This attraction is an insult to Splash Mountain and the Imagineers who designed it. It is insult to The Princess and the Frog, and the animators who brought it to life. It is an insult to true Disney fans. Finally, it is an insult to Walt Disney’s vision with what Disneyland and his theme parks represent.
Boomer mentality
It is a insult unto it self
We had it better. I feel bad for kids that go today and get this half-assed experience.
You do know Tony Baxter came back to consult on this ride?
@@ForrestFox626and left before it was finished
Had a lady on X say "You older people are just bitter, my kids never rode Splash Mt and will love Tiana". I replied, "Sure, and if your kids never eat real food and only grew up on processed GMO foods, they wouldn't know what they were missing either". The corn syrup generation.
Yeah I basically got told "well this ride just isn't for you" ... exqueeze me? I don't doubt that some kids will bond with Tiana more so than "Critters" but to simply pass it off as "this is the IP my kid actually knows" is quite silly. Their kid would have loved Splash Mountain too, absolutely guaranteed.
Oooh, burn!
@@Mike__B I actually have a soft spot in my heart for Princess and the Frog, being Disney's last hand-drawn film. They gutted the F out of it, removing half of the story and the villain entirely! They weren't interested in making a proper PatF ride, they were more interested in appeasing George Floyd protester types by removing Splash Mountain.
@@stevenedwards8353 I feel like that's part of the problem, is they didn't bring the story to the ride, they brought some of the characters and tried to tell a story (failed miserably mind you) but people want Princess and the Frog, not some random piecemeal story featuring Louisiana Tiana and the Temple of Salt.
Even in a void its simply not very good. It's boring with a ton of empty space, no story to speak of, and forgettable songs that weren't even in the movie that was the most unwatched Disney animated movie in a long time.
So even in a void its bad, but when they tore down the most popular ride in the world to make it, it becomes 10x worse.
The mountain ranges of the bayou are beautiful this time of year.
That's because anyone can create anything in their imaginations! 😂
I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure that there are no big hills in a bayou. 😂 This ride looks so boring and soulless.
There aren't any big hills in a bayou. I've been to Louisiana many times. I had relatives who used to live in Shreveport. Bayous are basically swamps.
@@susanboatman7913PLEASE no offense and this is the opinion of most people south of Baton Rouge. I was born and lived in New Orleans for 35 years. Shreveport is not Louisiana it’s more east Dallas. They don’t get many Saints games they get Cowboy games. But you are right no hills in the swamps. 👍🏻
@jarrett2209 I've been to New Orleans many times. I used to spend time on my grandparents' farm in Mississippi during the summer and would go to New Orleans.
Now they are saying "its make believe" to hide the fact that they messed up when making the decision to make a mountain in the bayou. Pixie dusters gonna dust
So Disney's Swamp Mountain is inaccurate...shame...shame...shame...
I dislike being able to so clearly see parts of the old Splash like the red rockwork, how do you expect me to forget something else was there before when it’s so blatant?
They didn't even try to make it look like a salt mine.
My wife saw a preview and said "where is Tiana's story on this ride?"... she has a point.
Where is her dress at that’s what im kinda bummed out about
Everyone that gets in line should sing Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah
That's what I've been saying! Also if your at the park listening to the Dapper Dan's request that song!
I can’t even handle the drop and still always loved Splash… as well as SoTS AND TPaTF. Both good films with characters that I love. I would probably be tempted to get in line if I knew people were doing this. I’d duck out before boarding the ride itself but I would so be there to sing “Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah”.
@@davidmacias741
Are they even still allowed to sing it? I heard the song got completely removed from the parks?
Badly missed opportunity to do something great with Tiana's story. This is an insult to nearly everyone.
I 100% agree! I had high hopes for this new ride but unfortunately, I agree with Bob Iger himself about the experience. He said the ride is completely lackluster and incredibly boring. I feel that the storyline as well as the new music falls flat and the Imagineers totally missed the mark for this.... Stick to the original story and plot, keep the iconic villain with the music and songs we already know and love! It's getting universally panned everywhere because it is not better than the previous ride, nor even equal to Splash Mountain, and it is essentially a downgrade for most. This new upgraded version of Wilderness Tiana gathering vegetables and spices feels like a very bad sequel we never asked for or wanted, which ultimately ends up going straight to Disney+ or home video.
