really am going to miss this ride when they re-theme it to Princess And The Frog
No it isn't if they change it
@@jaydenchrist6152 I still don't want it to change I love the music it has already and I just don't want them to change my favorite ride
@@jaydenchrist6152 oh yeah like what problems this is a problem to me they're changing it because they think it's racist and it is not Song of the South is my favorite Disney movie I don't think it's racist and they're always changing my favorite rides first it was California Screamin' which change to the incredicoaster and I was mad that time too and now they're changing another one of my favorite rides this is not cool
@@disneylandfun4184 Oh yeah Dinsey is pretty much using there property's. They better not touch rock n rollercoaster or Tower of Terror test track sorin space mountain haunted Mansion thunder mountain or everst or flight of passage or dinosaur or peoplemover or I will end them.
Sorry for the long list
@@jaydenchrist6152 you don't have to say sorry. Do you go to Disneyland California or Florida Walt Disney World? I live in California so I go to Disneyland.

@@jaydenchrist6152 I just been there. Its still open thankfully
I’m sad because Disney is getting rid of splash mountain 😢
I am happy that I got to experience this version of Splash Mountain in Disney World, today before they remodel it, Uncle Remus Stories and the Brier Patch were a part of my childhood.
I love this ride so much!
Edit:i miss this ride so much 😔🥺🥺🥺😔😔
Why did it have to happen Disney shame on you Disney I miss you Splash mountain please come back soon we're all waiting for you
R.I.P Splash mountain
Shame on you Bob Iger
Long live splash mountain!
RIP 😔 I hate Disney for killing this.
Same
Same here
Blame the crybaby SJWs holding them at gunpoint. They're the ones who started this. Walt would have never let this happen.
@@jaydenchrist6152 Pretty much everyone was a bit racist back then. That's just the way society was. And yes, I would agree that the DL version of the ride is due for an overhaul. The other versions however still hold up and still look great, both inside and out. I'd be happy if they just rethemed the DL version and left the others.
@@TheFoxFromSplashMountain yeah teh Disneyland VERSION needed it more it was rushed and the animatronics were in poor shape
R.I.P. splash mountain :(
I can't believe they're suddenly changing this ride to "The Princess and the Frog" after all these years. Kind of like if "it's a small world" became Encanto, the way I see it.
RIP To Splash Mountain
I miss this ride
We all do…
Recently went on Splash Mountain in Tokyo.
Still the world’s best theme park ride.
Removing it from the US parts is a travesty.
This hits differently now
10:36 That's sadly something you can't hear anymore. Disney appears to have given up on the Million Dollar Bunny around mid-2021, and they also don't play that audio clip anymore.
I never got a chance to ride it when I went to Disneyland since I was too focused on the Space Mountain and other space rides but when I watched the POV ride about it? I guess it looks fun lol.
Keep the one in magic kingdom. If they retheme it it won’t make sense in location. Plus I love the ride
How about a Pocahontas ride in MK’s Frontierland? That fits better
SuperLOLBrothers yeah that sounds better but I know they won’t do something like that
Well, DSNY Newscast made a video about how it could fit in MK. How about make a New Orleans Street mini land between Adventureland and Frontierland and just build a new path for Big Thunder Mountain. And Pecos Bill’s Tall Tale Inn Cafe can be rethemed into Tiana’s place. Now question, what does it mean for the Country Bear Jamboree? Well, keep the exit but build a wall, covering the restaurant. And build the New Orleans Street sign right next to Tiana’s Place. BAM! Good solution!
SuperLOLBrothers that’s actually a great idea I hope they decide to do something like that
Also forgot to mention that they can relocate the ride’s entrance and just keep the area between Splash and Thunder for the MK Railroad
The difference between the splash mountain music at wdw and dl is that wdw’s music has more of a southern music theme because they wanted to make the music fit the ride style and dl’s splash mountain’s music was made more to fit the area of dl it’s located in. Personally the dl version of the song is better. I suggest the person reading this comment goes and listens to the dl version of the song
It was a zip a dee do dah day while it lasted
Those 10 dislikes are all the people who hate this ride and think it’s racist
I liked
Jayden Crist good!
@@bartplays3392 the ride isnt racist its bacicly a fox and bear trying to catch a rabbitlol
Jayden Crist yeah ik!
@@bartplays3392 the log wont let tiana finish the ride the log wants to break and crash to stop tiana ride
Goodbye Splash Mountain, it'll always be a zippidy do da day to us WDW riders.
The melody is the only non catchy song that I like (though I like everything catchy)
I think the voice acting and the music put together makes this all sound like a Rocko’s Modern Life or Catdog type of show.
14:53 lmao 😂
I’m gonna miss it❤
Me Too. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Rode this ride at Disney World back in 2006. Going to be sad when it gets re-themed. 😢
That banjer sounds good
I just can't believe Twitter can just change whatever they want ,this is just ridiculous
it ain't gone yet! let's enjoy it while we still can.
EVERYONE SAVE THIS RIDE IT DOESN"T NEED A RETHEME
The retheme is sad but just like Brer Rabbit said it’s time to be moving along….
Jess Harnell did a pretty good job as the voice of Brer Rabbit. Not too simple to just make us just hear Wakko Warner, yet not too exaggerated and over the top to point of being considered racist (unlike Song of the South). I’m gonna miss this ride, although I am curious as to how the Princess and the Frog layout is gonna be like
Same here since usually my personal favorite Disney movies from that era the Princess and the Frog is from are Winnie the Pooh 11' and Big Hero 6 imo but I am fond of that movie too since what I like about it is that they got one of my favorite Gargoyles voice actors Keith David (*who's the voice of Goliath.) to voice the villain of that movie named Dr. Facilier.
It’s a shame Disney only wants money. That’s probably why their changing it. Farewell Splash Mountain😢
Oh no.
Anyway.
R.I.P splash Mountain and it’s music theme 😭 thanks to Tianas new ride 😡
Olivia and Pinocchio are falling in love and best friends forever and ever

This is the world now. People get what they want by crying about it.