@@laurad2442 Yeah Imagine going up before the big drop and hearing "Are You Ready?" while the little voodoo dolls pop in and out. Could of been an epic last drop that could of been even better than Splash mountain, but instead they gave us this bland and boring version of Princess And The Frog.
Bring back Splash Mountain!!!!!
Can we talk about how Frontierland is ruined? I don’t mind the whole New Orleans jazz aesthetic, just not THERE.
As someone from Louisiana who's culture they are leeching off of to get rich ... yes I'm bitter they put it there too. I said that from the go. They can't change frontier land to Nola. It's not even laid out properly to make it a Nola square. Nola's layout is very close quarters and has French architecture NOT British colonial.
I could make a long list of screw ups but I think I'll hold back. Ugh smh
I made the comment of turn splash mountain into the Western River Expedition. But no, no, no had to do New Orleans to bring in Mardi Gras and copy every other theme park and ultimately do a subpar version of what Universal does. Had to not do research into the history of that area. Had to not put forth a good story that even represents the original movie.
New Orleans Square is technically a separate land from frontier land, and splash mountain is technically in critter country, New Orleans square was designed off of study photos and trips to New Orleans by Walt himself, he had a fascination for the city, The new Tiana ride would actually have to be annexed into New Orleans square to keep with the theme
@@erndoggy13 For Disneyland yes not Disney World.
@@erndoggy13in WDW there’s no critter country or New Orleans square. There’s just Liberty Square and Frontierland, which is where Splash Mountain was.
I watched song of the south today and it’s a masterpiece, I do not understand how it’s framed as problematic.. it’s set in a time period where characters such as the people portrayed in that movie would have existed. Uncle Remus is a gentle guardian figure who is respected by the family of the kids very much. He is wise and optimistic and try’s to teach all the children how to navigate life around their oppressors. In no way did the film glorify slavery or make light of a bad situation, it was a story retold through a character that best depicted the real person from whom the stories originated. I don’t see anything wrong with that at all, the stories are some of the best moral wise I’ve ever heard from a Disney film.
One thing I heard about the movie that was problematic was that it takes place in a plantation and if you know history that was a bad time for African-Americans that was the only issue with the movie everything else was fine
@@animezilla4486 "If you know history" you are literally a walking Norm Macdonald punchline. Do you think that we're supposed to erase all the parts of history where something bad happened to somebody? Because if we did, all of history would be forgotten. Maybe that's what your side really wants.
animezilla4486, it's set during reconstruction, after the Civil War and after slavery had been outlawed. So, if you know history, you know they were free to come and go as they please. Both James Baskett and Hattie McDaniel said they wouldn't have been a part of the movie if it harmed or demeaned their race.
@DrewHall-un8sn Just being objective here. I... HATE... what they did to Splash Mountain. As for the continuation of this discussion...
Reconstruction also had what was known as "Indentured Servitude." Think slavery but without the physical abuse. A person had to pay their way to freedom via seven years (more or less) of serving the family. That is what led to Jim Crowe in the South.
With that said, "Song of the South" is not "problematic" as the left would call it... and neither was Splash Mountain.
We own a copy of Song of the South also, and I still scratch my head on why people are so offended. Spot on how Uncle Remus was caring and a story teller to the kids who loved him.
Media has a problem with this but not with a ride like Mr.Toad where you get drunk at a bar, drive home drunk go to jail and get sent to hell. And everyone thinks that's good clean family entertainment? 🤔🤔
"Pixie Dusters" are in the business equivalent of an abusive relationship. No matter how badly Disney treats them as customers, they'll stay attached, and view any bit of gratification as kindness; i.e. cupcakes.
Exactly they also rabidly defend anything Disney does and get aggressive when Disney is criticized in any way. It’s weird because Disney isn’t even paying them yet they still shill for Disney.
I've not been in an abusive relationship, but I have been in something akin to it, and I can see why people have such a hard time leaving: You don't want to lose what you initially fell in love with, and moreso when you don't have anything to fall back on. There is only one Disney, and there was only one Evermore. The people, the experiences, the memories, they become a part of you, and to lose that is like losing your best friend, or a close family member.
So instead you find yourself compromising just to make it work, and often falling victim to gaslighting. People will tell you the ugly truths, and you may know it already, but you still love the good bits and often times a blind hope things will get better is all you have riding on until the rug finally gets pulled out from under you. Then comes various degrees of withdrawal and copium, doing anything you can to get back into the good graces just so you feel like you have that piece of your life back. If you're lucky like I was, you'll be blacklisted and forced to wander the desert for 40 years until it runs out of your system, then you can turn around and build something better for yourself and others. But not everyone is that lucky, and the mental hold something like this has on a person leaves them completely vulnerable...
Stockholm Syndrome...
@@Andrew-nh5zg That has more to do with being kidnapped, and growing attached to your captor. Pixie Dusters can come and go as they please.
@@Purplesubmariner Well, unlike people, you don't have to completely abandon a brand. Walt Disney and his legacy are still important parts of world history. They made even more milestones in the 90's Renissance. The Disney brand isn't inherently abusive. It's the people running it, i.e. Iger and his crew.
Tiana converted a salt mine to a garden? How did she get sunlight down in there?
Mushrooms for the gumbo
It was converted? What’s with all the “Salt mines reserved for seasoned veterans” signs then?
What grows in salt?
Salt kills plants.
Maybe it ties into that American Society of Magical Negros thing? lol
Moss mountain looks like crap!
With mold on top, for garnish
It's not even real. Splash Mountain is alive and well in the US.
Worse than I imagined.
Chocolate mountain
Ch-ch-ch-CHIA!
Should have left it alone !
Let's all go to the laughing place, the laughing at this mistake.
That bayou is way different then the ones I have seen🤔
Dude, this ain't no bayou at all, it ain't no Florida marsh either, that my friend is the septic tank
I used to ride Splash Mountain when it had water. It was great. Sad that I have to say that in the past tense now.
Might as well go drive down to a real bayou. Kids today are being robbed of amazing experiences we had as kids.
There are some good animatronics and effects. But it’s undeniable the old Splash Mountain songs were leagues better. Zip-a-Dee-Do-Dah was an Oscar winning song for god’s sake. Judging from the new ride videos it’s nonstop Zydeco.
The shrink to frog size section is clever, but does it make sense in terms of the ride story aside from it was in the movie? If that’s the case, why not work in Dr. Facilier and give the ride some edge.
Then there’s the water. In all the videos it looks like they really cranked up the swamp/bayou theming to make it an ugly muddy brown. Who looks at that and still wants to be splashed by it?
How do vegetables grow on top of a salt mine? Wouldn’t the soil be toxic or too salted for growth?
Actually, no.
The Avery Island/McIlhenny mine DisneyCo visited in their “research” is covered by a deep layer of fertile silt deposited by the Atchafalaya River.
That’s why even with the salt, they can still grow enough Tabasco chili peppers to supply sauce worldwide.
No logic was applied in the creation of this ride.
@@edwardleemiller-eo8jp is that specific to those kinds of peppers, or did they find other vegetables can grow too? Not trying to argue, just curious.
@@Go_n_shogi- unknown, but I would bet dollars to pesos that anything else would grow just as well.
Grab a US map and draw a straight line from Galveston Texas to Biloxi Mississippi.
Almost all the land area south of that line is alluvial sediment, created over thousands of years of river silt deposits.
The other piece of good news is in bald cypress trees, which have a unique property of being able to both store and release fresh water, helping to ward off salt intrusion. If an area becomes too saline, they will release fresh water back into the environment.
One of the reasons that we’re losing coastal marshlands to erosion and saltwater intrusion is because of the cypress lumber boom of the late-1800s/early 1900s. Whole bayous were clear cut for the timber market, and without the trees, the surrounding marsh grasses died off.
@@Go_n_shogi- most of south Louisiana is extremely fertile because of river silt and fertilized farm runoff from the Bread Basket states.
Plus bald cypress have a unique ability of releasing fresh water back into the environment when the groundwater becomes too saline.
I wish they would have done kuzcotopia instead! I'm so glad that Tokyo Disneyland has splash mountain still!
That is genius. I also like Moana as the theme
Think about the placement though. Between New Orleans Square and Frontierland. While ENG would be perfectly suited to Splash’s old ride track, the theming just doesn’t go with either of those lands.
I’ll be honest. I’m happy that this ride isn’t getting good reception. I didn’t anticipate any good reviews and I’m not surprised most people don’t like it. Lots of people aren’t even going to give this ride a chance. If Big thunder closes for heavy maintenance and refurbishment, which I know is on the Horizon, people may just skip Frontierland as a whole
From Drews X account. "I have a new favorite attraction, and that attraction is Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. ❤" Yep definetly not a shill.
Yikes
Splash mountain was popular so it was labeled problematic and needed to be replaced. Disney hates America.
Disney hates America ? I think that maybe a little bit overboard
Sadly Main Street USA will be replaced. Can’t have an idyllic version of white America welcoming you to the park.
They called it racist ,
So they use a black woman from the bayou
Which is more racist
@@gizmonovack
Idk if that’s necessarily racist in and of itself. A person could be any color and live near a bayou. But I have been saying for some time now that I’ve found this to be problematic because SoTS is actually not the “racist” film that so many mistake it for, while poor Tiana was actually the first Princess to face such a rough treatment on the way to getting her wish granted in her film (worked two nine-to-fives to save up, still was about to get cheated by two “white” guys, gets turned into and has to spend most of the movie as a very small animal, loses a good friend, etc)… It seemed to me like she went through more undeserved heck than any other Disney Princess before her. So when Disney announced that they would be retheming Splash to PatF, I immediately realized that they were using the “it’s racist” narrative to turn everyone against SoTS… just so they could at least make this a bit… “worse”. I knew it would be bad… but I didn’t know how bad. And the “salt mine” theme does not help.
So that is what I feel is worse here, aside from how much they mucked up Tiana and her story or how unpopulated the ride looks.
Anything black is racist.
A definite sad replacement for the Great Splash mountain!
If you want to destroy Disney, focus all your energy on the salt mines part of this ride. If Splash Mountain was problematic because its Uncle Remus source material was from the Reconstruction period in the South (when all slaves were already freed) then how is it okay to have an actual salt mine (where slaves were forced to work) in a ride? Someone should fund a campaign to get people educated about this and petition Disney to tear it all down and start over.
Amazing, excellent point, that I too, was wondering about!
That brown water look like the bathrooms are overflowing.
Poor Louis must had some serious Diarrhea from being in this attraction
@@naturalistwarrior Nah, it was Te Fiti
Tiana's Diarrhea Adventure
Looks like water from a septic tank! Why would Diseny think people would enjoy getting splashed with doody brown water???😂
@@SirBuzz 🤣
Sadly,this new ride is an insult to the intelligence of consumers.
In what way
animezilla4486, because it neither reflects the movie it was based on and appears to be a huge swing and a miss in what could have been. The ride would have been a perfect fit if styled along Jungle Cruise or Pirates. Instead they took a popular ride and didn't make it better, or even as good, as what they replaced. Even worse they missed an opportunity to add capacity to the park. So in the new Disney business model, pay more get less.
Thank you, I couldn't have said that better@@DrewHall-un8sn
I love that Disney has become so woke that even Dr. Facilier is too edgy for them. South Park called it.
It's sad Princess and the Frog is tied to this. It was the last Disney animation I enjoyed.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of guys. 😂😂😂
Walt Disney courted influencers since the early days of Disneyland. After the initial negative reviews of Disneyland, he wined and dined some local reporters and asked them to come back in the evening. Then reviews appeared urging people to visit Disneyland during the evening, where it was less crowded and looked better at night.
Of course, the "influencers" in those days were reporters. Since we don't have those anymore, RUclipsrs and bloggers will have to do.
Disney will double down. They always do. I predict however that once the summer season is over they will close the ride and dump a hundred million of improvements on it.
They won’t if their stocks keep tanking.
Oh I'm sure!!!
They'll add some animatronics, and then embezzle the rest.
They won’t double down anymore once there’s a hostile takeover and I’ll be a part of that future leadership but this time under my leadership, the spirit of Walt will be back.
Everyone just needs to keep calling it what it was.. Splash Mountain.
Universal is kicking Disney's ass and it ain't stopping anytime soon!
I wonder if the negative feedback on this ride will affect the Disneyland version since it’s still under construction.
That's what I was just wondering, as in...
"STOP THE CONSTRUCTION!!! HOLD IT, guys... Trouble City!"
(Construction gets paused for lengthy amount of time and sits remaining unfinished)
I understand their reason why they wanted to replace Splash Mountain 🏔️ due to the slavery connection… but then they created a salt mine in a Louisiana setting. Salt mines, especially the one Disney modeled this after which is Avery Island, this is known for brutal slavery practices. So we replaced one attraction due to slavery connections with this new ride, which has slavery connections. 🤦♂️ - can someone please explain the logic to Disneys decision?
So, have all the real, true Imagineers retired? This is the best the current crop of Imagineers can do? Did they soak up NONE of the magic and experience of the older and more experienced Imagineers???? Time to coax the old timers out of retirement. Oh well, at least there's beignets. Zipadeedoodah!
I definitely agree with WDW Pro I think what Disney has done to splash mountain is absolutely unacceptable I feel like you and me should have a conversation about it
When I see a mostly barren waterway, the first thing I think of is Southern cuisine. It's clearly Tiana's Foods!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂lol
Where’s the food ?
So even pumping up water 40ft and letting it run down a slide is now already too much to ask from a *water* *ride?*
wtf.
Disney doesn't realize how badly they have messed up. People have gone to Disney for Splash mountain. But will they do the same for Tiana? I doubt it. Tiana may end up as just another log flume ride.
Log flume rides tend to be nice to have rides for most themeparks. While they may be popular, they are not the prime reason to visit this particular themepark. Think about your favorite non Disney themepark. Chances are that the log flume ride is not the main reason to visit this particular themepark.
Tiana will most likely end up as just another log flume ride with some impressive animatronics.
Splash mountain is not the only thing people go to Disneyland don't get me wrong it sucks that it got removed
@@animezilla4486 liar
@@homeboy_roy1570 🙄Why are you calling them a liar for? It's true. There are other rides in Disneyland besides Splash Mountain that people go to.
@@annien.1727 liar
@@homeboy_roy1570 😡Hey, don't call me a liar! I would never lie about such things!
Should have been a Moana ride. Fits frontier and adventure. Make me CEO.
Splash Mountain for the win!
In a park that has massive capacity issues, you'd think expansion instead of reskins would be preferred.
Imagine if they'd left Splash alone, but instead made a New Orleans expansion behind Big Thunder (or anywhere along the Rivers of America).
You could have 2-3 brand new original rides back there, quick and even full service dining options (think NOLA Square at Disneyland), a jazz band (or incorporate that with the dining), "marti gras" celebrations.
And now, imagine that you could ride the riverboat to NOLA as well, if they build a dock.
The theming options are endless.
Instead...we got...this mess.
Disney should sell the US parks to OLC and just collect the royalties. OLC does not change rides based on complaints online by 2 or 3 people.
It’s such a silly ridiculous flex the Disney flex. It’s like look at me on social media I spent over 6 grand to stay on the galactic starcruiser aren’t I something special. Such a ridiculous flex
So let me get this straight. A ride featuring salt mines, where slaves worked, is okay. A ride that features a rabbit in a briar patch is problematic and racist though simply because it’s associated with a movie that had a slave in it. Ummm okay. Am I missing something? How is Tiana’s Bayou Adventure okay when it’s featuring salt mines! A place where slavery was an actual thing!
Song of the South was set YEARS after slavery was ended.
Uncle Remus was NOT a slave!!! He was a free man!!
Brave of Disney to leave comments turned on.
The soundtrack for this ride reminds me of an old Rankin-Bass production that didn't take off.
No way disney will change this back. They dont give a damn about popular opinion.
Tiana's Bayou Adventure of 2024 is a newer version of Disney's California Adventure of 2001. Disney's 2nd theme park in Anaheim was so mediocre, even Six Flags might have embarrassed to put its name on it. However, over 20 years ago, the Disney Co at least wasn't as obnoxiously political as it is today. That's why the Tiana ride originates more from a nasty DEI/ESG streak while DCA was more from a nasty cheapskate streak. But both are/were the result of very lousy judgment.
But this will only continue while shareholders like Larry Fink's BlackRock force big businesses like Disney to produce this Ma.rx.ist garbage via ESG scoring. It's no longer about the consumer anymore.
The madness will only continue as long as shareholders like BlackRock force Ma-rx-ist D-E-I into everything.
It annoys me how they stopped fixing dca after cars land and buena vista street. They did have plans to fix the rest of dca yet stopped. I assume it was because they didn’t want to put in the money and effort to fix it since “people will come regardless”.
Also it annoys me how they always say they aren’t able to add more because the lack of land here. But yet they waste the land they currently have. For example they could have put an amazing land where Pixar pier sits yet they doubled down and gave it a cheap re theme.
Avengers campus and web slingers was what really made me lose hope, as Disney hyped us up for it and then it turned out to be cheap lazy garbage. My trust in Disney died that day 😂. They haven’t even started construction on the avengers e ticket that they have been promising us for almost 5 years now
I may be the last fan standing, but I loved the original DCA, and cried when they tore down its best features. The do-over was, IMHO, worse than the original.
That’s par for the course here, where the original had flaws but the do-over stinks.
It has nothing to do with dei
Sounds like Tiana's Bayou Adventure is a Zippity-DON'T-dah ride!
The Tragic Kingdom
Tragic? More like "Shit Kingdom" is more like cuz look at the water
You said it perfectly!!!!!!
If you want to link my vlog....I have shot after shot of the ride Operating with NO WATER on the drop. I couldn't believe they were running it for cast in that condition!
Is it just me, or did they really chunk Tiana up in her animatronic?
She can’t be too skinny, that’s offensive. 🤡
You mean chunked her up in Belle's retrofitted animatronic.
They built it based on the average Black woman’s height and weight ,so apparently this ride is even more racist than splash mountain
@@Jaruzelsk Don't forget the new slavery salt mine queue for this ride.
They were too cheap to make a custom model to they reused a Bell model from beauty and the beast
How in the hell do you have a flume ride with no water?
You’re an outstanding RUclips channel.
my wife is japanese she loves splash mountain, after seeing this she said this new ride is boring
They are making Sig Flags Magic Mountain look good in comparison.
I may be alone on this but i seriously love the swamp bucket ride. Ray was the best character and the majority of this ride is his song. Everything else about the ride sucks, but that song. I love it. I'm sure the kids are gonna love it even more
You can't open splash mountain if it got no water nooooo waaaater? Noooo water!
I think the reason why Doctor Faciliar wasn't there is that even the Shadow Man himself didn't want to hop in on the ride cuz he knew it would be a big waste of time.
His friends on the other side protected him this time around.
@@altarush Atleast he's safe from Disney's modernizing campaign, his friends were here to protect him the whole time
'Cause I love that dirty water.
Ooh, oh, Bayou, you're my home, oh, yeah!
The singer: *Procedes to drink the dirty water*
Gators don’t mind.
I dont think the pixie dusters could have changed minds on this....
I like The Princess and the Frog. I’m disappointed by this ride. How could they do this?
Splash Mountain was my favorite ride at Disneyland but I remained hopeful since The Princess and the Frog is one of my favorite Disney movies.
Since they were replacing such a beloved ride they really needed to bring their A game. Go above and beyond. The concept art of the outside with the boat in the tree was an amazing start.
I've seen it..... It's boring, nothing special.....Splash Mountain was fun and exciting....this is woke thing is boring, the storyline sucks .... boring
What's woke about it
Bad movies go away, Bad rides stay for decades
Yeah, a bad live-action remake of a beloved classic is one thing but that original classic is still available to watch at the end of the day.
Never thought that Disney wouldn’t trust the Disney blogger to be out in front to defend the ride almost like they betrayed them bc they had no confidence in the bob iger defenders than again it be interesting what other content can they find since Disney did they’re job for them.
WDW PRO, I personally love it that Disney Parks put out that POV of Tiana before every Disney vlogger out there could get the chance. As a WDW AP myself we love going to the parks but the vloggers have ruined the experience. We watch a few of the ones who have been around for a while, and still enjoy the content, but the amount of new daily vloggers that have popped up over the last few years is ridiculous I hope Disney continues to debut New attractions first on their parks Channel.
Keep up the good work. I Love the channel as you guys are finally telling it like it is. 👍👍

That thing is no Rainforest Cafe, as the most iconic one is in Chicago.
So the salt-mine is where the tears of the public collect? That's... actually poetic.
Imagine being sort of the creative team behind this and thinking you just made a masterpiece. 😂😂😂😂😂. Not only did they destroy one of the greatest rides ever made, they also took a dump right on Tiana’s face
You said it perfectly!!!!! I am really sick about Splash Mountain being gone. Just TRAGIC!!!!!!!!!!The MAGIC is gone!!!
A ride so good they could make a movie about it
Threw them under the bus? Don't you mean under the log?
The video is a "Full Ride P.O.V."? More like a "Full ride P.O.S."
It's a toilet cam.
@@SirBuzzthe inside of the ride is just the septic tank's interior
Ooof. 35K:9.7K now. The fact it's only been seen 500K times is telling in and of itself. The ratio is epic. This is an extinction-level event.
Another reason to not include a salt mine in there, aside from the fact that it's historically been a place where you send unfree labor to be worked to death: Salt is HORRIBLE for plants. It's why salt marshes tended to not get converted into farmland, and why it was tradition since ancient times to 'salt the land' of somebody you wanted to STAY defeated--it's actually rather difficult to restore the farmland to usability. Converting a salt mine into a vegetable garden? LOLNOPE. (Coal mines make good mushroom farms, I hear.)
My theory is that they keep this atrocity open thru summer, and then the fire alarms and ride issues get blamed for closing. They reopen in 10-11 months plussed, and one clear story is pulled from the 3 options we're at now.
Salt is toxic to most plants. Would anything grow in a salt mine? As tenacious as plant life is, I’ve never seen any green in a salt mine.
Disney doesn’t do research.
I saw a few rave reviews from the usual suspects. So gross. Someone should tell them that it ruins credibility.
Salt mines, they really went there?! Wow.
How TBA could have been GOOD (and there was a chance!). Assume that aliens stole the old Splash Mountain features and you are just left with the basic ride movement...
You make it a new adventure... not some silly hot sauce factory. Dr. Facilier, perhaps with a crossover character like Hades, has stolen the stars from the skies along with our favorite fireflies. You travel through cartoon Hell as our heroes defeat him. The last step is to return the stars and then you 'fall' from the sky on the milky way river.
Is the above Shakespeare? No. But I knocked it off in just five minutes.
Drew blocked me when i said Tiana was bad
Aren’t the videos also getting copyrighted for the music because it’s not in RUclips’s system and flagging videos.
Yeah. If I were a Disney RUclipsr/influencer? And had access clearance/invites?
I would be highly ticked.
I rode it yesterday in between down times. Maybe it'll grow on me, but it was pretty meh. The main character animatronics were well done but the story wasn't clear. The ride mechanism was the same, so it was just as good as before.
Um... I realize that I barely completed one semester towards an engineering major before changing over to education, but... removing water from a section of a ride that's meant to always be drenched in water... isn't that going to put undue wear on parts and things and cause them to fail prematurely? I'm pretty sure that's a safety risk. Just a hunch, but that looks o me like an accident waiting to happen. They didn't change how the ride functions or how it works, and that ride was designed by MUCH SMARTER people to run with a LOT MORE water, and that water serves a purpose in how the ride functions. Removing or limiting the water is NOT a good thing without completely redesigning the ride! Think of trying to run a humidifier with the water below the minimum fill line and how much damage that can do to a little $20 machine. Now multiply that in scale and cost for this ride just to get you close to the ballpark on how bad this can be! Seeing what Disney has done to this ride trying to minimize the splash on a WATER ride... um... you couldn't PAY me enough money to ride that death trap!
Drew wouldn’t have the access he’s given if he weren’t a shill
I rode it. If you are a new guest who has no clue, you will enjoy this log ride. Everyone else will always feel ripped off.
Tiana’s ride reminds me of Colombia and not the awesome French quarters of the Big Easy! What I know, I have been there six times for the international World War II conferences.
They could have upgraded the og animatronics or added new stuff in splash mountain instead of Tina’s bayou
Song of the south ride is racist so let’s turn it into a ride about a black girl from the bayou which is a racist stereotype thinking that most people from bayou are black ,
So the new theme is more racist than the original splash mountain that only uses animals characters
Quick question for Disney: Do you know what 'salted earth' means? Because I guarantee growing vegetables in salty soil would be a waste of god damn time.
Is it normal to see all the maintenance access (stairs, safety hand rails etc...) on the sides or will they cover them up eventually? it kinda destroys the immersion, if that was a concern to begin with.
I was thinking, If the problem was "song of south" movie"... making a "modern" remake with the cartoons "cast" only...are a better and cheaper alternative than rebrand Splash mountain 😅 this probably was a better solution to silence the woke mob
Well there was nothing racist about the ride at all. 🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ I mean sure , cancel the movie and eliminate the performance of the first black man to win an Oscar. 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
They’d probably argue that anything associated with the film is too problematic to be rehabilitated. Remember a few months ago when they found even the name “Laughing Place” as the name of a park problematic just because it was from the film.
Even now they’d say Brer Rabbit is a metaphor for a slave. Even if he wins in the end, can’t depict that!
Why does everything need to be modernized? In this horrible and chaotic world, it is still nice to remember the sweet and clean Disney movies and rides in the parks.
@@michaelschroeck2254 I'm not necessarily saying doing a remake is the best solution (you're right about the film having historical importance)...but I mean...they argued that the film being "problematic" was the reason for renaming Splash... I'm just saying that theoretically it would be easier and cheaper to make a new film than to destroy a beloved attraction 😅
Believe it or not, while "Song of the South" may be seen by some as racist, the children in the film loved Uncle Grempus as they did with their white mother. But it was the mother whom was judgemental towards the African American Uncle and that's where the segregation lies. But, it's histrocial accurancy to let people know what life was like in the 1800s. And the cartoon characters was just another story combined into Uncle Grevis's (or Grempus's) story combined. And while Walt Disney knew the film he was adapting would be similar to how "Gone with the wind" was, it is techinically one of the first/few animated movies to combine live actors with animated characters. And personally, seeing these children love the stories their african american uncle was telling them and having a blast staying with the uncle, that would be splendid to visit every week. But because of the time period, yeah, those kids had to do it in secret until their mother didn't like it and took them away. And to be honest, it's quite sad how the african americans were treated back in the day. So if Walt Disney Pictures ever re-releases the original, they have to put an acknowledgement+disclaimer that the film was made around the time segregation of african americans and white americans were still a thing in the americas (mostly in the south part of the US but thankfully not in the north, aka the union side of things. Although they too had some issues but it wasn't as severe as the south did, but that's just me when it comes to US History in the 1800s). So I see the film as just genuine fun with references to segregation and racism in a film that's just made for fun and entertainment, and not to be taken waaayy too seriously in the long run. There's only been a few releases of that film (and yet "The Black Cauldron" is also in the same boat as "Song of the South" believe it or not)....Seeing this attraction though, it's quite sad they would remove one thing from the past that was held onto by those who grew up with the old films in the past, and pretty much removing anything that was from the mid 20th century...Quite sad if you ask me.
The goal was not to make a better attraction, the goal was to make the wokest attraction they could.
I'm wondering how this fakery, of Tiana, having nothing to do with The Princess and the Frog"??? ; is ridiculous stupid"wokeness"; WHY, is she rumaging around, in a Jungle Cruise outfit, if she's a "Princess". I am so done with this ruining of a MASTERPIECE ride, that I worked on, as an artist! I can't stop crying at this Masterpiece of art and Animation, being junked, for this JUNK!!!!! Do you know how if feels to have your art, destroyed???? Back then, we all thought this would be around forever, without being defiled or touched, like so many other Attractions that are preserved, timelessly.
We may not have the biggest, baddest channel, but we refuse to bend the knee to Disney, or to anyone for that matter.
